Hi Everyone, this is another update on the trials and tribulations of my journey through an 8 week boxing program. First let's get the bad out of the way. We did some sparring this weekend. It didn't go well for me. I've used this image before, it pretty much sums up what happened. The good... Continue Reading →
There are only five weeks left until fight night, thats just 35 days before I'm in a ring with someone trying to punch me in the face and me trying to do the same to them. This realisation was a bit of a shock to me, even though I have a count down on my... Continue Reading →
OK, so real sparring started on Saturday, I'm feeling it today. It consisted of what seems like an hour of me getting punched in the face. Want to know a secret, I kind of liked it, not enough that I want it to happen often, but enough that I'm not too scared of it anymore. ... Continue Reading →
Ok not a big update but a frustrating one. I'm not technically injured I just feel like it. Prickly Heat - where your body is telling you you've not sweat much before, so I'm going to make you look ugly with an all over body rash and itch like a bugger to try to put... Continue Reading →
Hi Everyone, I'm back again, finally, with a blog post about a boxing event (not lean or design, sorry). Life got in the way, Hen-Do (for the wife), Stag-Do (for me) and finishing up with a wedding, but I'm back now. Let’s get down to business - I'm taking part in a Charity Boxing event...

As you may know the Autodesk applications manager is a content delivery solution for all of your product updates.  It sits in the bottom corner of your PC popping up every now and again with a big list of all of the updates available for your products, which is great.  It kept your Autodesk software up to date with service packs, hotfixes and security updates, unfortunately it lumped everything together in one long list and could be quite frustrating if you only used Inventor from your product design suite but there were updates for all of the other software packages in the list that you had to go through to get to the ones you actually needed.
With the release of Autodesk’s 2017 (and backwards to 2015 releases) product offerings this system is being replaced with the Autodesk Desktop Application. It’s the same thing; content delivery, but different, granular updates…

I woke up this morning, looked out of the window and saw the weather. It's a rotten day outside. It's rain and sleet, the sky is gray and you know what I just don't care. Today is the day I get married to the person I fell in love with the first time I saw... Continue Reading →
Autodesk Inventor uses Extensible Mark-up Language (XML) files as a means of storing style information externally from Autodesk documents. Styles have been stored externally using XML since the 2012 release. This is to reduce file bloating on larger assemblies. Imagine if you will, a 10000 part assembly with a different set of styles stored in each individual part.... Continue Reading →
What is Praxis? First of all it’s a Medieval Latin/Greek word for convention, habit or custom, or a set of examples for practice. It’s also a new cloud based workflow visualisation tool from Autodesk. Why does Praxis matter? I have 4 kids, watching these chaos monsters do the simplest tasks is sometimes frustrating. Why...
