Project: Toroidal Wear Tester To Investigate: Erosion Rate of Pipeline Materials due to Different Slurry Flows

We both were already deep into our individual final-year academic thesis. Supervisors are assigned to each student by lottery. Thus, we had slim chance of teaming up together and involve the toroid project into our academic thesis. We were fully aware of that and embraced the opportunity to work on a different research project, toward… Read more

Meantime, we could not afford to invest in buying safety equipment, nor were able to replace faulty/risky power-tools. So, we had to be extra careful with our dealings and had our… Read more

Sometimes even we pitched-in to finish his daily job-orders early. So that, he would have more time to devise with us after work.… Read more
