Who am I?

Posted by tomasz in Work

An average guy with some:

Standard deviations

  1. Computers - full time programmer, web developper, debugger etc. Need more details? See my CV.
  2. Cars - hobby car mechanic. There is verry little I can not do by myself - mostly because lack of “one time use very expensive special tool” need situations.
  3. Iza - latest deviation. More soon.

And some not so standard:

  1. “The why guy” - asking thousands detailed questions about everything. Usually remembering answers and pointing out every single inconsistence in testimonials.
  2. “An engineer” - some things you can’t learn (unless not on the universities) - you have to be born with them or get them in your very first days. You can’t learn how to be an engineer. If those things don’t passionate you, if you aren’t eager to understand them, if it’s eunough for you to have it working no matter how - you aren’t an engineer even if your business card says so.

If that doesn’t scare you, feel free to join.

    Tomasz,
    I want to thank you for posting the CB installation method for the ZJ. I was going crazy trying to find something that I could do to get a radio in my Heep just for talking to other members of the 4X group that I travel with and also geocache with. I have a hand held but that really sucks. I used your ideas and modified them to suit my rigid quality standards.

    Again, many thanks for posting this installation. I have also done up my installation but don’t have a place to post it like you do. I would like to send you my file of the way I did my installation so you could compare notes as it were. But at least you can see the different things that I did with your basic installation technique. But to send you the Word document that I made up, I need a valid email address. Only the text will be shown if I paste it here and no pictures. So could you reply to this so that I can get your email address to send you my file? I tried to put in very detailed instructions on how I did this installation.

    The file I plan to send is titled: CB Antenna Mount On a ZJ.doc

    And again, thanks so much posting your installation. It really helped me out. I will be looking really hard at your winch installation next. Another sano install and it looks like you didn’t slash cut a bunch of the original stuff to mount it.
