Metalmaster® snips are advanced metal cutting tools originally developed for cutting extremely tough alloys used in the aircraft industry. Wiss® Metalmaster® snips are widely used by (HVAC) professional metal workers in gutter and flashing work, fabrication of heating and cooling ducts and for siding installation. Wiss® Metalmaster® snips are popular among homeowners for many projects found around the home. Maintenance specialists and industrial workers in the appliance, aircraft, automotive, electrical, and construction industries know the value of Wiss snips. Wiss® Metalmaster® snips offer superior cutting performance required of conventional snips to handle acute angles, complex patterns and circular shapes in galvenized steel up to 18 gauge (.049"). The M5R is recommended for 16 gauge (.065"). The jaws of Wiss® Metalmaster® snips are made of durable and wear-resistant special molybdenum steel. This provides the extra service demanded by the compound lever action and withstands the severe strain of cutting heavy stock or tight curves. Wiss® also offers a comprehensive range of tinner’s snips in various sizes. These are available in right, left, or straight cut, depending on the pattern. Made from drop-forged steel, each tool features polished jaws for smooth action, cleaner cutting, and grips for increased comfort and performance.

  • IDENTIFICATION and GENOTYPING Tail Snip, Ear Punch, and Toe Clip
    DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS Research Service Policy Memorandum 19-55 South Texas Veterans Health Care System San Antonio, Texas 78229 March 11, 2019 IDENTIFICATION AND GENOTYPING Tail Snip, Ear Punch, and Toe Clip 1. PURPOSE: Proper identification of research animals is an essential component of research design. It allows for easy tracking of animal throughout a research project and assists animal care staff in providing appropriate care to individual animals. 2. POLICY: a. Procedures described within this standard operating procedure provide guidance on the various methods of identifying and genotyping individual or groups of mice and rats on VA IACUC-approved research protocols. 3. PROCEDURES: a. CAGE CARDS - Cage card information includes: species, strain or stock, source of animal, gender, names and contact numbers of responsible investigators, date of birth/arrival and protocol number. Cage card can be used as the only method of identification for animals on protocols where individual identification is not necessary. b. TEMPORARY MARKINGS - Use an indelible marker to write numbers, bars, or other distinguishable markings on the tail or the ears. Temporary marking can be used for short-term individual identification; this marking may last up to 3-4 days. c. EAR TAGS - Mice should be ear tagged at weaning age or older. Use tags that are about 5 mm long for mice. Rinse tag in 70% alcohol before use to help prevent ear infection. Position the tag in the applicator so that the end with the hole is positioned over the notched area of the applier; the pointed end should be opposite the hole.

  • Upholstery Fabric in a Nutshell By: Shelly Miller Leer
    Upholstery Fabric in a Nutshell by: Shelly Miller Leer Teaching you everything you need to know about upholstery fabric is a class in itself. I won’t get into technical textile information and the double rub discussion, but hopefully this will cover enough material (haha! Get it?) so that you’ll feel comfortable shopping for your stunning fabrics. Remember, this is in a nutshell. Upholstery fabric is generally 54”-55” wide and comes on a big cardboard round bolt, unlike apparel fabric which is on flat cardboard. Also, apparel and quilting fabrics are usually 44”-45” wide. Many upholstery weight fabrics are a plain or flat weave cotton with sometimes vibrant and fun prints screen-printed on top. What this means is that the design is just on the surface, it’s not woven into the fabric as a design or texture. Screen-printed fabrics are fine for our first project, however they are a bit stiff and they do tend to fray on cut edges. They are reasonable in price and can add very interesting patterns into a room. If you love it—go for it!! When you’re trying to upholster more contoured furniture, these fabrics can be a nightmare to work with. Fabric clerks will sometimes misinform you and say that certain (obvious) drapery weight fabrics are upholstery fabrics. Well, they are 54” wide and come on the big cardboard roll. But they can be too lightweight and too delicate for upholstery. Remember, the fabric you staple onto your chair seat or back, remove staples and readjust, should not snag or pull or rip.

  • Stabile Research Building Training Presentation
    Tail Snips, Tattoos and Identification Procedures - Training Presentation University of South Florida (July 2005) Course Objectives This presentation will outline common methods used to obtain tissues for DNA/RNA sampling, as well as prevalent identification methods. Tissues commonly used for assessment of DNA and RNA in mice are the tail and ear. Simple identification methods include ear punching, ear notching, placement of ear tags, and tattooing of the tail or foot pad. (NOTE: Any tissue collection over the age of 21 days and/or over 5cm requires anesthesia; use of local anesthetic agents is suggested for animals under 21 days of age). Ear Punches/Notches In order to establish which is the right or left of the animal - position it so that the belly is down and the head is facing away from the you. Restrain, as appropriate, to facilitate performing the punch or notch. Ear Punches/Notches A single hole or notch may be made using an ear punch tool. Notches are accomplished by positioning the instrument at the edge of the ear, resulting in a hole that is only partially surrounded by tissue. Notches may also be made by removing a small wedge shaped piece(s) of tissue with small scissors Ear Punches Tissues removed during this process are generally ample Ear Notches enough to allow for genetic testing, especially when PCR is utilized. Sterile instruments and tubes are used to obtain and manipulate the tissue after collection, and should be sterilized between animals. Multiple punches may be made to collect enough tissue for analysis – each punch is approximately 0.5mm in diameter.

C'O~TAI~ OVER 120,000 SQUA:RE FEET OF FLOOR SPACE 1848 a dog-power treadmill was used Quality Will Tell In 1848 Jacob Wiss, a Swiss instrument maker, opened a modest shop in Bank Street, Newark, N.J. He began to forge out instruments and a few pair of shears-a trade he had learned thoroughly in t:urope. He worked slowly and with infinite care, and presently people began to say Wiss Shears were the best they had ever used. There was good reason for this approbation, for Wiss Shears were so well made that, after more than 50 years of service, some of the first pairs ever produced are still in existence. Slowly the Wiss enterprise grew; and in 1887 a small part of the present factory was built. It was devoted exclusively to the manufacture of fine shears and scissors, and it soon was crowded to capacity. To-day the factories of J. Wiss & Sons Company are the largest of their kind in the world-and the reason for their prodigious growth is a firm adher­ ence to the old policy of Jacob Wiss to produce nothing but goods of the highest quality. 5 Showing the WISS Shear Blade in various stages of development Wiss F orging Depa rtment where t he frames of Wiss Sliears are forged under powerful drop-hammers How Wiss Shears Are Made 0 the average man or woman one shear is very much like another.
