Cheapskate Carriages "backwards"?

Post by jeffhuber »

Hello!

Another question from me. I seem to have assembled the cheapskate carriages backwards.

as opposed to taking them apart, is it ok if i construct the backs "backward" as well to make it work?
(yes i know this means our seemecnc logo friend will be looking the wrong direction)

thanks!

You guys should laser a 3rd hole on one side or etch a word onto the pieces so that it's more obvious to those of us who like to skim instructions :)

My week started with three hours worth of dry heaves, so I'll just wish THAT on the skimmer crowd. :D

Instructions are just manufacturers reccomendations to be used when you get stuck or a hammer won't fix it.

We get that all the time from our railroad customers.

He would just dry heave the heck out of new printed manuals and add a scratch and sniff so everyone would get an idea how sick he was.
The problem being that the skimmers would not bother with the scratch and sniff....no solution except if you don't read the manual don't come on the
forum and tell us that the manual is wrong.
