![]() ![]() In nearly all other countries, metric drill bit sizes are most common, and all others are anachronisms or are reserved for dealing with designs from the US. In the U.S., fractional inch and gauge drill bit sizes are in common use. They can be made in any size to order, but standards organizations have defined sets of sizes that are produced routinely by drill bit manufacturers and stocked by distributors. Use a number 7 drill! It's 5.Drill bits are the cutting tools of drilling machines. Will report back if there's any clarification. I asked the question: 5/8 or 3/4 on a site for professional machinists I visit. And 5.16 is either 77 or 64% All reasonably good numbers (tho 92%, if true, might cause some taps to break). Not being contrary - the issue could be the difference between really hard tapping and breaking taps (if 3/4 results in too small of a hole) or very weak threaded joints (if 5/8 results in too big a hole). The distance inside the major diameter to the root is 5/8 H. Still, when I look at the drawing, there is a theoretical distance outside the major diameter of 1/8 H for a putative sharp crest. A horrible design - an invitation to fatigue failure. The historical deal might be that older American National Standard threads had sharp roots and crests. The differences you note arise from whether you choose 3/4H or 5/8H as 100%.The 3/4 vs 5/8 difference would explain it. (I think it's actually due to an historical issue in the U.S.). I put links in my post - do you have source info, or a citation for the above?ĭon't ask me why, but 3/4H is usually considered 100% thread percentage rather than 5/8H. I'd like to know 1) the correct sizes (and yours may be), and 2) the source. We're getting information from different sources apparently. Given that most folks target 65 to 70%, and a hand-held drill is gonna make a hole that is a bit oversize I think the OP chose just about the perfect setup.īut where is this discrepancy coming from? 4.7 vs 4.88 for 100%, and 5.16 being either 77% or about 63%?Ĭan you share your source? I'm going to dig out may Machninists Handbook to see if I can find the numbers in there. Anyway, the internal thread radius is 5/8H less than the nominal, or 5*0.866/8 mm, or 0.541mm. The current Unified (flat root) or Metric (allows for rounded root) standards are stronger. This makes it stronger than the early American National Standard which used sharp root and crest. The thread form does not contain the top H/8 of the thread crest, nor the bottom H/4 of the thread root. I suspect that we agree that the theoretical thread height H, is sqrt(3)/2 * pitch. The metric thread form specification is shown on Wikipedia (below). I put links in my post - do you have source info, or a citation for the above? And use moly-dee or some other good lubricant.Ī 5 mm drill is the standard tap drill for M6 x 1 threads:ĥ.2 mm drill => 61% threads.We're getting information from different sources apparently. If you must, read up first on drilling Ti, then on tapping Ti, and do some research and get a really good drills and taps. Even drilling Ti can be problematic - it work hardens something fierce and the drill tends to wander as a result. If you have a notion to try your hand and at tapping titanium, my suggestion would be. The advice above is for tapping into steel. For too small a hole is difficult tapping and possibly a broken tap. The penalty for too big a hole is a weak threaded connection. Use tapping fluid (normal oil doesn't do as good a job). ![]() With a number 6 drill of good quality and steady hand you'd be close, but still be too big for my taste. But you'd probably be fine with a 13/64 as well. For this reason, I'd use a number 8 drill (note that this is a NUMBER drill, and the number 8 is not mm). ![]() I would target a little less than the 5.09-5.16 target. But here's the thing: if you use a hand drill, and/or a poor quality drill bit, your hole diameter is going to be larger than the drill. A bit more accurate estimate using the formulas in the webpage below is between 5.1556 and 5.089mm. That's where you 5.2mm comes in (one formula is drill size = nominal thread OD - Percent thread engagement/76.98). As a nod to practicality, most holes drilled for tapping specify about 65-70% of full thread depth. Just a point of correction: the nominal correct size for an M6 cutting tap is often given as 5mm. Running it into the hole to the point where its not tapered is what you want to do. And for a through (and not a blind) hole, a tapered tap is fine. Generally, 3in1 or WD40 DON'T work as well as tap cutting oil, but this is water over the dam now. You worked faster than I typed! Glad it came out ok. ![]()

Maybe for a while, but not forever. They think another human will fulfill them. As Vaughan Lee says, “Those who search for intimacy with others are reacting to this longing. In the best relationships, you can still, every so often, go to the moon and back.īut most likely, your relationship will be an asymptote of the thing you long for. You can share inside jokes, favorite vacation spots, mutual admiration, cozy companionship, a bed. In these unions, you can raise children, if you want. You might discover that you’re a neat freak and she’s a slob, or that you’re a bully and he’s a doormat, or that you run late and she’s punctual to a fault.