No idea what it's for...

But the photocopier seems to work better without it rattling around in the cogs.

It's probably some manky paper guide or something. I'd say you were wise to remove it, theres usually lots of spare bits on a photocopier that aren't actually used!

It probably got broken off when somebody was photocopying their nether regions; those things really aren't strong enough to take a 23 stone woman sitting on them.

Have you washed your hands, or rather claws?

First Hedghogs, now photocopiers. Is there no end tyo your talents ZG?

They've a new photocopier here. It came with 18 cds. Well it's a printer and scanner too. But 18 cds?

Anyways, they've spent all week setting it up, and it's still not playing.

The Engineers, three of them, have gone for lunch, so I've just been and removed a piece of plastic. I'm sure it will help.

It would appear not... I've just built & tested a Class AB audio amplifier too...

You are so right... it's currently disipating about 12W for an output of about 2W... I can't turn the voltage up any further because the heatsink gets too hot to touch.

This is all part of your latest cunning plan isn't it ZG. Build hugely inneficient devices to warmt he planet up enough that Giant Alien Lizard Kind will find it hospitable enough to colonise permanently!

I have found that everything works better with a few bits removed. The manufacturers just put them there to test us.

PS Just replaced the valve in my downsatairs bog cistern. Works ok but now there's a leak, can you pop round and fix it? Ta.
