More Rolex Goodies...

Hi all,

I had my CAD exam in the morning (Computer Aided Design), which went extremely well

Since I hadn't slept much I caught a cab home so I made it back just a bit after 1pm...and these were waiting for me:

















The watch stand came with a broken 'G' size Rolex C-clip. If anyone would know where I could replace it, I would be most obliged. As for the second dealer tray, one edge is devoid of leather, and the bottom side is rather tattered - but the top side is in great nick!

The SDDS pack is brand new with a nice CD. The Submariner/Daytona/Datejust pack has proper 'photos' on cardboard inside. Would make for some nice wall hangings if framed behind non-reflective glass.

I'm not sure if I will keep all these Basel packs; sure they are nice to look at but there's no reason why I should hog 'em and have all the fun.

All the best,
Michael.

It was more a theory paper covering parametric stuff like bezier curves, surfaces (patches), hermite basis functions etc. Also set theoretic/CSG that sort of stuff.

Had a bit of matrix (homogenous 4x4) manipulations involving mirroring and the usual rotations about x,z, and y-axes.

More tedious than anything really

Congrats!

I just WISH I had one of those DSSD Press Kits!

I've asked three AD's if they would part with theirs.....

Awesome! I've been using Pro/E since release 12 back in the early 90's. I'm on Wildfire 3 now with PDM Link/Windchill for file management and BOM creation. No FEA experience though. Here are work, we pass our designs on to an analysis group who do the FEA. I think it's the best solid modeling tool out there.

Yea, we got Wildfire 3 at Uni as well. Amazing software!

I'm from an EEE background so my Mechanical skills are still 'newbie' ish haha...the FEA stuff is very cool though, had a recent project involving it...
