Have you guys seen James May's new show, "Reassembler"? They give him something all in pieces and with the manual he puts it back together? Weird idea for a show but strangely relaxing to watch. He drones on a bit, gives a little history and builds (rebuilds I guess) something. I watched the

Stainless bolts don't have much yield if you crank on them, they tend to snap (rotational shear) pretty easily. I have broken 1/2 SS lag screws going into ipe wood (very hard) just by cranking down on them with a socket wrench. --JC On 6/13/16 2:32 PM, Curt Raymond via Mercedes wrote:
