Hi Vince,

Thanks for merging all my 6 episodes into one technical article, however I hope you would not mind rearranging section 3 & 4 to go before 5 & 6.
Right now it goes 1, 2, 5, 6, 3, 4...

Thanks for the trouble and sorry for the trouble. I also 're-discovered' the tech section again....

Best regards,

Jules

Holy poop

Vince,

I got it wrong... The way it is now is 1, 2, 5, 6 , 3, 4, 6 cor and it should be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 cor
So please remove the old section 6 and replace it with 6 cor (corrected) and re-arrange 3 & 4 to come after 1 and 2. Really sorry for the trouble...

Best regards and many thanks again

Oh oh Vince, you won't believe this...

Thanks ever so much for making it into one article.

However reading it again I found some mistakes, that I am not sure of how they sneaked in, but some photographs and text are not lined up correctly (section 3 : correct text but wrong pictures)...
So I am remaking all 6 sections again, post them and hopefully all you need to do after that is only merge them...
It will also allow me to adjust some minor details.

Really sorry for the trouble and extra work.

Thanks and regards, Jules.

Thanks but please make sure its right this time... lots of my time was spent on rearranging and editing this. In the future, you can just reply to your own post and all of these will appear in one thread.

Vince,

I am really sorry man, I just did not know that by replying to my own mail 'they would appear in one thread'.

How is that work ? I could not add more than 5 pictures per post and not sure how they would merge into one thread ?

There is a reason it went wrong the first time:
I wanted to send them in order part 1, part 2 etc, but found out they end up in the list the wrong way (2 on top and 1 below it), so I started from part 6 backwards, but somehow 5 ended up before 6, probably because I thought 6 was sent successfully, while it was not sent...

As you can see; it all is in the correct order now: 1,2 3,4,5&6

I'll donate with PayPal to hopefully ease the pain a little for all the trouble. I know you did not do it because of the money, but I do feel bad about someone else having to correct my mistakes and spending time on it

Best regards,
Jules

You do it just like you made this post. You hit reply on your last and make another post.

Sorry you will have to make a new post "3". I tried to merge it but something went wrong that I can't figure out. Make a new 3 and I will merge it.

Thanks.

Vince,

Some things are so simple, you just wonder how one looks right over it...

Anyway, again I found texts aligned with the wrong pictures and all not in the right order.
Please allow me to make changes again and once I have corrected my own stuff and it is all ready, I will ask you to 'lock' it for the tech section
Meanwhile I'll make a part 3 again.

Thanks and best regards,

Jules

Hey, sorry but something has really gone wrong and I've spent over an hour dealing with this today and cant put any more time into this right now. The system will not allow me to re-order the posts because of time-codes.

You will have to edit the main post the way you want it. Just click on the "edit" button on the right of each post and make changes as you need to. Please do not make a new post outside of that thread. You can just hit "reply" within that thread if you want to add another post to it.

Please, no one else add anything to the clutch post until he is finished.

Thanks.

Vince,

This is too hard for me right now, section 3 is missing and all the text for part 6 is missing.
I am not going to be able to repair this and so I ask you to completely remove it from the posts.
I will do it again, as I now know how to add all the sections together, by replying to my own post and so create a new post.

Sorry for all the wasted effort you spent on this, basically teaching me how to use this forum properly...

Thanks and regards,

Jules

Ok, sorry about that. I tried the best I could but merging posts is actually very difficult to do in the correct order. I was trying to copy and paste one post over into another but it wont carry over the photo files without reloading them all... etc., and some info simply disappeared and I have no idea why. It should be easier but the system isn't perfect.

OK thanks man,

It'll take a few days, as I am preparing for a big holiday in Japan over 2 weeks...
But great idea to leave it here, so I can copy the texts etc...
Have to do it in spurts and go's.

Thanks

Thanks for going to the trouble. It should encourage someone who was too scared to take it on before!
