Glow Fly

Yay! It's the last one in this series. I don't mind posting but it does take a lot of time. Trying to make a description of the build interesting can be challenging too.

As those who have followed me for awhile know I'm a bit obsessed with making mechanical insects. They are not easy to make. The legs need holes in the main body, the head needs a hole, the abdomen needs another hole. That's a lot of holes in a tiny piece of brass. The engineering is always a challenge. It does make it a bit easier if it's like this, mounted on a panel. I will make another but just anchor each piece, legs, body, head, abdomen, to the board. If I space it correctly - it will look like a joined mechanism hopefully.

I didn't use a LED for this one. I wanted it to look old, so I chose to use an incandescent globe. As it's only 3V it's not that powerful. You can really see the difference between the power use of an LED compared to old "Edison" bulbs. The light isn't the feature here - the insect is. So I didn't overly embellish the piece for that reason too.

The wings are brass charms but they are thin and fragile so I don't think they would hold up under heavy wear unsupported. As a pendant you would only have to worry about clothing or hair snags. The body is a small brass tube. I inserted four smaller tubes and poured in some resin. I drilled those out so I could thread the four legs (made from heated element wire and crimps). The wire leads from the bulb are threaded through as is the head (a heart shaped vintage copper bead) and finally to two tiny front legs/feelers. The eyes are simply phillip's head screws. The wings are screwed onto an hexagonal ring. That is attached using two more screws tightened onto the body. As the wires are so fine, I had to secure the body with an extra wire anchor so it wouldn't put any tension on the wires.

There is an obvious caveat on this piece. She is fragile. The incandescent globe will chew through batteries too. I showed this to my group of friends who meet down the dog park on Fridays for wine and snacks. It was the favourite of many. I'm looking forward to making more fantasy insects that won't really resemble any real species on our planet.

La Mode nationale, no. 50, 15 décembre 1894, Paris. no. 2. — Carré en guipure sur filet. Modèle de Mme Marchais, 46, rue de Clichy, à Paris. Bibliothèque nationale de France

Explication des gravures:

No. 2. — Carré en guipure sur filet (Modèle de Mme Marchais, 46, rue de Clichy). Après avoir fait voire carré, montez-le sur un cadre en fil de laiton ou sur un métier, a fin de bien le tendre, ce qui facilite le travail et en fait la régularité. Pour broder le filet, prenez du fil à dentelle, bien brillant, puis commencez à faire tous les contours au point de reprise, ensuite remplissez tous les motifs au point de toile.

Ce joli carré peut servir comme entre-deux de rideaux ou peut encore orner le milieu d'une tétiere, coussin, etc.

No. 2. — Square in guipure on netting (Model by Mme Marchais, 46, rue de Clichy). After making even square, mount it on a brass wire frame or on a loom, in order to stretch it well, which facilitates the work and makes it regular. To embroider the net, take very shiny lace thread, then start making all the outlines with the darning point, then fill in all the patterns with the canvas point.

This pretty square can be used as a curtain insertion or can even adorn the middle of a headrest, cushion, etc.

A tripwire-triggered pipe bomb mock-up used to train US military service personnel

A pipe bomb is an improvised explosive device which uses a tightly sealed section of pipe filled with an explosive material. The containment provided by the pipe means that simple low explosives can be used to produce a relatively huge explosion due to the containment causing increased pressure, and the fragmentation of the pipe itself creates potentially lethal shrapnel.

Premature detonation is a hazard of attempting to construct any homemade bomb, and the materials and methods used with pipe bombs make unintentional detonation incidents common, usually resulting in serious injury or death to the assembler.

In many countries, the manufacture or possession of a pipe bomb is a serious crime, regardless of its intended use.

5.1Notable incidents

Design[edit]

Different pipe bombs' appearances, from a bomb awareness report issued by the US Department of State

The bomb is usually a short section of steel water pipe containing the explosive mixture and closed at both ends with steel or brass caps. A fuse is inserted into the pipe with a lead running out through a hole in the side or capped end of the pipe. The fuse can be electric, with wires leading to a timer and battery, or can be a common fuse. All of the components are easily obtainable.

Generally, high explosives such as TNT are not used, because these and the detonators that they require are difficult for non-state users to obtain. Such explosives also do not require the containment design of a pipe bomb.

Instead, explosive mixtures that the builder can more readily obtain themselves are used, such as gunpowder, match heads, or chlorate mixtures. These can be easily ignited by friction, static electricity, and sparks generated when packing the material inside the tube or attaching the end caps, causing many injuries or deaths amongst builders.[1]

Sharp objects such as nails or broken glass are sometimes added to the outer shell or inside of the bomb to increase potential injury, damage, and death.