Įven in the healthiest relationships, the longing often returns. You might find that he instinctively avoids intimacy, while you anxiously chase it. In everyday love, real life will intervene, in the daily negotiations of managing a partnership and possibly a household, and in the limitations of human psychology: sometimes, in the challenges of incompatible attachment styles and interlocking neuroses. The Troubadours adapted these metaphors to serenade maidens under moonlit windows.) The Sufis used imagery of a woman’s cheek, eyebrows and hair as metaphors for divine love. (According to the Sufi teacher Llewellyn Vaughan Lee, the Western tradition of love songs comes from the Troubadours, who were inspired by Sufi songs of longing for the divine. But these songs should be heard not only as a depiction of love, but also of our longing for the transcendent. This is why so many pop songs concern the first consummation of romance. You know, deep down, don’t you, that this was the courtship phase, the idealization phase, the phase in which you and your partner were united in reaching, for a marvelous moment in time, that other place.ĭuring this phase, there’s little distinction between the spiritual and the erotic. ![]() The work is done, the dream is realized: the perfect and beautiful world embodied in the object of your affections.īut.

Either way, at one time or another, you’ve probably felt deep longings - maybe for “the one that got away,” maybe for the one yet to appear, maybe in a current relationship that falls short of your dreams.

For those unfamiliar, a Kanban board allows you to display all tasks on a single board, which you can drag between statuses such as ‘not started’, ‘in progress’, and ‘done’. If you really want to go to the next level with your tasks, Todoist even offers a Kanban board view so you can get a better visualization of various interconnected tasks across a large project. The extras you get with a subscription, such as the ability to add up to 25 people to each project, themes, and custom icons are nice to have, but definitely don’t hinder a single user from using the app to great effect. The free tier is, actually, very generous. Todoist is a freemium product, which means the app is free to download but includes an optional subscription to add extra functionality. You could say something like: ‘Remind me to pay the gas bill on the 27th of every month’ and Todoist would set this recurring event for you automatically. A strong selling point beyond the option of using it truly anywhere is the fantastic natural-language reminder entry, which lets you describe what you want it to do in a natural, non-robotic way. Todoist has been around for a long time and offers a clean, easy-to-use interface that looks at home on any platform and syncs seamlessly between each one. ![]() The ability to use this service both in and out of the Apple ecosystem makes this a strong option for those of us that use a Windows PC for work but use Apple hardware and software outside the office. One of the best examples of a truly cross-platform to-do app is Todoist. ![]() There are also some very good to-do apps for iOS that can be used across Android, Windows and the web. ![]() While the first two options on this list focused on Apple device users, many people don’t have the luxury of using just one device manufacturer to get their work done. GoodTask is the ideal app for anyone that doesn’t want to sign up for yet another service that will hold your data, or for those that like the Reminders experience but need more power-user features that the stock app just doesn’t offer currently. It also has a very good macOS and Apple Watch app to round things off. GoodTask is a universal app, so it works across all iOS and iPadOS devices. The app offers a lot of options to customize both the layout and theme to really make it fit around the way you work and not vice versa. Some of these features include quick actions that can be customized to help you enter new to-do items quicker, such as marking the item due in +5 hours or automatically tagging it. It's based on Reminders, but it adds a lot more advanced features not available in Apple's app. GoodTask is free, but there's an in-app purchase of $9.99 / £8.99 / AU$14.99 to fully unlock the app. GoodTask takes everything you get in Reminders and soups it up. If Apple’s Reminders app is the Ford pickup of the to-do world, then GoodTask is the Tesla Cybertruck equivalent. Now you’ve got a strong to-do app ready to be put to use. Other useful features include the ability to add picture attachments to tasks and an option to be reminded about a due item the next time you message the chosen individual. One long-requested feature that made it into the iOS 15 release is natural-language support, so you can type statements such as ‘Call Mike every other Friday at 5PM.’ Tagging was introduced, so now you can easily group and view all items with the same tag via the new Custom Smart lists feature. With iOS 15, quite a few new features have helped the app keep up with some premium third-party apps. Stock Apple apps can go years without any real updates, but Reminders has been refreshed year after year for some time now. As you’d expect, it works well with Siri, which can even be invoked within apps like Mail with the phrase ‘remind me about this email.’ This will alert you at the chosen time and also let you jump directly back to the app. A major plus point of the Reminders app is its deep integration with the system itself. ![]() ![]() ![]() It allows you to set a timer to automatically erase the message, it restricts message forwarding, and it will alert you if the recipient attempts to screenshot the message.

