Joe :lol:

All,
I've received a PM regarding time variations, by the time some Members see the post, it's all over. :|
SO,
As from the next challenge, please send your answers to me as PMs.
That way, we can have multiple correct answers, and nobody will get guided, or misguided by preceding replies. It's a true "Win-win" :lol:

Wee diamonds, like they do in Antarctica? What happens when they melt?

No, Mike. Real diamonds, like what them miners or whatever dig up.

I've got the wing roughed out. Next I have to solder on the "O".. and mount diamond flakes on that part and then some filing deburring, burnishing, and polishing.
And maybe mount a diamond in the center of the "O"

*-) dunno.. haven't decided :dunno:

Edit:

Complete design change

Oh, not again!
The supply of birthdays has faltered.
This was not a high production aircraft, but at this stage, that's all I'm saying.
Submissions to me by PM ONLY please, as mentioned previously, this will allow for multiple badge recipients.
It's also time to introduce the Diamond badge from Joe's jewellery department.
It's not gold, so wrong entries won't get "shot down".
Strap on those observer's goggles:

Hi Mike

It was easy, I only had to look through a gazillion bazillion images on goo guile changing the wording in the search bar.

Not sure what happened in the image I sent in PM.

:dunno: :lol:
