  1. Thing is, I only put the money in there for a day then took it straight out again, so the balance was £0 when I went to use Paypal today, yet all free. Shoulda probably mentioned that at the start.
  2. Up until recently I had only used Paypal to buy things, like you do. Then last week I wanted to transfer money from my bank account to my Paypal account, weird thing being that they wanted all my details again and it would take 3-5 days to reconfirm it all, I had only updated my card details a few months previous so wasn't sure what was going on. Now it seems that all my regular transactions are free, which is much better than before. How did I not know this? So can anyone confirm that transferring money to your Paypal account somehow unlocks free (normal) trading? Cheers
  3. 2.5um is 1/16th of a human hair.
  4. Studers are good fun, I was right next to those guys.
  5. Yea working to 1/10th of 1/1000th of an inch or 2.5um, the surface finish becomes really important.
  6. I was setting the tooling for different jobs using the lovely Voumard, precision was the name of the game though which kept it interesting for so long.
  7. I was a machinist the Barden Corporation for 3 years, it got shit.
  8. Not gonna lie, but this is the best frame for 150mm forks. Used to fly past the DH'ers on this thing with SO much confidence! You can have it for £80 if you like Edit: Good times..
  9. Riding with no t-shirt on after a night out ended up with me loosing a lot of skin off my back. Also thought this was relevant [media=]

  19. My thoughts on time at the moment, Time is just things changing relative to other things, space and time share a beautiful relationship that is well known. I'll even take a stab at predicting that time slows down when you approach a black hole and reaches a net change of 0 in the space which the singularity exists. So if it were possible to stand in a black hole and look out into space, we'd see stars forming and dying in seconds because time outside proceeds so much faster. We'll get to observe this in one year because currently there is a massive cloud of gas and dust accelerating towards the black hole at the centre of the milky way, currently at about 8 million miles per hour. I'd expect this cloud to start slowing down (relative to us) as it gets closer to the hole, then actually stop and linger around the event horizon for a while, then particles will either fall in (to be frozen in time) or radiate away due to the non regular, turbulent nature of a spinning gravity field that is constantly receiving energy from random directions. So yea, there's something to look forward to
  20. We'll take Echo, they are selling very well and rightly so. The frame is good, plus it has the BB and chain tensioner features built in that work well too. If a frame design can incorporate a booster/clamp that is stiffer and lighter than a frame + booster + bolts + clamp, people will work this out straight away.
  21. Because if the frame is good and has this built in feature which works well, people are gonna buy your frame over other's on the market, which makes you more money through increased sales by being seen to put function before profit. Regardless of that I think there are major adjustment issues with the built in clamp design.
  22. We don't want to get too obsessed with infinities or we'll end up like Cantor!
