Soulbound Raptor

“Clockwerk (Sly Cooper)” © deviantArt user SacredRoses-Art, accessed at her gallery here

[Commissioned by @arachcobra. Another boss monster from a video game I’ve never played, Clockwerk is the main boss of the first Sly Cooper game, and a recurring background presence in the rest of the series. Since his whole deal is that he turned himself into a robot in order to pursue revenge on the Cooper family, I wanted him to be sapient, rather than “just” a mindless clockwork construct, and I wanted some continuity of intelligence rather than the brand-new intelligence of a Pathfinder robot.

Like with Dream Lord Grimm, the size is something of a fudge to keep the feel of the fight similar from screen to tabletop. Since I haven’t played any Sly Cooper games, I’m not sure if the funny animals within are roughly human-sized as a default, or if Sly Cooper is actually supposed to be the size of a raccoon.]

Soulbound Raptor CR 15 LE Construct This creature appears to be an owl the size of a dragon, constructed from metal machinery. Despite its weight, it flies effortlessly, gazing dispassionately from luminous eyes.

The soulbound raptor is an improvement on the soulbound shell, granting its soul a body not in mimicry of the humanoid form, but a mighty and oversized bird of prey. Most soulbound raptors are designed as the destination of the creator’s own soul, and they are animated by the ritualized death of their creator as the work is finished. Thus, an ambitious construct maker can gain immortality without all the fuss of dealing with undeath.

A soulbound raptor is a beast in combat, exulting in the strength and physical power they lacked in mortal life. Their talons are tipped with adamantine claws, and they can shrug off most physical attacks. Soulbound raptors are subject to the same cemented minds as lesser soulbound constructs, but are adept at self-delusion to the point where they assume that the spells they have are the perfect tools for almost every occasion. In the cases where they need different abilities, they collect magic items to supplement their powers. A soulbound raptor is difficult to kill, and they often fight until death in denial of any possible failure.

Since soulbound raptors maintain their ability to create constructs, they often surround themselves with armies of automata to acts as minions and soldiers. As the years pass and they become more detached from mortality and morality, their goals tend to become monomaniacal. Small whims or grudges of their original lives become all-consuming, obsessive hatreds, to the point where a soulbound raptor would not hesitate to spend a fortune in treasure and lives in pursuit of a single enemy.

Constructing a Soulbound Raptor A soulbound raptor is made from steel and copper, adamantine worth 6,000 gp for the claws and a gemstone worth 5,000 gp as the soul focus. The soul of a willing 13th level or higher spellcaster is imbued into the raptor as part of the creation process.

Imagine that the world as we know it ends tomorrow. There’s a global catastrophe: a pandemic virus, an asteroid strike, or perhaps a nuclear holocaust. The vast majority of the human race perishes. Our civilisation collapses. The post-apocalyptic survivors find themselves in a devastated world of decaying, deserted cities and roving gangs of bandits looting and taking by force.

Bad as things sound, that’s not the end for humanity. We bounce back. Sooner or later, peace and order emerge again, just as they have time and again through history. Stable communities take shape. They begin the agonising process of rebuilding their technological base from scratch. But here’s the question: how far could such a society rebuild? Is there any chance, for instance, that a post-apocalyptic society could reboot a technological civilisation?

Let’s make the basis of this thought experiment a little more specific. Today, we have already consumed the most easily drainable crude oil and, particularly in Britain, much of the shallowest, most readily mined deposits of coal. Fossil fuels are central to the organisation of modern industrial society, just as they were central to its development. Those, by the way, are distinct roles: even if we could somehow do without fossil fuels now (which we can’t, quite), it’s a different question whether we could have got to where we are without ever having had them.

So, would a society starting over on a planet stripped of its fossil fuel deposits have the chance to progress through its own Industrial Revolution? Or to phrase it another way, what might have happened if, for whatever reason, the Earth had never acquired its extensive underground deposits of coal and oil in the first place? Would our progress necessarily have halted in the 18th century, in a pre-industrial state?

It’s easy to underestimate our current dependence on fossil fuels. In everyday life, their most visible use is the petrol or diesel pumped into the vehicles that fill our roads, and the coal and natural gas which fire the power stations that electrify our modern lives. But we also rely on a range of different industrial materials, and in most cases, high temperatures are required to transform the stuff we dig out of the ground or harvest from the landscape into something useful. You can’t smelt metal, make glass, roast the ingredients of concrete, or synthesise artificial fertiliser without a lot of heat. It is fossil fuels – coal, gas and oil – that provide most of this thermal energy.

In fact, the problem is even worse than that. Many of the chemicals required in bulk to run the modern world, from pesticides to plastics, derive from the diverse organic compounds in crude oil. Given the dwindling reserves of crude oil left in the world, it could be argued that the most wasteful use for this limited resource is to simply burn it. We should be carefully preserving what’s left for the vital repertoire of valuable organic compounds it offers.

But my topic here is not what we should do now. Presumably everybody knows that we must transition to a low-carbon economy one way or another. No, I want to answer a question whose interest is (let’s hope) more theoretical. Is the emergence of a technologically advanced civilisation necessarily contingent on the easy availability of ancient energy? Is it possible to build an industrialised civilisation without fossil fuels? And the answer to that question is: maybe – but it would be extremely difficult. Let’s see how.

…

Well, it could, in a very limited way. If you find yourself among the survivors in a post-apocalyptic world, you could scavenge enough working solar panels to keep your lifestyle electrified for a good long while. Without moving parts, photovoltaic cells require little maintenance and are remarkably resilient. They do deteriorate over time, though, from moisture penetrating the casing and from sunlight itself degrading the high-purity silicon layers. The electricity generated by a solar panel declines by about 1 per cent every year so, after a few generations, all our hand-me-down solar panels will have degraded to the point of uselessness. Then what?

New ones would be fiendishly difficult to create from scratch. Solar panels are made from thin slices of extremely pure silicon, and although the raw material is common sand, it must be processed and refined using complex and precise techniques – the same technological capabilities, more or less, that we need for modern semiconductor electronics components. These techniques took a long time to develop, and would presumably take a long time to recover. So photovoltaic solar power would not be within the capability of a society early in the industrialisation process.

…

On the face of it, it’s not beyond the bounds of possibility that a progressing society could construct electrical generators and couple them to simple windmills and waterwheels, later progressing to wind turbines and hydroelectric dams. In a world without fossil fuels, one might envisage an electrified civilisation that largely bypasses combustion engines, building its transport infrastructure around electric trains and trams for long-distance and urban transport. I say ‘largely’. We couldn’t get round it all together.

