I'm sending Coco a bunch of pics.
I guess as the pics go up I'll add some caps.

I just want to know which 1 of you came up with braids for the trannies.
I can see the theory, but OMG, very very tough!!! :shock:

What fun building though. It's great to have something intelligent to try and do. Ya know that's new :shock:

You mean the braids for the OT? I'm sure that was a recommendation in the first docs I got from Trinity. It's not that hard really...not once you've done a few at least!

I guess that macrame thing in art class back in middle school came in handy after all...

Wait a minute, How old are you :lol:

I grew up with 2 sisters and a mother. There is no way I remember a 4 strand braid. :roll:

And yes, I braided my little sisters hair. No one else would

So I can do a 3, but a 4. Hmmm :shock:

Anyhoo, online had a great video for it and here it is :shock:

My fingers don't work like they used to, but I still got it "OKAY SPANKY"
You'll see on the pics

Can't wait to finish the "Triwatt"

What a great concept.

Cheers

Well, let's just say I've only got a few months over Zeppelin I...

I don't braid the common from the OT. Never been an issue.

Yeah, that 4-wire braiding thing was hard for me to figure out as well. I think I just about managed to figure out how to do it. Kind of reminds me how you're supposed to learn juggling. You start by throwing and catching two balls. Then you add in one more, and then one more.... :lol:

I do my builds slightly differently. I twist the PT wires, and also the OT primary connections together, rather than braiding them. I bring the OT secondary wires directly through the chassis grommets, and then braid them together once inside the chassis.

I had to un-braid the wires. :shock:

Just to get them through the grommet. Then I had to re-braid the wires. Took alot of time :shock:

We all figure out how to build. Such a great thing.

Hey, I got it right
