I have a piece of wood clamped on a little stool, put a old big electric motor on the stool so it wont move and put the shifter on the plank. Have it there for more than 3 years now, works perfect.
Do you know that you don't have to melt metal to make it weak. For example copper loses most of it's strength if heated over 140 or 150 degrees celcuis. So you don't need to melt (as in making it liquid) metal for it to lose it's strength
EDIT: here a little pic to for the graphical minds.
When I talk about the community in total, nothing personal i talk about the people in general, in average. I also never moaned and I also still enjoy lfs, if i wasn't I wouldn't even be posting here .
Beavy joined HIS server where he is THE MAN, a god among us mere mortals, the boss and what else would you expect from such a great wonderfull person than this:
I think you'll find that more incidents take place while a driver is phoning then there are with drunk drivers. However this is the damage caused by the actions, not the risk.
Because:
damage = risk(possibility/chance) x quantity (number of drivers in said condition)
There are many many more people phoning while driving than there are drunk drivers. Therefor it's possible that more accidents happen with people who phone while driving than with drunk drivers. Even though the risks of phoning while driving are lower.
Mathematical example (numbers made up by me purely for explaining:
Damage by drink driving:
Damage = risk(0.0001) x quantity (7,000,000) = 700 incidents per year
Damage by phoning while driving:
Damage = risk (0.00001) x quantity (300,000,000) = 3000 incidents per year
As you can see the risk of a incident while phoning is 10 times lower than it is with drink driving. Yet the number of incidents are 4.2 more than with drink driving.
Thank you for your attention. And sorry if i misunderstood anybody.
I've done 57k km with my g25 and g27. Got g27 as warranty replacement because the shifter wasn't working properly anymore and the steering would go off-center. However I've done all the 57k km with the pedals from the G25. However the throttle was sqeeking and were full of dust. I reversed the pedals (because it is more real) so they are hanging upside down. took most of the dust of, stops dust getting in the mechanism and the sqeeking also stopped after a while .
In your situation I would contact Logitech for warranty.
