[QUOTE]Originally posted by B.J.: [QB] I would say it's more hands-on experience than anything. A lot of the mechanics I work with are very knowledgeable, and a smart engineer knows when to ask them for advice. However, they wouldn't know where to start if asked to analyze the complex loads behind a design to see if it's good (and optimal) or not. Tyrol also had his work simplified by using off-the-shelf parts. In my mind, I'm equating it more to a car mechanic building a hot rod in his garage than an engineer designing a new car. Sure, both will run, but unless you've got a really sharp mind behind the design, the hot rod's going to be in the shop for repairs a lot more often. B.J. [/QB][/QUOTE]
