Tornado Science Fair Projects

Creating a tornado science fair project has been quite popular at science fairs. Of course, it isn't possible to create a life-sized tornado for obvious reasons! However, miniaturized versions may be created using simple models like the one about to be demonstrated. It is to be remembered that proportions matter a lot, while creating the models. Therefore, these exact proportions need to be followed. The following is possibly the simplest tornado science fair project that can be made with daily household materials. This experiment demonstrates the formation of the eye of the tornado - the central zone of calmness known as the vortex - within ordinary bottles.

Drill Power Tools

The tornado science fair project requires simple ingredients:
- Two large bottles - the larger the better. Soft drink bottles made of plastic are recommended.
- Water colored using food coloring. The lighter the color is, better the demonstration will be. Glitter dust or confetti result in a dazzling display.
- A drill.
- Duct tape and silicon caulking.
- A steadily spinning surface, an old record player if possible.

Drill Power Tools

The apparatus can be set up quite easily. The first step of tornado science fair project is to make half-inch wide holes at the center of the caps. These caps may then be joined together using the silicon caulking, keeping the holes connected. The bottles may be filled with the colored water now. The second step of the tornado science fair project is to attach each end of this double cap to each bottle. Finally, the two caps may be firmly fastened using the duct tape. The entire apparatus takes a shape and form similar to that of an hourglass.

Now, the entire apparatus of the tornado science fair project may be placed upside down, the bottle with the water being at the top, on the spinning surface. It will be observed that as the water slowly drains out to the lower bottle, a vortex is formed in the midst of the spinning water. This vortex is similar to the structure of the vortex formed inside a tornado.

Precautions to be taken during this tornado science fair project are few, but important. The joints must be made perfectly airtight, so that there is no leakage of water and air bubbles don't enter the bottles. Moreover, the spinning surface must have a steady motion. Otherwise, the entire rhythm of the tornado would be disrupted. The steps are few; however, are important in a tornado science fair project.

The project, as it stands, is a very simple, elegant, and elementary science fair project that judges see all of the time. What you must do in order to stand out is to make this project a little bit different than everyone else's science fair project. The fact is, with a project like this, you won't get a really stunning A+ grade simply because this project didn't involve too much individual thinking. However, by taking this model as a start and exploring some related concept or by looking at some specific aspect of the model, you can really earn a fantastic grade, and maybe even win the science fair with this simple tornado science fair project.

Makita BTP140 Review - 4 Tools in 1 - But is it Worth the Price?

One of the most innovative tools to come out for some time is the Makita BTP140. Although compact in size, this thing packs 4 tools in 1 so you have less to carry around the job site. This tool has 4 modes: impact, hammer drill, driver, and regular drill so it can serve almost any function you need.

Drill Power Tools

The Makita BTP140 is equipped with a 4-pole motor that delivers up to 1,240 in. lbs. of max torque. For the small size that this drill is, that's a ton of power. You're also getting 16 different clutch settings and 2 separate speed settings (0-700 RPM and 0-2,300 RPM)

Drill Power Tools

When you plan on drilling into masonry and concrete, you will be getting a powerful 0-27,600 BPM (blows per minute). When you need to do a simple fastening task, you can just switch to the impact mode which delivers 0-3,200 impacts per minute.

As with almost all the new Makita tools, the Makita BTP140 features the innovative new LXT Lithium-Ion technology. These 18-Volt batteries are lighter, run longer, and charge quicker than the traditional batteries you see in a lot of other drills. There is also a built-in shock absorber to protect the battery from damage.

The Optimum Charger allows a memory chip in the battery to communicate with a CPU chip in the charger to deliver the most efficient charge possible and make the batteries last longer. On average, these new Li-Ion batteries last 2.5 times longer than a standard battery.

You would think that because of the sheer power and features the Makita BTP140 provdes, it would be a bulky drill. Surprisingly though, it's very compact and weighs just 3.9 pounds and is only 7-3/8 inches in length. Comfort is very important while you're working and the ergonomic design of the BTP140 allow it to fit very nicely in your hand and reduce the chance of fatigue.

Two more really cool features of this drill are the built-in L.E.D. light and the phosphorescent bumper ring. The light helps you see in small, dark areas and the bumper ring glows in the dark so you don't have to worry about losing your drill because you can't see it.

As you can now see, the Makita BTP140 is really an awesome tool to have. It's 4 tools in 1 which means you don't have to carry as much around the job, it delivers tons of power but is still compact in size, and the Lithium-Ion battery technology is unsurpassed by any other drills on the market. I definitely recommend checking the BTP140 out.

Attaching Wood To Concrete

A very important tip is to use the right tool for each method. When you're dealing with concrete and masonry, you're obviously dealing with extremely hard material. Woodworking hammers are too light and steel drill bits too soft. The concrete is also brittle. Hard sharp chips are likely to fly out as you work on it, so always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes.

Drill Power Tools

Nails. Nailing wood directly to concrete is probably the simplest, quickest and cheapest method. Unfortunately, once driven, these nails may jar loose from a few hammer blows to the side of the board. So, they are better for temporary fastening.

Drill Power Tools

You'll usually find two types of special nails at the hardware store, cut nails and hardened concrete nails. Drive nails with a 2- to 4-lb. hammer. Actually, it's very hard to drive nails into cured (hardened) concrete, even with a 4-lb. hammer. They work best in concrete that's only cured for a few days.

Nails can be quite effective in mortar joints, however. Mortar is softer than either the concrete block or brick, and it holds nails fairly well. For best results, drive them right along the joint edge. And here's a professional tip: for improved holding power, run a bead of glue along the backside of your wood before nailing it up.

Predrilled Fasteners. There is a family of fasteners that can be driven into a predrilled hole. These not only fasten wood to concrete, but will fasten just about anything else to concrete as well.

