Been thinking about either buying a viewsonic 28" LCD which retails around $700-800 while the Samsung 30" retails for $1800-2000. Anyone has one or recommend of one? i current have a samsung 22". LCD made by samsung is pretty good, clear and sharp not 100% sure about viewsonic

I'm leaning toward the viewsonic there's not a huge size difference 2" but with a huge price difference. Its mainly for design so the bigger the screen the better as there's more room for my colour pallets tools etc.

What's the clarity of the viewsonic screen like? it is sharp and bright?

what are you using it for? a monitor or a TV?

I bought one of those 28" viewsonics for ~7xx and it was pretty good..would make an good monitor..it is damn bright..the white is really good.

however..as a TV..it has no remote..and you need a tuner....plus it started making this buzzing noise so I returned it less than a week later. decided I will save money and get a proper plasma/lcd...

the other thing is that its an older 6bit LCD screen, and it doesnt have a terribly great viewing angle (again not a huge issue if you use it as a monitor)

I'd say the quality of the display from a viewsonic is pretty much the same as most of the "known brands".

Oh, and I managed to do all my design work on my 17'' Phillips LCD :D

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.

      Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.

      Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!

      Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