While the electric motor could perhaps replace the coal-burning steam engine for mechanical applications, society, as we’ve already seen, also relies upon thermal energy to drive the essential chemical and physical transformations it needs. How could an industrialising society produce crucial building materials such as iron and steel, brick, mortar, cement and glass without resorting to deposits of coal?

You can of course create heat from electricity. We already use electric ovens and kilns. Modern arc furnaces are used for producing cast iron or recycling steel. The problem isn’t so much that electricity can’t be used to heat things, but that for meaningful industrial activity you’ve got to generate prodigious amounts of it, which is challenging using only renewable energy sources such as wind and water.

An alternative is to generate high temperatures using solar power directly. Rather than relying on photovoltaic panels, concentrated solar thermal farms use giant mirrors to focus the sun’s rays onto a small spot. The heat concentrated in this way can be exploited to drive certain chemical or industrial processes, or else to raise steam and drive a generator. Even so, it is difficult (for example) to produce the very high temperatures inside an iron-smelting blast furnace using such a system. What’s more, it goes without saying that the effectiveness of concentrated solar power depends strongly on the local climate.

No, when it comes to generating the white heat demanded by modern industry, there are few good options but to burn stuff.

…

But charcoal-based industry didn’t die out altogether. In fact, it survived to flourish in Brazil. Because it has substantial iron deposits but few coalmines, Brazil is the largest charcoal producer in the world and the ninth biggest steel producer. We aren’t talking about a cottage industry here, and this makes Brazil a very encouraging example for our thought experiment.

The trees used in Brazil’s charcoal industry are mainly fast-growing eucalyptus, cultivated specifically for the purpose. The traditional method for creating charcoal is to pile chopped staves of air-dried timber into a great dome-shaped mound and then cover it with turf or soil to restrict airflow as the wood smoulders. The Brazilian enterprise has scaled up this traditional craft to an industrial operation. Dried timber is stacked into squat, cylindrical kilns, built of brick or masonry and arranged in long lines so that they can be easily filled and unloaded in sequence. The largest sites can sport hundreds of such kilns. Once filled, their entrances are sealed and a fire is lit from the top.

…

Around two-thirds of Brazilian charcoal comes from sustainable plantations, and so this modern-day practice has been dubbed ‘green steel’. Sadly, the final third is supplied by the non-sustainable felling of primary forest. Even so, the Brazilian case does provide an example of how the raw materials of modern civilisation can be supplied without reliance on fossil fuels.

…

Is that our solution, then? Could our rebooting society run on wood, supplemented with electricity from renewable sources? Maybe so, if the population was fairly small. But here’s the catch. These options all presuppose that our survivors are able to construct efficient steam turbines, CHP stations and internal combustion engines. We know how to do all that, of course – but in the event of a civilisational collapse, who is to say that the knowledge won’t be lost? And if it is, what are the chances that our descendants could reconstruct it?

In our own history, the first successful application of steam engines was in pumping out coal mines. This was a setting in which fuel was already abundant, so it didn’t matter that the first, primitive designs were terribly inefficient. The increased output of coal from the mines was used to first smelt and then forge more iron. Iron components were used to construct further steam engines, which were in turn used to pump mines or drive the blast furnaces at iron foundries.

And of course, steam engines were themselves employed at machine shops to construct yet more steam engines. It was only once steam engines were being built and operated that subsequent engineers were able to devise ways to increase their efficiency and shrink fuel demands. They found ways to reduce their size and weight, adapting them for applications in transport or factory machinery. In other words, there was a positive feedback loop at the very core of the industrial revolution: the production of coal, iron and steam engines were all mutually supportive.

In a world without readily mined coal, would there ever be the opportunity to test profligate prototypes of steam engines, even if they could mature and become more efficient over time? How feasible is it that a society could attain a sufficient understanding of thermodynamics, metallurgy and mechanics to make the precisely interacting components of an internal combustion engine, without first cutting its teeth on much simpler external combustion engines – the separate boiler and cylinder-piston of steam engines?

It took a lot of energy to develop our technologies to their present heights, and presumably it would take a lot of energy to do it again. Fossil fuels are out. That means our future society will need an awful lot of timber.

In a temperate climate such as the UK’s, an acre of broadleaf trees produces about four to five tonnes of biomass fuel every year. If you cultivated fast-growing kinds such as willow or miscanthus grass, you could quadruple that. The trick to maximising timber production is to employ coppicing – cultivating trees such as ash or willow that resprout from their own stump, becoming ready for harvest again in five to 15 years. This way you can ensure a sustained supply of timber and not face an energy crisis once you’ve deforested your surroundings.

But here’s the thing: coppicing was already a well-developed technique in pre-industrial Britain. It couldn’t meet all of the energy requirements of the burgeoning society. The central problem is that woodland, even when it is well-managed, competes with other land uses, principally agriculture. The double-whammy of development is that, as a society’s population grows, it requires more farmland to provide enough food and also greater timber production for energy. The two needs compete for largely the same land areas.

We know how this played out in our own past. From the mid-16th century, Britain responded to these factors by increasing the exploitation of its coal fields – essentially harvesting the energy of ancient forests beneath the ground without compromising its agricultural output. The same energy provided by one hectare of coppice for a year is provided by about five to 10 tonnes of coal, and it can be dug out of the ground an awful lot quicker than waiting for the woodland to regrow.

It is this limitation in the supply of thermal energy that would pose the biggest problem to a society trying to industrialise without easy access to fossil fuels. This is true in our post-apocalyptic scenario, and it would be equally true in any counterfactual world that never developed fossil fuels for whatever reason. For a society to stand any chance of industrialising under such conditions, it would have to focus its efforts in certain, very favourable natural environments: not the coal-island of 18th-century Britain, but perhaps areas of Scandinavia or Canada that combine fast-flowing streams for hydroelectric power and large areas of forest that can be harvested sustainably for thermal energy.

Even so, an industrial revolution without coal would be, at a minimum, very difficult. Today, use of fossil fuels is actually growing, which is worrying for a number of reasons too familiar to rehearse here. Steps towards a low-carbon economy are vital. But we should also recognise how pivotal those accumulated reservoirs of thermal energy were in getting us to where we are. Maybe we could have made it the hard way. A slow-burn progression through the stages of mechanisation, supported by a combination of renewable electricity and sustainably grown biomass, might be possible after all. Then again, it might not. We’d better hope we can secure the future of our own civilisation, because we might have scuppered the chances of any society to follow in our wake.

