nah that makes you 10x hotter daddy, wanna see you use a power drill and then drill your cock into me.

I’ll make sure to wear my tool belt 😉

I once built a flower bed in my mother’s garden with my father. Spent the whole day prepping, drilling, and assembling concrete blocks then putting cement between them to secure it before driving steel rods into the middle to hold them together, exactly how she envisioned it.

I smelled like a fucking construction worker, it was not pleasant.

Fire Starting Materials You Probably Have At Home Friction Fire by Rubbing Sticks Together

1 - Gather a fire bundle of dry grass or other material that will quickly catch fire.

2 - Gather different sizes of wood, from small twigs to larger logs, to make a wood pile where you want to build your fire.

3 - Find hard wood for your spindle and soft wood for your fire board.

4 - Find an arm-length stick of sturdy wood for your bow and strong cordage to wrap around the spindle.

5 - Find a piece of wood to be your handhold – this will protect your skin from the heat the spindle generates.

6 - Use a knife or rock to carve out a hole for the spindle to sit in on the fire board.

7 - Sit on one knee, and prop your wrist against your shin for maximum stability.

8 - Pull your bow back and forth to allow the spindle to further carve out a hole in the fire board.

9 - Carve a notch in the fire board to allow oxygen to mix with the wood dust created by the spindle.

10 - Once again begin pulling your bow back and forth until a significant amount of smoke emerges from the fire board.

11 - Move your embers from under the fire board to fine plant material.

12 - Blow on the bundle to increase oxygen flow to the embers. Continue until the bundle produces flames.

13 - Transfer your fire bundle to your fire wood pile, adding small twigs to larger wood as the fire progresses.

Ferro, Flint and Magnesium: Ferrocerium (Ferro) is a synthetic pyrophoric alloy that produces hot sparks that can reach temperatures of 3,000 °C when rapidly oxidized by the process of striking the rod, thereby fragmenting it and exposing those fragments to the oxygen in the air which causes the sparks. When scraped with a metal "striker", a Flint and Ferro create sparks and can start fires when the sparks enter a tinder pile. It requires some practice to produce a spark but, once learned, they are reliable fire starters in nearly any weather condition. Magnesium is a volatile metal that ignites quickly with any spark and burns white hot (2200 °C, 4000 °F) to catch nearly anything on fire. In and of itself, it cannot burn without an ignitor (flint or ferro).

Symphonie II

Having tried to make a Symphonie (box hurdy gurdy), which was not a total failure, I have decided to make another, somewhat larger, so that the wheel will be larger, it will have two melody strings so the volume will be louder and the drone strings will be above the sound board so they can be adjusted without having to take a side off.

I normally do a couple of days a week as a volunteer at an educational charity but this last term I have been doing three days and that extra day out of the studio has really slowed me up. So to the above: -

Photo 1 The most important tool in any studio is the coffee cup.

Photo 2 Putting the body together.

Photo 3 Wheel and part of the crank

My first one was somewhat ad hoc and for this "fair copy" I am trying not to have extraneous holes and bits of wood so I have made drawings and measured stuff.

Speaking of measuring, I have CorelDraw, Inkscape and various other drawing and CAD software on my laptop and none of them print out at the size I declare the objects to be. Why is that?

When I was a child my father changed jobs and brought all his tools home from work and the thing that fascinated me was a Die for cutting thread to make bolts or studs, just the thing that little fingers shouldn't be poking into.

I wanted not to use wholly threaded bar for the crank, since it tends to wind itself into the bushing as you turn the handle. This being so I acquired a tap and die set and some bits of 6mm steel rod and decided to have a go. Several YouTube clips later I took some scrap rod and cut a perfect threaded section on the end of it.

Beginners luck, unfortunately the scrap piece of rod I chose wasn't round and when spinning the wheel gave it serious wow and flutter. Found some round rod and then made all the mistakes that the YT vids had warned about, hubris! Three or four attempts later and its not too bad.

Still to do: -

Several dozen keys to cut

Drill tangent holes in each key

Fit two tangents to each key

Make the remains of the crank and its supports

Assembly, wheel trueing and stringing

Decorate the lid

And at the end of all this it will still sound rough!

Processing of Molybdenum metal

Molybdenum is a refractory metal with the symbol Mo and atomic number 42. It is most commonly used as a high temperature, corrosion resistant metal alloy in steel, cast iron and super alloys for the military and defense industry, semiconductor industry and specialty machine shops.

