Darwin & Perth

Posted on in Blog
Flew into Darwin from Alice Springs – 2 hours north. Even landing at 7pm you can feel the heat and humidity difference.

The next day off to see some aboriginal art and buy some.  Then on a bus to Cullen to catch a ferry to an island North of Darwin.

Dinner is at Mindil beach to watch the sunset.

Perth

What day is it and where am I?

Wednesday so it must be Perth. Distinctly cooler than Darwin – by about 15c.  If you travel by bus within certain boundaries it is free!!  Perth is also the first city to have free wi-fi available wherever you are – hats off to them for that.  I would also like to thank the lady who gave me directions to the train station when I was looking lost – people in Australia come up to you and ask the question as opposed to you having to ask them. It is very refreshing.

Having found the station it was off to Fremantle on the train – a 30 minute journey - which is about 20km down the Swan river and is the Major port for Western Australia. A couple of claims to fame for Fremantle.

It was where the America’ cup yacht – Australia II – was conceived and designed and became the first vessel to win the America’s cup which is the oldest international sporting trophy in the world. America had held the trophy since the first race held in England off the Isle of Wight in 1851. The yacht was revolutionary for its winged keel and is on display in the Fremantle Maritime museum.

For those of you – like me – who have an affectation for heavy rock/metal – it is also where Scott Bonham, who was the lead singer with AC/DC from 1974 until his death in London in 1980, lived  after his family had emigrated from Scotland in the 1950’s. There is a statue of him near the beach.

It then began to rain!!   - desperately needed in Australia

More to see and do before the Saturday night flight back to the UK.

  • On Demand Demo - Tooling Master Module

    On Demand Demo - #3 Tooling Master Module

    Posted on in

    The tool master is the central repository for all things related to the production of a part through the use of reusable components such as patterns, core boxes, permanent molds, investment casting molds, and such things as trim dies, dead-heads, and rider or adapter plates.

    Tooling is all about the tracking the life of the tooling, inspecting, controlling the movements, cost of the tooling including on-going costs through movement and repairs, revisions, and CAR’s or Problems.

    With the introduction of the maintenance management equipment module several years ago, calibration and other quality instruments are typically now defined within that module.
