How To Install A Hot Water Tank
Use these instructions to install a system under the sink that provides hot water without the wait. Some high-end models even come with a water filter system and cold water dispenser.
Step 1: Shut Off the Water and Power
Clean out the area under the sink to make room for the tank.
Next, shut off the water at the water heater.
Turn off the power at the breaker. If your water heater is gas, turn the control to the 'Pilot' setting.
Step 2: Drain the Lines
Drain the water lines. Turn on the faucet at the sink where you are working, as well as an outside faucet.
Step 3: Mark the Sink
Make a dimple into the sink where the dispenser will be placed, using a drill set and hammer.
Step 4: Drill a Hole, and Smooth the Edges
Using a cordless drill and a stainless steel bit, drill a 3/4" hole into the sink.
A slug buster can also be used to cut the hole. To do so, take the cutting wheal off the slug buster. Place the slug buster into the hole and then reattach the cutting wheel underneath. Hand tighten the nut on the top side of the slug buster, then use a wrench to continue tightening until you hear a 'pop'. Remove the slug buster.
Use an emery cloth to smooth the edges.
Safety Note: Always wear safety glasses when cutting metal.
Step 5: Place the Dispenser In to the Sink
Place the seal ring to the underside of the dispenser.
Place the dispenser into the sink.
Attach the mounting ring from the underside of the dispenser over the threaded rod.
Add the hex nut, then tighten to secure.
Step 6: Connect the Water lines
Loosen the compression nut at the cold water stop under the sink and then remove the line.
Install a double compression stop to the water line and then reattach the lines to the sink.
Step 7: Mark a Spot for the Tank
Position the tank close to the plumbing and the electrical outlet. While holding the tank in place, draw a line on the wall to mark the top of the tank.
Step 8: Hang the Tank, and Connect the System
Attach the mounting bracket 1" from the line using a drill bit and 1" wood screws. Hang the tank on the bracket.
Push the blue tubing into the quick-connect fitting on the tank. Slip the clear vinyl tube over the fitting in the middle. Connect the larger tube over the last barbed fitting.
Step 9: Mount the Filter, and Add Lines
Attach the mounting bracket near the tank and then attach the filter.
Connect the 3/8" tubing from the outlet side of the filter to the 3/8" Y fitting.
Add the clear vent line to the filter
Step 10: Attach the Double Compression Stop
Attach a compression nut over the 3/8" tubing. Then, attach to the double compression stop installed at the existing water line and tighten.
Step 11: Turn on the Water and Finish Installation
Turn the water back on at the water heater.
Open the water stops under the sink, then check for leaks.
Open the cold water faucet at the new dispenser to wash out the filter. Turn off the cold water faucet and then open the hot water faucet until water begins to flow.
Plug in the tank.

I need a face plate for my lathe.?
I have a old lathe that I want to make bowls and plates with. My questions is how do I attach the wood to the lathe. It came with this knob looking thing that digs into the wood and the other end holds it in place. To turn bowls I need an open face on the turning side the knob comes off when you remove a hex nut that holds it tight, there are no threads on the spindle and it is a 1/2 inch. What do I need to get and where can I get it .
motor is a delco
An "old" lathe is a relative term. Like it could be 20 to 80 years old? Anyway, I would do a google search to see if the manufacturer is still around and if they are, email them with your model number. Ask if they have a faceplate that will interchange with your machine. If they don't, try ebay or even a machine shop to have one built for your lathe. The good thing about having one built, is you can set your own specifications and have exactly what you want!

