My Retarded Look Steel Plate

Today is an experiential day, I got chance to perform some chores which at the moment no technician is free enough to help me with it. Well, show off my 'retarded' look circular plate at least it look round!!! It was not easy though to trim the edges with the super heavy equipment and gigantic machine.. Sorry for dun hv the photos of all d machine coz the technician didn't allow me to capture the photos there... By the way, my hands ache till now and even shaky while I was typing away...

Tata.. some of the plates cut and trim by me...

The leftover and the testing pieces..

By the way.. I'm proud of the steel plate. Though it looked a bit retarded but they are measured, drawn, cut and trim by me.. hehehe..

Not to forget also to thank CU who help me to find the piece of Zincalume (which I had been looking up and down d town), Darrien, En R for teaching me how to operate the machine and teach me the techniques to cut and trim (although tat day he scold me for no reason), En R1 for helping me to cut the mild steel, and and and ..... in short thanks you all :)..

Simply a post..

Turning the headphone volume to the max, turn my handphones into silent mode, sign in facebook, blogging.. I'm sad and disappointed at the moment..

Research lab work really draw me knackered. Start questioning myself again why I choose this stupid school for my research..

IF~~ IF~~ by the way, IF~ there is IF... I would not be who I am now..

This is the 3rd improvement of the lab instruments to carry out my lab work.. yet all things come out to be null.. Total of 48 + 32 + 36 +48 + 56 + 63 + 75 + 91 + 104 + 63 + 108 = ???.. count for me how many times I failed my lab work analysis... Felt like digging myself a hole, hide inside and flooding the small hole.. T.T

This is the conversation between Mr Chiew (a supplier), Nur Adha (NA) *just realised tat Nur Adha got a NA for his initial name.. no wonder always Not Available*and Me..
