Monthly Tutorials

[greenwire]

So, i've been thinking lately.. the same questions get asked a lot on this board, and they don't always get answered completely.

What about setting up monthly tutorials? Like, get a bunch of the members who really know what they're doing to take pictures of their latest projects, and post their notebooks and drawings and pictures up online. I know i keep decent notebooks, all i'd have to do is take pictures.

I think i'm going to do a tutorial for plastic dashboard modding, all different routes, from bondo+glass, to solvent adhesives to thermoforming.

Anyone else down?

That would be awesome!

Great idea! If I can think of anything I know enough about to do a writeup on then I would gladly contribute.

here is my notebook (sorry I couldnt resist)

Whatever notebook you use, i'm sure it'd be helpful..

I keep notebooks as a habit, they've come in handy on more than one occasion... but yeah, i'm in the process of making one. I'm thinking they should all be edited for accuracy by a couple people that really know what they're talking about, and they should all be formatted the same way so people can follow them step by step...

I was actually thinking the same thing... was hoping he would offer to do it for me, cause I'd rather be flaming my own threads.

I was bloody waiting for that!

Actually it should be 'how to postwhore 1000 posts in 1 week' - that is my record!

I was in fact going to offer some tutorials on:

*servo contol systems and mechanisms

*upgrading your Xenarc backlight (in collaboration with JCdillins 'upgrading your lilliput backlight')

*'British humour for our American cousins'

and a few others but now i won't bother
