No I didn't. I removed the instructions so new users would use the new system. Guest FTP is NOT secure as we have found out again. From now on, users who want to use the old system must PM me for a password. Last night someone deleted all the files in the ftp folder. I have restored them from backup. That is getting to be a pain and while I have the IP address of the dumbass, I don't want to have to spend all my time restoring files.I have no access to it Kenny. Tim took it off the board.

Thats very nice indeed-tidy and intricate-one thing doing it once--but having to make it repeatable--that cool!

Ron, you take a break for building or just posting?
It's not who you are, but what you do that defines you.

Re: Scratchbuilding USCGC DUANE 1943
Hi Guys, I have been working on the 5 inch 51,s
WEM did not have any of the above so I have had to modify there 4 inch 50,s.
The first thing to do was cut a barrel to size

The barrel was cut off and the rest was drilled out to take the new barrel, this was glued in place.
