Went to the big auto show Tuesday with my son, GREAT TIME[
][] I even was able to pick up a pen and think about a new style.
I had to use some scotch tape to hold the spring for the second photo. The click mechanism doesn't always want to work so well after a few flexes, but seems to work better after a few clicks. Pretty cool.[8D] My favorite thing at the show; (well not favorite but very innovative for this simple farm boy)the new Toyota full size pickup has a soft opening tailgate. Pull the latch and let go. The tailgate drops about 3/4 of the way and then slows to a soft landing. Still has cables on the side, must be in the pivot. It also latches as easy as a car door when you shut it. Ford and Chevy better watch out!!
