Hi John

Absolutely excellent, its art! as well as science!

One minor observation is that for bone-heads like myself it would be
fairly easy to drop or loose the remove able pin. Would it be possible
to drill a tiny hole at one end of the pin and a similar hole on the
main frame. This would allow a thin cord to tie between the two to
ensure they weren't separated too far but give you enough room to change
positions. See what I mean? I appreciate this may not look as slick but
could be a good practical measure.

As stated before if you're going into production me people know, my wife
wants to know what I want for Christmas! And if you need any guinea-pigs
for road testing, let me know.

Well done one two counts: 1) sheer creativity 2) sheer creativity for
the Newton community.

Kind regards
Andy
