    As an engineer, it is sometimes part of the job to judge angles and other things by eye, no time to go find the set square or level, we just want to get this job running and doesn't matter too much if a right angle isn't just exact, so I get plenty of practice, hence why such a good score. It might actually have been better if I hadn't needed or been wearing the vari focal glasses.

    Certainly wasn't an engineer Match.
    You may have heard of Jerry builders, well that was probably built by Jerry himself.

    My guess it was probably built by some Engineer who thought his Eye was more accurate than a Tape measure, Spirit and Water Levels. :snckr:

    That is neat. Took a bit of remembering what some of the terms meant in the instructions, but it was fun. Thanks for sharing.
