Week #14 & #15: Blue Prints, Technical Diagrams, Mechanics.

Post by rjagodowski »

We will spend this week discussing Blue Prints and other Technical Diagrams such as electronic schematics & ladder diagrams, then on to discuss some mechanical concepts.

Here's a handout on Blueprint Reading:

Bolt Tightening Sequence - Why It Matters.

Thread Locking Fluid from Wikipedia.


Anti-Seize Demo (1:55) from Loctite.




Does Anti-Seize Compound Actually Work? (14:31) by Project Farm on YouTube. I've watched many of his comparison videos. He is very unbiased thinks of real clever ways of testing tools, lubricants, adhesives, cutters, etc. I recommend that you check out his Project Farm YouTube Channel to see if he has tested something you might be interested in purchasing.
