[BlindHandyMan] Shoe repair

2006-09-28 Thread Art Rizzino
Hello list,

Does anyone have experience with securing the tread of a shoe that is starting 
to peel off?  The tread is rubbery and the material that it was attached to is 
spongy.

I assume if I try to use contact cement the heat created when bonding would 
probably melt something.

Hot melt from a glue gun will be to stiff if I can even get it in between 
anyways.

 Rubber cement I guess would probably peel back over time caused by the flexing 
of the shoe.

So I have been tempted to try ElmerÂ’s glue.  I have not tried this yet, I 
believe that I have both the paper and wood types available.

Does anyone know what would work well for this type of shoe repair?

Thanks in advance,

Art

 Are you talking about under water welding?  It seems to me that the heat 
 of
 the arc would boil the water, making a lot of bubbles.

I once heard from a diver who does a lot of under water welding that a
torch
 makes so many bubbles that you are essentially blind.  An arc is no
 better.
 After you strike the arc there are just as many bubbles.  If a diver can
 weld blind, why can't we.

 Hi
 FIVE TIPS TO IMPROVE STICK WELDING

 Shellfish can make you a better welder. Simply think about CLAMS:
 Current setting, Length of arc, Angle of electrode, Manipulation of 
 the
 electrode and
 Speed of travel. If you're just learning the Stick process, 
 technically
 called Shielded Metal Arc Welding, remembering these five points will
 improve your
 welding technique.

 Before leaping into the how to weld information presented later in
 this article, take a minute to review the following advice, especially
 if you've never
 struck an arc or are still debating which machine to buy.

 Q: What type of Stick welder works best for all-around use?

 A: A welder with an AC/DC output, whether its an electric arc machine
 like Miller's Thunderbolt or a gas engine drive like Miller's Bobcat.

 DC welding offers advantages over AC for most Stick applications,
 including: easier starts; fewer arc outages and sticking; less
 spatter/better looking
 welds; easier vertical up and overhead welding; easier to learn how 
 to
 weld and a smoother arc. DC reverse polarity (electrode positive)
 provides about
 10 percent more penetration at a given amperage than AC, while DC
 straight polarity (electrode negative) welds thinner metals better.

 Q: Does an AC output have any advantages?

 A: Yes, if you need to weld on material that's become magnetized from
 friction, such as when hay, feed or water constantly rub against a
 steel
 part. A DC
 output won't work because of arc blow, where the magnetic field 
 blows
 the molten filler metal out of the weld puddle. Because an AC output
 alternates
 between polarities, it enables you to weld magnetized parts.

 Q: How big of machine do I need?

 A: A 225 to 300 amp machine handles almost anything the average person
 will encounter, as most Stick welding procedures require 200 amps or
 less. To weld
 material thicker than 3/8 in., simply make multiple passes - this is
 what professionals do, even when welding on 1 in. structural steel.

 Q: I see the word duty cycle on product spec sheets? What does that
 mean?

 A: Duty cycle is the number of minutes out of a 10-minute cycle a
 welder
 can operate. For example, the Thunderbolt XL creates a 200 amp DC
 output
 at 20
 percent duty cycle. It can weld continuously at 200 amps for two
 minutes, and then must cool for eight minutes to prevent overheating.

 Duty cycle and amperage are inversely proportional. Operating at 90
 amps, the Thunderbolt has a 100 percent duty cycle, meaning you can
 weld
 without stopping.
 This inversely proportional rule is true of all Miller

Yes, They started coming out with that hood almost 30 years ago, we called 
them a blink hood.  As you were ready to strike the arc, you were suppose to 
close your eyes momentarily as the ultra violet rays darkened  the lens. 
Back then you couldn't adjust the lens strength.  They come along ways in 
the last 30 years, and the price of these new hoods are quite expensive.

 Hey Guys! I just Googled this one and it's another one of those it depends
 who you talk to things. Here are some quotes:

  Don't use mothballs made of paradichlorobenzene--the warning label
 cautions against prolonged breathing of vapor, but how can you use
 mothballs without
 breathing their vapor? The odor of mothballs hidden in a closet can permeate
 your entire home and increase to high levels if there is not adequate
 ventilation.
 The vapors from mothballs are also absorbed by clothing and blankets, and
 can be very strong when you use these items.

 There are two different formulations for mothballs. One is NAPHTHLALENE and
 the other is PARADICHLOROBENZENE. Both are potentially very toxic. The
 naphthalene
 type is more toxic. Both vaporize to produce fumes wich can cause toxic
 effects on the central nervous system (possible seizures) and the liver.
 Naphthalene
 can also cause blood disorders (eg hemolytic anemia). 

 Diaper pail deodorizers also contain paradochlorobenzene.

 Mothballs should not be used around birds. Exposures to high concentrations
 of vapours of mothballs by humans, especially young children, can also
 result
 in toxicity
 And then there are these:

 Refined Naphthalene in a flaked form works best for getting into those hard
 to reach places. Works effectively against moth infestations.

 You can also buy two boxes of mothballs on E-Bay for $5.00.

 Oh, and by the way, apparently there is a really hot band out name

 mothballs -- pose a hazard to young children. Mothballs can be easily
 mistaken
 for candy, or simply tempt young children to touch and play with them.
 Recent studies have linked naphthalene to illnesses, including nasal
 cancer.
 Widespread
 sale and distribution of these products make illegal mothballs a
 particular
 concern.
 Mothballs placed out side for pest control is a environmental risk, they
 contain naphthalene, when dissolved pollutes water sources.

 Hi Hailley

 Although dogs make great pets, there are many

 The devices listed can be used for both wild dogs,
 roaming dogs and pet dogs depending on the situation

 Nuisance dogs can cause damage to crops, livestock

 truly amazing how many pet owners will hook their

I had a problem with that sleep key and after accidentally hitting it a 
couple of times I removed the button so I could never do that again.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] new keyboard

2006-09-28 Thread Max Robinson
I put the blade of a small screwdriver in the crack next to the button and 
pried it out.  It doesn't break anything and if you save the key cap you can 
put it back if you should ever want to.  I threw mine away.  Hitting the 
sleep button caused jaws to crash.  That's why I performed a key cap ectimy.

Regards.