How to start a construction business?

Starting a construction company or a construction business is a profitable way to start in a robust sector with an extensive field of action. However, careful planning and extensive market research is required here . And this in order to be clear about the challenges and opportunities that you will face along the way. Next, we will mention some key aspects to consider when creating this type of business:

Business plan

It is the guide on which you will give a structure to your company and you will carry out all the actions to meet your objectives . Here you must define the business idea and analyze the environment (market, competitors, audience, etc.). As well as planning marketing strategies, estimating the budget and projecting profits.

Name and legal procedures

You will also have to give your business a name and legally register the business name with the competent authorities. The legal procedures for the creation of new companies generally involve choosing a legal structure and registering with the commercial register. Like making a public deed and appointing a legal representative.

Licensing

Depending on the country you are in, you will have to manage the specific licenses and operating permits for this type of activity. Consult the regulations established by the national government and get advice from the entities that regulate the creation of businesses.

Suppliers and inventory

Search and select quality suppliers that provide you with all the necessary inputs to start your business. Depending on the nature of the company and the type of products and / or services that you are going to sell, you can establish the inventory . It will include all the tools and equipment for carrying out construction tasks by Abdul Rimaaz MT65 SOLUTIONS LTD.

Budget and financing

The budget must include all the investment costs necessary to start the business . These include branding, legal paperwork, licenses, location, equipment and supplies, starting inventory, etc. Therefore, you should look for a search engine positioning to cover these costs, either your own through savings, or external by requesting a loan from third parties.

Promotion

A business that is not shown does not sell. Therefore, it is essential to plan and manage marketing strategies to promote it , make it known and connect it with the audience. This is one of the key aspects in successful construction businesses, since investment to position itself in the market is crucial to boost growth.

The above, through traditional marketing techniques such as print advertising or merchandising. As well as digital marketing techniques such as social media marketing, video marketing or search engine optimization .

8 construction related business ideas

In a construction business it is possible to market different products and services related to this economic activity. The variety is wide and you can even combine one or more alternatives. So pay close attention to the following list of 8 successful construction business ideas . With them, you can start your business in this sector.

1. Manufacture or distribution of cement

Cement is one of the most demanded products in the construction industry , as it is used to join blocks, cure surfaces, make bricks, etc. This is a mixture of clay, alumina, calcium carbonate, and other elements. According to the need or type of construction, different varieties of cement are used, such as Portland cement for the manufacture of concrete, .

Here you have two business alternatives , one is to set up a cement production plant , and the other is to distribute recognized brands of cement . The first is an idea that requires more capital, since you must have a large structure and specialized machinery, as well as quality raw materials, fuels and high-power electricity. In addition, you must manage some compulsory environmental permits and licenses to be able to carry out the activity.

For its part, the second option does not require taking over production and a location is not strictly necessary. With a medium warehouse to store the product inventory it will be enough. The idea is that you carry out a study of the national and foreign cement brands and that you make a careful selection of which ones to sell, taking into account aspects such as the variety of the catalog, the quality of the products, the prices and the demand in the market. After that, you can make alliances with the same brands or with wholesale stores, assemble your inventory and start selling.

2. Post-construction cleaning service

After a construction work is finished, there are surplus materials, residues and waste that must be collected and disposed of correctly . This before the final closure of the project. Therefore, many companies in the union decide to hire providers of final cleaning services on site to take care of this work and thus save time and optimize functions. This results in a very valuable opportunity to enter successful construction businesses.

The portfolio handled by construction cleaning companies includes debris management, blemish removal, air freshening and deodorization. This is ideal to complement the construction tasks properly, because while these types of businesses are in charge of cleaning, builders can perform other types of finishes and finishes.

Here you need trained and experienced personnel, specialized cleaning machinery and sustainable cleaning products. In addition to knowledge of occupational health and safety protocols to control risks within construction.

3. Plumbing services

Another complementary service that can be offered in successful construction businesses is plumbing. There, work is carried out such as installation and maintenance of sewage and inspection of wells and sewers. Plumbers also take care of locating pipes and plumbing and plumbing in buildings. Without a doubt, indispensable and highly required tasks regardless of the type of project.

One of the advantages of this business is that you can start as an independent , offering professional services to construction companies. This if you have the experience, the certified knowledge and the equipment for it. In this way, you will be able to consolidate a client portfolio and work alternately on several projects .

Then, as you gain recognition, you can expand the business , including more staff and setting up a company specialized in this work.

4. Sale of sand

One of the essential materials in construction is sand. Although there are many stores that sell it, construction companies look for suppliers that work exclusively with the trade of this material, with the intention of making wholesale purchases and guaranteeing its acquisition in large quantities.

This is why this is one of the successful construction businesses that many independents point to. To start it, it is important that you carry out an investigation about the allowed locations for the extraction of sand . And that in turn you inform yourself about the legislation of your country that governs this type of activity.

Once the above is clear, the sale of construction sand can be worked in two ways. The first is through a sand deposit in the city , where you can store the material, serve customers and sell directly on site.

The second way is by dispatching the material at home and having only one storage warehouse. Here you can also offer the option for the client, after the purchase, to collect the material at the warehouse location.

In any of the options, remember to choose a location close to the extraction site that is easily accessible. And that it has the optimal conditions for loading and unloading the material.

5. Rental of construction machinery

In many construction projects, the choice is to rent the machinery instead of buying it, in order to execute medium and short-term contracts and thus reduce costs . As well as to carry out projects faster and contribute to business development.

As a result, this is a business that has a significant demand in the market, because the service can be requested by bricklayers, independent builders and large construction companies .

There is an extensive range of construction machinery, so the main thing is to identify the needs of your potential customers . And thus have the equipment most required in the sector, such as:

· Mixers

· Rammers

· Water pumps

· Concrete mixers

· Concrete trowels

· Air compressors

· Excavators

· Lift truck

You can start with the equipment with the highest demand and as the business grows, offer the most specialized and exclusive rental of machines .

6. Building materials business

This is one of the successful construction business ideas that encompasses almost all of the above ideas . Here you will have to select a location, set up a store and create alliances with suppliers and wholesalers. In addition, you must do a market study to gain knowledge of the most popular products . This with the aim of putting together a catalog that meets the needs of buyers. Finally, you will have to plan a promotion and sales strategy to boost the growth of your store.

