My annual Christmas shopping usually is a trip to the liquor store, but it is a little different this year. I have a grandson that is just crazy about trains. So in my brilliant mind I want to get him one this year. My wife, bless her heart always does all the buying but she is also notorius for buying plastic junk. I want this boy to have a good Lionel train set that will last him a life time and if he persues this hobby will be a good ideas for future presents. I spent the entire day yesterday looking at toy trains, that is if you could find one. One would think that with everyone out of work and our economy in the tank, that on a rainy, nasty Tuesday that shopping would be a breeze. I am here to tell you that every store I went to was so crowded that you could not push a shopping cart around in it. I have seen some crowds and toysRus rates right up there with the best of them! Guess what, no trains! I was at no less than a dozen big stores and all I could find was the battery operated chinese Junk!! After a tiring day I came home and got on the computer and found a man forty miles away that has a train hobby shop and he has what I want, and the upshot is that the price is with in twenty dollars of that crap I was looking at. While out and about I could not help but notice what other folks were buying for kids. Video games and everything electric and plastic to ride in or on. No steam engines or erector sets and for sure no decent electric trains. Then this morning as I was catching the news I see the youth of today have a new recreation, its knocking down store displays, the one they showed was a huge display of canned goods, this idiot threw a body block on it and cans went every where....I don't blame the kids I have to think that the majority are being raised without imagination or a work ethic and its a crying shame.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
