Right chaps,

Sorry about that!!!

So, if you want to re-upload your pics then great, if not, give us something new!


Cheers!!

The grommet strip is definitely there, I remember doing it. The cable does not touch any sharp edges.

your forgetting that your one hole makes it very difficult to pull 50m+ cable through it

i understand that fully. the thing about college is, wouldn't it be better to do trunking? never cut a single piece at college and done loads at work

Round and round in circles we go...

We have done quite a lot of both cable tray and trunking at College. It all depends on which one you go to!

zZZZZZzzzzz god how can this possible keep going. It was a college piece

Don't matter how brill your work is when you post it on here someone will pick a fault with it, especially all the eggsperts on here

We have done trunking too, on the Steel Trunking task, and the big test piece which incorporates steel and plastic trunking, steel and plastic conduit, singles, T&E, SWA, one and two-way light switching (see, we do learn 2-way switching at college! ), and ring and radial sockets circuits. This was the MI/Steel tray task.

I'm still frankly amazed that no one has taken the ---- out of the bits of this task which aren't that great!

They can't see past a hole! :smilielol5:

It's not just a hole, its a gate way to a parallel universe where people just shut the f up and don't whinge over tiny little details.

The comments being made, is i think that students are being taught at collage, practices that just won't work out in the real world. Perhaps most of the comments about whingeing over minor details are from those that wouldn't know any different and have never installed a complete cable tray installation. Those that have, will understand the implications off using ''holes'' for change of direction etc!!

Agreed,

Things are often taken out of context, this is "one" solution to a problem - there are many, many more!

With this example he doesn't have to pull through 50mtrs cable etc, etc. Is that not the whole point of learning . . . Learn the underpinning knowledge, learn various ways to do things, engage brain, and apply the solution that you (with said knowledge) see fit?

Here's my finest work yet. I'm sure you'll all agree its a masterpiece.
