What have you learnt today????
« on: November 04, 2010, 18:34:50 »
Personally, I've found out that if a 2000 reg 2.0 turbo impreza ABS light is on, in my case, can be cured by 2 brake light bulbs being out.... Renew bulbs and light goes out  :huh:
Is this the japs way of telling you a bulb is out?

 I learnt how to make 10 drivers and loaders get off their bums  5 mins before the work bell... :dance:
 Its easy
 Just reverse my truck into the company flagpole :oops:

 They all come to have a look and laff at ya :^o

 Easy fix just pulled it straight by hand with a couple of mates.. its only made of aluminium. 
 Stupid place to leave a flag pole anyway, right at the edge of the loading yard/turning circle  :cry: (Thats my excuse anyway)

 Gaz
so many repairs
 so little time

hmm.. not the only CAD monkey on here then!?

...thats all I learnt today!

had another stab at 3D, why does the press/pull command never select the face you want it too?! grrrr!

It has been said that, given enough time, a million monkeys bashing at a million typewriters would eventually produce the complete works of Shakespeare. Thanks to the Saxo forums, we now know this to be wrong

Not really... "cul" is a rather rude synonym for backside! Often wondered whether the pretentious types would be so proud to live in a cul de sac if they knew that it really means "a**e of a bag"!  :lol:

What CAD are you learning?

Well started with 2D - just the basic commands (all the work we are doing so far has been in AutoCAD 2008.) still trying to get to grips with 2D.
But sort of experimenting with 3D too now. "Extrude"

College is difficult though, not used to this much maths and things i have never learnt before...