The Joads find work as strikebreakers in a peach orchard. In response to the exploitation, Casy becomes a labor organizer and tries to recruit for a labor union. How can you frighten a man whose hunger is not only in his own cramped stomach but in the wretched bellies of his children? You can't scare him – he has known a fear beyond every other. Nonetheless, as a Federal facility, the camp protects the migrants from harassment by local deputies. Weedpatch Camp, one of the clean, utility-supplied camps operated by the Resettlement Administration, a New Deal agency, offers better conditions but does not have enough resources to care for all the needy families, and it does not provide work or food. At the first migrant Hooverville camp the Joads stop at, Casy is arrested for knocking down a deputy sheriff who is about to shoot a fleeing worker for alerting others that the labor recruiter, travelling with the officer, will not pay the wages he is promising. All police and state law enforcement authorities are allied with the growers. The big corporate farmers are in collusion and smaller farmers suffer from collapsing prices. Reaching California, they find the state oversupplied with labor wages are low, and workers are exploited to the point of starvation. Led by Ma, the remaining members continue on, as nothing is left for them in Oklahoma. The family dwindles on the way: Grampa dies and they bury him in a field Granma dies close to the California state line and both Noah (the eldest Joad son) and Connie Rivers (the husband of the pregnant Joad daughter, Rose of Sharon) leave the family. The group worries that California may not be as rewarding as suggested. In makeshift camps, they hear many stories from others, some returning from California. Traveling west on Route 66, the Joads find the road crowded with other migrants. Although leaving Oklahoma violates his parole, Tom takes the risk, and invites Casy to join the family. The Joads put everything they have into making the journey. The family sees no option but to seek work in California, which has been described in handbills as fruitful and offering high pay. Tom's family is loading their remaining possessions into a Hudson sedan converted into a truck with the crops destroyed by the Dust Bowl, the family has defaulted on their bank loans and their farm has been repossessed. ![]() The next morning, Tom and Casy go to Uncle John's. They have moved away, but Muley refuses to leave the area. Graves says the banks have evicted all the farmers. Disconcerted and confused, Tom and Casy meet an old neighbor, Muley Graves, who says the family is at Uncle John Joad's home nearby. Arriving at Tom's childhood farm home, they find it deserted. While hitchhiking to his home near Sallisaw, Oklahoma, Tom meets former preacher Jim Casy, whom he remembers from his childhood, and the two travel together. The narrative begins just after Tom Joad is paroled from McAlester prison, where he had been incarcerated after being convicted of homicide in self-defense. A celebrated Hollywood film version, starring Henry Fonda and directed by John Ford, was released in 1940. The Grapes of Wrath is frequently read in American high school and college literature classes due to its historical context and enduring legacy. Due to their nearly hopeless situation, and in part because they are trapped in the Dust Bowl, the Joads set out for California along with thousands of other " Okies" seeking jobs, land, dignity, and a future. Set during the Great Depression, the novel focuses on the Joads, a poor family of tenant farmers driven from their Oklahoma home by drought, economic hardship, agricultural industry changes, and bank foreclosures forcing tenant farmers out of work. The book won the National Book Award Īnd Pulitzer Prize for fiction, and it was cited prominently when Steinbeck was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1962. The Grapes of Wrath is an American realist novel written by John Steinbeck and published in 1939. ![]() |
