The seat should now glide up and down the tracks. The tabs in the seat base fit between the tabs in the rails to prevent the seat from falling out in the event of a capsize or rough water. The seat can be easily removed however, without removing the tracks. Simply place the seat at the end of the tracks, and then shift the wheel axles so they are a the end of their rolling groove, and then the seat can be slid out over the end stops.

Happy rowing.
I thought I might put something in Shanno's group, and since I quite liked the back story on this one, it seemed quite appropriate. It's not really 'meh!', more 'why the hell did I build this piece of crap!?'. It was made for Easter this year.
PS. READ IT, YOU WIMPS!
"Rick Smatherly was just your ordinary lay-about unemployed middle-aged Brighton-living man. Nothing much had happened to him in his life. In fact, nothing at all had happened. Well, his wife had left him. That and he had his retarded hand.
But, in Rick's current stoned, semi-conscious state, those didn't matter at all.
Rick had collapsed on his sofa after a particularly rough night of getting stoned from buying beers using his unemployment benefits, and was still fully dressed, if you could count the dirty, smelly, sweaty garments he was wearing (and had been for the last three months) as clothes.
Then, something amazing happened. Rick's apartment door broke down. Ok, not so amazing. It had happened dozens of times before: the door was rotting. But this time, it wasn't Rick who broke the door down.
It was the Easter Bunny.
"Greetings, Rick" it said in a high yet growly voice. "Can you hear me?"
Rick started to wake up, though he was half awake already. "Who the bloody hell are you?" There was a giant rabbit standing next to his sofa. He just assumed he was dreaming. At least he wasn't naked this time.
"Rick Smatherly, I have chosen you to be my temporary successor. Since I am ill this Easter, you will deliver easter eggs around the town."
"I wot?" Rick half-shouted. This was one messed-up dream. Most of Rick's dreams either had him doing something stupid (usually naked), something including his ex-wife, or a combination of the two. This was new.
"Oh, for God's sake," the Easter Rabbit's shoulders fell and his toned suddenly turned colloquial. "Look here, Rick Smatherly. You are now the Easter Bunny. You need to deliver Easter Eggs around the town, so you'll have to find out how you're gonna do that. And there's no backing out. 'K?"
Rick sniggered. This was a funny dream. "Yeah, yeah, Easter Bunny. D'you mind if I call you Norman?"
"Oh, look here, Smatherly. This is not a dream."
"Ah, course not, Norman." Rick considered drinking more of what he had twelve pints of last night. If it caused these sorts of dreams, he'd like it more often. The barman would know.
The Easter Bunny slapped Rick Smatherly hard round the face, a total of five times.
"Ouch" said Rick. This dream sure does hurt. Or - maybe - it wasn't a dream?
"Is this a dream?" asked Rick timidly.
"No it bloody isn't you brain-dead moron!" Shouted the Easter Bunny. Then it kicked Rick in the crotch and walked out of the apartment.
There was no doubting a direct crotch-kick. This wasn't a dream.
"Damn" Rick said. "Now I have to go and do what he says."
***
And so, not two days later, Rick drove his Egg Rover and got to work dropping Easter Eggs around the town. Kids crowded around his vehicle, picking up the eggs falling out the back of it. For a brief moment Rick wondered if he could lead them all off a cliff. Sadly there were no cliffs in the immediate vicinity of the town, so it looked like the youth population of Brighton was going to stay constant.
As Rick drove his immense vehicle up the hill, Easter Eggs rolling down behind him every which way, he had a strange feeling of well-doing and pride. Damn, thought Rick. I'd better get stoned tonight, this Easter Bunny thing is making me feel weird.
The Easter Bunny did not visit again - he was too scared of hurting Rick another few times, as he had a kind soul. Well, for a giant mythical rabbit that is. Rick just got on with his life, in the usual way. But he would never forget that fateful kick in the groin (that was a new subject of his dreams).
Now, in most stories of this theme and type, the main character (in our case, Rick Smatherly) sees the error of his (or her) ways, then goes to be jolly and have a family and live a kind life or kiss a princess or whatnot. However, I am not writing for the general public, for little kiddies, for concerned parents. So, to conclude our short story, Rick drank more than he ever had before seven nights after the Easter Bunny met him, stumbled around town and fell off a cliff. The very cliff he had been so hopeful to find when he was delivering eggs. And, to top it all off, his ex-wife couldn't be less bothered and no one in his pub even knew his name, so his demise happened without disturbing the already unstable fabric of everyday Brighton lifestyle.
The End. "

The input jacks are secured to the back with a wire tie. I considered gluing them in, however using the tie allows me to remove the jacks if necessary.
You can switch on the external input by holding the 'sel' button down for a second. To use the 'sel' button for its original purpose, simply press it for a shorter amount of time.
