What happened to the Crescent wrench is easily explained by anyone who has seen a product from design to execution before. A factory in the USA set out to make a good adjustable wrench. Hundreds of engineers and employees worked in a building to make a good wrench. When their machines didn’t work, they came up with solutions. When their quality was lacking, they implemented better processes. They had a list of trusted suppliers. They could guarantee that the materials that came in would be imbued with their vision and intent when the product came out. The intent and will of all those people built up in one place over time.

Acting as buyers isn’t a mandate. Dallas also has time to finish with a bottom-five record and potentially keep the pick owed to Atlanta (top-five protection). But if making the playoffs remains a goal, the Mavericks need another wing.

Folks, stop the whining. This is actually not that complicated. If this procedure pisses you off, chances are you’re not doing oil changes by yourself even on a vehicle with “normal” placement of the oil filter.

I have to agree though, I’m useless at eyeballing distances and such, I just use a measuring stick instead. Interestingly almost everyone here in Sweden still calls it an “inch stick” even though they are marked in m.

Um, no. ‘Manufacturers’ are having trouble selling new cars because used ones are routinely going over 200K miles with a reasonable maintenance schedules (oil/filter changer, plugs at 100K, etc.). The used market is robust because of this. My 2008 Bullitt Mustang was as strong as the day I bought it at 135K miles, with regular oil changes and plugs at 95K, and used less than a quart of oil every 6K miles (and it still had the original brake pads and clutch). No doubt in my mind it would have gone 200K miles if I hadn’t traded it in on a new one.

The global automotive timing belt market is likely to grow steadily during the forecast period. The rise in number of races that use diverse vehicles having fluctuating engine sizes is expected to fuel the demand for high-performance vehicles including SUVs, monster trucks, dirt bikes, sprint cars, solar cars, and touring cars that consists of the interference engines. This is going to increase the need for timing belts as it plays a vital role in the interference engine.

BIPM’s director, Martin Milton, told the Associated Press he does not see the event as a sad development, but as “a moment of celebration.” He says this is because it will be the last world measurement standard to “finally be replaced by new innovation.”

For NASA, Cassini’s daring and risky Grand Finale has been more than justified with the host of data returned, with Cassini Project Science Linda Spilker saying, “Almost everything going on in that region turned out to be a surprise.  That was the importance of going there, to explore a place we’d never been before. And the expedition really paid off – the data is tremendously exciting.
