sounds sortof fun, we had a water fight useing a saftey RIB.
the driver was recording us sailing, normally we won't have a rib with us.
we decided to have a race since we use two keelboats. he had to mark the start line by lining up with a bouy and he decided to drop anchor at 19m of deph. when the saftey Ribs have about 4 metres of chain, he was a bit dopy

Noted.

oh and to make it worse the Ribs have a depth finder, how do you spell depth is that it?

McGherkin · « **Reply #6677 on:** June 23, 2010, 19:56:24 »

That is correct.

Total buffoon, I would never do anything like that.

Ralphy · « **Reply #6678 on:** June 23, 2010, 19:59:26 »

he was young but someone they trust to operate the saftey Rib i would say should have some experiance. he could handle it well though

McGherkin · « **Reply #6679 on:** June 23, 2010, 20:05:24 »

well I've had experience with RHIBs (although no RYA but they pay for that) so OK there

Well, I have to depart now, see you all tomorrow

Good day all

CAD earlier, have to make a TV stand (some interesting differences in size between TV and stand early on

), picture attached

And now some engineering Physics

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #6683 on:** June 24, 2010, 12:27:50 »

sounds fu8n

BTW any ideas when the schools break up for Summer...? Is it still 6 weeks?

McGherkin · « **Reply #6684 on:** June 24, 2010, 12:29:59 »

we have 7 weeks

Sometime in July...

It won't let me post the pictures for the last post!!

EDIT: It's 8.5MB, no wonder.

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #6685 on:** June 24, 2010, 12:30:51 »

7 weeks - I only had 6

Kids of today...

Why won't it like pictures?

McGherkin · « **Reply #6686 on:** June 24, 2010, 12:38:55 »

8.5MB probably...

Don't worry, I have plenty to do!

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #6687 on:** June 24, 2010, 12:44:28 »

Yeah, there is a size limit - you cuold shrink them, or use photobucket...?

McGherkin · « **Reply #6688 on:** June 24, 2010, 13:09:36 »

Shrink, maybe.

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #6689 on:** June 24, 2010, 13:12:25 »

What is that?

McGherkin · « **Reply #6690 on:** June 24, 2010, 13:17:24 »

The clue is in the file name. It's a TV stand.

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #6691 on:** June 24, 2010, 13:18:24 »

Is it a real one?

McGherkin · « **Reply #6692 on:** June 24, 2010, 13:20:23 »

I hope not, I've got to have designed it myself. You should see the two rejected ideas...

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #6693 on:** June 24, 2010, 13:21:19 »

They are good

McGherkin · « **Reply #6694 on:** June 24, 2010, 13:23:22 »

The second one has a little problem with strength on the TV mount

I can't show you that though, the stress test is a video. $:-\$

The first one is actually 3.2cm wide. Which was interesting, when I came to put the TV on it...

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #6695 on:** June 24, 2010, 13:38:01 »

I assume this isn't SU

McGherkin · « **Reply #6696 on:** June 24, 2010, 13:41:28 »

Nope, it's the good old Solidworks 2009 SP3.

has anyone stoped Buying Gas from the BP gas stations untill they get the leak fixed. my whole family has done it. there is a thing on facebook where it shows how many people stoped buying gas from them. I have stoped buying gas for my dirtbike from them. my dad got me a licens for it no its Street legal. whene im almost out of gas i just ride up to a gas station and fill it up people look at me like what the hell is he doing

its pretty funny

thom301 · « **Reply #6698 on:** June 24, 2010, 18:53:58 »

im still buying gas from BP just because its the closest gas station in the village where i live.

all other gas station are 10 or even 15 kilometers futher. $:-\$

The laugh is, it's not even BP's fault!

The rig was owned and operated by a subcontractor. They simply didn't take the necessary precautions, and Bang! she went.

The media has instantly blamed BP, because apparently it's their oil.

It's sad that BP are making the fall, even though they are doing their best to stop the leak.
