![]() ![]() I also recommend the proper king pin bushing reamer. If you need to rebuild the king pins you will definitely need a hydraulic press to do the job properly. You will be much happier with the results. If you can afford it, go with German linkpins and bushings. The new pins just slide into the new bushings. I can't remember for sure but I seem to recall that the bushes can be removed and installed fairly easily and by hand (maybe with a bench vice) and sometimes with the links installed on the car.However, I usually remove the whole assembly for thorough cleaning, inspection and lubing.

If you don't have what it takes to do it your self, then buy the good pieces and take your spindles to a good machine shop. Use the good German stuff, stay away from the Brazillian and Mexican crap. All you need to be aware of is to get the grease holes lined up if the bushings don't have the grease passage on the outside. If you have a press, the reamer and the ability to make the pieces you need to press the bushings out, you can do it yourself.

![]() It’s good to step outside your comfort zone and try drawing as many subjects, using different drawing styles, as possible. When a rule doesn’t serve you anymore, start to break it.” “Picking a colour that I love, then two more that look nice with it really improved my colour sense. ![]() This will help you figure out how colours work together and won’t distract you with all the possibilities out there. But it’s important to nail the fundamentals first and master a skill first, before moving onto something more complicated.įor instance, as you fill your sketchbook and are experimenting with colours, start with a limited colour palette. When you’re learning the basics, it can be tempting to skip to the more advanced stuff. To find a huge collection of imagery, search Adobe Stock for inspiration you can use for your next sketch. The more you learn about a subject, the better.” It’ll give you something to mimic and help you better understand how to draw the outlines and small details of your subject. When you’re just starting out, keep a picture of what you’re drawing in front of you. To get this part right, imagine how the figure would look in 3D and from every angle – like it would in real life. You can then smooth these edges out later on, to create a more realistic final image. To create that depth, break down whatever you’re drawing into: “You’re not just drawing what you see in front of you. You might find that pointillism is your thing, cartoons are your forte, or line drawings might suit your skills.īasic shapes are an essential starting point when drawing any object, especially when turning a 3D object into a 2D drawing. Using these rules, you can start to refine your own style over time.
The size of a boa constrictor depends on its subspecies. Once the animal is dead, the boa ingests its prey whole, taking six days to digest its entire meal.īecause of this fast process, boas can consume copious amounts of food, allowing them to grow much larger than most species of snakes. They constrict their prey using powerful muscles, which stops the blood flow to vital organs. Why Are Boas So Big?īoa constrictors are modestly-sized compared to the enormous Burmese python or reticulated python.īoas have healthy appetites, and their size and weight are dependent on where they live and the availability of food. The largest dwarf boa to be recorded was close to 30 inches long. How Big Can a Dwarf Boa Get?ĭwarf boas are one of the smaller boa subspecies, again with females being longer than males, on average. Here’s some information on the differences between the red-tailed boa and boa constrictor imperator. They weigh around 13 pounds, with females again being larger than males. On average, red-tailed boas grow up to the following lengths: Female Red-Tailed Boa ConstrictorĪlso known as the common boa or common northern boa, boa constrictor imperators are often smaller than red-tailed boas. There are numerous boa constrictor subspecies, with the red-tailed boa constrictor and boa constrictor imperator being the most common. ![]() Average Boa Constrictor Weightįemale boas are heavier than male boas: Male Boa Weight This is due to the size of the hemipenes, which are used to prevent the hemipenis from coming free from the females’ cloaca. The tail of the male boa is larger, based on its shorter size. This is due to sexual dimorphism, where different sexes have different physical characteristics that go beyond just having different sexual organs. ![]() The average length of a male boa is 5-7 feet. Male Boa Constrictorsįemale boas are almost always larger than male boas. A boa can also weigh up to 60 pounds.