The last Rivet!
Here's one that is so old but thought I would throw it out anyway... Does anyone know where the last rivet is placed on a ship back when they used rivets??

Or, as in my case, you always manage to find what you were looking for last time, not what you are looking for now!

Re: The last Rivet!
Oh thats a lame ! Eheheheh.
We had a guy on one of the boats I use to work on. His shtickk was asking where was the smallest check valve located. Of course most would spend days trying to figure it out. After a few days of feeling like an idiot, he would hold up his ball point pen. Jerk... but technically true.

Re: The last Rivet!
Maybe there should be an Engineering Jokes forum?
Reminds me of some toilet graffitti in South Shields Marine College in the early 70's.
Thre was a drawing of a rampant bolt chasing a beautifully drawn nut, that was saying "NO, NO, NOT without a washer!"
