No you are not. You are learning from your mistakes, and hopefully teaching others in the process.NibblyPig said: I am a moron

Just wanted to add- I work in the oil and gas industry. You wouldn’t believe how often industrial pipe fitters leave bungs in pipe fittings, not to be discovered until trying to commission - “oh, we can’t get a flow through this new pipeline, I wonder why...”. These things happen, you’re not a moron, you know to check next time, a job well done! 😁NibblyPig said:
