I can't get over the fact that they're so cheap- I need bits with >=75% chance of working- I can't just keep throwing money down the drain- how sure are you they'll work? or are you joking with me?- I need to yield results man- it's making me really angry that yet again for something small like screw extraction I have to wait for more stuff.
Edit: Ok I bought these right now because it said would arrive tomorrow if ordered before 14:00 : https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301112999770 |

OK, that's progress. Be very very careful with the 2mm and 3mm bits, you don't want them snapping. I'd recommend buying some extra 2mm - 4mmm cobalt bits when your budget allows.

Like I said, this is well above your pay grade. STOP, and find some-one who can do the job properly, ad if you are really really keen and enthusiastic, ask them if you can watch how they do it, to 'learn' something, rather than blindly attacking poor unsuspecting bits of metal with ignorance and a battery operated screw-driver!! |
But this is the same MATHS Uni student that didn't want to pay £110 for a new set of keys after losing his last one 
Yet then went on to spend far much more and fucking the bike up.....
So it really does make you wonder about the quality of uni students, especially one doing maths, who can't work out a simple costing exercise.....
And also the total lack of common sense in some people....
Maybe this guy is another who charges his i-phone in the bath  |
Err... not really... My Dad's a.. actually NO! Stop the presses! He was, a university professor! He retired last September, so has lost his chair! It's probably in the same places as his spectacles, his car keys, and two previous marriages, in a dimension where the square root of minus one isn't 'imaginary'.
I used to get sent suitcases at periodic intervals by the woman he's lived with for the last thirty years, and managed some-how to forget marrying, unlike the others! "Your Dad's been shopping... a-g-a-i-n.. I had confiscated his credit card, but then he managed to order a replacement... I think he must have got a new secretary... I will have to go talk to her... his taste remains ... err.. expensive... but I don't know who's spectacles he must have stolen when he tried them on in the mirror.... has he EVER had a 30" waist? As usual, take anything that fits, and donate the rest to Oxfam. Oh, there's also a few records..... He insisted he didn't already have them... but he does! The socks 'problem' still vexes me... but he has only dented the car once this month.... he backed into the bin.. a-g-a-i-n,, and complained that I really should be more careful where I put the dustbin HE put out! But at least he hasn't set anything on fire recently... that I know of...."
The 'socks problem' being that shortly after they first moved in together, she emptied his sock draw of eclectic odd socks in the bin, and replaced them with ten packs of neutral navy blue pairs, so no matter what he grabbed, they should match.
The plan failed.
HOW with nothing but matching socks in his sock draw he can still find odd ones, is a mystery, and proof of the adage that every time you 'think' you have made something idiot-proof they invent a better idiot... or in my fathers' case, release an upgrade pack!
During the tenure of wife No.2, I was sent to spend a month with him trying to play TV Dad for her... I suspect, his 'plan' probably wan't so stupid, and she might have suggested something 'daft' like having a baby... but I suspect, his 'plan' worked. I was sent out for the morning with new Step-Mum to do some shopping, he needed to do some reading... we returned to find him in the kitchen, up to his ankles in water, waving books around crying "I cant let them get wet!" which engendered a shriek from un-mum, who went into a flurry of interrogating him "What did you do?!?", whilst 8 yr old me, pulled the plug out of the sink... it was the 70's, automatic washing machines were a novelty, plumbed in ones even more so and most had a hose that hung over the sink to let them drain... t was a rather short marriage I recall! But I did manage to acrue at least half a dozen such anecdotes from it!
And that's just my Dad! My mother was a student! Between them, I was surrounded by grads and undergrads during my childhood, and carted off on 'field trip weekends', by both of them... I still recall vividly, as a seven year old being given a lecture by an ecology tutor on the importance of 'proper' out-door clothing and Kendle Mint Cake, on the fells... and being rather aghast at the juxtaposition between bobble hat and cagoule, with open toe sandals and argyle socks... in fact, as only a 7yr old can, I recall remarking on it... and being offered a further lecture on how t was good enough for the Roman's and how they ruled this country for four hundred years, with open toe sandals and argyle socks, and invented central heating and running water into the bargain!
Thing didn't change much after I left uni, and found myself the lone mechie, in a factory of leccies, developing missile guidance systems for the military, and patiently trying to explain that their wonderful square circuit diagrams had to be made 'round' to fit in a rocket body... have you ever seen a rocket scientist with a Bill-Gates error message "Does not Compute" palpably sitting over their head... just above the pencils sticking out behind their ears like ant antenna?
So, I am pretty sure that the dimension in which the square root of minus one.... DOES exit... in the same dimension as so many academics, where common sense, does seem even less common than usual, and in direct inverse proportion to measured intelligence quotient!
See reply above to jnw010, I am not a pessimist, I am a disillusioned optimist, clinging futily to some tattered shreds of 'hope'!

I seriously recommend checking into your closest doctors and asking for a sperg test. |
...my vote is that Arcane grows up, cracks the maffematics of time travel, steals Chipmunk's flux capacitor, goes back in time and fathers Tef.

Any post which tells me to listen will also be rated as such. I've done nothing except ask questions. And buy what I was told to buy.
And go away with the pictures-I'm not discussing that again.

You're the one asking for help, if people need pictures to help, then the least you can do is play ball, you ignorant cunt. |