diameter and wall thickness of lines, said method:
diameter and wall thickness of lines, said method:
(1) that the most straightforward method is: the actual pipe outside diameter * actual wall thickness, for example: Φ114.3 * 6.02 means that the pipe diameter is 114.3mm, wall thickness 6.02mm. However, in many cases,
Easy to design, multi-diameter pipeline with nominal diameter to represent, for example, DN100, 4 "and so on. Wall tube label SCH × × said that if SCH80 to represent. These values do not represent the actual diameter or actual wall thickness, it
Are just a logo. As countries around the world use the habit of a nominal diameter (eg DN100) are expressed on behalf of the actual diameter is not the only sum up, there are two, one called metric series
(B), a known British series (A series). Therefore, if only nominal diameter that do not know is A series or B series, it is usually not the only determining the actual diameter. Such as
DN100, such as the A series, then the representative of pipe diameter 114.3mm, if we adopt the B series, is a representative of diameter 108mm. But DN100A on behalf of external diameter of 114.3, DN100B represents the outer diameter of 108.
The pipe wall thickness is usually given in accordance with the label (eg, SCH20, STD, XS), check the relevant standards in the relevant forms, can be found in the actual wall thickness of its representatives.
(2) some of the old design department, still follow this custom, DN × × shall be expressed in metric (B), expressed in inches means that the British system (A series). But under the current circumstances, the latter situation
Conditions, namely, "said inch nominal diameter, generally on behalf of British series (A series)" is usually correct, but the former case is no longer accurate. And most popular approach is. Whether Metric Imperial
Are DN × × said. So, where to DN × × that path but have not yet pointed out that the A series, B series, to be clear of their series with the channel, otherwise an error may occur, such as might mistakenly 114.3 of
Channel 108 into the wrong pipe.
(3) Pipeline common specifications as shown in Schedule 3, which described in detail, nominal diameter actual diameter (sub-A series, B series), different tube labels (such as SCH30, STD) which corresponds to the actual thickness.
3.3 pipe fittings Classification:
Generally speaking, the whole pipeline, in addition to a variety of other accessories straight pipe can be referred to as pipe fittings. But habit, we will elbow, tee, head cap and a variety of trails known as pipe fittings
fittings, while flange, valve, expansion joint, pipe support, etc. were addressed. Following is a breakdown of principal on the pipe fittings:
Straight pipe and pipe fittings according to welding welding in different ways, pipe fittings can be divided into two main categories:
Butt type (BW):
pipe fittings
Socket (SW), and thread (TH) class
Butt type (BW) Socket (SW) Class
And the thread (TH) class
Elbow, tee, head cap elbow, tee, tapered pipe, pipe cap
Various pipe fittings (by order, test Beilun,

Cap Bolts

Bolt Tightening Technique
Time and technology has changed the way many cars are put together these days, there have been many new introductions for example like plastic clips, adhesive and Velcro, replacing trim nails and screws that normally held panels together in the past. There is still the use of bolts when assembling mechanical components, but even some of these has changed. Today, on major assemblies, torque to yield bolts are used in engines.
These bolts stretch to the yield point when tightened; the bolts are often used when exact clamping loads are needed on parts, they can be used on connecting rods, crankshaft main bearing caps, cylinder heads, front engine dampers and even flywheels. Torque to yield bolts will no doubt be used if the shop manual indicates a bolt needs to be discarded and replaced with a new one.
This can become expensive and a total waste of time if you have to buy new bolts all the time. Too many these old bolts may still look usable but beware looks can deceive, if using old bolts it may cause engine failure an expense nobody wants. Through the process of tightening bolts it pulls them to their elastic limit due to stretching, that’s why new ones are needed to give maximum force on today’s engines.
It is easy to understand if you tighten a bolt to much then the harder it is for it to become accurate on a clamping load. Friction occurs when tightening bolts these are like a ramp, when turning this has to slide against another thread or ramp in the bolthole. The tighter it goes the harder it becomes to move or push up the threads ramp.
When stationary the term used is stiction as against friction, as the bolt becomes tighter it is the station that will affect a torque reading. People may use lubrication to help threads slide easier but the quality between one lubricant and another can vary. It is far easier to follow manufacturer’s guidelines for the best type of lubricant that is needed for the bolt when tightening. This is important because if you use the wrong lubricant it may become too tight or not tight enough.
There are several stages to follow when tightening torque to yield bolts this is done using both a torque and turning angle. The first step is to tighten the bolt to a low torque specification, this is done to ensure even clamping load is in place when parts are assembled. The second stage is to tighten again slightly to the higher torque stage. This will still allow enough friction and stiction on the bolt threads as the torque is tightened very little. The normal procedure after this is too turn each bolt a specified number of degrees normally two to three steps. As an example, the bolt might be turned 90 degrees, and then another 90 degrees until a further 70 degrees has tightened the bolt sufficiently. This will ensure the clamping force that has been exerted by the bolts is both accurate and even.
Special tools are used that can measure the degrees a wrench or bolt has been turned, these are low cost protractors that has a movable pointer, whilst some tools use electronics when measuring a turning angle these can cost several hundred dollars. These two types both work well and though the electronic one is more expensive it actually can make the job go faster.
Some may ask the question why are the torque to yield bolts needed now? When perhaps they weren’t needed in the 1960’s or 70’s. The answer to that question is quite simple in that engine materials are different now. For example, the aluminum cylinder heads expand differently to cast iron blocks. When an engine warms up, all the parts bolted together have to be able to slide on their gaskets or move against each other. Because of the elasticity in the torque to yield bolts allows movement between the parts but still maintains even sealing and clamping loads.
Engine parts today are a lot lighter than decades ago, the heavy cast iron parts was able to take variations in torque without failing. Aluminum alloys and thin wall castings that are used today need accurate torque if this is incorrect then leaks or warping can occur.
Today the design of engines is changing due to the need of even clamping forces, the car manufacturer Ford have prototype engines where bolts which hold the cylinder head on can go all through the engine block threading into the bottom casting which holds the crankshaft. It’s hard to imagine that only a few bolts can hold a complete engine together. This would definitely change the way engines where assembled and disassembled in the future.