Molybdenum metal products are available in plate, sheet, strip & foil, bar, rod, tube, wire and customized parts. The metal is silvery white, very hard transition metal, but is softer and more ductile than tungsten. It is easier to be rolled in to thinner sheets and have a wider dimension limits than tungsten. It is also easier to machine molybdenum into complex parts than tungsten, that means molybdenum can be made into more precise & smaller parts. Even though, the machining process is similar.

Here we will introduce the machining process for molybdenum rod and bar roughly.  After sintering, the molybdenum blank will be forged, to make it with higher density and better mechanical properties. 

Process for molybdenum rod from blank: Spin forging and drawing several times a suitable ingot, repeated annealing is necessary during the several times of drawing. Mold is engaged in the process in order to draw to desired diameter. Remove the oxide surface, graphite is used as lubricant, this step will also remove it from the surface of rod. Regular surface treatment is grinding or finish turning.  Process for molybdenum rectangular bar or square bar: 1. Forging, annealing and mold are engaged in this process. 2.Remove the oxide and grinding the surface. The narrow faces can only be turning instead of grinding. The other way to produce molybdenum bar is cut form plate, next article we will talk about process for rolling molybdenum products. The method depends on the specific dimensions of the bar. If it is thin and narrow, it will be from molybdenum plate. 

Process of molybdenum tube: Small tubes (roughly with diameter <100mm) are drilled from rods, larger tubes is made by sintering directly. Will need to make mold first if the tubes are large, you can choose a more economical way to make a molybdenum tube with a critical outer diameter. Drilling from rods will waster some materials, while sintering needs a tool. We now have the capacity of providing moly tubing with length up to 2.7m.

If the complex parts are made from bar, and rod and other machining processes such as: laser cut, water jet cut, drilling, turning, wire cutting, etc. will be chosen according to drawing and process technology. 

As you can see, the processes are similar with tungsten machining, but requires different tools, feed speed, and annealing process. The accuracy of the work-pieces presented is also different.

Pure molybdenum has better ductility than tungsten, while tungsten alloys (WNiFe, WNiCu) have better machining performance than molybdenum alloys (Mo-La alloy, TZM Alloy, especially TZM alloy). We will introduce this in future articles.

It is never good news when your doctor goes "I have been doing this for 30 years and I have never seen done like this before"

Back story is had a root canal when I was 10. Now 25 years, a small absence is starting to grow under it as they did it wrong. So current dentist is removing the root canal.

Here is the remaining bits I could get

But as he as literally shoving and twisting one tool in my mouth in between drilling and grinding with another, I am watching his arms tremble as he is applying extreme pressure and torque to break the tooth, he mentions how freaky the root canal is

Not surprising, the bone and tooth and metal all fused together over the years so that made it extra hard. But his plan was immediately filed when the cap was found to be installed somehow in one piece with the metal rods that are in the tooth and roots. The metal rods themselves were weird as well as there were smooth stainless steel when normally they should be textured at least and often a different metal.

It took about an hour and half to remove the stupid root canal. And now I am just sipping chocolate milkshakes as the numbing agent slowly wears off.

So you can use a drill system to drill these rods into the ground, and then you start vibrating the ground. To condense the soil to remove the water to put a stronger foundation under a structure. This is what I said they could do in mexico to get the air out to get the water out to start condensing the ground, so it supports the foundation of the city.... This is why the one hotel in vegas was sinking, and my solution was exactly correct. So when they get the air out which the vibration does, it causes the air to rise up the soil collapses upon itself, and it causes the water to rise up the soil collapses upon itself, creating a denser foundational support...

How does vibration affect the strength of concrete?

Vibration of fresh concrete reduces its internal shear strength, and enables concrete to momentarily liquefy to facilitate the consolidation process.

Now, yes, the soil is going to collapse downward. And this is what's happening with the aquifers. In mexico the soil is losing moisture and moving downward...

So they need to rehydrate, or this city will continue to collapse... Cut my solution above with foundations. They can do this, so they have to use less steel to support the foundation... So if they had done this before they built in Mexico, they wouldn't have had these issues... Now they have to stop pumping underground water and Start rehydrating so the soil expands again.... But also, it means it can only handle a certain weight related to its structure.

As a growing population depleted natural springs, the city began to dig wells and pump groundwater to meet water demands. The soil began to contract and compress the land, like a kitchen sponge drying up. The sinking worsened over time, researchers have shown over the years.Jun 4, 2024

Why Mexico City's water crisis is causing it to sink

AI Overview

+7

Mexico City's water crisis is rooted in its reliance on underground water, which is being drained at an unsustainable rate. The city's water supply comes from aquifers and geological formations that store groundwater, and around 60% of the city's water comes from this source. However, the aquifer is not being replenished quickly enough, and some parts of the city are sinking by up to 20 inches per year. This sinking is caused by the compaction of the ground, which can lead to fractures in buildings, sewers, and gas and water lines. The sinking also opens the ground up to contaminated surface water. 

