Posted by admin in dwelling place on 12 25th, 2011SelfLube Wear Plates Are Still The Best Seller Amongst 7,000 Different Part Numbers
Coopersville, MI (PRWEB) October 27, 2011
For over 20 years, SelfLube has been manufacturing components for the mold and die industry. It all began when owner, Phil Allor purchased some used machinery and began making a product called a “self-lubricating wear plate”, hence the name SelfLube. A wear plate is a component that is used to guide and control linear motion where there are heavy forces involved, which is often the case in a large die or mold. The self-lubrication came from graphite, a solid lubricant, which is similar to the lead of a pencil.
Over the years that SelfLube has been in business, it has expanded its product line many times in order to meet the needs of its customers. It has gone from just making wear plates to making nearly 7,000 different part numbers. “Though its product line has greatly expanded, the product that started it all, is still being made and is popular as ever with our customers, ” explains owner Phil Allor.
The term “wear-plate” is somewhat generic. There are actually 10 different types, inch and metric, steel and bronze, with or without graphite. SelfLube makes them all. Its line includes the:
N Series
A Series
Grease Groove
SMC Lower Heel
NAAMS
JIS (B Series)
VDI
CAM Dwell
SESW and SESWT
SelfLube will be featuring this line at this year’s FabTech show, which will be held at the McCormick Place in Chicago, IL. The show is scheduled for November 14-17 and is North America’s largest metal forming event.
SelfLube is a US based manufacturer of precision mold and die components such as bushings, gibs, wear strips, parting line locks, lifter slides and related items – about 7,000 standard part numbers in all, many of which are self-lubricating. The company sells directly to build shops throughout North America and Canada, which results in both better pricing and better customer service. Its record for on time delivery is among the best in the industry.

Clocks Go Back, Criminals Come Out – 26% Increase in Burglary Between Halloween and Bonfire Night
Posted by admin in dwelling place on 11 19th, 2011Clocks Go Back, Criminals Come Out – 26% Increase in Burglary Between Halloween and Bonfire Night
(PRWEB) October 26, 2011
As British Summertime finally draws to a close Aviva is calling on all homeowners to beware Halloween hooliganism and bonfire night burglaries as latest statistics show that when the clocks go back crime goes up.
Avoid the Wrong Kind of Fireworks
Research conducted by the insurer with 16 police forces across the UK found that the week from 30 October to 5 November last year saw an average increase in reported burglaries of 26%* compared with the weekly average for the rest of the year.** The highest increase was in Strathclyde where police saw an increase of 57% in reported burglaries for that week compared with their weekly average for the rest of the year. This is supported by ten years of Aviva claims data which shows a 28% increase in burglary claims on Bonfire Night, making it the worst night of the year for break-ins.
Rob Townend, property claims director at Aviva says,
“Shorter days present more opportunities for criminals to work under cover of darkness. On Bonfire Night in particular, many people are out of the house at public displays or at parties and the noise of fireworks provides a distraction and means that suspicious sounds such as smashing glass aren’t heard.”
Halloween Horrors
Halloween also presents a threat to homeowners as tricks take a more sinister turn. Ten years of Aviva claims data shows a rise of 150% in malicious damage claims to the home with damage to cars rising by 50% and car thefts also increasing by 20%. Common Halloween claims include smashed windows, vandalism to vehicles and damage to garden property.
Rob Townend, property claims director at Aviva says,
“Unfortunately, the combination of darker nights and a mischievous occasion like Halloween or a noisy one like Bonfire Night present too good an opportunity for some criminals to resist. These are real hotspots in the crime calendar when homes and cars can be more at risk than any other time in the year.
“However, simple measures can help to minimise the risk – put the car in the garage if you have one, tidy up any loose garden items or ornaments so they are not used to cause damage and make your house look occupied if you are going out by leaving lights on and of course make sure all doors and windows are securely locked.
“Obviously, theft and malicious damage are covered as standard by your home insurance if the worst does happen, but it’s best to take steps to avoid having the worry of being a victim of crime in the first place.”
REMEMBER REMEMBER…TOP TRICKS TO AVOID BEING TARGETED BY CRIMINALS:
· Put the car in the garage or tucked out of the way for the night
· Move any garden ornaments, potted plants or bikes from the front or side of your house and out of sight
· Don’t feel you have to answer your door, to trick or treaters, if you don’t want to.
· Leave the radio and the odd light on when you’re out during the winter to give the appearance of someone being home
· Ensure sheds, garages and other out-buildings have robust locks
· If you enjoying a firework party in the garden, make sure your front doors and windows are shut and locked
*Based on FOI requests to 16 UK police forces on the number of reported incidences of Burglary in a Dwelling between 30 October and 5 November 2010.
**Weekly average calculated using British Crime Survey 2010/11 Crime in England & Wales 2010/11: Police Force Area tables, Table 4 Burglary offences recorded by the police, percentage change and rates by police force area, English region and Wales, 2010/11 and Strathclyde Police Annual Report 2011

