Lesson learned, appreciate the PM

[PDXGS]

My group at NASA Ames made experimental suits.
AX-2

AX-2 Spacesuit at the Udvar-Hazy Center | National Air and Space Museum

Designed and constructed at NASA - Ames Research Center - mid 1960s. Lunar prototype, designed to operate at 5 psi with stovepipe joints.

AX-3

Pressure Suit, AX-3

The AX-3 was designed at NASA Ames Research Center in the middle 1970s. A prototype, it was created to prove that a highly mobile suit requiring little effort to operate could use an internal operating pressure of 8 pounds per square inch.

AX-5, which I worked on.

All three are at the Udvar-Hazy Center-aka the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum annex at Dulles.
One AX-5 is at JSC.
Parts of the AX-5 have gone on to inform the next generation high pressure/zero-prebreathe suits.



To make this thread relevant and more edgy, I prefer Borka torque tools.....and ILC top brass were corrupt MFers back in the day.

She is working on her technique....everything is falling apart so she cant keep the "aperture" open long enough to develope the film....

A Woman's Right To Pleasure is an erotic assortment of artwork and essays produced in New York which celebrates female pleasure, compiled as an 'act of resistance', its author told the Guardian.

Seems like a "hard" way of doing things.........shit, I crack myself up

Once won a match....

Yeah, we've all won a match somewhere, sometime......

It’s a skim bed chassis.

Wait. Was it bedded to your action? It makes a difference.

So I think the lesson learned here is to buy a savage.

Re: NASA, I was at Ames...in Mtn View, CA

I used to work on the C-141a stationed there from time to time.

 

[Im2bent]

My bad....didn't realize we needed fractional inch pounds.

The one I showed I guess you could go between scale marks for .5 or sub half for .25.

At +\- 3% accuracy it wouldn't matter.

For something to measure inch pounds at fractional amounts and to have an accuracy rating to make it legit you must ask NASA what they use and pay accordingly.

Did you say torque wrench from nasa?

Ask her.....

 

[308pirate]

Wait, @obx22

I found what you need

Ok I nearly peed laughing so hard

Note to self - the next time that someone comes along, asks a silly question, and then gets all stubborn after getting replies they don't like, I really need to fully quote them in case they later act like a bitch and attempt to cover up the evidence.

Torque? What torque...I never said anything about no torque.

Ok, now we need to hear the whole story.....

Ok, now we need to hear the whole story.....

1. OP asks for a 0-70 in-lb torque wrench that can adjust in 0.25 in-lb (~0.3%) increments.
2. Everyone asks WTF and says that this is generally impractical.
3. OP goes off on a tangent about barrel tuners.
4. More WTF from the peanut gallery.
5. Spacesuits? Yep - spacesuits. Apparently it's a thing amongst Hide members.
6. OP nukes thread and claims that he learned a lesson - about what, we don't know.

And now I've got a weird boner because of Marisa Tomei talking about torque wrenches. Just another day on the Hide.

 

[smoothy8500]

Oh, I thought the OP had "reported you" for some bs complaint. Yeah, he was being extra special as my kids would say....And yes, miss Tomei is still hot.

What is the Rockwell hardness on that boner in fractional measurements......asking for a friend.

Sir, can you please clear your 649 notifications?

Not until 1k. I'm holding firm on this!

Depends on fill ratio and age.

 

[pmclaine]

Really will need to use a "Prick Punch" during the testing.

Trying to find a tester that can measure to 0.25 points on the C scale - please stand by.

hmmm with a rockwell hardness of under 1 you may want to seek the help of a urologist.

More like trying to figure out if it's 64.75 or a nice round 65. Ms Tomei demands precision.
