Canute Posted August 21, 2015 Share #273 Posted August 21, 2015 The engineering mind at work. Great at working out the tech side of things, but downright miserable at writing, grammar and spelling. I'm a prime example, so spell check is my friend. Although I do re-read stuff to make sure auto-correct is using the right word.

SawdustDave Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share #277 Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) Yep Nenad..... Anything you do incorrectly on your model will be automatically corrected by this new "auto correct" tool. The way it works is amazing. When you turn out the lights in the shop each night, any mistakes made during the day will be completely fixed overnight. Really cool huh!

GLakie Posted August 24, 2015 Share #295 Posted August 24, 2015 I know all too well how boring it gets in there Dave. Even with Cable TV (at an out-of-pocket cost of course), I was bored sicker. Used to look forward to the nurses coming in to check on me though. Gave me something to do by telling them a few jokes. Don't think their Supervisor liked it much, but hey, I figured if I could drive 'em nuts, they'd kick my a** out early. Hang in there man. It can't last forever.

SawdustDave Posted September 3, 2015 Author Share #296 Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Finally getting back into the shop (limited sessions). Picking up on companion ways and gratings. After completing the companion way for the half deck I created the small grating for that deck and realized, the grating I am using is not in scale. See posting #263.... I should have caught it there. Another re-do.... Just ordered some 2 mm grating because I did not have nearly enough of that small scale in my bone yard. So I'll begin playing around with the cannons and carriages I just received. They look great.