Other factors contributing to Mexico City's water crisis include: 

Water infrastructure

The city's water infrastructure is unable to keep up with demand, and the city loses about 40% of its water to leaks in broken pipes. 

Rainwater

Rainwater rolls off the city's hard surfaces instead of sinking into the ground. 

Climate change

Mexico is facing a long drought and heat wave, which have been made worse by climate change. 

You can actually mix in helium into concrete to reduce the weight of concrete....

Thread Repair Made Easy: Why Brazing Rods are a Superior Alternative to Helicoil

Stripped threads can be a frustrating setback, whether you're working on a car repair, an industrial machine, or any other project requiring precision. Traditionally, Helicoil inserts have been a popular solution for thread repair. However, there’s a smarter, more efficient alternative: the brazing rod. Specifically, the HTS-2000 second-generation brazing rod offers a high-tech solution for thread repair that surpasses the conventional Helicoil method. Here’s why using a brazing rod for thread repair could be your best choice.

Why Choose Brazing Rods for Thread Repair?

When you encounter stripped or damaged threads, the usual approach might involve inserting a Helicoil. While effective, this method requires several steps, including drilling, tapping, and inserting the coil. In contrast, using a Brazing rod for thread repair simplifies the process significantly.

Simplicity of Use:

There is no need for numerous tools when using the brazing rod approach. Instead of dealing with taps, inserts, and gage tools, you only need an oversized drill and a heat source. The process involves filling the hole with brazing rod material, heating a steel bolt, and inserting it into the filled hole.

Strength and Durability:

HTS-2000 brazing rods are three times stronger and more flexible than earlier generation rods. The repair made with this brazing rod is stronger than the original material, providing a durable and long-lasting solution. This high-strength performance is ideal for a variety of applications, from automotive repairs to aerospace and industrial uses.

Erosion Resistance:

Unlike many other thread repair solutions, brazing rods like HTS-2000 are highly resistant to erosion. This makes them an excellent choice for high-wear environments where other repair methods might fail over time.

No Special Equipment Required:

With brazing rods, you don’t need specialized equipment like welding machines. A simple butane, propane, MAPP, or oxy-acetylene torch is sufficient to get the job done. Repairing the brazing rod is made easier because it melts at a lower temperature than aluminum.

Quick and Efficient:

The brazing rod method is fast. After applying the brazing rod material and inserting the heated bolt, the metal typically needs only 15-30 minutes to cool. Once cooled, removing the bolt leaves you with newly formed threads, ready for use.

How to Use Brazing Rods for Thread Repair

Using a brazing rod for thread repair involves a straightforward process:

Drill the Hole: To make room for the brazing rod, start by drilling out the damaged threads.

Fill with Brazing Rod: After filling the drilled hole, warm the brazing rod using a torch. This material will create a new thread base.

Insert the Heated Bolt: Heat a steel bolt to approximately 750 degrees Fahrenheit and insert it into the brazing material.

Cool and Remove: Give the metal 15 to 30 minutes to cool. Then, use a wrench to back out the bolt, revealing a newly threaded hole. This method is not only efficient but also produces stronger and more reliable results compared to traditional methods like Helicoil.

When it comes to thread repair, using a brazing rod offers a modern, effective alternative to Helicoil inserts. The simplicity, strength, and efficiency of brazing rods make them an attractive choice for anyone needing quick and durable thread repair. Whether you’re handling a complex industrial project or a routine automotive fix, Brazing rod for thread repair provide a robust solution that can get you back on track faster and more effectively.

How To Harness An Asteroid

By

Hill Bowman

Multiple Environment Biologic Exo-Shell.

How to harness an asteroid.

let say a kilometer long by half a kilometer wide.

…

Primary propulsion will be solar sail, secondary propulsion will be particle accelerator, emergency propulsion will be chemical rocket.

Obviously, the parts and equipment for the solar sail as well as primary components for particle accelerator plus heavy equipment guide rails, Arc furnace, oxy- acetylene, hydrogen oxygen welding tank (just to make life easy) must be brought with you.

Also guide rails, epoxy, adhesive, ressens, plastic rivets Carbon fiber tubing, all kinds of fasteners, must be brought with you.

The materials for the conventional rocket will be harvested from the core of the asteroid via traditional mining processes.

