assembly methods

[pescadoman]

I do believe that once you create the hydraulic pressure, the pressure is still there after the epoxy sets...........

but that is just me.......... and if you can't disprove it through scientific methods.... well just let it be...........

Hydraulic, by definition, is fluid. Once a fluid becomes a solid it cannot, by definition apply hydraulic pressure.

1)Take your car and raise it a foot off the ground with a hydraulic jack
2)Solidify liquid inside
3)If you drilled a hole into the case of the ram, would it release 800lbs of pressure at you? Considering there is very little to no air in a properly functioning ram and the supporting material can no longer apply pressure, the answer is no. Since the material in the ram is no longer liquid, the car would not drop either.
Can you raise or lower the jack now?

Solids can expand and contract depending on temperature but, with wood being as malleable as it is, I don't see the minimum contraction and expansion of metal or remaining moisture to be much of a factor with the temps we are talking about.

I just made all this up and hopefully no one will know the difference....

[...] Thank you for wanting my valued opinion but unlike you, I don't have the time nor the inclination to participate in something when you're involved.

Now that right there is some funny, funny stuff. You have the time (and "inclination" ) to repeatedly insult and denigrate me, but NOT the time to answer a simple question. Your last two posts contain approximately 265+ words and 175+ words (respectively), yet you lack sufficient time to give a one-word answer to this very simple question:

Do you agree with Rick's claim of an A-joint retaining "hydraulic potential" after the epoxy has cured or not? A simple "yes" or a simple "no" would suffice. No insults, condescension, or criminal acts required on your part - so you might even find it refreshing for a change.

Multi-paragraph insults you have time and inclination for, but not for a simple one-word answer to a very simple question - which pretty much says all anyone really needs to know about you.

Like I said, funny funny stuff.

3) ......the top guys HATE the internet.

Randy,

You're missing the most important reason. Unlike some, the real top guys are too busy in their business, don't have the time and are too smart to get involved in pissing contests nor do they have to prove they're always correct.

Hydraulic pressure requires the component to still be liquid. The pressure you apply to one end of the hydraulic system will be transferred to the other end. That's what hydraulics are all about, using a liquid to work by applying pressure to it and then plumbing it out to where you want to do the work.

Once the liquid becomes a solid, then it can no longer transfer any pressure. It has to be able to move to transfer the pressure, and a solid can't move.

The pressure that Rick is really talking about is an air or pneumatic pressure. Air pressure could get trapped there and would still be there if it was trapped.

I don't believe a cue will trap pressure. It's just too porous and it won't hold air pressure.

I also believe that the amount of pressure would so small that it couldn't possibly cause the issues described. Not to mention that the cargo hold of the plane is actually pressurized after all. Completely eliminating the entire scenario anyway.

This whole thing is completely stupid. But I just can't let the unsuspecting reader not get the whole picture so he can choose which way he thinks is right.

Very well explained Royce....I just don't understand how you did that without all the large words used by others?

That's simple! Royce doesn't feel the need to prove he's smarter and superior to all of us.

I cannot believe you sat there and the best you could come up with was just sitting there counting the exact amount of words in my posts. I can see you sitting there, 1, 2, 3 and so on.

ROFLMAO

You have entirely way too much time on your hands.

And, they say that the sign of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. Well, you’ve sat there and have asked for my valued opinion at least 4 times to which you’ve received no reply from me. Hmmmmmmmm.

:lol: Paste text into Microsoft Word and it will tell you how many words are in the text on the status bar .... I quoted 95 words above and counted none :lol: Computers are amazing ! :lol:

I guess you must not be very smart, Joe, if you think I (or anyone else) has to actually "count" words in a digital document. One mouse click on your post and my computer simply tells me the properties of your post, including - wait for it... the "word count". Geez, it's like magic, huh Joe?

But I guess your confusion just goes to show that no matter how advanced computers become, they'll never be TRULY "idiot-proof".

Yeah, I know that but it's funnier the way I wrote it.

Either way, it's funny. Some people need to get a life. I hear eBay sells them too. :grin:

The point was you took the time and that’s all you could come up with. It was written to be funny but like everything else, you lack a sense of humor.

Well, Joe, I don't really know you well enough to tell when you're trying to be funny or when you're simply being stupid. Maybe in person I would be able to tell by your expression, but on-line (in photos) it often seems like you kind of have a vacant stare that doesn't really suggest much of a sense of humor. Of course the majority of the photos I've seen of you are police mugshots, so maybe it was just the moment you were in at the time you were being booked...

In any event, I guess I simply assumed you really didn't know how easy it is to determine the basic properties of most digital documents so I just wanted to help you out in any way I could. It seemed like the right thing to do.

Lol - you're a funny guy. You're still obsessed with Rick and proving you're smarter and better than everyone else. And you still haven't answered Hightower's question to you which proves your obsession with Rick and being correct all the time.

The point was you took the time and that’s all you could come up with other than your obsession with my photo's. Are you also gay? I mean, I don't know anyone else who admits spending time looking up internet photo's of me. Kind of creepy.

Between counting words, looking at internet photo's of men and "debating" Rick when is it that you actually make cues?
