  1. Wow, that's great! Speaks volumes about that shop. I'll never sugest anyone go to Toyota Direct now either.
  2. IIRC you can buy kits to chemically etch your own stuff. The place I used to work did their own proto boards, but they had their own chemical and mechanical etchers. They never used anyone outside. We don't do that type of work where I am now, nor have I ever used anywhere in the past. I'm sure there is somewhere. I think cost might be an issue unless they feel like being charitable since it's for school. I'll ask my dad tonight if he knows anywhere. Just wondering, what's the deal with a 'senior' design and you are 20? Take a few years off in high school.
  3. http://greatinventions.tv/products/images/razor.jpg http://www.dialysis.co.uk/images/12blade.gif Shaving is a pain for me. I use the MachIII, but didn't buy into the MachIII Turbo. I might have to try this new one out.
  4. That kitchen isn't going to have enough room for you to cook Bettina food Hoblick. Congrats on the new house.
  5. Is that a Lex Wener owned place. I know someones who's worked at the limited warehouse forever. He might know someone over there.
  6. Why in the world would I want to buy one of those crapwagons? :barf:
  7. Ah cool, I obviously thought you were implying something else. Pretty much completely agree with what you said. It's a small step in the right direction. This alone will do very little though. I whole-heartedly believe in a top down philosophy in almost any company, even ones this large. If the people up high act one way, so will the people below them, and the people below them. Generally speaking the major change will come from the managers (higher up), high-level 'designers'/engineering managers, engineers. There's not a whole lot they can do with design when, like you said, the build cost are too high.
  8. House Republicans elect Boehner as leader
  9. Man, stock ride height and tires makes that thing look like a tracker. Looks the way a Wrangler should now, I like it.

    ipods

    Cool man, I signed up for you. I hope it shows up soon, I hear they can take a while. Can you go make a referral for me for the I Pod? Link
  11. It's all about percentages. I'm sure the build quality is good enough. Although I'm sure it could be better that is not the primary reason why the ex-Big 3 are in this current crisis. While my car or your car may have been put together a little better, it's the inherent quality from the design of the car that is better. They simply can not make a profit on many automobiles because what the have to put into them is too much money for what they can get out of them. That's what happens when a line worker is getting paid far too much because the UAW has a strangle hold on them (the Big 3). That is 100% the problem. Although part of the issue at this point may be huge pensions, that's because of the huge amount of money line workers were making in the past due to the UAW. I'm not saying that is a bad move. That is a huge PR move, but it's going to create an imperciveable increase in the quality of the cars if any. They might sell a few more due to Joe Blow liking this campaign, or a few people not wanting to walk as far at their plant. It's not going to do anything for the profit margins on the cars, and very little for their market share. I can tell you this is will likely have the impact of the kinematic equivalent of a spec of dust underneath an elephant’s foot in relation to their current financial crisis. Regardless of the Plant Managers intentions, whether they be completely political/PR motivated, or completely heartfelt die hard Fords are the best car in the world. That's the reality of the situation and what little effect this is going to have on that company, the outcome of this isolated incident has little to do with his intentions.
  12. Sounds like it should be able to do the job just fine. Haha, make the maintenance guy come there when you have 15 just washed pairs of pants and try and dry them.
  13. Seriously, what in the fuck are you trying to say?
  14. Also, stereotypically you can only put about half a full washer load in the dryer. That's just the way they design them, don't ask me why? If you are putting in a full load/the clothes are filling up about half of the dryer, that's why.
  15. Oh, I don't know how I would have been thinking you were trying to challenge him. Maybe it was your direct reply to him wanting some upgrades for his car saying "u go ahead and pick that up i have more then 1 toy u got beat by my slow toy i have a 2001 ss camaro and a 2002 streched r1 ,piped, commaned and sprayed" If you have nothing more than 'fart jokes' to throw my way then please save yourself the embarrassment and don't. If your decision-making skills while driving are anything comparable to your reading and writing compression, then no thanks on the race, I like my car the way it looks.
  16. No, I gathered all of that from your earlier post. It wasn’t too hard to figure out. So it's not ok for him to challenge cars obviously (maybe?) slower than him but when you challenge him with a car that's obviously faster it's ok? That's called being a (stupid) hypocrite. You already beat him with you truck, great, that's kind of funny because it sounds like his car should definitely be faster. But you're not special because of it so shut the fuck up about it. And jesus titty fucking christ your talking about a sprayed liter bike against that thing, that's gayer than Chris Green's shampoo bottle stories. Do you even realize how asinine of a thing that is to propose. Ok, you’re obviously not very bright so I will spell it out for you. I think calling out cars with bikes is dumb in the first place (as do a vast majority of the people on here). Obviously most modern sports bikes are going to be faster than a vast majority of cars. A car calling out a bike is fine because it's the preverbal David picking on Goliath, but not the other way around. Then to challenge a pretty slow car with a very fast bike is just dumb.
  17. Ahhahahhaha. But This one is a gem too. Still a cool car. I guess that’s what happens when someone with too much money pays someone else to do their stuff sometimes. Also, that motor is shoved in there. I would hate to do an work on that thing.
  18. That's even on a weekend, you got luck. Have fun with that!
  19. Aren't you a bar back right now? That makes good money and is fun for a little while, that is not a good (long term) job (ie carrerr). It also often leads to drinking too much, why Ben is mentally retarded now. You don't want to end up like him. School will seem like it was short and very worth it once you finish, trust me.
  20. That's like a high school football star picking on five-foot tall retard. Good for you, you can beat a slow car with a few bolt-ons with a car that is pretty fast stock or a sprayed liter bike. Don't you feel special? Throne, I don't know how it's possible, but if you buy anything from that place, you'll be an even bigger tool than you are now.
  21. Uhh, what's so wrong with these two?
  22. It's not my fault you're not even old enough to drink yet son.
  23. People used to ask this about once a month so they made a sticky. I think it needs reinstated. Or like they say on a lot of other forums, STFA Noob!
