Leah From a Knitting Newbe too, I certainly appreciated your "ultra" assistance with your response to
Pauline. However, I have two questions that I have searched everywhere for. I purchased an "almost new"
machine and am curious regarding needles, about every fifth needle is sorta stiff, or, not as loose as the rest;
although this does not seem to affect movement of the carriage. Nothing in the manual mentions this, which makes me
wonder if it is normal to others. Should all the needles move in the same smoothness? A circle of Wax was included, and
directions show where to apply it. But, I don't know how to get the wax where the needles go into and through the KP.
The hunk of wax is too large to rub it into the small canal. I've sort of shaved it into the particular areas of
concern. Thanks for any assistance. "Leah" <fenton@nowayamigivingitout.com> wrote in message

using your machine. I've had an ISM for over 10 years, and the USM carriage for 3-4 years now. New knitters I've
helped with their ISM/USM have dropped work most often because they were in too much of a hurry to get the row done and
end up with dropped stitches because pushing the carriage too fast makes needles jump out of alignment ahead of it, so
they don't knit right, and the work can drop as a result. If your work drops really early after you cast on, it could
be that your hem didn't drop down properly after the first row, causing the knitting to bunch up and then drop. Try
tugging very gently on the hem after you knit the first row to make sure it's hanging freely under the machine,
especially if you did a closed edge cast on, because R1 tends to be quite tight when doing an E wrap. Another problem
Bond newbies have is that they either pull the yarn up too tight at the beginning of the row or not tight enough, so
side edge stitches don't knit right and can drop. You want it snug, but don't yank the yarn too hard. Another issue
that Bond claims with their new higher tech plastic is that the USM no longer needs to be waxed for use. I don't know
if they've even put that into their instructions, but as a seasoned ISM user, I can tell you that when trying out my USM
KP and carriage, I found that it definitely needed to be waxed. Get an unscented 100% paraffin white wax candle. It
should be unscented because essential oils used to scent them can stain your yarn, same with a dyes to make a colored
candle. You can find the little white unscented tea lights in almost any store. Pull it out of the metal tray and wax
the area where the needles go into and through the KP. If your carriage is jamming on the retaining bar rail at the
front, wax those joints before beginning each large project (say after each sweater). I also wax the back of the
machine where the carriage hooks in on the top of the joints and at the backs of the joints to help the carriage slide
more freely. With continued use, your bed and carriage will loosen up a little bit and be overall easier to use, but if
you find it getting stiff to work again (and noisier than you remembered it being), try waxing it again, especially if
you let the machine sit a couple of months between projects. Another issue new Bonders have is they are either holding
the carriage to the bed too tightly or not tightly enough. You want the carriage to glide freely, but not bounce. It's
also very important to make sure there is no tension on the yarn. Pull out enough yarn to complete your carriage pass,
and if you run out, stop the carriage and pull out enough. I usually pull out enough for 2 rows, then repeat. Some
Bonders use a fishing tool called a line stripper to quickly pull lengths of yarn for knitting out and have it shot into
a basket before working, so they don't have to stop and pull out more yarn while knitting. If you try and use it
straight out of a center pull skein, it results in tight rows, which can result in dropped work. If you are dropping
stitches on the same 1-2 needles, then it's quite possible that in man handling your machine, you bent one or more
needles, so it's not knitting properly, and the work will drop in approximately the same place consistently, so check
for bent needles if you're dropping in the same area. Also, check your hem. If you don't have a ravel cord and are
just using the thin elastic that comes with the machine, you might have nicked your hem, which can cause dropped
stitches, as can outright cutting through it. Also check to make sure your weights are distributed evenly in the hem.
If the hem leans down on one side, it can cause stitches to lift on the other side of the bed and eventually fall off.
Also, and I've done this myself, check the instructions to see you are putting the hem on right. Until I got used to
it, I dropped my work, because the hem wasn't hung on the machine right. For more hints and tips using the ISM/USM, you
can visit Steph Thornton's page here: http://www.stephthornton.co.uk/knitting/bond/list/listhint.htm It has a lot of
goofy patterns offered for free (and one quite annoying poster who is obsessed with using multiple dots instead of
proper punctuation), but there is also a ton of helpful hints and tips, like using a crochet hook to "latch
up" the rib instead of that really annoying hooked "latchet" tool. I use a G or H hook to do up worsted
weight rib, I or J for bulky, and E or F for baby/sport/DK. Another terrific site for Bond techniques and tools you can
make yourself is found at Heidi's Knitting Room, just don't let the glaring RED background get to you LOL:
http://www.heidisknittingroom.ourfamily.com/ I hope that helps, because once you get used to your machine, it really
cuts down on the boring stocking stitch sections of knitting. FWIW, I made 3 adult hats very slowly with my USM carriage
before it loosened up, meaning the sharp edges of the plastic started to wear down from use so the carriage moves more
smoothly across the bed, so working the back of an adult sweater should do it, or do several experimental swatches 50
stitches by 50 rows with stripes, lace, fair isle, intarsia, and cables, which can be made into pillows or sewn together
into an afghan, which might be easier for you to handle than the frustration of dropping half of the back of an adult
sweater off the machine. Leah[/quote:2efb3beaca]

