Team aluminum all the way. A higher up where I work is obsessed with stainless steel, he gets these monstrous heavy duty tables made out of SS that hold objects 1/3 of their weight. Makes lab rearranging a nightmare lol.
If you really want to stop the stainless steel obsession, you could start cleaning the benches with bleach and not rinsing again afterwards. The corrosion will set in quickly.
Aluminum will stain, but it won't start rusting.
I'll just get a spray bottle of mercury and fuck your aluminium assface right up.
We seem to be at an impasse, my stainless steel ass face. How about a compromise: we return to asbestos!
Not at all makes it ideal for a bunch of different applications.
Vehicle frame is not really one of them.
I just spent 4 hours renaming every instance of "aluminum" into "aluminium" in a bunch of inventor projects. >.>
Thank you for your service to the objectively superior spelling!
Australian business with australian standards. I wish we had a script for this :(
He's right, though. I can't think of a metal more versatile than aluminium
Non drinkable metals are just lame. You cannot even make a good cocktail without Mercury or Gallium.
Back in my younger days I joined a flat earth gang. Real fun guys. It was mostly just a dudes hanging out together, talking shit, and doing petty crimes.
One day we come across this dude and he starts going all in on us and how stupid we are. Shows up some stupid video of some nerd debunking us and talking shit to us. Darnell, one of the guys in the group is getting a bit agitated but this dude keeps talking shit to us and calling us dumb. Next thing you know Darnell sucker punches the guy and a couple of the other guys starts wailing on the guy. I joined in too because I wanted to support my friends. The last thing the guy heard was Darnell saying, 'take his ass to the edge'.
But seriously making the body pannels out of stainless steel and the frame out of aluminum would be a hilarious joke among 2nd year engineering students about what happens when you let the sales people make the specs.
I can't think of many things you encounter every day that just use straight iron. Only alloys that use iron
Meanwhile, you'll use very pure aluminum all the time
Sounds like aluminum is a loner and iron plays well with others. I'd bet there is still more iron encountered every day than aluminum even if the aluminum is pure and the iron is alloyed.
I was super confused when I read "loaner", I thought you meant loaning as in like borrowing. But then I realized you meant "loner". Lol
Perhaps so, but one might argue that human tech relies more on iron than any other metal - because of its magnetic properties. We need iron to generate and manipulate electricity.
Team Stainless Steel all the way. Strong and tougher than that weak aluminum shit.
...anodised aluminium beats stainless steel in every application except hardness...
I still can't believe there's people pronouncing it aluminium instead of aluminium
