Does anyone else work on their RC car at work?

Just currently equalising and charging my cells for racing tonight in an open plan office.

I remember the most challenging piece of work was when my diff rebuild kit arrived in the morning post, and I needed the diff rebuilt by the time I got to racing at 6 pm on the night.

I've charged before but never did any physical work on the car.

Guilty. Very guilty.

But I'm at work so I can't divulge details. Our engineering workshop guys love me.

can do cleaning / setup / assembly work :) but no batteries :(

I work @ an online oil refinery. But not today I'm on 1 of 5, 18 day shift breaks we get a year. They call it full-time work but it's more like part-time. I'm never there :)

If the IB's went up so to might the plants 600lb hydrogen main and that would be LOUDER than an IB if it went up. Most of the UK would know about it :D

i have, being an engineer all the tools we have here at work make working on the cars far easier. Ive built my kits and even made a losi xxx into a mid motor conversion at work. and the weller soldering irons work better when soldering cells :D

Got my own office so discharging, equalizing and charging are regular occurrences on a Wednesday before my club meets. ;)
