It's _you_ who don't really understand this stuff, because you just
looked up some data in a table, came to some uninformed conclusions
about the implications thereof, and decided everybody else is wrong.

er, no chalo.


I have made, actually made, real machines and components out of most
of the materials you presume to know so much about.

yeah, but you haven't used them!!!


I have done
things with them that no table or graph could contain.

nothing relevant.


And I have
done these things in some of the most ambitious research and
development settings the private sector has to offer.

being the machinist that presses the button on the machine that shapes something doesn't mean you know about the properties of the material or the application to which it's suited! sorry chalo, not only is that the truth, but it's a truth you keep on proving repeatedly with your fud and bull***.


Bikes are the
least of it-- they are what I make when I want to play and take it
easy. So when I use non-engineering terms like "forgiving", "sloppy",
"unreliable", or "consistent", it's based upon direct, hands-on
observation and successful or sometimes failed attempts to get these
materials to do what they are purported to do.

engineers that understand materials seldom make mistakes. sadly, it seems many don't.



You? You are just full of crap and hot gas. I'd wager you have never
worked with these materials more than to bodge them up with
sandpaper.

never even touched the stuff actually - everything i say is just the product of a fevered imagination.


Have you ever even cut one original thread?

nope, not ever. never rolled one either. never drawn a tube. never rolled a ***. never forged anything. never cast anything. never used a microscope.


Have you ever
even brazed one single fillet?

nope, not ever! isn't fillet a type of steak?


The way you talk about this stuff, you
definitely do not come across as someone who has done any of these
things. You have a lot to say about metals' internal microstructure
like it was something you personally discovered, but have you ever
been responsible for changing a metal item's microstructure? No, you
haven't.

oh, the irony of this is /so/ rich!!! how does microstructure affect mechanical properties chalo??? tell me because i obviously need to learn from a machinist!!!



So you go make a bike frame out of carbon band-aids and synthetic
boogers and ride it a while, and report back. If you haven't been
totally demoralized by the experience and you have any inclination to
make another frame, it will be made of metal, guaranteed.

what i'm demoralized by is casting pearls and finding them eaten by ignorant, closed-minded swine.
