t00fri & the Monster Whiteboard...

Well,

here is another amazing everyday story ;-)

Since quite a few weeks, I am having our library in the 4th floor renovated, turning it into a multi-functional space for physics discussion, cappuccino drinking and meetings...In this context I had ordered two GIGANTIC whiteboards, one being even more monstruous than the other one. As it had to happen, the men who were charged to bring that monster whiteboard to our 4th floor, failed because of a FEW MILLIMETERS!! Please note: MILLIMETERS...

Hmmm...too bad ...this monster was pretty expensive, since it was specially made for us and hence certainly hard to get rid of as a second hand item ;-)

So I consulted our chief building engineer who has a reputation of liking such kind of challenges. Indeed, with a smile, he promised that by next morning the monster whiteboard will hang safely in its place...

Here is a shot with my handy camera of what had happened before I indeed could admire that whiteboard peacefully suspendend where it belonged!

Note that the whiteboard just fitted through ONE of our library windows in the 4th floor in diagonal position with 1cm of space ALTOGETHER ;-)

Bye Fridger

Hmm,

Let's hope you're not also responsible for ordering the monster accelerators. :wink:
