i'm told mending is back in fashion!

We cannot live only for ourselves.

A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among those fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.

~ Herman Melville

Julian and his best friend Mathilde spent the morning making 'very hungry caterpillars' in the yard.

 

We made the pom pom heads with leftover yarn, made pipe cleaner antennae, and then used a blunt tipped tapestry needle to 'thread' lots and lots of multicolour foam disks that the grown-ups cut out of craft foam. When the worms were long enough, we snipped the yarn and taped the end to the inside of the last disk and taped 2 chopstick halves at the beginning and the end of our worm to use it as a puppet.

 

It was a total success even for our budding crafters who are 2 and half years old. The idea is from the book: "making stuff for kids."

Today I spent some time putting a bit of work towards an art piece I have been chipping away at for well over a year. It's one of those where I really wasn't certain of the end. I couldn't see it complete. I just knew I had to start it because it kept whispering to me. I let go and just started, allowing it to go wherever it went. I still don't have a vision of the exact finished piece, but recently I have started polishing the mirror again, which always makes things a bit more in focus. This is a pile of threads that I pulled from some pieces of fabric.

string the flaxen weft

with love on your fingertips

to create a new

fabric for this world

 

blanketing the hearts

that hold the heavy loads

strength in the warp

shoulders the burden

 

in the creating

is also the destruction

the pulling of threads

to unleash a new edge

 

a birth of time

folding over the weave

never losing

my line to you

Our morning with Masha.

Thread Inspection

 

The Non-Destructive Test (NDT) allows to rapidly check whether machining was performed without changing the physical state of the part.

 

The tests known as "thread check" allow verifying whether threading was performed, and its quality.

 

The technology of eddy currents offers a test speed higher than any other technology and so it allows carrying out the checks automatically on 100% of the production.

 

Turnkey applications are supplied for the Non-Destructive checks and the integrated dimensional + ND checks only.

 

Probes and electronic units can be supplied as components to obtain applications under the customer’s care.

 

Marposs is available to examine the feasibility of the check by making tests on parts supplied by the customer.

any of a group of large, common, solitary (nonsocial) wasps in the family Sphecidae (order Hymenoptera) that are named for the stalklike anterior (front) end of the abdomen. Thread-waisted wasps are typically more than 2.5 cm (about 1 inch) long and are parasitic on insects and spiders. The host is often numbed by malaxation, a pinching or crushing of the neck by the wasp’s pincerlike jaws, and paralyzed by the wasp’s sting. The wasp places the host’s body in a mud cell and lays an egg on it. Upon hatching, the larva consumes the host.

 

Members of the tribe Sphecini are often black with orange or yellow markings on the abdomen. They nest in burrows and provision their cells with caterpillars, which are eaten by the wasp larva. The mud daubers (tribe Sceliphronini) are commonly black with yellow spots and yellow legs, although some are metallic blue. They usually build several mud cells placed together in the corners of eaves or ceilings. The cells are provisioned with paralyzed spiders. Wasps of the tribe Podiini provision their cells with cockroaches, and members of the tribe Chlorionini nest in the ground and provide grasshoppers and crickets for their larvae.
