    STAINLESS STEEL TRI SQUARE



  A Combination Square is a hand tool used for multiple purposes in and It is composed of a blade rule and one or more interchangeable heads that may be affixed to it. The most common head on these hand tools is the standard or square head which is used to lay out or check right and 45° angles. Check out the large 24" Combination Square at DMSeeleys Hand Tools.



  A right angle is the standard by which all carpenters build. When corners meet at 90 degrees, drawers fit snugly, windows close tight, and walls stand straight. The key to all this is a square. Most provide a fixed 90-degree angle in various forms, and some can help copy or draw other angles.




  From DMSeeleysTools.com This Combination stainless steel Tri Square hand tool is in 1/16" and 1/8" graduations the square has a spirt level with scribe threaded in the unit. This deluxe hand tool Tri Square has brass thumb knurled screws and is made of cast metal stock and stainless steel. No plastic. Center head 18 degree protractor and precision milled faces. This Combination Square can be seen at www.DMSeeleysTools.com.

  The Combination Tri Square hand tool is not so exact as to be a hundred percent accurate most of the time, but a good Tri Square is very close. They usually come with a metal scribe inserted into the square head across from the ruler. The better Combination Tri Squares also have at least a center head, while others also are equipped with a protractor head for measuring angles. The one in the picture is from DMSeeleysTools.com. 


  The Combination Square was invented by Larry S. Starrett in 1878. One of the More expensive Tri Squares on the market still carries his name. There are many uses for the combination Tri Square Hand Tools in the woodshop and also by metal workers in a variety of layout and setup tasks as a needed Hand Tool.

Other Uses


  Your combination square is one of your most useful tools and can also be used to check angles, to determine the center point of a round object, and to measure different angles for precision cutting.

Once you know how to use a Combination Tri Square, you will wonder how you ever got by without it.


  So for the most part a combination square is a layout tool that wise construction professionals keep handy in their toolbox. The versatility of a combination square comes from the interchangeable heads you attach to the combination square blade. An important square head, the centering head, allows you to find the center of circles and squares. A centering head resembles a "V," with a locking thumb nut located near the point of the "V." The square blade rests in the center head, with one side of the square blade sitting on the center of the head.

The Combination Tri Square Hand Tools are good for laying out lines for ripping, crosscutting, mitering, and making notches. The head, with fences at 90 and 45 degrees, slides along the blade and locks, allowing you to transfer a distance accurately and hold it while you draw a line with a pencil. Cabinetmakers like the fixed Hand tool square for checking corners and edges, but for most carpentry and metal work tasks, a Combination Tri Square Hamd Tool is more versatile and available at DMSeeleysTools.com. For your at home hand tool needs.

HOW TO USE A ROCK TUMBLER

If you like to tumble rocks DMSeeleysTools.com has a nice Rotary Dual Drum Rock tumbler tool for cleaning and polishing small stones or hardware. The way the tumbler works is the rocks fall over and over and over, polishing rocks in much the same manner as the ocean has for millions of years. Be advised that your choice of rock size is limited by the small rotor power and that it may be difficult to get replacement parts like a broken belt from an over weighted tumbler. DMSeeleysTools.com usually has belts.
 
Tumblers are sized according to the weight of the load they can continuously bear. The most common cause of rotor failure and belt breakage is improper or over-loading of the barrel. . Double barrels can be used to polish lots of rocks or to ensure a really good polish (if you reserve one barrel for that purpose).
The rock tumbler is a ideal bench top hand tool to have on hand for descaling , deburring, and surface conditioning for smaller items. Use on semi precious stones, glass, metals, remove rust or polish jewelry what ever your needs require. Quiet low-speed tumblers are designed to run for days at a time, ensuring a smooth, lustrous finish. Some tumblers have Rubber barrels for quieter operation. The following is a good way to polish jewelry.
You can use a Small rotary tumbler and barrel.
Soap (not detergent). Ivory soap flakes are recommended.
Polished steel shot. You want enough to fill the barrel about halfway.
Procedure
Pour the shot into a clean barrel to about the halfway mark.
Add enough water to cover the shot plus about 3/4 inch.
Add a tablespoon of soap flakes.
Load the jewelry and/or components into the barrel. You want them to be able to tumble, so pack them loosely.
Seal the barrel and let the tumbler rotate for 6-8 hours.
When the pieces are sufficiently polished, remove them from the tumbler and rinse them well with water
Do you want rounded rocks, or more natural looking rocks?
If you really do not want a well rounded rock, you may want to look at a vibrating model instead of a rotary machine also found at DMSeeleysTools.com. We get consistently better results with our rotary models, but occasionally we find someone who finds a vibrating model suits their needs better. If you are just starting out we recommend starting with a rotary machine. They truly are easier to operate.
 
So why get a vibratory tumbler?" you ask. They have a very useful purpose. They don't change the shape of your stones. If you have stones that you have cut and ground to a specific shape and you want to polish a lot of them at once, then you can use a vibratory tumbler.
On the other hand, vibratory tumblers tend to be a bit more expensive than their rotary counterparts. However, if 'time is money' and you want to retain more of the shape and size of the original material, then a vibratory tumbler may be just what you need.
 
Make a balanced load that includes for large and small rocks. For a 2.5 lb bowl, sizes from 1/8" to 1" work well. A proper slurry is needed to get the best polish in the least time. If there is too little water, then the thickness of the mixture will prevent proper movement, thus slowing the polishing action. Too much water results in too thin of a slurry, which will result in a much longer time to achieve a polish. The grit may settle out of the mixture altogether. Never wash grit down the drain! Plastic pellets may be rinsed and reused, but you cannot reuse grit. Best to your work Denny at DMSeeleysTools.com
