*Smacks himself*. Is this a dream?

 

[Wurger]

Whose dream?

 

[B-17engineer]

Mine, I-I acutally did it!

 

[Wurger]

The training makes a master.

 

[B-17engineer]

Ehm, mate, I need to go. I hope you have a great night!!!!! And depending work load, I hope we can work on this tomorrow?

 

[Wurger]

Yes we can. Tomorrow ( actually today ) I'm at home. But why the left one is of bigger diameter than the second on right?

Sleep well.

 

[B-17engineer]

Forgot to print something. Um I'm not sure. I was going to sand it down.

 

[Wurger]

It will be better to set the same diameter of the right one on the compass and then draw the circle on the left one again.
You will see how big the difference is.

 

[B-17engineer]

Sure I'll do that so I'll use the smaller one?

 

[Vic Balshaw]

I've got to say H you are hanging in there great, just go slow and easy and it will all come good. An good on you Wojetk, you've got great teaching skills, your visuals are fantastic

 

[Wayne Little]

Yeah...keep up the good work...both of you!

 

[Wurger]

THX guys.

Couple suggestions if you ever try to do wheel wells like this again in the future.

First, tape the plastic to a board or your tabletop so it cannot move around.
Second draw a long straight line on the plastic card to make the center line for both circles.
Third draw your circles using the same centerline described in the second step. Poke the center of your compass into the line and the draw one circle, then do the same on the same line for the second one.
Lastly try not to press so hard with the lead of your compass and pencil, I think you just need a faint line. This will keep your pencil from loosing it's point so fast and thus getting a thick line.
Just my obeservations, I'm no expert on the subject by any means.
Hope that helps and makes some sense to you. Good luck, you doing a great job thus far.

 

[B-17engineer]

Thanks Buck! Will keep that in mind.....

Boy do I have some school work today

Boy do I have some school work today

What!...no modelling.....

My daughter has lots of school work too, her final exams start on Thursday, she is in High School Year 12, don't know the US equivalent level ?

just googled, your equivalent is Year 12 Senior!

 

[Wurger]

I'll use the smaller one?

If its diameter is correct you can use that.If not, try again.

 

[B-17engineer]

Wojtek just a couple quick things for school, I re did the circles, pics soon

 

[Wurger]

OK. Try to make them precisely.

 

[B-17engineer]

How are u today Wojtek?
