Ah, Tom, I like your style! We still have to work in the legos though because they're just so much fun! Gustavo seems to be keeping a low profile?? _____ From: bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bksvol-discuss-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of tom hawkins Sent: Friday, February 24, 2006 11:23 AM To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Tired of turning pages? Make your own scanner You guys are cruel ! You shouldn't use anything but the very best silk and rubber bands, that it'll give a little extra bounce to each flip of the pages.

Make your own scanner Donna, the whole process wouldn't be fun otherwise. I was thinking something in the line of leggo mounting block and a boddy flipping machine suspended by using kite string.
