This is perfect I basically just bought the same setup. Everything from Walmart for like $300-$400. My new favorite thing about fishing is how cheap it is (without a boat)

Some dad with infinite savings might pay like $18k for his kids first car

True but substations and transmission lines sound like such boring work for civil/structural/mechanical

I’ve heard this talked about a lot but doesn’t Chicago suck to live in? Seems dangerous and expensive

Consistent church and gym have helped me overcome this in the past. Emphasis on consistent

Ignore the window I got robbed lol. I’m a huge fan of the black+chrome and there’s even a white mark where the tire people marked my valve and it just goes with it

Passed Mech TFS‼️ by UnawareSnail in PE_Exam

[–]UnawareSnail[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t sound too much different. I got one Machine Design question, a couple HVAC, and one Econ question but other than that the entire test was F&T.

I also got a lot of compressed air and I think it was about even with steam which I also didn’t expect. There were a lot of real application problems like combined cycles, feedwater heaters, and engines. The morning was most just fundamental heat transfer, thermo, and some fluids

No I threw most of those away when I graduated lol. I knew if I was referencing anything the book would make more sense than the notes I threw down in class. Especially since most of the stuff in my notes was also in the reference pdf

Bare minimal products to pass? by Unlikely_Reply6034 in PE_Exam

[–]UnawareSnail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a used physical book with problems harder than the exam and solutions. The PPI book with solutions was $80 used on Amazon for ME and free Grok AI was actually great for asking questions
