I spotted this simple tip over at lifehacker: When drilling in drywall, stick a post-it underneath the drill, folded to catch all the dust. Then just throw away. Doesn’t get much simpler than that. Original post

Anyone need a clamp? Too bad, their all being used. If you try to make a point of always gluing your stock at the end of the day, you wont tie up the clamps during work hours. Of course if you’re only using a few clamps with a fast curing glue it doesn’t matter. The [...]

Hydrofoil Sailboats are one of the most impressive watersports out there!  There are not many sailboats that can go faster than the wind.   C-Class Catamarans are a very open class of Sailboat Racing with only a few limitations (same hull used on both sides, a width and length limitation)

One of the most important features of I ndustrial Interface is the ease with which a sourcing need can be passed around our network of suppliers and engineers.  This makes it easy for your design application to reach people with relevant experience who can help.  Why is this so important

Back in June Google sent us a $100 gift card for a credit with their Adwords service. We were extremely excited to get involved with Adsense, after all, it seems like 99% of the ads on the internet are from Google. So to be able to join in for free was very appealing. The sign [...]

We were hired by a sign company to make a couple of fir posts. We wanted a good piece of fir, so we hand picked it from our local supplier. We picked the piece with the least amount of cracks in it, and the tightest grain. Unfortunately we didn’t notice the staples in it until [...]

The idea behind Industrial Interface is pretty simple.

Right now, and I mean right this second… there are thousands of engineers and technical buyers searching for industrial products, components, materials, and services across hundreds of industries and thousands of product categories. The web traffic on industrial directories alone is on the order of 500,000 visits per day. These searches end in a page that links to hundreds of suppliers for a specific category ( 5,300 in adhesives on Thomasnet , 1,300 on Macrae’s Blue Book, and  1,100 results on Globalspec )

When industrial salespeople sign up for our site, they complete a detailed supplier profile including their products and services . Our system stores all this information in a database, and we use it to match engineering projects to the right suppliers. To show this we built some quick links to basic search pages that list this information in an easy to read way.
