[QUOTE="Davy Crockett, post: 238094, member: 367"] Good stuff db You have me by 10 years but I think we were 10 years behind times on this side of the mountain and we had the same fun. I remember when they came and took the crank telephone out and put in the rotary dial . our number was 34653 . we had another old crank phone that we used to play with and give shocks when we cranked it. My dad cultured my mind with fun mechanical stuff. He had an old armature tester that could throw a spark about an inch and he taught me how to charge up ignition condensers with it. The shock got weaker as the day went on but I set them on the teachers desk and watch it fly when they picked it up. I taught my boys a lot of the same tricks and then came computers and they were teaching me tricks. [/QUOTE]
