you know you are not an engineer if you have to remind yourself "left loosy righty tighty"

It seems most people don't realize this, but I'm available quite a bit on AIM as "boilingleadbath".
There's a lot of stuff I don't know, but I don't mind helping you if I can.

Welcome Clownboy
Research and figure out what you are doing before asking for help.
ALL the info is here and for the most part has been done before.
Don't think that I'm a hardass but nearly every day some one asks a question
about pezio ignitors.For example . It is the most basic/simple part and some
kid treets it like rocket science and starts a new post, just as the last pezio post goes off the page.
All the people posted above have given good advice.
People can not listen when their talking.
If you want to talk use a chat room.
Build some guns/launchers and shoot !!
