Ask me anything. I don't feel like coming up with a thread idea.

Lasagna, with homemade sauce that has cooked for half the day before assembling the lasagna.

Yes. I know you would. You're honest, fair and you don't take any shit of anyone.

We are approximately 93 million miles from the sun. Is that surface to surface or center to center?

Center to center. At least that's how I'd measure it being a toolmaker, but I'd have to be a lot closer than approximately

What is the captial city of Madagascar?

I don't know, but the capital of Sudan is Khartoum. Does that help any?

Where would you like to travel if time and money were no obstacles?

 

[Cormac135]

Have you ever shaved all the hair on your arsehole ?

Or indeed had someone do it for you ?

The whole Europe loop. Italy, France, Germany, Spain and the UK. I'd hire Rick Steves as a personal tour guide. I'd enjoy the backcountry tours that he does.

I have a couple times along with my balls. I just groom the rest. I don't know how I'd feel about having someone do it for me, but I have thought of having a waxing done down there.

Interesting

Iceland is generally held to be the oldest Parliament, starting in 930. The oldest continuous Parliament is the Tynwald (Isle of Man), which started in 979, although its roots go further back.

What was the worst metal that you have ever dealt with as a toolmaker?
I hated stainless, but zirconium was nasty to deal with.

I don't use a lot of exotic steels. It's usually P-20 since I'm building plastic injection molds. Stainless isn't bad if you're using good carbide mills. I really hate aluminum. I've built a couple of sample molds out of it and it's so gummy to cut.
