Inverted snobbery.... yawn. (OT)
"'Mike'" wrote in message ... "JennyC" wrote in message ... I heard a story (might be another myth Mike) about a chap drilling a hole in a wooden wall and coming out the other side into a metal wall............down tools by the metal workers union........ Jenny Fitting a Porthole into a ship. Shipwright to mark it out Burner to cut most of the hole. Caulker to trim the hole. Shipwright to mark the holes for the rivets Driller to drill the holes Riveter to fit the porthole in. Shipwright to mark the holes for the curtain rail and drip tray Driller to drill the holes Joiner to fit the curtain rail Coppersmith to make the drip tray Shipwright to fit it. I kid you not. That was the 50's when I was doing my Apprenticeship. Mike 2007 = one multi functional programmed machine :~) Jenny |
