Shlew,
Huge thanks!
The description in English here: http://www.injapan.ru/auctionDescriptio ... 15049.html . I am sorry, machine translation, very poor.

Skeeter,
If this concept to realize on modern technologies by modern materials, such combination will not be heavier.
Even to the contrary. I have not become to make under this concept tackle of the H-EH class. But for the L-M class I see major advantages.

Shlew, that one is the Gentleman Streamliner that I mentioned in my earlier post. It came out a short time after the Hurd. One of it's main features was the rubber roller that squeezed the water from the braided silk and nylon lines being used at the time. You disengaged it during the cast.
