Laminar Air Flow Ordered!

Finally... the LAF has been ordered today. I went to ERLA office at Seri Kembangan after Jumaat prayer to pay the deposit. One of the staff took care of the payment and issued the receipt.

H - 'Can't you make it fast? 2 weeks rather than 3?'
L - 'No, cannot. Minimum 3 weeks'.

Hmm... just wait! But what's next?

Receipt for the 50% deposit

Some More Cash Please...

Hmm.. Jo called me for some cash to finish the work. Duuh...doesn't he know that I 'will or supposedly' pay the full amount once the job is completed? I guess RM500 is enough and the balance I shall pay when it's completed.

2nd progress payment

Finally Got It but Not the One I Expected...

Bila la Mikhail nak bagi quotation ni! I have been asking everyday. Yesterday, he told me that the autoclave price is about RM12,000! BUT WHERE'S THE QUOTATION! Grrr... I am so angry la like this! Dah la made in Taiwan. I hope it is reliable, if not siap la ERLA!

Today's evening (5.33 pm), he said it has been emailed. Mana ada in my inbox!

Hah, just got it at 5.50 pm! Again... only the LAF. So the total cost is RM8,345.00. Where shall I sign to confirm this?

RM8,345.. hmm just pay aje lah!

I called Mikhail again this evening and asked him if it's ok if I transfer the money tonight. He said no and asked me to drop by at the office to make the payment on spot. That way, he can ask the manufacturing guy to proceed right away. Alright, the 50% deposit comes to about RM4,172.50. Hopefully they'll process it by tomorrow and I shall receive it in 3-week time, inshaallah. 

The rest of the items he said are ex-stock and can be arranged within these 3 weeks, so not to worry! I hope so...

Wiring Work in Progress

Jo came yesterday morning  and started working on the wiring thing. Fortunately I was there and able to guide him on few things i.e location of the plug points and switches. I guess he will be able to finish the work in a day except connecting from the house to the lab.

This is the result of his half-day work. Can't he really focus and finish it in a day? Ahh.. I don't like to complain but this is what a typical Malay guy's work!

For the fluorescent lighting

Perhaps it will complete on Monday

Oh yes... I called Mikhail to ask the position of the plug from the LAF but he didn't answer at all. Fortunately, Hajar gave me one of ERLA staff and answered my questions.
