Download or read book Every Tool s a Hammer written by Adam Savage and published by Atria Books. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this New York Times bestselling “imperative how-to for creativity” (Nick Offerman), Adam Savage—star of Discovery Channel’s Mythbusters—shares his golden rules of creativity, from finding inspiration to following through and successfully making your idea a reality. Every Tool’s a Hammer is a chronicle of my life as a maker. It’s an exploration of making, but it’s also a permission slip of sorts from me to you. Permission to grab hold of the things you’re interested in, that fascinate you, and to dive deeper into them to see where they lead you. Through stories from forty-plus years of making and molding, building and breaking, along with the lessons I learned along the way, this book is meant to be a toolbox of problem solving, complete with a shop’s worth of notes on the tools, techniques, and materials that I use most often. Things like: In Every Tool There Is a Hammer—don’t wait until everything is perfect to begin a project, and if you don’t have the exact right tool for a task, just use whatever’s handy; Increase Your Loose Tolerance—making is messy and filled with screwups, but that’s okay, as creativity is a path with twists and turns and not a straight line to be found; Use More Cooling Fluid—it prolongs the life of blades and bits, and it prevents tool failure, but beyond that it’s a reminder to slow down and reduce the friction in your work and relationships; Screw Before You Glue—mechanical fasteners allow you to change and modify a project while glue is forever but sometimes you just need the right glue, so I dig into which ones will do the job with the least harm and best effects. This toolbox also includes lessons from many other incredible makers and creators, including: Jamie Hyneman, Nick Offerman, Pixar director Andrew Stanton, Oscar-winner Guillermo del Toro, artist Tom Sachs, and chef Traci Des Jardins. And if everything goes well, we will hopefully save you a few mistakes (and maybe fingers) as well as help you turn your curiosities into creations. I hope this book serves as “creative rocket fuel” (Ed Helms) to build, make, invent, explore, and—most of all—enjoy the thrills of being a creator.

Download or read book White Resin written by Audrée Wilhelmy and published by House of Anansi. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: White Resin is an ethereal love story of the almost-impossible reconciliation between the manufactured world and the haunting and feminine nature that envelops it. In this impassioned and wildly imagined story of creation, a girl named Dãa, is born to “twenty-four mothers,” the sisters of a convent at the edge of the Quebec taiga. Nearby, at the Kohle mining company, a woman dies giving birth to Laure, a child with albinism, in the workers’ canteen. What follows is a dream-like recounting of their love affair and the family they bear, a captivating magic-realist tale of origins and opposites, that would be fantastical if it did not ring so true to the boreal north. White Resin is at once a dream-like romance and an homage to gorgeous, feral, and fecund nature as it both stands against and entwined with the industrial world.

Download or read book Alkyd Resins Technology Handbook written by H. Panda and published by ASIA PACIFIC BUSINESS PRESS Inc.. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alkyd resins are any of a large group of thermoplastic resins that are essentially polyesters made by heating polyhydric alcohol with polybasic acids or their anhydride and used chiefly in making protective coatings and good weathering properties. These resins are useful as film forming agents in paint, varnished and enamels & as thermosetting plastics that can be moulded into solid objects. Hence, alkyd resins are one of the important ingredients in the synthetic paint industry. Alkyd resins are the synthetic resins which have a dominant position among the synthetic resins with respect of production volume & the frequency of the use in paint & varnish materials. Despite the growing popularity of acrylic, polyurethane and epoxy resins, alkyd resins remain highly favoured among paint producers for its variability of compositions & better value for money. Originally, alkyd resins were merely the reaction products of phthalic anhydride and glycerine. But these products were too brittle to make satisfactory coatings. The use of oils or unsaturated fatty acids in combination with the brittle alkyds resulted in the air-drying coatings which