DIY project: How to make a vertical wine rack | Metric Wood Screws

Ever tried to install a metric push-on knob on a U.S. split-shaft pot or vice versa? Perhaps you want to put an Ibanez Strat-style push-on knob on your beloved Fender U.S. Strat, but it won’t go on. The problem is that U.S. push-on knobs have 24 “fine knurled” teeth, while metric knobs have 18 “coarse knurled” teeth. The only thing you can do is fine tune the fit by squeezing the shafts together slightly or spreading them further apart. This works, but requires finesse. Don’t overdo it; otherwise one or both halves can break and you’ll have to replace the pot.

Currently, it seems agencies, at least in developed countries, are going through a midlife crisis experimenting with various business models and flirting with technology companies, while soul-searching to identify who they are. What is causing this?

Thread-rolling, as well as thread-forming, screws have come a long way in a relatively short time, with OEMs increasingly using self-tapping and self-drilling versions of these fasteners since the early 1990s. One reason for this growth is that fastener suppliers have developed screws specifically for higher-performing plastics and metal. Equally important is the wide range of equipment that assemblers can use to properly install these fasteners. From handheld screwdrivers to automated systems, they always apply the proper torque to create perfect mating threads and tight joints.

In case you didn’t remember — but honestly, how could you forget — in last week’s episode, we saw a car crash that could most definitely lead to an untimely end for Bonnie. And we already know Nowalk is totally cool killing of main characters. (RIP Wes). So, hold your breath for a few more hours and hopefully when you exhale Bonnie is okay. Though we can’t make any promises. 

At the time of independence, there were only a few local insurance companies operating in Pakistan along with a few foreign companies; within 25 years, the number rose to 32. In 1972, under a Presidential Order, life insurance was nationalised in Pakistan.

No, it says right on the page the multi-point inserts are so you don’t have to make as many passes.

The Star invasion began in the early 2000s, bringing with it the popular saas bahu dramas into Pakistani homes, followed by a plethora of local satellite channels after the opening up of the media by President Musharraf; their advent signalled the beginning of the end of PTV’s market leadership.

In the waste wood processing industry, railway sleepers are among the most difficult materials to shred. They are made of very hard wood and often still contain iron screws and plates. When Gojer, Kärntner Entsorgungsdienst GmbH was faced with the challenge of shredding these sleepers, they opted for the Urraco 95 DK mobile twin-shaft shredder from Lindner-Recyclingtech at the end of August 2017. How does the 770-hp mobile machine perform in terms of throughput, energy consumption and efficiency? Gojer looks back on a very positive first year.

No matter, you might think. Christmas was over, it was insured, and, anyway, these things happen if you built a giant goat out of straw. So a local business group took over the sponsorship of the goat, and agreed to build a new one next year.

Adhesives are commonly used to assemble toys that don’t require servicing or disassembly, such as dolls and detailing on model trains. “Since most toys are intended to be thrown away if broken and do not require service or maintenance during their life, adhesives are a great fit for toy manufacturing,” claims Scott.

New expertise, such as experience design, data management and technology are becoming central to the profession. Academic or vocational training for such skills is presently non-existent in Pakistan.

Work long enough with 3D printers, and our ideas inevitably grow beyond our print volume. Depending on the nature of the project, it may be possible to divide into pieces then glue them together. But usually a larger project also places higher structural demands ill-suited to plastic.
