Air Compressor Emergency Backup / Pods

[heinz wittenbecher]

When I was running with my "pod" I used 2 safety straps around the whole
pod. One in the forward 3rd and one in the middle. I used the quick clip
ones, so they were easy to do/undo. Don't know if there were needed but made
me feel better ;-)

Hi Scott.

On the agenda.
Been wanting/waiting to buy a new webcam (wireless), but it's not available
yet. I hate it when it's in the catalog and not in stock. Don't those folks
know that kids don't like to wait for new toys