Some of the materials that you can distribute in your business are:

· Cast

· Cement

· Bricks

· Steel

· Glass

· Sand

· Roof tiles

· Tiles

· Metallic profiles

· Scaffolding

· Rods

· PVC pipes

In the same way, you should include hand tools, instruments and equipment such as:

· Gauges

· Hammers

· Pliers

· Wheelbarrows

· Drills

· Sanders

· Saws

7. Demolition company

Another successful construction business, which is rarely talked about but has a considerable market share, is demolition services. Here, basically, you are in charge of demolishing homes, buildings and constructions located on land destined for new works.

You will offer your services to private and public entities that require it and that have the pertinent permits to carry out the demolition.

Demolitions, generally, are carried out in large cities or capitals , so it is important that you locate yourself, positions and offer your services in these locations. In addition, these types of companies usually offer excavation and rubble collection services. And they focus on the industrial and residential sectors mainly.

8. Remodeling of buildings

We end our list of successful construction businesses with this idea that is the protagonist in civil construction works. Well, the sector is not only concerned with carrying out building projects from scratch. It also handles renovation works for buildings that have flaws in their architecture, design or distribution of spaces . Therefore, the services of remodeling professionals are very necessary.

Here, you can partner with construction companies to be part of their supplier portfolio and work with them on different projects. In the same way, you can dedicate yourself to offering these services on your own and set up a remodeling and interior design agency . And so, take care of the remodeling of houses, apartments, offices and commercial establishments.

Final words

The construction industry MT65 SOLUTIONS LTD is in constant motion, because regardless of the season of the year it is common to see that new building works are started, as well as architectural projects, public works, structural reforms, etc. So if you are interested in this area and have the experience and knowledge to offer any of the related services, do not hesitate and start your venture.

How to deal with the anticorrosion of Roots blower?

Three lobe double oil tank Roots Blower are widely used in medical and pharmaceutical, semiconductor, mechanical chemical, low temperature equipment, electronics, metallurgy, petroleum mining and other fields, and their related technologies have also been developed by leaps and bounds. During the application process of the Roots blower, the blower will be corroded to different degrees due to different production processes. If the protective measures are not appropriate, the production will often be stopped due to the corrosion of the Roots blower. Therefore, the anti-corrosion of the blower is a practical problem that needs to be solved urgently to prolong the service life of the blower in the current production.

At present, domestic anti-corrosion technologies for blowers are mainly aimed at Roots blowers, water-ring blowers, steam blowers, liquid-ring blowers, diaphragm blowers, turbomolecular pumps, etc. The anti-corrosion technologies used mainly include three types:

1. By coating a layer of anti-corrosion coating on the surface of the Roots blower, such as chlorotrifluoroethylene anti-corrosion layer, Teflon coating, corrosion-resistant oxide layer or nitride layer, corrosion-resistant and weather-resistant paint, etc.;

Second, the improvement of anti-corrosion materials, commonly used coating materials are stainless steel, tin bronze, cemented carbide and other metal materials, natural rubber, phosphorus sheet, synthetic rubber, ceramics, plastics and other non-metallic materials, precision ceramics, organic polymers or New materials such as temperature-resistant, corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant polymer materials, among which polymer materials include fluoroplastics, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, etc.;

3. The structural transformation of the fan, such as the installation of an air chamber on the upper part of the body, and the installation of an upper-mounted corrosion-resistant gas-water separator.

We has invested a lot of manpower and material resources in the field of Roots blower anti-corrosion. It not only developed multi-layer nickel plating and nanotechnology in anti-corrosion technology, but also directly launched a stainless steel Roots blower, which can make the blower easily cope with high levels of hydrochloric acid. Corrosive medium environment, walking in the world's leading ranks.

The Compact integrated Roots blower efficiencyshows that high-pressure Roots blowers are generally steel castings, which are also common in the market. What are the anti-corrosion methods for Roots blowers? Which methods can ensure the integrity of our equipment and avoid the erosion of corrosive substances Woolen cloth?

1. Anti-corrosion coating

Generally, Roots fans made of steel castings will use outer coating for anti-corrosion. After the equipment is sprayed with anti-corrosion materials, it can effectively prevent the fan from being corroded.

2. Select anti-corrosion materials

Roots blowers are made of steel castings, stainless steel, and glass fiber reinforced plastic. The latter two are relatively expensive and generally used less. Roots blowers using stainless steel and glass fiber reinforced plastic can also effectively prevent equipment corrosion.

3. Internal anticorrosion

If the medium we transport has a certain degree of corrosiveness, then the inside of the fan needs to be sprayed with anti-corrosion materials, and spraying anti-corrosion metal can effectively prevent corrosion. The internal use of anti-corrosion materials can also choose electroplating, which can carry out anti-corrosion more uniformly.

Ming Ye Machinery products include three-leaf Roots blower, rotary blower, Air suspension centrifugal turbo blower , mainly serving electric power, petroleum, steel, metallurgy, chemical, steel and other industries, with broad market prospects. The company has pursued the sales and after-sales service tenet of "professional management, honest service, customer first" for many years, and the company's sales and after-sales service are all over the country. The company strives to create products with superior performance and stable operation for our customers. We sincerely hope to cooperate with you sincerely and create a beautiful chapter together!

What Are Uses of Carbide Rod?

Brief introduction to carbide rod

Carbide rod, commonly referred to as tungsten carbide bars, is a cemented carbide round rod. Carbide rod is a composite material created by powder metallurgy, to put it simply. It is made up of bonding metal and refractory metal compound. The word used locally differs significantly from cemented carbide, also referred to as tungsten carbide.

Uses of carbide rod

Carbide rod is mainly used for a drill bit, end mill, and cutter. Tools for cutting, stamping, and measuring can also be made out of it. It is utilized in the non-ferrous metal processing, printing, packaging, and papermaking sectors . Carbide rod is also frequently used to machine high-speed steel tools, cemented carbide cutters, NAS cutting tools, aviation tools, micro end milling cutters, tapered milling cutters, metric milling cutters, reaming pilot, electronic tools, step milling cutters, metal cutting saws, double guarantee gold drills, gun rods, angle cutter millings, cemented carbide Rotary files, and carbide tipped drills.

As production specifications, one, two, or three holes, a 30° or 40° spiral, straight or twisted, or nonporous solids are utilized. The principal tools for precision cutting of non-ferrous metals and submicron particle size YG6X cutting, glass fiber reinforced plastics, titanium alloy, etc. include submicron grain grade YG10X end milling cutters, drill bits, and cemented carbide bars.

