You want to know all about photo encaustic. You love photography and want to put more of yourself into your work. You want to have fun exploring your images while being more hands-on. I love that too. That is what drew me to photo encaustic. That and the way the light pulls me into the image.
I would like to know why 118 degrees made the standard tip angle for a drill bit.Or for that matter, 135 degrees? 1. Is there anything called standard tip angle? 2. What factors determine the choice of the tip angle? P.S: I posted the same question in Aerospace forum : http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=347077
Drill Bit Size Chart to 1 inch Diameter. Drill sizes to 1 diameter. When using a drill bit for a feeler gauge, please remember that many drill bits are actually undersize at the shank end of the drill bit so please use the above bit sizes with a grain of salt! Also note that to correct for a broad feeler gauge or a loose-fitting drill bit: ROC = (D 2-W 2) / 8T Where: W = the width of the feeler gauge, or if the drill bit can be moved back and forth under the straight edge by the total amount W D = mirror diameter, T = gauge thickness or bit diameter.
