    I need to get some white ink I think, I've only got white string at the moment though.

    White ink isn't great - pretty watery, wears off quickly.

    Why would you want to make your thruster look like a Carlton? :p

    Although he may have a point, no Carlton looks this good.

    White vapour trail slite looks ok (once restring) but I don't see the appeal in the tk9000 so I'm not one to comment.

    Re winning the thread, do I get a voucher, redeemable against a TPK? :)

    Seriously though, white string paint, just no.

    Less whining, more sending it to DuckFeet to test.

    OK, boys - you can all have one third of a set each.

    Well, one quarter, because I need some.

    What half? By the look of it, I was only down for a third now that dbswansea has dropped out.
