The best suggested add on parts. Those parts will go on my shopping list, thanks
That is for sure a parts list. Did you have to import everything or are some available in Canada?
Hi guardsman (& anyone else who's interested/doesn't yet know) if you are replying to a particular post (that isn't just the last post in the thread, & so will end up immediately before/above your reply
) like you seem to be doing in both of the posts above, it might pay to either identify the poster you are responding to by including their username in your text, as I have in this post; or click on the '
"Reply with Quote' button down in the bottom left corner of their post so that it brings their post down into your reply as a quote. :thumbup: That way, readers can clearly follow the flow of the thread, and won't need to guess which earlier post you are responding to... cos without doing that, your posts that clearly refer to something posted earlier are left sorta just hanging there... :dontknow:
If you want to go really high tech and respond to
more than one earlier post at the same time in your reply, as you can see above that I have done in
this post, then simply tick the little "
quote symbol with +" that's down in the bottom Right corner of each of the earlier posts you wish to reply to (only please, select no more than a few at a time!) then select the red '
+ Reply to Thread' button down in the bottom Left under the last post in the thread. That'll bring all of those selected posts into your reply as quotes, just like yours appear in this post up there ^^.
hyea:
And just by-the-by, you don't
necessarily need to quote and include
ALL of a long post (like most of mine...
) in your reply if you are only going to be referring to one small part of it in your reply - once you've got the entire quote down into your Reply window, you can either select and highlight the small part that you want to refer to by bolding or underlining it via the buttons above your text entry field (it'll already be in italics as a quote anyway, so don't try to do that again again, it doesn't work it help at all! :sour: ) or you can edit out/delete the unnecessary/not applicable parts of the quote -
just make sure that you leave the QUOTE command delimiters AND all of their square brackets ( [ - ] )at the beginning and end of the remaining bits of the quote you want to keep. If you disturb those command delimiters in the square brackets at the beginning and end of the quote, then once you submit your reply, the quote won't appear as it should and may easily appear to be or be confused as a part of
your text. Oh, and please don't use the square brackets for anything else - the Forum software will try to recognise anything inside square brackets as a command delimiter, and
that may mess up your post, the whole thread, or possibly even the Forum software as it tries to work out whatever the heck it is that you're trying to tell it to do! :shocked: So leave the square brackets alone, there's others you can use if necessary, like
( -
) or
{ -
} :thumbup:
Over to you (& anyone else who may have gained a bit more insight into how to use the Forum tools!) :cheers:
Enjoy!!
