Here's how to install a new internal drive as extra storage or as a new boot drive. Here, we installed Seagate's Barracuda 7200.10, a $124, 320GB Serial ATA (SATA) drive, inside a Dell Dimension 8400 running Windows XP Home Edition.
The tamping rod is a round, straight steel rod used with concrete cylinder molds, slump cones, and unit weight tests. Measures 5/8 diameter by 24 length. Both ends are rounded to a hemispherical tip. The tamping rod is plated for rust resistance and has a 6 scale in 1/4 increments engraved on end of the rod for measuring the slump. The Cat# TR375 is a 3/8 diameter by 12 length, rounded hemispherical tips, less scale.
The truss rod is part of a guitar or other fretted, stringed-instruments that stabilizes the lengthwise forward curvature (also called relief), of the neck. Usually it is a steel bar or rod that runs inside the neck, beneath the fingerboard.sually, the truss rod of a brand-new instrument is adjusted by the manufacturer before sale. Normally, turning the truss rod's adjustment bolt clockwise tightens it, counteracting the tension of the strings and straightening the neck or creating a backward bow.
