Hi Pat

Have you thought of, putting all the past tech stuff on to cd and selling copies.

You could do one for trike tech and one for bike tech.

I would definetly buy a copy of each, and i bet a lot of other tech lovers on here would as well.

Let's face it the mag's don't last for ever, especialy when you've got all your mates pawing them.

Great mag, think i will have to subscribe, just so i don't miss anymore.

I think it's a real good idea too

That way you wont have to spend ages wading through the mags trying to find "the article, I remember reading, but cannot remember which one its in"

....and more than likely getting side tracked by something completely different :rolleyes:

It would be great to be able to just throw the cd in the big white box, which is stragicly placed in the workshop/bedroom, and read the instructions of the screen instead of ruining our nice pristine copys of 100%.

We would be able to enlarge the pics for a better view as well, very handy.

It wont be possible, there is a lot more to it than you think.
The actually copyright to the articles doesnt belong to us, It belongs to Alik & chris. We only pay for FIRST publishing rights. So when you take into account the fees we'd have to pay the authors, then all the other costs involved in producing it, it really wouldnt be worth all the work because the finished product would have to be sold for more than most would want to pay.
You should lobby Alik to produce a photcopy version that he could flog you. :D
