    Just finished my quad bike thingy recently and I'm absolutely delighted. I spent most of the school year worrying about it and I'm so relieved now that it's sorted.

    So, what did people think of it? I thought it was a lot more difficult in comparison to the woodwork project! But then again I don't do woodwork so I wouldn't really know.

    i thought it was ok. 1 of the first finished in my class.:D

    I thought the wiring was very difficult. I soldered myself too many times.:o

    i am looking foward to the day piece:pac:

    Despite being the slowest in class, I got some extra soldering tips from my Dad and I was the second person finished!

    Dreading the day piece. From what I managed to deduce from the teachers instructions I found on the internet, there is no lathework involved.:(

    I'm probably wrong, though!!
