The world has gone mad with all this diversion, inclusion and discrimination b*****ks. Its just another good excuse for the lawyers to get even richer.

Anyhow back to the thread, another simple good tip that serves well - measure twice cut once! I'm overseeing a large project and we have had some architectural drawings done by a professional structural engineer. I was just about to send the drawings into the steel fabricators so they could order the pre cut materials. luckily I checked the drawings and found a measurement discrepancy which would have cost a fair whack and delayed the project. It turned out to be a "software" glitch on cad!

An update to this vacuum pedantry...

While Hoover is indeed a brand name that should not be used as a generic term, it is possible to Hoover with any brand of vacuum cleaner as many dictionaries (including Oxford) define Hoover (verb) thus: 'To clean something with a vacuum cleaner'.
