I'm an electrical/controls engineer bro. I'll really just be doing the maintenance stuff if I'm onsite. Its normally the process boys that decide what to upgrade etc and from there the other discipline will get the work done.

Ahhh ok

Thats a bloody good question! Yes Dan, what do you do in the mines???? Must be a desk job since you have a whole lot of whoring time!

;)

Yeah Ive got a desk but essentially Im half inside half outside, depends on whats happening around site and changes on a day to day basis :)

Geeezzzz that post was a bit slow since the question is answered ....

lol

Dan Yep i did environmental science

Colin, dont be upset that we get paid lots to do pretty much nothing except write reports that ever so slightly change the project...yet every one has to wait for them because of silly environmental legislation haha

Environmental consultants are only slightly less evil than the devil that is Anna Bligh. She is one dirtymotherf**kingflamin mongrelragbroad minded personface.

So do you like to be inside or outside?

Is it standard surveyor stuff while the mines are under construction or is the place your working at operational?

The place I work at is operational and has been for about 11 years in which we assist in the mining process on a daily basis, theres also a lot of "standard surveyor stuff" going on due to the u/g project kicking off and a new processing plant being built so we can re-process our tailings (the stuff that comes out of the mill whilst creating the copper concentrate powder) to extract a new found mineral called Magnetite.

Coool they get alright coinage where Im at an they do sweet FA . . . lol . . . Not having a stab I swear they really do nothing, my mates in the enviro department and he tells me every day that he sleeps at his desk . . . hahaha

Dad got sick of it too, hes now got a 100% desk job

Dan: Hahaha. You dont get what I mean do you? Never mind. Anyway Magnetite isnt a new mineral! Its use in the coal washing process for ages. Maybe a "new" mineral on the site you're working on but the mineral itself isnt new. Its used to change the density of the slurry and since they're magnetic, you can recover them at the product and rejects.

Oh, and heads up Tristian, i offered Dan your body if he brings the skyline up when he is back home!

Hope thats ok ........

:)

i hope tristian knows,

i however, tristan, don't mind ;)

;)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
