I can't listen to the links at the moment. In the meantime, please look carefully at my corrections above (remember to click on "Click to expand" to see the full post in the quote box). It's important to follow these rules of written English at all times:

- Start every sentence with a capital letter.
- End every sentence with one appropriate punctuation mark.
- Always capitalise the word "I" (first person singular pronoun).
- Don't put a space before a comma, full stop, question mark, exclamation mark or colon.
- Always put a space after a comma, full stop, question mark, exclamation mark or colon.

"the bottom board split in half, but when you put the weight on it, obviously this split opens so it drags across the floor, when you remove the weight from it the split will... we'll see also that it looks like it's a full board. The question he is asking is when you put it on here if you apply the pressure to the board would it split and detect that it's broken or would it say the board is still complete in one piece"

Thank you for your help Ostap.
I only doubt of this part "across the floor", it looks like she says "of low".

I'm 100% sure it's "across the floor". By the way, it just can't be "of low" because "low" sounds differently, with a diphthong. Theoretically, it could be "of law" or "of lore" (BrE), but it wouldn't make sense in the context.

Thank you, I believe you. :)
Indeed it wouldn't make sense.
Can you please take a look on the very short audio 1 & audio 2?