Carbide rods can be used not only for cutting and drilling tools ,like micrometer, twist drill, drill vertical mining tool index, but also as input needles, various roller worn parts, and structural materials. In addition, it can be used in many fields , such as machinery, chemical industry, petroleum, electronics,etc.

Grades of carbide rods

Compared to MK6, grade YG6, YG8, and YG6X are more wear-resistant. Hard wood, cast iron, brass bars, aluminum alloy profiles, and other materials can all be employed with them. Hard wood, soft wood, black metal, and non-ferrous metals are all processed using the YG10 grade, which is wear- and impact-resistant.

Keshet Rewatches All of Scooby-Doo, Pt. 12: "Scooby Doo and a Mummy, Too"

("Scooby-Doo, Where Are You", Season 1 Episode 12)

AKA "We Forgot One Universal Monster Last Episode"

The episode opens on a view of a university campus, with the usual spooky musical sting in spite of nothing being visibly eerie... until we cut into a building identified “DEPARTMENT OF ARCHEOLOGY” (sic). Inside, a professor is introducing the gang to the mummified remains of Ankha, an ancient Egyptian ruler who was once “the most feared ruler”—though we’re never given a reason why he was feared. What did he do that was so terrible?

I’ll note that the subtitles spell the name as “Anka”, but the Scooby Doo wiki gives the more standard-looking “Ankha”. As is oddly typical of adults who are not the culprit in a given episode, the Professor is never given a name, though he introduces his colleague as Dr. Najib, who helped bring the mummy over for the university’s replica of Ankha’s tomb.

A middle eastern man with narrow eyes and permanently lowered brow, voiced by Vic Perrin in an almost exact duplicate of his portrayal of Jonny Quest villain Doctor Zin, Najib raises the subject of the curse of Ankha, relating his hope that it did not follow them. I’ll say it right here, because it’s not much of a spoiler when so many flags are triggered right away: Najib is the culprit, and it’s another example of casual racism this season. The thieving, scheming Arab was a popular villain trope of the day, and while Najib isn’t quite as overt as some other variations on the trope, he’s far from a deconstruction or a subversion.

As Najib makes his exit, the gang agree to help the Professor, and Shaggy lays his filthy mitts on an ancient golden medallion the entire cast identify as a coin in spite of a lack of any evidence that it is currency. As Shaggy manhandles priceless ancient artifacts, the Professor explains it’s part of an unsolved mystery, and suggests the gang pick up some sandwiches on his dollar in order to satisfy Shaggy’s appetite.

While they’re gone, the Professor hears a crash, and comes out to find the mummy gone and a mummy-shaped hole in the glass doors. Meanwhile, Shaggy receives an order of three burgers and three sandwiches—liverwurst, à la mode. The chef spoons bright pink ice cream onto three open-face sandwiches, and Shaggy hands him a dollar bill and a half-dollar coin... that is actually the ancient Egyptian coin!

Shaggy has unconsciously pocketed it, demonstrating kleptomaniac tendencies that are never commented upon. The gang pay properly and Fred suggests they grab the sandwiches and get back to the Professor to return the coin. I’ll note that the food is clearly served on dine-in plates, rather than to-go containers, and when the food is taken from the counter off-screen, it makes a plate-rattling sound. Did they just walk out with burgers and open-faced sandwiches in-hand, sans any kind of container or wrapper?

When the gang return, they find the Professor in his office, where he’s been TURNED TO STONE! “14-karat stone”, Shaggy quips. Velma, bastion of rational, scientific skepticism, observes that only one person could be responsible: the mummy.

The gang look outside and find the busted glass, but Velma notes that it’s broken in rather than out, making it clear this wasn’t an exit. Fred orders the gang to split up and search for the mummy, and Shaggy soon accidentally discovers the bandaged terror hiding in the Janitor’s Closet. Locking him in, Shaggy, Velma, and Scooby flee in terror, instead of doing the reasonable thing and making sure the mummy is properly trapped.

Thus ensues the usual hide-and-chase sequence, although the mummy only groans and shambles slowly rather than running. Of course, there’s still extensive damage done to priceless museum artifacts by the B Team’s attempts to hide. Eventually cornered, the mummy begins to demand, “coin... coin!!” and nods and grunts in the affirmative when Velma suggests he means the old Egyptian one, and not the quarter Shaggy offers him.

When Velma insists they don’t give him what he wants, it falls to Scooby to defend them, and he demands a hefty price of Scooby Snacks.

I believe this is the first time we see a box of Scooby Snacks, which are drawn as being about half the size of previous appearances, and the box simply reads “SCOOBY SNACKS”. It’s also the first implication that “Scooby Snacks” is the name of a product on the market, rather than just what the gang call dog treats, or a home-made specialty.

Emboldened, Scooby tries taking a swing at the mummy with his left foreleg, but there’s a sound like a steel drum being struck, and Scooby’s metacarpals collapse and fold inward like a limp accordion tube. This does not deter the carb-loaded canine, who dashes offscreen and returns in a karate gi, and begins to yelp out kiais so badly stereotypical that the captioning refused to display them as he chops at the motionless mummy. It’s no more effective, so Scooby tries one last attack:

A little of the old razzmatazz.

At first, the soft-shoe routine seems to be Scooby’s attempt at desertion, but in spite of Velma’s shock, the dog sneaks back in behind the advancing mummy and nails his rags to the floor with a hammer.

Once again, the trio flee without making sure that Ankha is captured, even though Velma says they’re going to tell Daphne and Fred that they just did that. Meanwhile, Fred and Daphne are exploring outside, having found what look to be the mummy’s footprints going into a construction area. They discover Dr. Najib’s car, with what appears to be the doctor turned to stone, and wonder if Shaggy and Velma have run into the mummy themselves, not seeming to be concerned that their friends could be turned to stone any moment.

Having returned, Shaggy and Velma find that the mummy has escaped and disappeared, and inspect the piece of bandage left nailed to the floor. They retreat to a laboratory to investigate the new-feeling wrappings and determine its actual age, where an unattended Scooby drinks three large glasses of a chartreuse liquid. There’s an odd screen-filling animation of an explosion that fades in and out, and Scooby’s head has turned into that of a frog!

