Yes and he's a very nice chap too Sean – very willing to explain how (and why) he had done certain things.

I had the opportunity to meet him and examine the machine more closely a few years back – at Sandown MEX I think. The 'Stepperhead' articles were running in ME at the time and it's always interesting to meet the people behind the 'Words & Music'…

Regards,

IanT

The construction of Stepperhead, with drawings, was covered by Peter Jackson in MEW issues 188 – 199, 200, 203, 207-10, 218 and 219.

Sorry Alan! Working from memory, not paper.

I went to university with a Peter Jackson and I think tehre may be one who has something to do with the cinema…

No Problem Neil, I would not like Peter to take the blame for my doings

Mike,

If I had helped direct Lord of the Rings I would have made cost cuts by cutting it down to Lord of the Ring, using only one ring.
