  1. Yeah, but it could look like rust depending what forms, and it would have the same weakening effects, rust is just a name for corrosion of Iron by oxygen.
  2. You live in portsmouth, near the coast, salt in the air+aluminium, with its top layer of Al2O3 removed by a scratch=corrosion. End of.
  3. Don't worry about it, it's a fairly easy exam I found, advanced is even easier. Oh and how did it go?
  4. Looks to me that is should *just* clear, good idea Edward.
  5. Snappel is right, SIA security guards aren't supposed to carry anything above a 4D, but I prefer not to carry a mag lite at all when I work, find it provokes more than it intimidates. As for torches a lot of the guys at work use one version or another of this they're f**king bright, enough to stun and dazzle anyone, and pretty well focused too.
  6. If you're going to buy a maglite get a C cell, you get a much nicer swinging action on them.
  7. Use a thinner lighter chain if you want, but keep an eye on it.
  8. These look pretty wide. Should hopefully do you proud. This set are also wide, but damn pricey and these are slightly cheaper and have a nice wide platform.
  9. Well, actually there is one sort of trespass that is indictable, aggravated trespass, if you go somewhere and make shed loads of noise etc you should be fine, just leave when you're asked, you're fine. However in Scotland there are no real trespass laws.
  10. Sorry to be a pedant, but the brake mounts will only be half an inch out, 20" and 19" are the diameters, not the radii. So you could probably make an adapter to run it for the time being..
  11. Because that's your normal rhythm, it's what you're used to, Dave is used to shitting more often, so for him that's uber uncomfortable.
  12. You'd complain if it turned up with a bunch of policemen.
  13. Nah, try apple juice and/or massaging your stomach and kidney area.
  14. You think Poland is bad? You should see the Ukraine.
  15. If you're making a frame and are having trouble with clearance just use an 85 or 100mm bottom bracket shell.
  16. Anti matter does exist, it's very hard to make, it's almost impossible to contain and it's very, VERY explosive. The thing is, the mass of the ship would have to be large for the force of the stars and planets top become noticeable, this is why it's called microgravity, cos it's at a microscopic level.

    I asked "Where is David Simon Wilhelm Spain, what does he do and what else can you tell me about him?" Reply: David Simon Wilhelm Spain is one of 25 UK adults named David Spain. One of them went to university in Preston and lives in Highbury and works in music. Well, reassuring to know they can't find out anything about me.
  18. Yeah, but thin oil will not interfere with the engagement AT ALL, it's too thin to do so, so there's no point in not running it.
  19. I woke up for no reason at around 0830 yeaterdat, I'm blaming the quake.
  20. E=mc^2 is the equation for rest mass energy, once you start moving the equation become E= (1/(1-(v/c)^2)^0.5)mc^2, the faster you got the more your mass would increase, so more energy would be needed, so more mass etc in vicious circle. Oh and by the way, once one has left the immediate vicinity of a planet one is barely affected by the gravitational attractions as the force obeys an inverse square law. For something to have negative mass it has to be antimatter, which annihilates on contact with matter, for example humans, in an explosive manner.
  21. Either thin grease or thickish oil for lube, if you're not confident removing bearings etc from hub shells go see your LBS, if you are the technical drawings on the hope website should do the trick.
  22. Looks like it should be good, I hope they have beefed up the front end for any heavy impacts from dirt jumps.
  23. How do you find the liquid chalk, thinking of buying some to try...
  24. The roughly know the mass, and they know the radius, so using: E=GM/R^2 one can calculate the value of th gravity, simple really. If there is life on that planet, they'll be roughly twice as strong as us.
  25. Welcome back man, good to hear your starting up again. Will bashguard.com be getting an update then? Dave