Operation[edit]

Pipe bombs concentrate pressure and release it suddenly, through the failure of the outer casing. Plastic materials can be used, but metals typically have a much higher bursting strength and so will produce more concussive force. For example, common schedule 40 1-inch (25 mm) wrought steel pipe has a typical working pressure of 1,010 psi (7.0 MPa), and bursting pressure of 8,090 psi (55.8 MPa),[2] though the pipe sealing method can significantly reduce the burst pressure.

The pipe can rupture in different ways, depending on the rate of pressure rise and the ductility of the casing material.

If the pressure rise is slow, the metal can deform until the walls become thin and a hole is formed, causing a loud report from the gas release, but no shrapnel.

A rapid rate of pressure rise will cause the metal to shatter into fragments, which are pushed outward in all directions by the expanding gases.

Modes of failure[edit]

Pipe bombs can fail to explode if the gas pressure buildup is too slow, resulting in bleed-out through the detonator ignition hole. Insufficiently tight threading can also bleed gas pressure through the threads faster than the chemical reaction pressure can rise.

They can also fail if the pipe is fully sealed and the chemical reaction triggered, but the total pressure buildup from the chemicals is insufficient to exceed the casing strength; such a bomb is a dud, but still potentially dangerous if handled, since an external shock could trigger rupture of the statically pressurized casing.

Minimum evacuation distances[edit]

If any type of bomb is suspected, typical recommendations are to keep all people at a minimum evacuation distance until authorized bomb disposal personnel arrive. For a pipe bomb, the US Department of Homeland Security recommends a minimum of 21 m (69 ft), and an outdoors distance of 366 m (1,201 ft).[3]

Uses[edit]

Pipe bombs are by nature improvised weapons and typically used by those without access to military devices such as grenades. They were successfully used in the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939). During World War II, members of the British Home Guard were trained to make and use them.[4]

In Northern Ireland, there have been hundreds of pipe bomb attacks since the mid-1990s (towards the end of the "Troubles"). Most of the attacks have been launched by loyalist paramilitaries, especially the Red Hand Defenders, Orange Volunteers and Ulster Defence Association.[5][6] However, they have also been used by Irish republican paramilitaries and by anti-drugs vigilante group Republican Action Against Drugs. They are also used extensively in the south of Ireland by feuding criminals, including drug dealers, mainly in the capital city of Dublin.

As well as users such as criminals, paramilitaries, and militias, they also have a long tradition of recreational use for amusement or mischief with no intention to cause injury to anyone, but due to the dangers of premature ignition and of shrapnel, pipe bombs are much more dangerous than alternatives such as dry ice bombs or potato cannons.

Notable incidents[

This 1886 engraving was the most widely reproduced image of the

Haymarket riots

. It inaccurately shows Fielden speaking, the pipe bomb exploding, and the rioting beginning simultaneously.

[7]

On 4 May 1886, a pipe bomb was thrown during a rally at Haymarket Square in Chicago, Illinois, United States.[8] It reached a police line and exploded, killing policeman Mathias J. Degan.[8] The bomb was made from gas-pipe filled with dynamite and capped at both ends with wooden blocks.[8]

From August 1977 to November 1977 Allan Steen Kristensen planted several bombs across Copenhagen, Denmark injuring 5 but killing no one.

In 1985, Palestinian American anti-discrimination activist Alex Odeh was killed in California by a pipe-bomb. Activists from the Jewish Defense League are suspected of being the bombers.[9][10]

On December 16, 1989, Federal Judge Robert Vance was assassinated in his home in Mountain Brook, Alabama when he opened a package that contained a pipe bomb mailed by Walter Leroy Moody in Mountain Brook, Alabama.

On 27 July 1996, Eric Rudolph used a pipe bomb in the Centennial Olympic Park bombing during the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia, United States. It killed two people and injured 111.[11]

During the preparation of the Columbine High School Massacre, Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold had experimented with pipe bombs. During their testing and experimentation, Eric Harris had posted their results on his website. During the massacre, Harris and Klebold had used their pipe bombs as makeshift hand grenades, alongside various other bombs they had crudely manufactured.

