So you think you're mechanically inclined?

One thing I've found is that the test is a bit vague. For instance, in the gearing tests, when they want you to figure out how much one gear will rotate more/less than another gear. They don't say what size the gear is (a is four times bigger than b, etc).

Kinda hard to figure that out if you don't know how big it is

But if you click the picture, you can count the number of teeth...

Leave it to the engineer to look at the detail, Gunner...

I didn't even need to enlarge it to count them. The small had ten teeth and the large had twenty teeth!!

Counting the teeth on the gears was the only way to solve the problems.

My laptop screen is only 12" on the diagonal- I couldn't see the teeth without enlarging them.

Mine's a 17" widescreen.

don't you guys know anything? It's about the size and resolution which determines pixel pitch, not the screen size alone...

The size and resolution of mine is perfect!

 

[john112deere]

I don't know anything.... except that my laptop is small and the picture is small.

I kinda figgered the two might be connected.

I hope your laptop is connected to its screen.

Hell I don't even know how many teeth I GOT, and they're embedded in my head............

I started doing it then I realized it was 50 questions and I was like HELL NO. I'm too intoxicated.

Is it me, or would that be funnier if we could HEAR you saying it!

 

[TheRoadVirus]

Well, I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to typing.. so I go back as many times as I need to get it right.

 

[TheRoadVirus]

Damnit, I come across this thread again and I'm still drunk.. errr.. drunk again. And yea, it would be funnier if you heard me say it.. <yells> lol.
