total uni said:*oh yes i have the tools to do just about anything in metal.
pipe benders,welders,grinders,milling machines, lathes, drill presses,
you name it.
gerbel is just insulted that someone younger than him can do what he
can do and even better!!!!!
and if the frame breaks/bends under normal abuce i will replace it/
refund your money! *
Just like you made a bc wheel with "4130 aircraft grade steel" that
turned out to be crappy steel (not chromoly) or wrought iron plate?
The word is insinuated, first of all. Secondly, I don't have an age
superiority complex (although you have proven yourself to be pretty
immature inthe past, not to say that noone ever hasn't), so don't act
like I do, if you even know what that meant. Third, I don't care how
good you are at metal working, if you can't come up with a good design,
the best machinist in the world won't be able to make the frame a
reality.
But back to age, I've never met a 13 year old who has the design,
engineering, or metalworking experience to build a srong, light,
effective coker frame. Especially someone who doesn't even know how to
spell "abuse". Also, I never said how well I could make a frame,
although I can guarantee you that the frames I am building right now are
well beyond what you could design and build. I'm curious, Evan, can you
tell me what the radius I would have to use on a flycutter if I wanted
to cut a bearing holder on a frame with an outside lip depth of 3/32"
for a 40mm bearing? Then tell me what the radius would have to be for
the actualy bearing seat. And I want that measurement in inches, thank
you. If you can tell me that, I will believe you *might* be able to
build a good frame, but if you can't, you'll never have one done.
Shadowuni would be a pretty dumb person to accept the refund policy of a
13 year old. I am 16, and have far more monetary experience than you,
Evan, and I still wouldn't be able to say I am resonsible enough with
money to guarantee somone a refund if their frame broke. Also, it
doesn't take much time to find the thread where you offer to buy Jag's
frame and end up saying that you'd need a loan from mommy to buy it.
Shadowuni would be better off just burning the cash, to save himself the
stress of dealing with you.
