N.O.S. Posted January 3, 2008 Share Posted January 3, 2008 Barry, when you come to assess the entries, Id like you to know that my first entry worked out at (including spaces) 68 characters for a 1/4" long component, that's 272 characters per inch :-D :-D :-D My second entry worked out at 106 characters for a 3/4 " long item, that's 141 characters per inch What the h*ll am I doing, it's way past bed time, its all your fault, what did you start this thread at this late hour for? :angry: :angry: :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.O.S. Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 :oops2: I didn't mean to cheat! The first item - 'round head' was abbreviated to 'rd hd' so that was 5 characters less. Also the scew head adds 1/4" to the length, so it is 1/2" long. So that makes it 126 characters per inch run of comonent. The second one if you count the bolt head is 1 1/8"long, so that one is only 94 characters per inch run. This must be beatable! :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antarmike Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 The spare parts manuals for the Antars have lots of parts (Cab, and bodywork in particular that have a desription but no part number, merely saying "local manufacture" Ie they do not exist as spare parts, you have to make them yourself. To have a part name and no part works out as infinity. since anything divided by zero equals infinity. This ratio is hard to beat!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