On 11 December 2010 a suicide bomber detonated one out of six pipe bombs close to a major shopping district in Stockholm, Sweden, killing himself with no other casualties in what is known as the 2010 Stockholm bombings.[12]

In October 2018, pipe bombs without triggering devices[13] were sent to various liberal and political figures in the United States. Recipients included political activist and investor George Soros, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, former President Barack Obama, former CIA Director John Brennan, and former Attorney General Eric Holder.[14][15]

On 6 January 2021, a pipe bomb was found at the headquarters of the Republican National Committee, during the certification of President-elect Joe Biden. An unidentified object was also found at the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee, resulting in an evacuation.[16]

About the muse / Rules / Verses

On the surface, Stanley is conniving, money hungry, and appears to have little regard for other people. He runs the "Mystery Shack", a self proclaimed "ninth wonder of the world" in the middle of Gravity Falls, Oregon, but it's nothing more than a tourist trap and a front. Assuming the identity of his twin brother after his disappearance, he goes by the name "Stanford" and has, unfortunately for his brother, committed many crimes under this persona such as fraud, embezzlement, and money laundering. Good luck flying anywhere, Stanford.

General Information

Name: Stanley Pines

Nicknames: Stanford, Stan, "Grunkle", Old Man, Lee (reserved exclusively for his brother(s) (Ford is on thin ice if they're fighting)/mother/significant other, if anyone else calls him this they're getting punched)

Pronouns: he/him

Sexuality: closeted bisexual

Family: Stanford Pines (older twin brother), Shermy (younger brother), Mabel Pines (great-grand-niece), Dipper Pines (great-grand-nephew), Filbrick Pines (father, estranged), Margaret Pines (mother, estranged)

Underneath his gruff exterior, Stan would protect the people that he loves fiercely, including both Mabel and Dipper, and his employees Soos and Wendy. Found family means everything to him, and if you're lucky enough to be part of his found family (blood related or not) than he and his brass knuckles have your back.

Rules: (subject to change as I think of more)

1. Shipping is fine! Stanley is a closeted bisexual and might not openly admit feelings for other men, but he has absolutely had crushes on them in the past. It could even be unrequited love.

2. I am semi-selective and happy to write the following: with crossover characters (as long as I know the media they're from at least OR we are friends), original characters + self inserts

3. I am a very spontaneous writer. Plotting can happen! I'm just not as good at replying to plotted threads. If you have ideas/I get an idea, let's talk!

4. Stan might not be very nice to your character at first (unless you're a cop, then go fuck yourself). But befriending him has it's perks! He's more likely to be nicer to kids/pretty women + men

Verses:

Good old days. v (childhood verse)

Turbulent weather. v (teenager verse)

Sinking ship. v (early adulthood verse, specifically after he gets kicked out and attempts to prove his dad wrong)

Cloudy skies. v (takes place during the course of the show)

Clear skies. v (good ending, he sails the seas with Stanford)

Stormy skies. v (bad ending. this fucker never remembers what happens/the bait and switch plan doesn't work and Bill wins/ ect.)

Everything About Compression Tube Fittings 

Safe and leak-free tubing connections are crucial in the fluid systems industry. Compression tube fittings are crucial components that strongly join pipes or tubes without the need for intricate welding or soldering. They are invaluable in various industries, including plumbing, automotive, hydraulic, pneumatic, and aerospace applications, due to their unique form, simplicity of installation, and capacity to prevent leaks. They are affordable options that guarantee consistent and effective fluid transfer in various applications due to their simplicity of installation and reusability. Below, you can see the compression tube fittings: 

What are compression tube fittings? 

Compression tube fittings are designed to form a waterproof barrier between two distinct lines by compressing one of the fitting's components into another, usually tubing. With the introduction of quick-connect type fittings, compression fittings have become less common in the water treatment sector, and yet, compression fittings are still great, withstand high pressure, and offer a consistent, tight seal. A compression fitting is made up of three components such as the fitting body itself, a nut, and a sleeve.  

You may see a variety of materials available when purchasing compression tube fittings Texas. Brass is the most popular material for compression fittings and however, you need to ensure that the fittings are lead-free because using lead-containing fittings is prohibited. They are often composed of plastic and stainless steel. The material of your fitting will determine how much pressure or temperature it can withstand. 

How do tube compression fittings work? 

In a hydraulic or pneumatic system, two tubing sections are connected using tube compression fittings. When the nut is tightened after the tube has been placed into the fitting, the tube is compressed, and a secure connection is made. Additionally, they work effectively in applications where a prompt separation is required. Stainless steel compression fittings offer a dependable, leak-proof connection that can tolerate high pressure when placed correctly. 

Components of compression tube fittings 

Typically, compression tube fittings are made up of multiple parts: 

Ferrule 

The ferrule, which fits over the end of the tube, is a tiny, cylindrical component referred to as the compression ring or olive. The ferrule creates a tight seal by compressing against the fitting's body to stop fluid leaks. 