Īlthough your boa has matured at this point, it can still continue to grow, sometimes reaching a length of 10-13 feet, and weighing up to 80 pounds. Boa Size at 3 yearsĪ boa is likely to be close to maturity by the end of its third year, growing to an average length of 6-8 feet, depending on its sex. At this stage, the boa will need to feed every 10 to 14 days. It’ll feed on small mammals, such as small rats and adult mice, or other animals, such as birds and lizards. Within seven months, depending on the sub-species, a baby boa can reach 3 feet or more, and weigh up to 30 pounds. “My wife is married to a meteorologist, and she will straight up question me if her favorite weather app says something different than my forecast,” Lanza told me. No people on the planet have a more tortured and conflicted relationship with weather apps than those who interpret forecasting models for a living. “But it’s that 20 percent where people get burned that’s a problem.” “Eighty percent of the year, a weather app is going to work fine,” Matt Lanza, a forecaster who runs Houston’s Space City Weather, told me. But when it comes to how people feel about weather apps, these edge cases-which usually take place during severe weather events-are what stick in a person’s mind. On an average day, you’re probably going to see a similar forecast from app to app and on television. Traditional meteorologists interpret these models based on their training as well as their gut instinct and past regional weather patterns, and different weather apps and services tend to use their own secret sauce of algorithms to divine their predictions. But all of these forecasts are working off of similar data, which are pulled from places such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. ![]() There are tens of thousands of them, from the simply designed Apple Weather to the expensive, complex, data-rich Windy.App. Nearly two decades into the smartphone era-when anyone can theoretically harness the power of government weather data and dissect dozens of complex, real-time charts and models-we are still getting caught in the rain. But the apps have produced a new level of frustration, at least judging by hundreds of cranky tweets over the past decade. People love to complain about weather forecasts, dating back to when local-news meteorologists were the primary source for those planning their morning commutes. Dozens of times, the Apple Weather app has lulled me into a false sense of security, leaving me wet and betrayed after a run, bike ride, or round of golf. The Apple app, although not rated by ForecastAdvisor, has a reputation for off-the-mark forecasts and has been consistently criticized for presenting faulty radar screens, mixing up precipitation totals, or, as it did last week, breaking altogether. ![]() The Weather Channel’s app, by comparison, comes in at 83 percent. The cult favorite Dark Sky, for example, which shut down earlier this year and was rolled into the Apple Weather app, accurately predicted the high temperature in my zip code only 39 percent of the time, according to ForecastAdvisor, which evaluates online weather providers. At best, they perform about as well as meteorologists, but some of the most popular ones fare much worse. Weather forecasts are always a game of prediction and probabilities, but these apps seem to fail more often than they should. But there is one specific corner where technological advances haven’t kept up: weather apps. My life is a gluttonous smorgasbord of information, and I am on the all-you-can-eat plan. ![]() With three swipes, I can summon almost everyone listed in my phone and see their confused faces via an impromptu video chat. Today, I can ask a chatbot to render The Canterbury Tales as if written by Taylor Swift or to help me write a factually inaccurate autobiography. ![]() Technologically speaking, we live in a time of plenty. Additionally, Freshdesk offers Canned Responses or automated messages crafted for customers based on previous replies to similar customer queries. This SaaS application also integrates with the Zoho CRM software so agents can view customer details inside every ticket.

Here’s how these customer support software approach ticket management: A. Efficient ticket management can help you streamline business processes and reduce customer wait times.

So which customer support software should you opt for? Although these two tools share similarities like omnichannel ticketing, live chat support, and call center functionality, they also have significant differences. The dashboard is a bit useless in my opinion for Freshdesk as helpdesk cannot use the dashboard to monitor and triage new incoming tickets.Freshdesk has a user-friendly and intuitive interface, whereas Zendesk is designed to handle complex enterprise requirements. Freshdesk does have a better mobile app and "apps" to extend the functionality of Freshdesk. Jitbit has more functionality that comes included while Freshdesk you have to purchase. I think if the total cost was closer, it'd be a tough choice and I may choose Jitbit. Jitbit is much cleaner and simpler though they don't put extra cost functions all over their interface hoping to get more money out of you. $15 per agent Freshdesk should do the majority of what I need versus Freshdesk $250+$30 any agent over 9 total cost being $5,400 annually vs. ![]() ![]() Between Jitbit and Freshdesk, I think I'll have to go with Freshdesk. Update: I haven't investigated OSTicket much more in-depth as I felt quickly Freshdesk and Jitbit beat it out. Between Jitbit, Freshdesk, and OSTicket, which one is the best and why? Shit talking about the competition is good too. We need a somewhat simple cloud based helpdesk ticketing system. ![]() Unlike a sleep mask and ear plugs, it's tough to objectively say this body lotion improved my sleep. It's scented with (mostly) lavender, which small studies suggest has anti-anxiety powers - just the sort of thing you want to calm yourself down before bed. I was put onto Lush's Sleepy body lotion by a friend who deemed it "the good s-t". The second night I wore Bose's earbuds, I woke up in the middle of the night and thought they'd fallen out - then realised the soothing sound of rainfall wasn't actually coming from outside.