You noticed it's the 400th post :)<br />Yes, I don't know how many years have passed by since someone played a Nasalette... but when I play it, I feel like hearing a sound from another age.<br /><br />certainly Carter used a welding iron and not a blowtorch, but apart of that, I didn't used any tool that wasn't in use 120 years ago.
