Hi. Thanks for the suggestion on asking about standard practice. I have a
few questions, and I will use that format. Thanks again. "Koz" wrote in message .. . JWho wrote: There are too many! Everytime I read a reply, another one pops up. :-) I am such a noob that most anything will seem plausible right now. :-) Yup. As other's have said, there are (almost) no stupid questions. Ya gotta learn somewhere and anyone, even the old salts here, can learn something new from reading answers to the most simple questions. One caveat though: I suggest you ask what standard practice would be rather than the "if" questions. A ton of newbies come in asking "can I build a skyscraper using #6 screws to hold 1/2" thick webs of I beams together?" rather than " I am planning on building a skyscraper...what is the usual bolt size for steel members in construction like this and where can I learn more?" Come in asking how to do something the right way and learn from there rather than asking if you can do something the half-assed way and debating about why your plan will work if only you can use enough tiny screws and duct tape.

The rest of us will make up somthing plausible ![]() - - Rex Burkheimer Fort Worth TX JWho wrote: "Grant Erwin" wrote in message ... Hi. Thank you very much. I will check them out. I can't understand a good bit of what is discussed here, though I want to. It's hard to follow along when you don't speak the language. :-) So ask! The cool thing about ignorance is that, unlike stupidity, it's curable. GWE I have several metalworking related questions, and I am trying not to wear out my welcome. :-) |
