I just wonder how many forum posters are actual "engineers"? |

While I myself am not an engineer I am related to many engineers and it's hard not to retain some knowledge from them. I lack the patience for the formulas but I understand the concepts, and I love to experiment especially if I can eat it. So technically I am connected to the engineering field while not myself being an engineer. |

My father was an industrial chemist which means he used to bring big bags of stuff home to play with. I watched & eventually followed in his footsteps, kind of.
I'm self taught which means I've ruined, broken, bent, split, melted & set fire to loads of stuff that no one knows about... they only see the stuff that worked. It's great  |
