Could this be the starting point for a future editor ?

One never knows !

IT background but drive a truck ???????????????

Good luck mate and remember - Life -family- work -play and model engineering in that order although some would have it in reverse !

I would be hoping that all will understand that you are not available 24/7 to moderate and behave .

Actually, trucking background, went for a career change, chose IT but the grass was not greener and I'm back doing what I enjoy.

I can still fix computers though which makes for some handy beer vouchers.

Well done and congratulations Wolfie.

For a bit of information, lorry drivers in Europe are the second most highly regulated workers next to airline pilots. It is a highly professional occupation requiring a huge skills set to be successful.

Of course, we have all met the idiots and morons, but we have also seen a lot of pilot-error plane crashes...

I'm afraid that my little forays may now not reach the forum because I am Wolfie's nemesis - a Transport Manager wink

You'll have to find me first.

Ketan I got a job in November back in my old profession of truck driver. It means I'm on the road Mon-Fri and dont get much time in my workshop. plus I'm working on a commission with my plastic modelling which is currently taking up my spare time. When thats finished its back in the workshop and more silly questions.

I don't think that any one regarded your questions as silly. I honestly enjoyed reading them because you were happy to talk openly about a project or situation which could go F.U.B.A.R.(urban dictionary). You shared your learning experience with everyone, and I know that everyone is happy to help, and many of us, including me are happy to learn from your experience. Your novice threads have been very educational, especially as there aren't many educational courses around. I hope that one day YOU will write a beginners series, in simple english, which a novice can understand.

Ketan at ARC.
