When a thread deteriorates into name calling and a pissing contest it's done.

Yeah; I thought this was going to be about bolts that wouldn't come out, but I was also incorrect. I did see the two forum threads locked when I logged on last night, so I guess it's my fault for not putting 2 and 2 together. |

Tighten until you hear a crack, back off quarter turn. When I started in the business, my first dealership was a Nissan/Jeep/Eagle/Renault dealership. Yes, Renault. We had a similar one that we used to call French torque. Tighten it til it strips; then back it off half a turn. |

I found it mostly recollection of past experiences with some advice thrown in. But, I'm not a moderator here, or any where. As a recently certified municipal building inspector, I wanted to add some comments. Thanks for all you do Willow. |

You don't see them because I deleted them. My normal practice is that I reach a point of locking after I have repeatedly removed posts due to ridiculing names and personal attacks. I don't have another job these days but I choose not to devote all of my time doing this one. |

Mind you, I'm usually on here late and am tired, so maybe I didn't notice. One thing for sure.......till now on any forum, I had never been a participant on a thread that got locked! Do I win a prize??? |

Congratulations on the certification Bill Is this the guy who comes out and inspects construction or a remodel of a house ? Thanks Rob and yes, that guy. The testing is a lot of work. I started as a part time, 2 days a week, assistant "local inspector" inspecting 3 + family buildings and annual inspection of assembly buildings (businesses, churches, schools, etc) in Southbridge, a town near by. When a small town just south of mine, Wales, advertised for a Building Commissioner, I applied and got the job. I like it, I get to use the decades of experience I have, without actually putting nails in wood. |
