    I suppose the joke is built in without having an answer. It's all I could come up with today. Read it again and I bet you'll get it the second time.

    You could have done worse :thumbsup:

    I think a lot of idiots will find the answer at 2nd thought (like me - @Charlemagne1333 you are not alone ::facepalm2::)

    It depends on the thread pitch that was incorporated into the candle mold and cut into the base of the holder, the diameter of the candle, the shortest distance between the candle and the walls, and the desired torque value.

    (there are a bunch of engineers on this forum; it's easy enough to arrive at an answer if you provide us with the proper information)

    Just wanted to take this opportunity to thank the OF community. I've learned so much here over the few months that I've been hanging around and have just taken the plunge on a watch that I would certainly have never realised was so special without the education this place has given me. It's an HMT, redialed in Switzerland.

    A dog walks into a bar, and orders a double brandy

    “Wow!”, exclaims the barman, “you should be in a circus.”

    “Why?”, asks the dog, “are they looking for electricians?”
