Got to jump on this train! #MissKitty is caught up at 8: 58am! Making #IndependenceDay an awesome day for production. Production of what it takes for Miss Kitty to keep eating so I can keep fighting. I have #Art, #Technology, & #Communication for weapons. I might wear #Kevlar but I won't have a gun.

Better Living Through Chemistry (slogan)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"The phrase 'Better Living Through Chemistry' (BLTC) is a variant of a #DuPont advertising slogan, 'Better Things for Better Living...Through Chemistry'. DuPont adopted it in 1935 and it was their slogan until 1982 when the 'Through Chemistry' part was dropped. Since 1999, their slogan has been 'The miracles of science'.
The phrase 'Better Living Through Chemistry' was used on products that were not affiliated with DuPont to circumvent trademark infringement.[citation needed] This transmutation is now more commonly used than the original. This statement is used for commentary on several different topics, from the promotion of prescription or recreational drugs, to the praise of chemicals and #plastics, to the sarcastic criticism of the same."

Le #cirque sans #plastique continue avec une nouvelle paire de #poi ou #bolas en corde de chanvre ! 🌱 Inspiré des bolas enflammable en #kevlar dites "monkeyfist", je me suis dit qu'il devait bien y avoir des tutos sur #duckduckgo Images... 🦆 Voilà le résultats 😁 😁 😁

Installing the flaperon on the glider's wing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flaperon
It's a full-span flaperon, in two halves. Each half is almost 12 feet long.
Each flaperon half has 8 hinges made of a pintle/gudgeon pair. (1st photo)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pintle
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gudgeon
When installing the outer flaperon half, I also have to engage two sets of pin/sockets that ensure the two halves move as one unit. (2nd photo) (Each flaperon half is driven by its own flight control linkage, not shown here.)
One of the 8 hinges on each flaperon half also serves as a retainer that handles side loads. (3rd and 4th photos.)
The flaperon halves are intentionally not very stiff longitudinally so that they flex with the wing, but they are much stiffer radially to resist deformation because they are driven at only one point by the flight control linkage. This feature is fairly easy to achieve in composite fabrication because you can orient the fabric fibers in certain directions. In this case we used Kevlar, not carbon or fiberglass.)

Two men in the Houston area took turns shooting each other earlier this month while wearing a ballistics helmet, according to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez, who said the incident led to the death of one of them and murder charges for the other.

Made a bracelet that easily deploys 10 yards of kevlar cord (1.5 mm, 300 lbs tensile strength). I've shared a Paracord version before, but kevlar is thinner, stronger, and can be used as a friction saw!

#Radiation ☢️ shielding is a mandatory element in the design of an integrated solution to mitigate the effects of radiation during long #DeepSpace voyages for human exploration. #Kevlar has radiation shielding 🛡️ performances comparable to Polyethylene, reaching a dose rate reduction of 32 ± 2% and a dose equivalent rate reduction of 55 ± 4% (for a shield of 10 g/cm2). https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-01707-2

This Is Awful Dept: 15 Years ago on some obscure social network I mentioned this little bit about getting #BillMaher several pairs of #Kevlar shoes for future occurrences(traction bits)of *what had just happened*. Here he is now decades later with #JohnCleese and that farking awful thing has happened- We simply cannot find anything to disagree with. I don't know what it means...but also don't care in the slightest !

I was late to the Revo hotend game, but I ordered these hardened obxidian nozzles months ago and they finally arrived today! I'm excited to start playing around with carbon fiber and kevlar impregnated filaments. Any recommendations?

All that glitters... There's only so much you can ask a puncture resistant tyre to do!
It's always these dagger shaped pieces of glass that ruin my commute in London - how are they formed?