Nut 

A secure connection is made by compressing the ferrule onto the tube by threading the nut into the fitting's body and tightening it. To buy stainless steel compression fittings Texas, choose the best manufacturers. 

Insert 

An insert or compression sleeve may be used in certain fittings to give the tubing more support and reinforcement, particularly in situations involving softer materials or bigger tube diameters. 

Ferrule 

When compressed against the body of the fitting, the ferrule forms a tight seal, preventing fluid leakage. To buy the tubing fittings Texas, choose a high-quality shop. 

Thus, the above details are about the compression tube fittings. Visit Arek Solutions if you are looking to buy stainless steel tube fittings Texas. They provide premium products that satisfy your specific needs because they consider quality as the foundation of their business.

Exploring Screw Types and Specifications: - Akbarali Enterprises

Akbarali Enterprises is one of the best Screws Manufacturer in India. A leading manufacturer and supplier. We provide a wide range of premium Screws made from premium raw materials.Screws are ubiquitous fasteners, vital for holding together everything from furniture to machinery. However, not all screws are created equal. Understanding the different types and specifications of screws is essential for selecting the right one for your project. 

Screw Types:

Countersunk Flat Head Screw : A countersunk flat head screw is a type of screw that features a flat top surface and a conical or bevelled underside. The conical shape allows the screw to be flush or countersunk into a material when it is driven into a pre-drilled hole. This design helps create a smooth and even surface, reducing the risk of protrusions that could catch on objects or pose safety hazards.

Mating Screw : A mating screw typically refers to a screw designed to be paired with a corresponding nut. These screws are threaded along their entire length and are used in conjunction with nuts to fasten two or more objects together. The combination of a mating screw and nut creates a threaded fastening system.

Set Screw : Set screws are designed to be inserted into a threaded hole or to press against a flat surface. Unlike regular screws, set screws do not have a protruding head; instead, they usually have a hexagonal socket or another type of recessed drive on one end, allowing them to be tightened using an Allen wrench or a similar tool.

Q3) What is the role of flat washers in preventing vibrations and loosening of fasteners?

Ans) Flat washers play an essential role in averting vibrations and thwarting the loosening of fasteners across diverse applications. Here's how flat washers contribute to this purpose:

1. Load Dispersion: Flat washers extend the contact area between the fastener head or nut and the material being fastened. This expanded contact surface ensures a more uniform distribution of applied loads, minimizing stress concentrations at contact points. Consequently, this prevents localized deformation and diminishes the likelihood of fastener loosening due to stress concentration.

2. Enhanced Friction: The presence of flat washers introduces heightened friction between the fastener and the material. Friction opposes motion and impedes fastener rotation caused by vibrations, making it challenging for the fastener to loosen over time.

3. Vibration Dampening: Flat washers can act as vibration dampers. The pliability and compressibility of the washer material enable it to absorb and disperse vibrational energy, curbing the transfer of vibrations to the fastener and connected components. This minimizes the risk of fastener loosening due to vibrational forces.

4. Embedding Prevention: In scenarios where the fastener head or nut might embed into the material over time, the presence of a flat washer establishes a protective barrier. This averts direct contact between the fastener and material, lowering the likelihood of embedding and upholding connection integrity.

5. Anti-Corrosion Shield: Flat washers can furnish a protective layer that functions as a barrier against moisture, chemicals, and corrosive agents. Corrosion can undermine connections and lead to loosening, so counteracting corrosion preserves the fastener's grip.

6. Consistent Torque Application: During fastener tightening, particularly with power tools, washers guarantee even distribution of applied torque. This diminishes the risk of excessive tightening or uneven torque, both of which can contribute to fastener loosening.

7. Galvanic Corrosion Insulation: In applications involving dissimilar metals, flat washers made from insulating materials like nylon can forestall galvanic corrosion between the metals. Galvanic corrosion can weaken connections and induce loosening.

8. Surface Safeguard: Flat washers shield material surfaces from damage caused by fastener heads or nuts during tightening. Safeguarding material surface integrity upholds connection efficiency.

9. Disassembly Facilitation: During maintenance or disassembly, flat washers can prevent fasteners from seizing due to rust or corrosion. This eases fastener removal without harming components.

In summary, flat washers heighten connection stability by dispersing loads, amplifying friction, damping vibrations, deterring embedding, fending off corrosion, facilitating uniform torque application, insulating against galvanic corrosion, safeguarding surfaces, and simplifying disassembly. Their presence sustains the integrity of fastened connections and thwarts fastener loosening arising from diverse external influences and factors.
