What happened at your workbench today?

[Rhinochugger]

Not quite on point - it's more a question of what happened on my workbench yesterday, or the day before.

Why did nobody spot it in my photo of the underside of the bogie ?

I have checked, and it seems that, while the bogie sides were off, with all my fiddling and diddling, I managed to turn the guts of the bogie through 180 degrees, and consequently we have a short, as both bogies collect power from the track.

I have to say that I'm surprised, but then .................................. it's probably par for the course

This is what happens when you deal a lot with old people!

To be fair, nobody would have been able to see, I was just amazed that, with the bogie still attached by its wires to the tender, I managed to turn it through 180 degrees without realising.

Who are you again?

Come to that, who am I...?

Now, now, this is a workbench thread, not a discussion on existentialism

I think, therefore I am...

I'm pink, therefore I'm Spam.....

But does the workbench exist when you are not perceiving it?

I came into this chatroom for something, but can't for the life of me remember what it was...

I can't exist without my workbench

If you hurt yourself at the workbench, and there is no one there to hear you scream.......

Do you make a noise

For once and for all . . . let's get rid of this "does a falling tree in the forest make a sound if there's nobody there to hear it" nonsense! (of course it does)

 

[HobbitFertang]

Or am I missing the point? er, what is the point??

 

[PhilP]

Well you can always hear the bl**dy chain-saw, to clear up afterwards!

Finished the riveting on the ends so I hve sprayed grey undercoat on those ends nd the riveted side. Just the other side to do now, sprayed it to further help hold the rivets in place. Chaotic workbench seen, many of us have these!

Clean workbench = not enough projects on the go!

I work on the theory that most things are there to have other things piled on top of them...

Have you been looking at my desk???

Meanwhile a bit of metal cutting and rejoining more or less ready for fitting together. Another job to do is number all the little draws, lettering gets faded by daylight so hopefully purchased printed numbers and a list of what is in each will work. Also my eyes will find tgat better.
