Rebuilding a Rebuild
There have been several times I have build something, after having been disassembled my myself mostly, and I have parts left over. Lets see, twice today I have had that happen.
The upside is that you know what the part looks like. So, you don’t have to rebuild a transmission if you have a extra piston in your hand.
Harder yet, is when you have not left over parts and it does not work. Then you have to make sure everything was put together correctly. Did I build it right?
But, the MOST HARD is when there is a part missing, but you don’t know what part or where it goes, or even that there is a missing part. Where do you start.
I had a program giving my serious brain cramps this morning. Turns out I was missing a “return” statement which ends a program function. In turn, the program would execute the open ended function and then execute the next function which undid the first open ended function……
Sorry, in other words, it is hardest to find the stupidest mistakes.
