Pretty excited this weekend as am finally getting a desk to setup my electronics workshop equipment. Since all the move this will be the time I can get back to Atari HW :)

It has felt like an age.

@exxos was only asking the other day when will the Giant Panda printer be back in business. I need to get another table / cabinet for it before collecting from my parents.

I think you need a big slab of solid concrete, never mind a table :lol:

You two need to stop posting QL stuff before I get even more tempted to buy one.
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.
