Wouldn't it be a good pool of resources if we could exchange our skills in workshops arranged free of charge.
Get in wheel builders, bike mechanics and frame builders. We could all save a packet too.
Opinions?
Lets take away the dark arts!
Eh?
It's only a dark art if your(sic) retarded 😉
Not retarded m8. Engineers like to make concepts incomprehensible at times. Read the same text on Calculus from a maths teacher and an engineer and you'll see where i'm coming from.
Will either of the texts help you build a frame ?
Eh?
It ain't calculus and it ain't engineering.
It's pushbikes,not rocket science.
So to re-iterate. It isn't engineering?
Everything to do with the construction of bikes is mainly mechanical engineering.
Oh yeah. Calculus has many applications in cycling too. Food for thought.
You win.
I concede.
I will take a calculator to work with me in the morning.
Many thanks.

Designing bikes is mechanical engineering. Assembling them is just mechanicking.
Misery guts Rorschach.
Anything that can be unscrewed I'm Ok with. It's press fit stuff that confuses me.
