One of the interesting propositions that appears is the ability to use
a I-pad (or similar) right on the workbench when building models.
Assuming some kind of 45 degree mount, it would be better than some
large set of copied plans.
Just a couple of years ago, we talked about scanning all the interesting
pages for our private use. It just proves that some of us are just a
little ahead of the curve in the "wanting" department but somewhat shy
on the follow-up. I wish Kalmbach luck in making this successful, and
perhaps the owners of former magazines (Mainline, RMJ, etc.) will do the
same thing or arrange for it. This is another possible win-win
situation. Hundaman (Mainline) could reap some financial rewards and
serve a whole new mass of readers. I couldn't afford to buy all those
magazines when they were being published not to mention reading them
all--besides we all forget so many things, it would be nice to just
request them from your puter without digging under the layout for all
those boxes.