He lets out a few confused ribbits, and the effect reverses, explosion included—without Shaggy or Velma noticing. Meanwhile, the mummy reappears, demanding the coin before Velma can finish her analysis. While the two humans flee the room in an improvised smokescreen, Scooby is left behind, and the duo only realize as Daphne and Fred rejoin them. The room is empty except for evidence of a struggle, and a window is left open in the back. Fred worries that he’ll end up like the Professor and Dr. Najib...

...and sure enough, the gang discover a stone Scooby back outside. As Shaggy mourns the loss of his friend, the real Scooby digs his way up out of the ground to join him in tearfully weeping over the sad scene.

“Look, Scoob! You’ve been turned to stone!”

Rather than questioning Scooby about what happened to him, the gang decide to backtrack and ignore the great huge clue right in front of them.

Investigating the Professor’s office, Velma learns that Ankha was also the wealthiest ruler of ancient Egypt, and thinks she’s discovered the solution to the mystery of the coin, finding a photo of a statue of a hippo-headed figure that may or may not be a badly rendered representation of the goddess Taweret (understandably lacking the usual large sagging breasts of images of that deity; this is a kids’ show). The likeness of the coin appears with some other symbols on the statue’s belly, but just as the gang realize it, Ankha busts down the office door.

Retreating to the second floor, the gang duck into the wood shop, where—i’m sorry, why is there a WOOD SHOP in a university’s DEPARTMENT OF ARCHAEOLOGY?

Fred tells Daphne to hit the lights so that they can hide in the darkness of a room full of sharp objects and heavy machinery, but Daphne hits the wrong switch and turns on a handheld, corded buzz saw that spins to life and climbs up the wall by cutting through the surface of it.

Now, in addition to majoring in anthropology and library science, i took an elective class in the extremely well-appointed woodworking facility at SUNY Purchase College, and i have at least a basic sense of shop safety. So i speak from something of a position of experience when i say, WHY WOULD YOU PUT THOSE SWITCHES NEXT TO EACH OTHER?

As the saw cuts across the ceiling, back down the wall, and past the mummy, it moves on to circle the gang, cutting through the floor and sending the gang dropping down to the floor below... where there’s a swimming pool.

WHAT KIND OF ARCHAEOLOGY DEPARTMENT IS THIS? A WOOD SHOP? A SWIMMING POOL? WHO DESIGNED THIS COLLEGE, MC ESCHER?

The enraged mummy tosses the saw down at the gang, and its improbably long power cord reaches far enough that the saw moves through the water, chasing the gang as they paddle for their lives. Kudos to the saw’s manufacturers for so extensively waterproofing it, but i really don’t think a 100 meter power cord is a necessity.

Continuing to flee the mummy, Shaggy and Scooby enter the construction area from before, stumbling into a work space where Shaggy notices bags of “Quick Drying Mold Cement”, and “spray molds” that actually appear to be just wooden crates with cement poured in around an empty space in the shape of a standing human being.

“Ruh-huh!” Scooby replies. You could’ve told them that, Scooby. It would have been helpful.

I’ll note that the mold is in the shape of someone standing or laying straight, and all the “stone” figures we’ve seen so far were sitting down. This is what happens when you don’t communicate plot details to your art department, people.

The mummy of Ankha catches up, and the boys flee into a groundskeeper’s shack. When Shaggy peeks out to see if the coast is clear, however...

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! Yes, for the love of god.

Ankha continues to demand the coin, but meanwhile, Scooby and Shaggy find the Professor bound, gagged, and stuffed into a bag in the corner. Shaggy pulls down his gag, and asks, “are you alright, Professor?”

“I’m fine!”

“Groovy,” Shaggy replies, putting the gag back in place. “Be back for you later.”

The duo make their escape and the chase scene starts up again, now involving a ride on an improbably speedy lawnmower through an empty gymnasium, and a bit more in the way of trampoline antics. This show loves trampoline antics. Mid-bounce, Scooby, grabs onto a pair of gymnastics rings, and uses his hind legs to kick the mummy across the gym, dunking his bandaged butt into the basketball hoop.

It’s stuff like this that led to the Globetrotters crossovers, i’m sure.

The gang unmask "Ankha”, who, as i’d spoiled ahead of time, is Dr. Najib. He had faked his own petrification as part of a plan to get his hands on the coin—actually the key to the statue in the photo from the book. The gang and the Professor discover that a slot on the back of the statue serves as the keyhole, because apparently no-one was ever diligent enough to examine the back side of this stone figure, and its mouth opens to reveal a “glass beetle”.

Not quite, says the Professor.

There’s no resolution about what happens to this obscenely large “diamond”, identified as such at a glance without any kind of testing of its hardness. Scooby finds the whereabouts of the real mummy of Ankha, and the gang celebrate as Dr. Najib is probably in the midst of arguing his diplomatic immunity somewhere downtown.

And once again, no “meddling kids”, not even a scene of the authorities arriving. All we see of Najib unmasked is the usual silent, glaring fuming, and the explanation falls to the gang and the Professor relaxing calmly in the epilogue.

(like what i’m doing here? It’s not what pays the bills, so i’d really appreciate it if you could send me a bit at my paypal.me or via my ko-fi. Click here to see more entries in this series of posts, or here to go in chronological order)

