i never expected to have one week holiday for this raya because before this we had a lot of holidays already. plus im slacking. so more and more holidays will make no difference.
last couple of weeks was fcuked by this Machine Design project. hate u lots! (kenny, remember this phrase?) to come out with a gear box design with the desired safety factor. spent like a few days to do the calculations, got hooked by microsoft excel. in my life, i never came across this tough of project. i considered this as the toughest project ever.
* This is only part of the shyt calculations on excel.
failure occurs when
1. your shaft diameter is bigger than the gear diameter. DESIGN FAILED!
2. your key's factor of safety bigger than other components. DESIGN FAILED!
3. your bearing does not fit your shaft diameter. DESIGN FAILED!
4. your gear ratio exceeded 33:1. DESIGN FAILED!
5. your design came out with high safety factor aand wasting material. DESIGN FAILED!
not only this. we also had to draw the shyt lame gear box using Pro E. all the components plus our own casing design.
* This is the casing for gear box i could design.
the value of the lesson here is, always start the project early. not to say i did it last minute but everyone was doing that. the problem was dont know where to start.
luckily in the end i managed to submit it in time. God bless.
so now what's going on? negotiating with IMu fella about a friendly. this IMU like all medic affairs. pharma not involving huh? anyway, that's imu problem. just like malaysia gov problem, singapore gov cannot interfere. because later UN will send troops to 'menjaga keamanan'.
i give them date. they settle. place will be decided again. expenses divided by two. sorry lah david, see yourself can join them or not. go make good good friend with Ren yi loh. thanks to david for the phone number also.
anyway, for your information, we're in our business for next year UNITEN OPEN 2009. dont worry my badminton buddies in north, south and far east (ah siong) malaysia, we will send our invitations to you all in january next year. this is our first time and also my first time to become the director for this tournament. hopefully we can host it well. i wil make MMU as our example, and my target is to do better than them, MMU have been doing great in organising tournament like yearly MMU master and Siti hasmah cup. it will be the last event before i retire.
next weekend will turun ke seremban together with utar players for another event. sometimes im worried also, like busy but i still can play.
kampateh/gambateh people!
