Overall, metal shingles cost more than either asphalt or wood shingles, on the order of $265 to $375 per square. However, you can potentially save money using metal shingles to re-roof by installing them directly over your old, in-good-condition shingles and avoiding the costs associated with the tearing down a roof to start fresh. In addition, both the repair and replacement of individual shingles are DIY-friendly thanks to their light weight (half that of asphalt shingles) and ability to be secured to the roof with just screws.

That was my thought. These look like self-tapping machine screws, w/30-45 offset at the head for pulling sheet metal into a offset groove for panel mounting(read: need a impact screwdriver to use properly or bevel punch). You can get chrome woodscrews, they’re rare as anything(defeats the purpose of hiding them in case a plug fallout when putting wood furniture together), much easier to find sheet metal screws, or self-tapping metal of the same type.

You should also consider the Stanley PowerLock 25-Foot Tape Measure, the WorkPro 100-Foot Fiberglass Measuring Tape, the General Tools LTM1 2-In-1 Laser Tape Measure, and the eTape16 Digital Measuring Tape.

The Cyclone screw has a serrated helical shoulder that bites into sheet metal. This enables the screw to absorb higher tightening torque and thereby increase back-out resistance. Compared with conventional sheet metal screws, the Cyclone screw has a much wider operating range (the difference between the maximum drive torque and the minimum strip torque). Stripping problems are dramatically reduced.

Desperate, the agency owners looked for anything that seemed like an opportunity and the fact that the software houses were so bad creatively, was a good way to generate some revenue.

This has changed. Berger now engages with young homemakers for whom paint is as important as their furniture. Berger took a huge leap by focusing on a younger target group. A celebrity endorsement has been introduced with Mehwish Hayat, because celebrities inspire people to be like them.

Fatigue failures typically occur within a couple of threads, where the bolt engages into the internal thread. Failure is then reached due to the high stress gradient within the region.

These robust enclosures feature elegant and ergonomic soft contours that make them comfortable to use. EVOTEC is molded from ASA+PC-FR (UL 94 V-0) for enhanced UV stability and can be specified with optional IP 65 protection.

Gold was a great writer who clearly loved his work and his city. I didn’t know him, certainly — we just had the one conversation — but he invited me to have lunch the next time I was in LA. I’m sorry I never took him up on the offer, and sorrier still I’ll never have the chance to. RIP.

We have heard stories of builders using stock replacement rod bolts, or even re-using hardware during a rebuild, but we could never do it ourselves. We’d certainly never recommend reusing any main bearing or connecting rod fastener. Upgrading to higher quality, higher strength fasteners is the kind of insurance we happily pay for. It’s easy enough to find premium bottom-end hardware, but should we go with bolts, or studs? How should they be installed? What about the lubricant on the threads? We understand that a shift in hardware will generate a lot of questions, and we’re here to answer as many as we can. We teamed up with the experts at Automotive Racing Products (ARP) who specialize in high performance fasteners, and they shared some solid technical information and installation tips with us.

If that increased torque doesn’t help, switch to a hand impact driver and a ball peen hammer. A hand impact driver converts straight hammer blows into a twisting motion force while forcing the bit deeper into the screw head at the same time. That means it reduces the chances of stripping the screw head while increasing your chances of a successful removal. Before you start, don eye protection and wear heavy gloves to protect your hands in case you miss the head of the tool. Set the tool to rotate counter-clockwise and choose an impact bit that fits snuggly into the screw head. Locate the bit in the screw, hold the tool with one hand and strike the impact tool with your hammer. Repeat until the screw loosens.

I can never forget the excitement and anticipation I felt before the run-up to purchasing my first mobile connection. The year was 2001. Mobile communication in Pakistan was set to take a turn to truly include everyone. The new entrant had chosen a brand name envisioned to connect to all: Ufone.