The Perfect Tiles for Farmhouse Decor

We love staying on top of the hottest and newest interior design trends, but there are some home aesthetics that will never go out of style! One of our personal favorites has to be farmhouse decor! When it comes to creating a cozy country home or envisioning a cottage aesthetic, this is one decorating style that will always adapt with the times. Recent years have seen updates to this trend as it spread from rural areas into the suburbs and cities, absorbing other design styles into its homey and welcoming feel. From the recent modern farmhouse decor craze that combines white barn-inspired houses with galvanized steel accents, black trim, and rustic wood details, to elegant French country homes that embrace luxurious styling and organic details. A lot more goes into modern farmhouse decor than a fireclay farm sink, neutral paint for your shaker cabinets and a Skinny Chevron Calacatta Gold Mosaic Tile backsplash! We’re diving into the different ways to style farmhouse style interiors and how to create these stunning looks in your own home! Pairing Tiles with Farmhouse Kitchen Decor Ideas Rustic Farmhouse Design with Wood Look Tiles Although there are many different design elements that you can add to a country-inspired home, a rustic farmhouse kitchen is usually the first one that comes to our minds! Natural elements keep the true heart of a farmhouse or country home, and can be incorporated into any interior style! Rustic home decor can still be sophisticated, as this beautiful earth-toned kitchen shows. The backsplash with Nova Hex Wooden Beige Marble Tile ties in with the floating shelves and wood tones of the cabinetry to keep the kitchen design natural. The subtle geometric detail in the hexagon marble tile backsplash is picked up in the Granada rombus pendant light that adds a warm glow with a brass finish. DIY Shiplap Walls Made Easy We have Chip and Joanna Gaines and the Magnolia Farms/Fixer Upper craze to thank for popularizing shiplap walls in kitchens, living rooms, and bathrooms! This rustic design element was used primarily as siding for barns and other rustic outbuildings, and was frequently used on turn of the century farmhouse exteriors as well. Many renovated houses incorporated it into the design, restoring wooden boards or repurposing them into other rooms in the house. Whitewashed shiplap has become a trending wall treatment, and thanks to wood-look porcelain planks are easier to achieve than ever if you want to recreate this HGTV-approved look at home! Our Tribeca Mixed Planks for Wall are an easy way to install your own DIY shiplap with a lot less effort than installing wood planks - the durable porcelain and weathered wood look are a great way to combine rustic farmhouse home decor elements with a long-lasting building material! This kitchen combines them with Tribeca Blanco wood-look porcelain floor planks, butcher block counters, and oil-rubbed bronze drawer pulls on the white cabinets to create a sophisticated cottage design. Add a Glamorous Finish to your Farmhouse Kitchen If you prefer a luxurious element to your home decor, you can still create a cozy cottage style kitchen! It’s no secret that we love Mother of Pearl tiles for their glamorous shine - Geometric Pearl White Thassos Shell Tile is a stunning white backsplash tile for a modern farmhouse kitchen thanks to a tone-on-tone combination of shell and Thassos marble. It will add luminous light to even the darkest kitchen, creating a welcoming ambiance that’s perfect for the hearth and center of the home. Pairing it with a Classic Blue paint color for the cabinets and a fireclay farm sink was the perfect way to tie in an elevated wall tile with more down-to-earth decor and create a harmonious kitchen that is part welcoming and part grand! The elegant brushed nickel fixtures and drawer pulls are the perfect finishing touch for the traditional kitchen style. Farmhouse Bathroom Design Ideas Sweet Southern Homestead is a master of farmhouse decor, as her stunning Instagram feed of her Kentucky house can attest! She did every room from top to bottom in a modern farmhouse style, and the master bathroom is no exception! She sourced antique doors from Antiques & Vintage Texas to add the perfect aged patina to this stunning airy white farmhouse bathroom! She wanted to go new for the flooring, however; making Retro Blanco Hex porcelain tiles the perfect choice. Similar to the faux shiplap above, these floor tiles are designed to resemble antique wood, but with a porcelain finish that is scratch and slip-resistant. Along with the vintage doors, they added the perfect accent to the freestanding cast iron pedestal tub and old world wrought iron chandelier from Antique Farmhouse! Classic White and Blue Farmhouse Bathroom with a Twist Airy white and splashes of blue have cemented themselves as the traditional color palette for classic farmhouse interior design. It’s not hard to see why when you factor in a white vanity with a porcelain vessel sink and brushed nickel faucet and hardware - it’s a classic for good reason! The white wicker laundry baskets are a great addition to keep the country charm feeling even when it comes to storage necessities, but there’s no reason that tradition has to feel boring! To give this white and blue traditional farmhouse bathroom a fresh finish, the team installed White Striped Diamonds Marble Mosaic Tile to add a sense of movement and creative design to the space! A Powder Room with Farmhouse Charm A powder room or half-bath can be a great way to give guests a glimpse of your home decor taste! Smaller bathrooms can easily feel cluttered, so keeping the details on the wall is a great way to maximize space and style all at once! The Tribeca Mixed Planks showcase their range in this cozy aqua and champagne bronze half-bathroom, with an antiqued vanity and vessel sink. In keeping with the minimalist decor, a ladder bathroom shelf provides over the toilet storage options without taking up too much space! The simple and rustic etagere and woven baskets are the perfect way to finish off this bathroom with elegant country style! Other ways to style Farmhouse Decor Industrial farmhouse style - Rustic meets modern in industrial farmhouse style! This design aesthetic draws inspiration from farm equipment and machinery mixed in with rustic wood and classic white elements.

How to Make Shoe Cutting Dies

Mass production of footwear requires cutting every type of shoe material. Shoe leather, fabric, foam, and reinforcing materials must all be cut into the shoe pattern shapes. While there are many new technologies for cutting shoe materials such as a laser, water jet, and CNC drag knife; the steel rule cutting die is still the most common for footwear production.

Shoe parts cutting dies

Used to cut out shoe parts, these steel cutting dies and shoe sole cutters look just like cookie cutters. Each mould and dies is made of sharpened rule steel then coated with rust proof paint and marked with the shoe size and model number. Making a shoe requires hundreds of dies. One die for each part, for every size of a shoe. For high volume shoe production, the shoe factory may need many sets of cutting dies.

Making footwear cutting dies

The cutting die maker starts with the cut paper pattern templates of the shoe pattern. The worker will then bend the rule steel into shape using the paper pattern as a guide.

The worker uses a special bench that will help bend the metal. The bench has a foot-operated anvil that moves the tool head to make the bends. A skilled worker can make each cutting die outline in just a few minutes.

The final operations to make the shoe cutting dies include coating it with rust proof paint and a final check to make sure the cutting edge is very sharp. While there are many operations required to make shoe cuttings dies the production is fast, the materials and labor are relatively inexpensive. For small orders, a cutting die fee may be charged by the shoe factory, but usually, the cost of the cutting dies are accounted for the LOP (labor, overhead and profit) charges.

What is Tungsten Carbide Nozzle?

Cemented carbide nozzle is made of precision machinery and cemented carbide material (superhard alloy). The bending resistance is 2300n / mm and the hardness is hra90 degree. When machining cemented carbide nozzle, we achieve precision grinding and surface treatment to achieve the hole roughness of ra0.1 and the roughness of both ends of R is Ra0.025. There is a scientific radius of curvature design at the two entrances. This design ensures the smooth passage of the thread. Due to the whole material processing, there is no elevation angle on the drilling hole, and the bending and blocking phenomenon has been improved compared with ruby nozzle. Cemented carbide nozzle is made by hot pressing and sintering hot straight hole and hill hole. Because of its hardness, low density, excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance, cemented carbide nozzle has been widely used in sand blasting and shot peening equipment, which ensures that the product can be used in the best air and abrasive for a long time.

advantages

Advantages of cemented carbide nozzle: corrosion resistance, long service life, excellent performance, high cost performance, not easy to wear.

