Ya TJB, my design is like yours in that the user hand-cranks pedals sticking out of the tub, though i think the giradora design is better becasue in that it takes the stooping out of stoop labour, i.e., you don't have to lean over to use the device, so it saves on your back. (I guess you could just set it on something waist-high to fix that)
Are you talking about mounting the wash/spin device to a stationary bike?(Y/N) If Y, you could really do some express laundry and get a workout at the same time! =P
I'm still gonna make one probably, and i'll use it for small loads of laundry. thanks for the encouragment

I remember coming up with a great idea for a feature for this but then I forgot about it when I heard the project was cancelled. But one thing that would be good is an option for newly created brushes to be dimensioned relative to the current grid size. As in the fact that when you create a brush, you click and drag in two dimensions, and then Hammer sets the third dimension at 64 units iirc. Gets really annoying when you're zoomed in really far working on complex detailing work and you have to either scroll across to shrink the brush or zoom out until you can see the ends. And I haven't read the blog post yet, as I am late for something, but I will read it as soon as I get back.

If I were to build one of those I would modify the design to be powered by an old bicycle or something. Sitting on it and only using an up-down motion would be tedious as hell. Plus, if you use a rotating pedal design you could easily set it up to be more resistant to motion, and it would excercise more muscles. Anyway CT, you should build one anyway. Don't be disheartened just because you're not the first, if you can't build the first one then build the best one!

High utility! however i don't think your going to build big muscles using this
Also for people who don't own washers/dryers, this could save you ALOT of money in Laundry fees... i spend 10 quid every 2 weeks to wash my clothes(not including detergent and fabric softener).
Big Plus, it's much more environmentally friendly than gas/electric machines, not that many people cbf to worry about stuff like that, but it's pretty cool just the same! =)

Thanks guys, you're all awesome
@Jeff: I think it remembers the dimensions on a per-tool basis, which means that the brush tool might not remember the select tool dimensions yet. I'll have to check it out.
@Tetsu0: If you know C, you've pretty much learned all the major languages. Aside from object oriented stuff which is pretty easy to pick up, C covers pretty much everything in most other popular programming languages. So it might not be too difficult to pick up something else
@CapT: Eventually the plan is to get a proper plugin system going, so brush up on those coding skills

Cool! That takes all the pain out of decals right there! Does Sledge have the ability to remember the dimensions of the last brush selected when using the brush tool, like Hammer 4.x does? Because if it does, I might have to get back into goldsource a bit once you release it.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Would love to know other people's thoughts.
@Rufee any anybody else: Write those ideas down, once I get a stable release going, I'll be asking everybody for feature ideas As Daubster said, it's all written in C#.

I enjoyed reading that =) It's interesting to see what kind of problems there are in implementing something that seems so simple, and how you can overcome them.

Funny how different car makers share models with other car makers in different countries.
Dacias are sold in western Europe as Renault, American Chevrolet models are sold in Europe by Opel, etc. You end up seeing cars you know but with a different brand, it's slightly odd at first.
Dimbark: LOL XD
LOL! TOOK ME SOME TIME TO GET IT! xD
This is just one of mah regular sites, which I open just about every time I open Firefox. And it counts as a login every time ^.^

Also, lol at Dimbark's post.

I however did not and stuck with FL Studio. xD
and yes, macs are horrible x.x
I'm creating game music as well, in logic pro on a mac. Macs are so bad, but I'm somehow managing.

The red Sandero reminds me of the honda crx, my favourite economy car of all-time, though i never owned one.
Rock on PB! =)

Thanks for the shoutout, would deffo read more.

I would actually have a billion ideas on what should be included in it, some stupid some less stupid.