Verification at the level you require needs special equipment. The purchased plastic gear will most likely have an AGMA
grade specification. Even with the best cutters, it is doubtful your pinion gear has as high AGMA class profile as your
molded gear. This is the reason that the hyper-precision aero-space and fire-control units are so expensive, as the
gears with the required accuracy approacy what they would cost in solid gold. My first though would be to use 2 plastic
gears. The improvement in geometery may offset the like material operation. See if your supplier offers shaved plastic
gears in the right size. As molded are good for less demanding applications. [quote:7c455737f9]No silver bullets,
but.... Put an extra tooth on either the drive or driven gear to get a hunting action to avoid always having the same
teeth come into contact. Buzz-word is "relatively prime" meaning that the tooth count for the two gears don't
have a common factor. One tooth more-or-less should not change the c/c distance of the gears a great deal so you should
still be in adjustment range. Given the rpm and tooth count you could be sttting up some sort of torsional viberation
far above the range of human hearing. If you are using straight [across] cut gears, helical gears can help as there is
a more gradual engagement/disengagement. Use two gears on each shaft. If you are using helical cut gears, try to get a
left/right pair [called herringbone] so the opposing helix angles will generate opposite sense end thrust, sparing the
bearings some axial thrust load. Changing the number of teeth or arrangement would mean a complete re-build of the
unit, so I'll avoid that at all cost. Can you put two gears of the same type on each shaft or use
wider[/quote:7c455737f9] gears? Given your speed/power requirements & size of gears, set-up is critical. I suggest
you use prussian blue, candle smoke or what ever and verify the mesh pattern of your gear teeth as installed. It can be
a royal PITA to get everything aligned, but it is critical. [quote:7c455737f9] If you are having the gears custom cut,
try using one of the higher performance [and higher cost] engineering polymers such as minlon [mineral filled nylon],
polysolfone, etc.. Fiberglass, (and most likely carbon fiber reinforced versions {I can hear the cash register ringing}
by this time) filled/reinforced versions of these are also available, although these can be abrasive. see: http://www.

http://www.matweb.com/search/SpecificMaterialText.asp?bassnum=PDTA9127 There are also the more traditional thermo set

part of the refrigerator gasket melted. I don't wanna replace the ref door for its gonna be costly. Would it be all

If only the gasket is hurt, it is fairly inexpensive and easy to replace the gasket. If you are trying to just get by,
use something flexible - perhaps some foam held on with silicone. ______________________________ Keep the whole world

Howdy - New to the group. Been into stained glass for about 10 years. Mostly windows, some lampshades and candle
holders, etc. Arts and crafts and prairie style mostly. Anyway - I was wondering if anyone knew how the commercial
stained/leaded glass lampshade makers make their shades. I mean, it sure isn't came that they are using. It often
looks as though they laid the glass out on a pattern with gaps between the pieces and then poured melted lead in the
gaps. Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks, Brian

800 is a candle holder used in mining. It can be stabbed into a wooden beam or hung on one. 802 is a wrench which you
can roll up for compactness. I am sure the cotter pins holding the ends on are not original.

According to R.H. <rhvp67@cinci.rr.com>: [quote:e89fa0ef15]The latest set has just been posted:
http://puzzlephotos.blogspot.com/ [/quote:e89fa0ef15] O.K. Posting from rec.crafts.metalworking as usual. 799)
This is a strange one. At least part of it appears to be a plane designed for grooving the edge of a board,
with a guide on one side to keep it on track -- but I'm not at all sure what the semi-circular bronze
guide is for. But it appears to have a precision adjustment, and maybe a scale for measuring its position.
800) At a first guess, I would say that it is intended to stab into a wall and hold a candle (in the spring
clip), and perhaps to hold a torch or a kerosene lantern in the ring as well. I *think* that it is
shown upside down so the loop beside the candle holder could be a hook for holding some accessory. 801) At
first, I thought that these were to clamp onto a yardstick to transfer measurements -- but this would require a
2" wide yardstick -- a bit too wide for those commonly available. But they still could clamp to a
flat board, and serve as a form of trammel. Just a guess, however. 802) A wrench for accessing things
rather difficult to reach otherwise. And it looks to me as though the other end could drive sockets
(1/2" drive, I think) in similarly awkward locations. 803) Rather specialized forms of cleavers.
Perhaps the hooks are helpful in butchering an animal? 804) A non-skid clamp to fit a 2x4 perhaps? It looks
as though the non-skid teeth were made from a saw blade -- but it does not look long enough to be
actually *usable* as a saw. Congratulations -- I had to guess at *all* of these, with no feel of certainty.
This is a new level of difficulty. Only (802) seems fairly clear to me. Now to see what others have guessed