Carbide nozzle and other nozzles: common nozzle materials include cast iron, ceramics, tungsten carbide, silicon carbide, boron carbide. Ceramic nozzles are only used in non aggressive light equipment and abrasive in explosion cabinets. Tungsten, silicon, and boron carbide are the most popular blasting applications due to their long service life. The following is a list of carbide nozzles and their comparison with other nozzles.

The shape of nozzle hole of cemented carbide determines its air flow pattern. The nozzle generally has a straight hole or a limiting hole, a hill hole.

1. Straight hole (cemented carbide nozzle 1): the straight hole nozzle forms a sealed air flow mode for on-site or internal air flow. This facilitates the realization of small tasks, such as cleaning parts, weld forming, cleaning handrails, steps, plaques, or stone carvings and other materials.

2. Traditional long hill design (carbide nozzle 2)

3. The orifice nozzle forms a sufficient airflow pattern, and the grinding speed can be increased up to 100% for a given pressure. The best choice of Venturi surface is to improve the productivity of the nozzle. Compared with the straight hole nozzle, the productivity of the long mound nozzle can be increased by 40% when the abrasive consumption is about 40%.

4. Double venturi (carbide nozzle 4): Double venturi and wide throat nozzle are the enhanced version of long venturi nozzle. The double dome style can be thought of as having two nozzles between a set of slits and holes to allow the incoming atmosphere to enter the downstream section. The outlet end is also wider than the traditional nozzle. These two modifications are made to increase the size of the airflow pattern and minimize abrasive loss at a speed.

5. Wide throat nozzle (carbide nozzle 5): wide throat nozzle is equipped with a large outlet and a large divergent outlet. When matched with the same size hose, they can increase productivity by 15% over a smaller throat nozzle. When wide throat nozzles also have large divergent holes, they can use a lower abrasive mode under higher pressure, and the yield can be as high as 60%.

For some lattice bridges, the back of the flange, the inside of the pipe type of shrink point, can effectively use angled nozzles. Many operators spend a lot of time and abrasive to wait for a bounce to complete the job. The use of angle nozzle as long as hair less time is always able to repair quickly, reducing the overall time.

Application

Cemented carbide has a series of excellent properties, such as high hardness, wear resistance, good strength and toughness, heat resistance and corrosion resistance. Especially, its high hardness and wear resistance remain unchanged even at 500 ℃ and high hardness at 1000 ℃. Cemented carbide is widely used as tool material, such as turning tool, milling cutter, planer, drill bit, boring tool, etc. it is used to cut cast iron, non-ferrous metal, plastic, chemical fiber, graphite, glass, stone and ordinary steel, as well as refractory materials such as heat-resistant steel, stainless steel, high manganese steel and tool steel.

Cemented carbide nozzles offer the advantages of economy and longer service life when it is unavoidable to rough load and unload and media used to cut abrasives (glass beads, steel balls, steel sand, minerals or cinders). Traditionally, cemented carbide is the preferred material for cemented carbide nozzle.

Cemented carbide nozzle is widely used in surface treatment, sandblasting, spray painting, electronic, chemical process and other industries.

Cemented carbide nozzles are also used in different applications, such as for wire straightening, wire guides and other aspects.

WHEN TO USE A CONCRETE SCARIFIER

A Concrete Scarifier is one of the most productive pieces of surface prep equipment for heavy removal jobs and to prep for overlay. Some people find it difficult to identify when using a scarifier is a better option over another piece of equipment such as a grinder or shot blaster. It is important to remember that there isn’t necessarily one piece of surface prep equipment that is better than others, each machine has its benefits and will work better in certain situations. Understanding when different machines are most effective will ensure maximum efficiency and optimum results.

In this blog, we highlight a few of the situations where a scarifier would be the most effective option. Obviously, the use of a scarifier is not limited to the following situations.

TRIP HAZARDS

Trip hazards can occur in many different environments, but one of the most common is sidewalks. Sidewalk slabs can often become uneven and raised at the expansion joints because of continuous exposure to varying, and even extreme weather, as well as frequent traffic. As a result, you end up with trip hazards that need to be reduced.

These trip hazards can be drastically uneven between each sidewalk slab. If you were to use a concrete grinder, it would take much longer than a scarifier. The speed and aggressiveness that scarifier cutters offer, makes reducing these trip hazards fairly quick and painless.

We’re not saying that you can’t use a grinder - depending on the size of the trip hazard you may be able to get away with using a grinder, but generally a scarifier is more effective and productive.

Lastly, since it’s a sidewalk, the aggressive profile left behind by a scarifier is ideal for helping to prevent someone from slipping when its wet.

REMOVAL OF CONCRETE GREATER THAN 1/8” (3MM)

When you need to remove concrete that is greater than 1/8” (3mm) thick because of a bad pour or other demolition, a scarifier will be able to do this much faster than a grinder. A scarifier will not only save you significant money in time spent, but also in tooling costs.

THICKER COATINGS

When it comes to coating removal, you could use a shot blaster, grinder or scarifier depending on the coating being removed, operator preference, surrounding conditions etc. However, if you are removing a thick coating and are not needing to polish the floor after, a scarifier will be the fastest most effective form of removal. Not to say that a grinder with PCD tooling can't remove some of these coatings as well, its just that generally for this coating removal a scarifier is faster and more effective because of its aggressiveness.

END GOAL

What is being done with the floor after the concrete is planed down, or the coating is removed, will have impact on what type of equipment you choose for the job. Because there are so many variables that come into play, its difficult to make a generalized statement that one is always better than another. In some situations, like if you’re looking to achieve a polished finish after a coating removal, a scarifier may be too aggressive, especially if the user is inexperienced. In other situations, grinding will take way too long and won’t give you the profile you need for certain overlays, so a scarifier is a better option. Sometimes using multiple types of equipment is the best option.

Ultimately, choosing your equipment depending on the end goal and the situation is the best way to ensure maximum efficiency and the best results. If you’re ever unsure about what process, or what equipment to use for your job, do some research, or talk to the equipment manufacturer, rental house or dealer you’re getting your equipment from.

At the end of the day, scarifiers are extremely effective for many different types of removal and surface prep jobs. As you gain experience, you will develop your own way of doing things and find which equipment is most effective for your business. However, keeping an open mind about all the options you available to you in the industry will prove to be a benefit.