revolutionized the chemical coating industry. The oil or fatty acid portion of the alkyd is one of the factors which determine the paint formulator's choice of resin to be used. In general, the lower the phthalic content of an alkyd, the higher the amount of oil used. Alkyd resins products are suitable for wide range of products with application in decorative, maintenance and contractor paints where excellent gloss and good durability are required. Experts believe that the total consumption of paint & varnish materials will rise to a great extent in the coming years. Both cost wise & performance wise, alkyds have proven themselves over a wide swath of demands, from agriculture/construction equipment to general industrial metal and even architectural finishes. Some of the fundamentals of the book are the basic chemistry of unsaturated polyesters, factors affecting alkyd production, monitoring the alkyd reactions, alkyd calculations, alkyd formulations based on theory, practical alkyd formulations, assessment of the performance of single and multicoat red iron oxide alkyd paint systems, styrenated alkyd resins based on maleopimaric acid, mechanical properties of alkyds resin varnish films and the effect of different weathering conditions on them, modification of alkyds, copolymerization of alkyd silicons for coatings, styrene copolymers in alkyd resins, etc. This book contains alkyd formulation, modification of alkyds, styrene copolymers in alkyd resins, copolymerization of alkyd silicon, polyblends of polystyrene glycol and alkyd in surface coatings, alkyd calculations, and alkyd nomograms. This book will find very helpful to all its readers, entrepreneurs, scientists, technical institution, existing industries, paint technologist etc. TAGS Alkyd coating formulations, Alkyd Formulations by Resins, Alkyd resin, Alkyd resin Based Profitable Projects, Alkyd resin Based Small Scale Industries Projects, Alkyd resin chemistry, Alkyd resin Making Small Business Manufacturing, Alkyd resin manufacturing plant, Alkyd resin manufacturing process, Alkyd Resin Plants, Alkyd resin Processing Projects, Alkyd resin production Business, Alkyd Resin Production Plant, Alkyd resin production process, Alkyd resin properties, Alkyd resin reaction, Alkyd resin synthesis, Alkyd Resins Chemical Technology, Alkyd Resins Formulations, Alkyd Resins Manufacture, Alkyd Resins Manufacturing, Alkyd Resins Formulation, Alkyd Resins Processing, Alkyd Resins Processing Industry in India, Alkyd Resins Production, Types, Technology, Applications, Alkyd Resins Technology Book, Alkyd silicons for coatings, Alkyd Synthesis, Processing & Manufacturing, Alkyd-Resins Production, Best small and cottage scale industries, Business consultancy, Business consultant, Business Plan for a Startup Business, Business start-up, Calculating technique for formulating alkyd resins, Formulation of alkyd resins used in paints, Great Opportunity for Startup, How to start a successful Alkyd resin production business, How to Start Alkyd resin Production Business, How to Start Alkyd resin production?, How to Start Alkyd Resins Processing Industry in India, Industrial Project Report, Industrial Resins, Manufacture of Alkyd Resins, Manufacture of resin, Mechanical properties of alkyds resin varnish films, Modern small and cottage scale industries, Most Profitable Alkyd resin production Business Ideas, New small scale ideas in Alkyd resin production industry, Polymerization of Alkyd Resins, Preparation of Project Profiles, Process for making oil modified alkyd resins, Process for producing alkyd resins, Process Technology Book on Alkyd resin, Process technology books, Processes and equipment for alkyd and unsaturated polyester resin, Profitable small and cottage scale industries, Profitable Small Scale Alkyd resin Manufacturing, Project consultancy, Project consultant, Project for startups, Project identification and selection, Project profile on alkyd resin, Properties of Alkyd Resins, Resin production, Resins manufacturing plants, Setting up and opening your Alkyd resin Business, Setting up of Alkyd resin production Unit, Small scale Alkyd resin production line, Small Scale Alkyd resin production Projects, Small scale Commercial Alkyd resin making, Small Start-up Business Project, Start up India, Stand up India, Starting a Alkyd resin production Business, Startup, Start-up Business Plan for Alkyd resin production, Startup ideas, Startup Project, Startup Project for Alkyd resin manufacturing, Startup project plan, Technological advances in the manufacture of resins, Types of alkyd resin, Uses of alkyd resin
