I heard a rumour that there is a fork coming out in 35:1 very soon ..



It's just a rumor Warren...unfortunately. ForkMe, of course, wanted to follow up on the success of their legendary "Air Fork One":
(note fine raised molded-on detail on wings, impossible to achieve before the advent of CAD!!!), but with the recent boom in illegal surface strip mining in Botswana (as shown on A+E's tv hit "Jungle Gold") they have opted to go forward with their Lick Yong Mercury Soil De-Contaminator prototype, due mainly to the free publicity. Smart if you ask me.

Of course, you can still craft your own fork from sheet styrene ...but as a word of warning, keep the finished model AWAY from all heat sources as unfortunate melting and disfigurement may occur to your prized replica:


*edit* UPDATE: ForkMe's Radio-Controlled 35:1 Flying Knife (with p/e serrated edges) is being held up pending approval from the ATF. Some concern, apparently, about public safety. What a bunch of pansies eh?
