If you have ever been in a manufacturing plant you will see all kinds of machinery. If you think about it, everything you see has been made. Very seldom do you have anything in the raw form. Even most organic food has been handled and packaged to get to you. There are television shows based entirely on how things are made and it is fascinating. They show how cars are made including the automotive roll forming process prior to the typical automotive assembly line we're accustomed to seeing. They show how raw materials are made into the products that can then be made into more refined products.

When looking at some of these processes the question always comes to mind, how much of it is art and how much science and engineering. Maybe it can even go into the realm of a mix. It can be art and science. After all, isn't a growing flower both? The uncoiling of a Jasmine plant is fascinating as is watching an uncoiler spinning off strands of coiled copper wire in a manufacturing plant. They both require perfect timing and incredible engineering. Most people watching a time lapse video of a plant growing don't think about how the stresses and strains of gravity and other forces of Mother Nature impact the ability to produce such beauty and intricacy. However, if you are an engineer in the manufacturing world, you may very well ask those questions when looking at a growing plant.

If you are a creator of bending machines then you may be paying attention to how the earth bends and molds itself into mountains and how old pine trees stay bent over for decades to be some of the oldest trees on earth yet remain so in often harsh conditions. To see the beauty of art and form in manufacturing equipment may be a stretch but then enjoying your surroundings is much less stressful than looking at everything as just another piece of metal.

A leader in engineering art form is Samco Machinery. They create the most efficient automotive roll forming machines and you may even find an art form in the use of their uncoiler with their bending machines if you use your imagination.

Government auto emissions control legislation mandates that virtually all cars built or sold in the U.S. come equipped with a catalytic converter. A smart device, catalytic converters help to convert dangerous and polluting exhaust gases into less harmful carbon dioxide and water. As helpful of a device that it is, there are some hazards that come with the use of a catalytic converter. Read on to learn what you need to know about your vehicle's catalytic converter.

Many consider a catalytic converter to be a godsend. With pollution levels ever climbing, the U.S. government acted to reduce harmful pollutants in a step to clean up the environment. The Environmental Protection Agency was formed by the Nixon Administration and the agency was instrumental in passing the Clean Air Act to help America control pollution. Since 1975 virtually every passenger vehicle has come equipped with a catalytic converter.

As helpful as catalytic converters can be, they can be problematic. Besides failure, which generally goes unnoticed until your vehicle flunks its next inspection, it is the intense heat of the unit that can cause problems.

If you work on your own vehicle, you need to let your car cool down completely before working near the exhaust system. Catalytic converters get very hot, as hot as 1800 degrees, and any burn sustained from touching a hot converter can be very dangerous, even deadly.

Motorists have also learned that a catalytic converter can be a fire hazard. For the past three decades police and fire department reports have indicated that many car fires have been started because a motorist parked their car over dry leaves. Even when the engine is off the hot converter can drop a spark which can ignite leaves underneath. If that happens, your car can be engulfed in mere minutes and destroyed by the conflagration.

There are also hazards that occur to the catalytic converter itself. Because the unit burns at such hot temperatures, catalytic converters can suffer rapid thermal deactivation. Some experts suggest switching to synthetic engine oil to help reduce phosphorous contaminants a known contributor to failure.

No, you cannot legally remove your catalytic converter as you may become subject to stiff fines and penalties. Yes, if your car was built before 1975, none of these concerns matter to ou so enjoy your classic and let her rip without pollution controls holding you back!

Bosch Wiper Blade - 2001-2004 Volkswagen Jetta Wagon 4 CYL AZG/AVH


Many people know that for the first 2 years after passing your motorbike test you are normally restricted to riding a small bike.

What many people don't know is that if you are over 21 you can actually take what is called a direct access motorbike test.

This course trains you to ride larger motorbikes. At the end of the direct access motorbike training you take an advanced motorbike test on a 500cc (or minimum 35kw / 46.6 bhp) bike. If you pass this test then you can ride any size motorbike completely unrestricted!

The course can be sat at various places and over a varying amount of time, dependent of how much tuition you need to get up to scratch.

There is however a change in the regulations planned for sometime next year. (2008)

These changes will result in the need to take your motorbike test in a 'super test centre'. The new components of this test will include a swerve test, and other manoeuvres. These new parts of the test will be carried out off the public roads in the new super centres. Each super centre will need around 2.5 acres of tarmac, and will cost 1.5million each.

The problem may come that there may be only 65 of these new centres, and many people are worried that this may well cause a huge backlog and a big increase in the expense of the motorbike test.

The change is expected to come into effect in either September or October 2008, so best book your direct access course ASAP!