Your most critical tools for this project will be arc furnace, heavy drilling equipment, welding torch’s, explosives, front loader, back hoe, reinforced Crain slings ( to bag and move rubble).

Human necessities;

For crew of 12

1 year – food , water rations, inflatable warehouse shelter, full ship board surgical and general hospital set up.

2,000 wats of solar panels, 4 deep cycle marine batteries and of course all necessary peripheral like cables hook up, attachments etcetera.

The space vessel must attain synchronous trajectory with the surface of the asteroid. land and or tether to the asteroid.

…

Once accomplished crew must unload, anchor down guide rail’s and safety cables.

Use explosives front loader reinforced crane slings and back hoe to level a building pad.

Bag And remove rubble and deploy inflatable warehouse for crew and equipment.

For a multitude of reasons this must all be done within 12 standard earth hours after arrival and synchronization with the asteroid. Human safety in the project being priority One.

First.

solar equipment, arc furnace, smelting equipment, earth moving equipment, mining tools and explosives, crew must be deployed to level a building pad from which to begin heavy construction.

Once a building pad is leveled inflatable habitats are anchored down and deployed for equipment storage and temporary crew quarters.

Next:. Bolt down parallel tracks to circumnavigate width of asteroid. This will be the foundation for gravity ring .

Next:

lay down two parallel tracks that circumnavigate the length of the asteroid Along with guide cables along all tracks safety harness connect lines for crew and equipment.

The parallel track work is to provide work area along the length and width of the asteroid giving access for crew and equipment to core out the center of the asteroid down it’s length.

Next:

Coor the center of the asteroid down the length by approximately 20 meters in diameter. Something like coring an apple.

Next: Utilize all resources derived from the coring process through the center of the asteroid to produce steel rods and gutters and 1/16th sheet metal as well as fasteners.

Note.

In organic materials can be harvested from the asteroid, however organic materials such as adhesive polymers, carbon fiber, nylon rivets, and assorted fasteners as well as carbon fiber structural components must be carried with you to make the structure error tight. The mineral substances used in the process can be collected from the asteroid itself.

The Guide rails And safety cables your crew laid down in the beginning for the heavy equipment will also become the footing and tension cable’s for the tower assembly that will support a gravity ring. Ultimately, the gravity ring will be the habitat for crew, research, navigation and propulsion.

Ideally the propulsion system is hybrid.

There are multiple methods of propelling the vessel.

once it is fully assembled primary thrust being generated by solar sails. Secondary propulsion generated by particle acceleration. Finally with third backup propulsion being chemical thrust such as hydrogen - oxygen rocket thrust.

Note:

As I'm sure you're aware; hydrogen and oxygen are in abundance throughout know space (as well as nitrogen) from ice and raw mining slag from the boring process. Collected ice can be melted down into water and further divided in the hydrogen and oxygen HHO.

Raw mineral slag once harvested from the core of the asteroid can be crushed and melted down for steel, iron, copper, nickel, zink etcetera.

The metallurgic processes necessary for the project will be accomplished through use of solar power supply providing electrolysis, Electric Ark furnace or chemical processes.

NOTE:

In the long term, raw material for construction of solar panels and batteries can also be harvested and constructed with raw materials as well.

Future science:

A new genre of literature.

…

What is the difference between future science and science fiction?

…

Future science differs from science fiction in that there is very little fiction involved in it.

The objective of future science literature is to take current technology extrapolating with fifty year projections on current technology advancement.

integrated with quality creative writing.

mixed with the true human element of psychological physical in material capabilities under adverse circumstances.

The end product; digestible, Bold written material to encourage, motivate and propel the human species out into the expansion of space.

To colonize to Explorer to discover and to challenge the human species to our inevitable destiny. To grow as a species, to support sustain and clean up the only planet in the universe that we know harboring intelligent life.

And perhaps even to discover intelligent life Beyond our own species.

…

future science writers in history such is Jules Verne and others technological visionary)Are the True founders of this generation of literature that I humbly pursue. it is (in my opinion a disservice to Jules Verne or writers like him that they be qualified under the same categories as folks that right for fiction / fantasy.

Riters such as Jules Verne, Robert Hinlone, Isaac Asimov and others deserve some credit for the hard research in science and technology this type of writing requires.

~ Future Science~

Has as an accepted and standardized new genre of writing (in my opinion) is the least that we can offer in recognition of their contributions to our advancement as a species and a civilization.

Hopefully the Library of Congress will take notice of this idea.

…

I welcome you to the amazing new future that we have already entered.

…

So until then this is Hill Bowman signing off I will catch you on the next fly by