They install easily, simply drill through the wood and into the concrete and drive the fastener.

Drilling the hole is the only difficult part. Use a carbide tip bit. Because these holes are relatively small, your standard 1/4-inch or 3/8 inch power drill can do an adequate job, although each hole may take several minutes to bore. A hammer drill, however, will drill your hole in a matter of seconds. A hammer drill is expensive, but they can be rented. If you have a lot of holes to drill, they'll save a lot of time.

It's a good idea to glue your wood to the concrete or masonry with this system as well, especially when using screws. Once screws are jarred loose, they may not retighten.

Expansion Fasteners. These fasteners are simple, effective and can carry a heavy load. They may be retightened should they be jarred loose.

Because they require a larger hole, you really need a hammer drill to bore the concrete. If you can't buy, borrow or rent one, try boring a 1/8 inch hole first with a carbide bit. Then use progressively larger carbide bits until you reach the proper size.

Buy these fasteners long enough to wedge into the concrete as deep as the wood is thick. Drill your hole an extra 1/4 inch deep, since the bolt draws back slightly when tightened.

Power Fasteners. These are extremely fast, powerful and dangerous. They are primarily professional tools which any untrained homeowner should steer clear of until they fully understanding the safety precautions. With power fasteners you can quickly nail into just about any concrete or masonry surface. Both the air and the power-actuated systems drive hardened nails through the wood and solidly into the concrete in one shot. Flying metal, wood or concrete are certain hazards, so eye protection is essential.

Glue. Over the past ten years construction adhesives have improved and become more specialized. You can securely glue just about anything to a wall now. Since glued wood must be held tightly in place until the glue sets, it's handy to use an adhesive with another fastening system for mutual reinforcement; the glue dampens the vibration and jarring that may weaken the fasteners, and the fasteners hold the wood tightly until the glue sets.

Proper preparation ensures a good glue bond. Be sure the wood and the concrete surfaces are clean and dry. Loose paint, surface chalking or moisture will cause the bond to release. When working with a very rough surface, apply a generous bead to bridge the wider gaps between the wood and concrete.

24v and 36v Cordless Drills

When most people think about cordless drills, they think about 18v or 14.4v drills. Those are the most widely made cordless tools and they will cover most tasks. But there's another class of cordless drivers that perform more demanding tasks. These would be 24 volt and 36 volt cordless drills. These higher voltage drills provide more torque and more run-time.

Drill Power Tools

A good 18 volt cordless driver will drill holes and drive screws into the toughest wood. There are even 18 volt hammer drills. You can make a few holes into cinder block and possibly even small holes into concrete. But if you want to drill larger holes into concrete or drill lots of masonry holes, then you're going to need something more. There's only so much power you can cram into an 18 volt battery. A 24 volt battery will allow both more energy storage and more power to flow at once. A 36 volt battery allows even more.

Drill Power Tools

For example, the Milwaukee V28 line, which is actually a 28 volt system, provides 600 inch pounds of torque. Hilti 36 volt drills provide even more. This isn't quite the same amount of torque you can get from a corded hammer drill, but it's close. It's enough to do almost any task a hammer drill will do. The Hilti products are very expensive, some over 00. But as with most things, you get what you pay for.

That means there are cheaper drills as well. For example, Black and Decker makes a 24v cordless drill. But a good quality 18 volt driver will perform better than a budget 24 volt drill. However, it will also cost more as well.

So if you're looking for more power and want to pick up a 24V or 36V cordless drill then make sure you check the specifications to make sure it actually has more battery capacity and torque. And also make sure you buy from a quality manufacturer.

Drill Battery Reconditioning

Nickel-Cadmium batteries, also known as NiCads, are commonly used in power tools such as a drill. As you continue to use these tools, the batteries go into a continuous cycle of charging and discharging. As a result, they can accumulate dendrite crystal build-up, which is commonly known as "memory." This build-up causes the gradual reduction of the charge that a battery can hold until one day, your battery just goes completely dead.

Drill Power Tools

That was the bad news. The good news is that there is a way for you to erase the memory and bring your battery back to life. Circuit drill battery reconditioning is a process that is easy enough for you to embark on as a DIY project. It can save you from buying an expensive new one for your board drill and give you the satisfaction of being able to rejuvenate your batteries and have it working as if it was brand-new. Here's how to recondition drill batteries:

Drill Power Tools

Locate the positive and negative ends of the battery and then run a test to make sure that the battery is fully discharged. If it still has a bit of power left, run the drill without obstruction until the battery is completely discharged. As soon as the battery is discharged, put on your protective gear and eyewear. Take the black clamp of a 12-volt charger and then secure it on your battery's negative end. Tap the positive end with the red clamp of the battery charger. Take note that this process may cause sparks to be emitted from the battery, which is why it is important for you to wear protective gear while working.

Hold both clamps in position for about three seconds before you release it. Be careful not to let the two clamps make contact with each other. Run the NiCad through a tester to determine if it has been restored to full charge. You may have to repeat the process a couple of times more in order for the battery to reach full charge. Be careful not to overcharge the battery, though, as this can cause it to catch fire, explode, or spray you with battery acid, which can be harmful to your skin. Circuit drill battery reconditioning is quite a hazardous process, and it is best done by someone who has experience in electrical work. If you are a first-timer, it may be best to take instruction from an expert before conducting the process on your own.

So, the next time a drill battery gives up on you, you don't have to give up on it. Before going out to look for a replacement battery, why don't you try reconditioning the old battery first? Everything has become so costly these days that it is always a good idea to get savings wherever and however you can. What's best is that reconditioning works not only on circuit drill batteries, but on any other NiCad or lead acid battery as well.
