Yeah, you need a new edge to go along with it. Something along the lines of
"If she doesn't find you handsome, she'll at least find you handy."

Subject: [DL] The Mad Scientist's Secret Weapon
The following is a result of having watched far too
many episodes of The Red Green Show. Any thoughts?
Ghost Tape
Reliability: N/A
Hand: Straight
Cost: $50/roll+$15/hand
Ghost tape is designed, created, and has its
ingredients determined in the same manner as an
alchemy formula. However, unlike your typical elixir,
the hand drawn during the formula design affects the
quality of the ghost tape, as well as the sellng price
(see above). When used in the construction or repair
of a gadget a +6 is applied to the tinkering roll and
an additional +2 for each hand above a straight in the
formula (so a formula that got a flush would total +8,
a full house +10, and so on). Gadgets put together
with ghost tape are finished in half the normal time.
The Marshall determines how much of a roll gets used
up on a job. However, there's a price to be paid for
such shoddy workmanship. Gadgets constructed with
ghost tape are stuck with the base Reliability of the
blueprint, no matter how many raises were had on the
tinkering roll. Potential spoilers ahead.

Also, any device built or repaired with ghost tape
must use the Extra Tasty Crispy Malfunction Table
below when a Reliability check is failed.
2-6: Major Malfunction
7-9: Minor Malfunction
10-12: Catastrophic Malfunction

I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is called a disgrace,
that two are called a law firm, and that three or more become a Congress.