HI All, Ok, I now have a minute to call my own. Elizabeth & Sarah came over so we could go to the Queens County
Farm for a festival (and yes I had the camera with me). I haven't had so much fun since M-C's visit and before that
High School. It is like walking into a room where a long lost friend is sitting and before you know it, it is like time
never passed but stood still. But with Dorothy & Dave, they are new friends that i never knew I needed. I have a
sign over our closet that reads "Friends are family one finds along the way." It couldn't be more truthful.
http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/554167211/2567899620032555428rjAwZl We picked up dave first and saw his
truck. We had a laugh, at his expense unfortunately, at his observations of NYC drivers. Stop signs, right of ways,
yields, and horns are all part of the traffic laws here. The first three are optional and the last one is just another
language form. We headed to the supermarket only because I didn't have anything in the house of the liquid variety.
http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/554167211/2213802930032555428unPfyf We saw Dave's beautiful albums and the
two altered books are priceless. The Army book that I think April?? Jessie??? made is stunning. Then Dorothy showed
up, cursing gently something about a GPS not working well, and all I can say is she is my "soul mate" as far
as a warped sense of humor. Dorothy i hope you got warm at AC Moore -- Larry's ears were red. http://home-and-
garden.webshots.com/photo/554167211/2293138160032555428bUlcZA We headed to the Glendale Diner where we stayed for
nearly 2 1/2 hours laughing. God bless Larry -- MC we didn't torment him, we had Dave. http://home-and-
garden.webshots.com/photo/554167211/2529795540032555428LXYokb After lunch we headed to the roof deck of Kmart so Dave
could see the NYC skyline. http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/photo/554167211/2149218580032555428tlMvmz Larry
suggested that we head to our old neighborhood for an even better view (which I didn't think was correct because the
view only showed up in the fall) but there was some magnificant cloud cover happening. http://home-and-
garden.webshots.com/photo/554167211/2380577100032555428MjBlRt Oh and we stopped off at AC Moore -- I was a good girl
only spending $12.95. Then we headed back to the house and saw dorothy's beautiful albums -- which we tried to convince
her to post in webshots. I've learned a new thing about mulberry paper and fibers. Oh, we also exchanged gifts. I
gave Dave NYC 12x12 paper and a I love NY magnet, Dorothy same paper but a polymer clay rose stick pin that I made.
Dave gave me a box of goodies (fabric remnants from the show) and some bradlets with hooks and wire frames, a scented
candle and a candle warmer. Dorothy gave me gorgeous handmade paper that she found at the scrapbook show. I can't wait
for the next meeting. Did I mention that we didn't stop laughing and giggling the whole time? Again it was like
meeting an old friend after several years and the time just faded away. Even Larry had a good time. Oh I have to
explain why I bring him along (not to hold my hand) but remember you guys are wonderful over the "net but we really
don't know eachother in person as we are still technically strangers. I bring him for safety reasons. Once I met Dave,
I kinda forgot Larry was even in the room. Sorry honey. NOw that Dorothy and i have met, I have no doubt we will be
getting together again if only to do some serious damage at the new 3000 sq foot scrapbook store that just opened, Larry
promised. Hugs Kate

only spending $12.95. Then we headed back to the house and saw dorothy's beautiful albums -- which we tried to convince
her to post in webshots. I've learned a new thing about mulberry paper and fibers. Oh, we also exchanged gifts. I
gave Dave NYC 12x12 paper and a I love NY magnet, Dorothy same paper but a polymer clay rose stick pin that I made.
Dave gave me a box of goodies (fabric remnants from the show) and some bradlets with hooks and wire frames, a scented
candle and a candle warmer. Dorothy gave me gorgeous handmade paper that she found at the scrapbook show. I can't wait
for the next meeting. Did I mention that we didn't stop laughing and giggling the whole time? Again it was like
meeting an old friend after several years and the time just faded away. Even Larry had a good time. Oh I have to
explain why I bring him along (not to hold my hand) but remember you guys are wonderful over the "net but we really
don't know eachother in person as we are still technically strangers. I bring him for safety reasons. Once I met Dave,
I kinda forgot Larry was even in the room. Sorry honey. NOw that Dorothy and i have met, I have no doubt we will be
getting together again if only to do some serious damage at the new 3000 sq foot scrapbook store that just opened, Larry
promised. Hugs Kate

Liberty Polish. Does exactly what your asking for - works just like Tarn-X for brass. It's non-abrasive with a very
slight ammonia smell. It's an absolutely must-have if you own/make anything of uncoated brass. I occasionally turn
solid brass candle holders as gifts. I leave them uncoated, but include a small glass jar of the stuff in the box.
Here's where I get it: http://www.rejuvenation.com/relatedproducts/polish.html (no affiliation, it's just close to my
house, the guy at the counter suggested it, and it worked the way he said) - Bruce "Doc"

[quote:dfe3710083]Is there anything that comes in a brush-on or at least spread-on form that will take spots of

Tarn-X works on silver? I'm giving an old trumpet a going over and want to reduce some of the tedium in resurrecting the
sheen of the metal before lacquering it. Also, what sort of surface preparation is recommended before lacquering?
Please no "take it to a repair shop" answers, the whole point is to be a DIY project. Thanks for all shared

I found a couple of Irish x-stitch patterns too! One is a nice scroll with words and shamrocks - "May the Lord
keep you in his hand and never close His fist too tight". It wouldn't be hard to convert to applique if you
