Alan Ashdown Memorial GB - reference list of GBs he participated in

[JohnRatzenberger]

This is a list of GB's Alan was in, with a link to same.
It is in computer index sequence, which is when a thread is originally opened, newer on top.
I have left off a few where I saw many images missing, OTOH, I have kept a few of same because Splash was always a pleasant read.
Any problems with the links, LMK and I'll fix them up, but TBH you can probably find the GB in the archives.
Enjoy your trip through them, I certainly did while creating the list (except all of my DNF :( )
I got 2-3 ideas, now I need to cull them down.

Of course, his Workbench is a whole other source but has the advantage of being contained in a thread and not scattered around as are GBs, thus the thought this might be of use.

Wow, John. Looks like a huge research project on your part. Thank you. I'll be spending hours looking at those for old times' sake.

David

[PaulBradley]

Cheers, John!

A reminder of all the different types of things he built. Will be a nostalgic little look back at his work.

[ShaunW]

That is a great piece of work for the GB, John and is very useful indeed. Many thanks for your efforts.

[Crashpilot]

Thank you for the work you put in this, John. A good inspiration for the Splash GB, for sure.
