Bolting Something Together: Ensuring Strong Connections
The first project involves bolting something together using special bolts and DTI washers to ensure that all connections are strong. The project includes a lot of wires and cables that need to be carefully managed to avoid kinks and fatigue. The speaker broke a cable earlier and had to spend an hour repairing it. To avoid sagging, they are using a Tensitron 300 to put the cables under tension. Despite being unsure if they are on schedule, the speaker remains optimistic about the project’s success.
Building a Cable Net: Preventing Deformation and Breakage
The second project involves building a cable net for an artwork. The triangles in the net hold the cables together and prevent deformation. The lower pulley is currently being tested using weights to ensure its strength. The cables need to be arranged in a specific order to prevent rubbing and potential breakage. To test the cable arrangement, the team is building a platform and twisting the wires to fit properly. However, the speaker expresses concern about the progress and the possibility of failure, given the project’s complexity.
Conclusion
Building a successful project requires careful planning, attention to detail, and the use of specialized tools and techniques. The two projects discussed in this article highlight the importance of ensuring strong connections and preventing deformation and breakage. Despite the challenges and uncertainties, the speakers remain optimistic about the projects’ success. By following these strategies, we can increase the chances of building strong and successful projects.
