Indeed, very beneficial.

Here is a thread I just started asking for help regarding bracing/bowing concerns.

I got most of the bracing off before I ran the knife across my knuckle and had to stop to get some stitches!

No need to be sorry, I'm laughing at myself.

My tank now has the blood and the sweat, now all I need are the tears!

Ha..ha... I know what you mean. While trying to screw in my overhead track system, the screwdriver slipped and whacked me right between the eyes. I thought it hurt, but when I pulled my hand back....blood everywhere.

I had the same thought...the sweat and tears were already in the tank, so it was only a matter of time....

Don't worry the tears will come when you get your credit card statements each month.

SolidWorks 2008 with Comoworks FEA add-on. For a legal license you're looking at around $8000. So unless you're using it for business you really don't need it. In addition you need to know a little about the subject to use it, I really wouldn't like to think anyone could do what I do.

Ya, figured she'd be pricy. I have some expensive software here too for my CNC milling machine. But not $8K. Dont worry, I have too much to do allready to try and figure out what it is you do too LMAO
