Designed and built in-house by our staff of engineers, this robotic “Drum Machine,” called the Gluing Gantry, ensures that every Evans head has a true collar. A series of vacuum fixtures holds the film in place for each head while the robotic gluing arm circles above the hoop and dispenses epoxy. The result is a drumhead that tunes both easily and consistently. At Evans, we do it right the first time. And every time.

And experience tells us that there are no shortcuts when it comes to making a stick. There is, however a very good short- cut when choosing one. The journey from wooden dowel to finished drumstick is a tough one. Each stick makes its way through the hands of several craftsmen before it leaves us. And at every test, there’s always the chance of getting turned into firewood. But it does get easier when our sticks reach the store.

  • Wind Powering America FY06 Activities Summary
    Wind Powering America FY06 Activities Summary Dear Wind Powering America Colleague, We are pleased to present the Wind Powering America FY06 Activities Summary, which reflects the accomplishments of our state wind working groups, our programs at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and our partner organizations. The national WPA team remains a leading force for moving wind energy forward in the United States. At the beginning of FY07 (October 2006), there were 11,078 megawatts (MW) of wind power installed across the United States, with an additional 3,000 MW projected in both 2007 and 2008. When our partnership was launched in 2000, there were 2,500 MW of installed wind capacity in the United States. In 1999, only four states had more than 100 MW of installed wind capacity. Sixteen states now have more than 100 MW installed. We anticipate five to six additional states will join the 100-MW club in 2007, and by the end of the decade, more than 30 states will have passed the 100-MW milestone. WPA celebrates the 100-MW milestones because the first 100 megawatts are always the hardest and lead to significant experience, recognition of the wind energy’s benefits, and expansion of the vision of a more economically and environmentally secure and sustainable future. WPA continues to work with its national, regional, and state partners to communicate the opportunities and benefits of wind energy to a diverse set of stakeholders. WPA now has 29 state wind working groups (welcoming New Jersey, Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri in 2006) that form strategic alliances to communicate wind’s benefits to the state stakeholders.

A desaiption of those field observations is given. Vertical crag sections of the wind field on a line per- pendicular to the coast, extending 00 km inland from data obtained at three pibal stations, are presentedand discussed.Time sections of the wind field and temperature fields at the coast are discussed.Mesoscale fea- tures are presentedand related to prevailing synoptic-scale changesoccurring aloft during the observational period. The seabreeze event on 23 August exhibited the following important characteristics: 1) a sea breezefront, distinguishable in the zonal wind field, which penetrated more than 00 km inland; 2) a distinct wind maxi- mum which followed the front inland; 3) the surface onshore ftow at the coast which took place below the main inversion, deepeningthe marine layer at the onset; and 4) a return ftow above the inversion which ap- peared in quasi-periodic surgesin responseto surgesin the sea breezeftow. 1.
