You had engineering classes in middle school? Be grateful you even had that... none of my middle schools or highschools even offered a basic workshop class.jj16802 wrote:Because I had clumsy hands, I did not enjoy an engineering class I took in middle school.
The only things I remember from that class was designing a stool using cardboard, using AutoCAD to create a model of a basic aerodynamic car and then using a piece of wood and a saw to create it. I would have enjoyed it if it weren't for my clumsiness.Ace wrote:You had engineering classes in middle school?

That's pretty awesome, bruh. And who wasn't clumsy in middle school? :Pjj16802 wrote:The only things I remember from that class was designing a stool using cardboard, using AutoCAD to create a model of a basic aerodynamic car and then using a piece of wood and a saw to create it.

Look at that imperfect curve and how the hole isn't in the middle!

But I regret nothing, for now.
Stupid of me? I did exactly what I was told to do, and I didn't think of breathing anything in at the time. I was more concerned with not getting my finger sliced off by various cutting instruments. And yes, carbon dust can do serious damage. It just takes a lot of exposure to get to that point.El Qahira wrote:Join the X-Men.Ace wrote:So I was told today that I was exposed to toxic materials, because I did everything (as did the two veteran team members that were instructing me) without any protection aside from safety glasses.

But seriously though, that was stupid of you. Carbon dust does nothing serious, but yeah if you breath in a lot of it, it could do damage.
In lab I wore face masks and goggles when dealing with the rat. They never told us to bring one.Craig wrote:Ahmed, put yourself in his shoes, or at least put up a realistic scenario.
I mean come on now, you'd never think about the details while you're on the spot in the moment.
You didn't quite get it. If he hadn't told me to jump out a window, I certainly wouldn't have. I wasn't given some blatant stupid instruction. I wasn't told to ignore getting a facemask, it just wasn't brought up in the first place.El Qahira wrote:If he told you to jump out the window, will you do it because he told you?
That's what I keep on telling you in all our arguments...you have a brain, use it. Don't take anyone's word for anything. Analyze it first.
Lol ok, well don't worry too much. Youre not in danger.Ace wrote:You didn't quite get it. If he hadn't told me to jump out a window, I certainly wouldn't have.

I had never worked with carbon fiber before. How would I have known that it's sharp and dangerous to breathe in? You're expected to know what to bring to chem lab because you're had lab before, and all possibly damaging materials are clearly labelled as such. There's just several meters of carbon fiber rolled up in a corner of the workshop. No warnings or anything.
This wasn't a failure on my part, this was a failure on my two instructors, or the person/people who taught my instructors. Don't be so harsh, brah. I was still getting used to the awesomeness of being in a machine shop.
