Avoiding A Deck Collapse: Start By Attaching It Properly | Sheet Metal Roofing Screws

So the selection of AOR agencies by multinational clients is based on regional or global agency alignment. The local agency affiliate is more execution or tactical focused. It is unlikely that this will change in the near future as multinationals are able to better synchronise and manage cost with globally or regionally aligned AORs.

Assemblers can drill and tap holes in magnesium castings. However, the porosity of castings can be an issue during drilling, and special lubricants are usually needed to prevent galling.

Others decided to pursue other careers or start their own companies. Sarmad Ali (perhaps the most talented advertising person of our times) decided to join the media (Jang Group), Imran Irshad first went abroad and then came back to open his own agency, Shoaib Qureshy also opened his own agency and Raihan Merchant made a fortune by going solo early on in his career.

Philips and star head screws can’t handle a lot of torque without stripping. If your rusted screws remain stuck or you’ve stripped the screw heads, try cutting a notch into each head and removing them with a flat blade screwdriver.

Manufacturers in many industries select these screws because they prevent cross-threading, resist vibration and are reusable. Another appeal is versatility. The screws can be used in aluminum, magnesium and plastic, as well as sheet metal, and some suppliers offer thread-rolling bolts.

Over the following decades, several more companies began manufacturing corrugated sheets and sheathing made from asbestos cement. In the 1950s, the National Gypsum Company added corrugated asbestos roofing to its Gold Bond line of products, cementing the building material’s popularity with home builders, farmers and factory owners alike.

By far the best screwdrivers in my toolbox are my late father’s old flat-heads with wooden handles. Simply indestructable and very comfortable to work with. Wish i also had some Philips screwdrivers like that. And agree 100% on the small set tip: don’t buy the cheap ones; they’re all rubbish. I’ve inherited a professonial set that’s 50+ years old and still in excellent working order.

Electronic stud finders, on the other hand, rely on internal sensors rather than magnets to pinpoint the location of wood studs. They sense a change in density in the space behind the wall. Though the technology may sound complicated, electronic stud finders are easy to use: Simply place the tool flat against the wall and move it slowly in a horizontal fashion. When it detects a stud, it will emit an audible alarm and produce a visual indicator, depending on the specific model.

Some of the well-established magazines also had an impact on social issues. The Mirror of the Month, better known as the Mirror, was a popular, Pakistani, social, monthly magazine which ran from 1951 to 1972. Its founding Editor, Zeb-un-Nissa Hamidullah, became the first woman editor in Pakistan. Her mission statement was to “foster feelings of unity and amity throughout the country.” The magazine was published at Din Muhammadi Press until the 1960s.

A: This will confuse you as much as it confused us. Last year, when Husky and KTM switched from Keihin PWKs to Mikuni TMXs, we struggled with the jetting. The factory technicians shocked us by saying that we should quit running a 40:1 gas/oil ratio and switch to 60:1. In fact, the TC250’s owner’s manual says to run a gas-to-oil ratio of 60:1. We thought it was a typo, but the engineers insisted that it would solve all of our jetting issues (and promised that they would rebuild our engine if they were wrong). So, we switched from Maxima at 40:1 to Maxima at 60:1 (with the stock jets installed). The 60:1 ratio, which is 10.7 ounces of oil to 5 gallons of gas, was an improvement; however, we still had to fiddle with the brass for temperature, humidity or track changes.
