Hi how are you, same with me - lurking for ages so joining the forum can get some good advice and all that comes with it.

Hello, welcome (back). What field of Engineering? (Mike)

Analogy -- imagine car adverts: ".....IF I buy zees pussy-magnet and I see many fellow in front of me ees possible to drive over...?"

Do be aware airports have waypoints (beacons) so quite a bit of movement could be 35plus ASL and you won't hear anything till it's long passed. Check the website every single time (just in case) I'd also mentioned the atc staff on duty are very well trained to spot any activity and log it (down...

I live in the snitch-capital of the world where basically everything is illegal or bad for you. My Lasing hobby is mostly indoors.....but for night-time...... Excellent that you check the ATC first. I do exactly the same without fail. Other than that wait for that perfect fog usually before...

About 1992 I was returning to a job six hours from home on a Sunday evening, we carried a stunned but otherwise unhurt driver from an area covered by HCL, which whilst bigtime HAZMAT, is less toxic than other fuming agents. We were first on the scene (west of Rockhampton AUST) and the EMT who...

Positive earth or negative earth? I had the same issue with positive earth -- I just pop a five cent piece (same as a wheat penny) over the top and it pushes down on the pressure spring, resulting in circuit for positive earth. negative earth be more careful, many points of short circuit.

Just saw this in the Australian news media. The pic posted a powerful green beam from the Philippine Cast Guard. Cannot post link privileges but the article can be found but searching ABC Australia. Love to hear any feedback. This isn't the first time it's occurred. I thing PRC is more...

So true and "monetization" is peanuts anyhow

Rumble is a great alternative. They should rename YT to "Mooch-Tube" (.....and please consider supporting me on Patreon, crypto, etc etc.....)

The first time I was ever introduced to "Night-Vision" - back the in the 1980s it was totally classified technology and unavailable to the public. The thing I used was about TWO Kilo monocular like a big telescope that strapped on to your dominant eye. We referred to this amazing gadget as a...

That is how the SF guys operate. A visible sight screams out location - location

Excellent breed, good pup!

"Politics & Religion" always a nicht-nicht. I felt a bit odd/ uncomfortable mentioning RC Tanks....

Araldite -- the GOOD stuff binary glue made in England. Or try some lateral thinking -- carefully drill out with a 1/16th drill-bit then ream in a grub screw (available in any air-soft store. Hint: before you drill use a click-punch to start the "hole"

Those Gatlings....where can one obtain the replacement diode/driver/spring? Thanks in advance if you know (Mike)

Agreed in full. Everybody needs to be straight but not so stiff as to lose our sense of humour.

MAUS was a useless tank BUT....the track carousel set-up and design is the basis of modern mega cranes such as Liebherr.

The MAUS was a moving beast.

HF is fairly useless stuff and unbelievably toxic. I've had dealings with this stuff when I was younger. It was used as a catalyst in processing gasoline. My job as a subcontractor was to install insulation cladding over the hot-pipes in a hypermax secure area known as "Alky-Section". To get...
