I also like anime when the main character is the strongest or one of the strongest in the anime/becoming one of the strongest e.g. Bleach. I also like anime when the main is cursed and they need to do something to set them free or the curse makes them stronger e.g. Full Metal Alchemist.

  • Fender Flat Washers have extra large outside diameters in relation to their bolt size
  • Extra large Outside Diameter spreads the load over a wider area
  • Low Carbon Steel has a protective Zinc Plating for corrosion resistance – RoHs compliant
  • Excellent multi purpose washer for general applications
  • Made In USA for excellent quality conformance

Product Description
Fender Flatwashers were named because of their original use in auto body repair. The large outer diameter covered up a lot of area, and also spread the load across a wide area of thin sheet metal. In todays world these washers are used in electrical, construction, HVAC, and general industrial applications. The purpose of a washer is to spread the load from the head of the bolt across a wider area than the bolt head, which increases the strength of the joint. Fender washers do this well because the outer diameter is so much larger than the diameter of a standard flat washer. These extra thick Fender washers are manufactured in Steel Zinc, 18-8 Stainless Steel, and Type 316 Stainless Steel. The increased thickness provides superior strength, as the thicker the washer, the stronger it gets.

Made in the USA. These flat washers are produced in the USA for excellent quality conformance. One of the significant differences between less expensive imported products and ours are the way we stamp. Many cheap imports are produced on gang dies that produce 10 or more washers per stroke of the press. Using such a large die means that the individual washer sets are not adjustable – when the punch wears, the dimensions change and there is no way to fix this as the press produces washers, leading to a large variation in the finished part.

Materials available in many other countries are not as consistent as the domestic steels we use, which gives the imports a cheaper cost, but can lead to failures and inconsistencies when the products are used. The Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) was created to address this problem. Our materials are DFARS compliant although we do not supply the certification except on special order.

It’s seems to be quite difficult to source this information in sterling. Also in the quantities to what I am familiar with i.e. kilos and tonnes. All answers would be greatly appreciated and any references would be taken kindly as well.

Thanks all :)

With every new Final Fantasy VII spin off release thats come out in the last several years, each time I have been bracing myself for disappointment, specifically in regards to the music. FFVII, while primitive by today’s standard of music composition, is a masterpiece of a score. Period. Nobuo Uematsu is a master of his craft. That being said, although he did not compose the music to this game, it still came out to be pretty damn good. For those who don’t know, Crisis Core is basically the prequel to the FFVII story, with the main character being Zack, the mysterious SOLDIER from Cloud’s foggy past. Anyway, as far as the music goes, Takeharu Ishimoto doesn’t just plunge the listener into a mass of newly composed peices we may or may not like. Instead, he eases us into it by using familiar tracks from previous FFVII installments (FFVII game, Advent Children and Last Order respectively). In fact, the first three tracks seem to be lifted right from the original game and given a little update, but by no means do I consider that to be a bad thing. While there are a good many familiar songs on here that are nicely “remixed”, there are plenty of new songs that came out to be very good. The thing that stands out the most about these new songs is that they feel a bit different from what we’re used to hearing from a Final Fantasy game, especially those done by Uematsu. Some of Crisis Core’s original pieces have a sort of.. hip hop-ish/pop-ish instrumental vibe to them, while others … ]]> 0 Admin <![CDATA[Fender Flat Washer, Low Carbon Steel, Zinc Plated, Round Shape, USA Made, 0.281″ ID, 1.250″ OD, 0.040-0.060″ Thick]]> http://blacksmithinfo.com/blog/fender-flat-washer-low-carbon-steel-zinc-plated-round-shape-usa-made-0-281-id-1-250-od-0-040-0-060-thick/ 2011-07-31T14:08:16Z 2011-07-31T14:08:09Z

A video of myself practicing the “hot-dog-in-a-bun” blade construction technique where you insert a piece of high carbon steel (hot dog) into a jacket of low carbon steel (the bun) then forge it into a blade. It is a common practice among Japanese knifemakers and tool makers, a similar technique is used for axes. ]]> 3