īose noise-masking sleepbuds - $375.95 Sleep potion (Supplied) It's true that a white noise app does a similar job (at a fraction of the cost), but there's something to be said for having those noises generated right in your ears. The sleepbuds do a great job of cancelling out that audio pollution. That inner-city neighbourhood I live in is also very noisy (a big f-k you to the drunk folks who stroll out of the restaurant under my apartment building late every night, and the garbage collectors who empty out bins of glassware early every morning). They buds don't play music, but a selection of low-key ambient sounds - including rainfall, rushing river, and airplane drone. These are basically just wireless headphones that fit very snugly in your ears (snug enough so they don't slip out while you sleep), and sync up to the Bose Sleep app on your phone. ![]() ![]() Or you could upgrade to Bose's nose-masking sleepbuds, the Iron Man of ear plugs. You could just pick up a set of ear plugs at your local pharmacy for a couple of dollars (a former flatmate was so dependent on these to sleep that he ordered them in bulk from Amazon). Manta Sleep Mask - $42, plus shipping Ear plugs (Supplied) ![]() Once the pizza is assembled, it can be baked for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted. The dough should be rolled out onto the baking sheet, and then the toppings can be added. When cooking a pizza on a cookie sheet, it is important to preheat the oven to the desired temperature and to use a baking sheet that has been lightly coated with cooking spray or olive oil. How Do You Cook A Pizza On A Cookie Sheet? The crispy cookies you get here are free of mess and stick. Line the pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil if you want it to be easily lit. A unique baking method allows for even baking and prevents dough from sinking through holes. If you want to demonstrate your baking abilities, you can bake cookies on a pizza pan with holes. Increase the oven temperature to 510F (or up to 550F if possible) and bake your pizza for another 5 to 10 minutes, checking to see if it’s evenly brown but not burnt as you should. If you only have a light-colored baking sheet, you can use it to make pizza. Can I Cook Pizza Directly On A Cookie Sheet? This also allows you to prepare it more easily because you will be able to increase the quantity of dough in your finished product. As a result, even though oil is an important ingredient in a delicious pizza, it has no effect on the finished product. The pizza should be ready after 15 minutes the crust should be golden brown and the cheese bubbling.įurthermore, it adds a pleasing flavor to it. Layer a layer of shredded mozzarella cheese over the sauce. Place the pizza sauce over the dough’s surface. If the dough is not cooked before baking, it will have a crispier crust. If you’re a pizza-making newbie, don’t use a stone and still bake a pizza on a cookie sheet. Most people agree that the best method is to use a pizza stone. When baked on cookie sheets, pizza is slightly crisp, with a thicker crust, similar to pizzas prepared in pizza restaurants. There is no right or wrong answer, so it’s up to the baker to decide whether or not to grease the cookie sheet. Some people find that greasing the sheet helps to prevent the crust from sticking, while others find that it doesn’t make a difference. Baking time may vary depending on how thick/thin you make the crust.Whether or not to grease a cookie sheet when baking a pizza crust is a matter of personal preference. Use enough dough so crust reaches the edges of the pan. If using store-bought dough, disregard homemade dough instructions and evenly spread premade dough on a greased Half Sheet. *NOTE: Premade dough can also be used for this recipe. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until crust has started to brown along the edges and cheese has melted. ![]() Then evenly arrange tomatoes, sprinkle with oregano and lastly, drizzle with homemade pesto. Build pizza by first spreading mozzarella across pizza crust. Place dough on a greased Baker’s Half Sheet and spread completely to the edges of the pan. When dough is ready, gently knead dough on a floured surface. Pulse all ingredients in a food processor until desired consistency is achieved. While dough is rising, make homemade pesto. Cover with plastic wrap and leave in a warm area until doubled in size, about an hour. In another bowl, pour a small amount of olive oil and add ball of dough. Whisk sugar, olive oil and salt into yeast mixture and add flour. Pour 1 1/2 cups warm water in bowl and sprinkle yeast onto surface. ![]() ![]() Templates can be created with placeholders, which are easily replaced by users with drag and drop simplicity by providing structure and pre-defined elements for a video project, templates can easily be shared with colleagues as a plug and play option for those new to video creation.Ĭamtasia can create and export template packages to share with teams or others creating similar content.
