No I had run out of stock by the time you wanted some but the only difference is the thickness, those are a standard thickness as opposed to the customized length for the C4s. What's the point? You still have tapered spacers and you chose to show the tubulars in your CAD model. Quote: BrianCunningham wrote:I've show this thread to all the other engineers in the department here. They all agree the way I did it is the way to do it. Just standard practice. It's a fine practice. Especially if you're putting something in flight, or into space, or building a one off special. But if I was doing any of those things I wouldn't buy something some from a vendor that I had spent a fair amount of time and posts touting early on just to turn around slap that vendor in the face after they had done you a favor by saying that the bolts they used on their product were all wrong and that I "want it done right". Especially after all the debate here indicates that it's probably not even the weakest link in the system. |
