Hi All,
Finally found a use for a bottle of Tipp-Ex today. In the late 20th Century they were used for correcting type written & Handwritten errors in the early 21st they take up room until today...
Creating a surface to write on a piece of kit when you have no marker pens! Hmmm I can now write on
most anything!! The possibilty for Graffiti abounds! If I paint it white and wait 5-10mins (![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) )...

It's also useful when you are forging canister Damascus - it makes it easier to remove the canister once the content is bonded.

I like watching people who know what they are doing do what they are good at!* I'm not planning on becoming a smith - I went into computers because it was indoor work with no heavy lifting, after all - but it's good to see people who care. I preferred Jason Knight to J Nielson though.
* It's so refreshing after a lifetime of watching people who haven't a clue f'ing everything up and not knowing why it all went to sh*t.
Out of interest, have you seen this: Forged in Fire: J. Neilson Teaches Wil and Doug to Forge (Season 3) | History - YouTube[^] (SFW)

Won't argue with you there.
It's one of those things I watch because it's so completely opposite of me. It's pretty cool what someone (that knows what they're doing) can accomplish it that time frame. No, I've not see that link will take a look, thanks.
PS 'Yes, this blade will kill' -- great line.

As a further tip (for those who don't have their local version of White-out).
There are a type of pens, usually silver, gold, and copper 'inks' that actually write with paint. I used these to write on floppies (51/4, 31/2) as well as metal and glass. It's quite opaque (and removable). I believe other colors are available. The one's I refer to are US$1 - $2, each.
Another item writes (almost) anywhere are pens like a Rapidograph, loaded with India Ink. I used to use these in lab to label volumetric flasks. Resistant to any solvent washes off pretty easily.
This for when your other stuff runs out.

You mean to say that you don't want to use it the traditional way and correct typos on your screen?

Sometimes I have a discussion (like just now) and we are both seemingly in agreement.
But both side have to keep explaining their side because... the other guy don't seem to understand...
Does it ever happen to you?
It just happened to me and I wonder.. what is wrong with me? Is my foreign accent confusing people? oh well...

You are turning into a manager. The transformation is slow, but in the end you will not be able to listen at all and argue with a steady stream of buzzwords. Have you been bitten by one recently? Other signs are a strong allergic reaction to garlic, sunlight and holy water.

You must learn to understand the other sides goals. Often managers have other goals or orders and only are discussing to be polite and to "play" that you are respected.
In truth are some decision already taken but you arent yet informed.