Stillwater Dwellings Announces Completion of Sustainable, Prefabricated Home in Santa Barbara, California
Posted by admin in dwelling place on 09 3rd, 2011Stillwater Dwellings Announces Completion of Sustainable, Prefabricated Home in Santa Barbara, California
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) May 11, 2011
Sustainable, contemporary prefab home designer and builder Stillwater Dwellings (http://www.stillwaterdwellings.com) today announced the completion of a 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 1,600 square foot prefabricated home with a signature soaring butterfly roofline in Santa Barbara, California. It features extensive green and energy-efficient systems, and many custom modifications unique to the owners. Most important to the homeowners, it was designed in a simple, straight-forward process, built off-site in a controlled environment, and completed for an up-front, fixed price that was a fraction of the site-built alternative.
The home is approximately 1,600 square feet with 320sf garage, and is highlighted by a unique ‘courtyard’ design that emphasizes indoor/outdoor living. Inside, the home is finished with eco-friendly micro-strip birch hardwood and Marmoleum flooring, low VOC paints, dual flush toilets, super-insulated wall and roof construction, and recycled content quartz slab countertops . Outside, the home utilizes a standing seam metal “cool roof” that reflects over 30% of the sun’s rays, and large overhangs that assist with passive cooling. The 35’ wide glass window wall picture frames views under the massive oaks to the creek on the property below and the Santa Ynez mountains beyond. Above, a clerestory window section pops up above the exposed wood beams to a ceiling height of over 11’.
PREVIOUS ATTEMPTS
Like many of Stillwater Dwellings clients, the new owners had already gone through a long process with an architect and contractor, only to find that their site-built dream house was priced at nearly double their budget. Then they turned to the internet and found Stillwater Dwellings. “We wanted a Stillwater home because we had tried working with an architect for plans to build on-site, and the result was a home we wouldn’t have been able to afford. …..We also wanted the convenience of ready-made plans to eliminate the decision-making back-and-forth that can drag on in conventional building process, “ noted homeowner Art Gaspar.
EXPENSIVE CONSTRUCTION MARKET: BETTER SOLUTION
Santa Barbara’s building costs have remained high in the current recession, in part because it’s traditionally an expensive place to build and also because the 2008 Tea fire has kept the home builders busy and building rates one of the highest in the country. This made Stillwater’s approach and costs even more attractive to the clients. Not only were costs less, they were agreed upon in writing before any construction began. The home was processed through the design review committee, permitted, and built in a fraction of the time than was planned for a comparable site-built home. “The process flowed smoothly, and for the most part according to expectations. We also appreciated that the engineering and architectural fees were included in the price.”
A NEW DESIGN, MODIFIED FOR THE OWNERS
This is Stillwater Dwellings first sd132 design. The courtyard home was modified in several simple ways to work with the site conditions. The house was first sited and orientated to protect the old California Oaks. The owners started with Stillwater’s Fundamental Style package, as it included cement-based HardiPanel & batten siding, which exceeded the stringent local wildfire codes. Window sizes and placements were adjusted to maximize views of the oaks and the creek beyond. Minor modifications were then made to increase the length of the guest bedroom wing, add a walk-in closet, and personalize key finishes and colors. To the owners this was monumental, “The modification process was effortless! We subtracted square footage in some rooms, and added it in others. Stillwater was incredibly accommodating and responsive. Right from the beginning we were able to customize the design we selected to suit our site”.
PRESERVATION OF PROTECTIVE TREES & LANDSCAPING
The large 1 acre home-site featured an incredible collection of protected oak trees and sensitive landscape areas leading to a creek. Impacting them in any way was not an option. Modular offsite construction turned out to be the perfect solution. Needing minimal staging and work areas, the modules were picked up from the driveway and lifted over the trees and bushes, and then carefully down onto the foundation.
“We are LOVING our home. Even the dogs’ spirits are high” — the owners.
ABOUT STILLWATER DWELLINGS:
SUSTAINABLE FEATURES:
All Stillwater homes include a high level of green and sustainable living features: low VOC paints, dual flush toilets, ultra-high efficiency heating and hot water systems, natural wool carpeting, prefinished/engineering eco-friendly wood flooring, Marmoleum, engineered quartz slab countertops, over-insulated walls/ceilings/floors, and high-efficiency windows with argon gas and low-e film.
EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY:
All Stillwater homes are built indoors, in climate-controlled conditions to the highest quality standards and the IRC code; the same code that governs conventional site built homes. Homes are transported as 96% complete modules, installed and finished on-site by Stillwater Dwellings. Stillwater believes in utilizing proven, time-tested construction methods, not ‘gimmicky’ process.
PREDICTABLE COST:
All Stillwater clients are given fixed, up-front pricing on their home before any construction begins. Unlike traditional site-built home clients who are given estimates that commonly are exceeded during the building process, Stillwater clients contractually know what their home will cost before they begin.

Dwelling Place: A Plantation Epic
Posted by admin in dwelling place on 03 14th, 2011Dwelling Place: A Plantation Epic
Encompassing the years 1805 to 1869, dwelling place: A Plantation Epic describes the simultaneous but vastly different experiences of slave and slave owner. This “upstairsdownstairs” history reveals in detail how the benevolent impulses of Jones and his family became ideological supports for deep oppression, and how the slave Lizzy Jones and members of her family struggled against that oppression. Through letters, plantation and church records, court documents, slave narratives, archaeological findings, and the memory of the African-American community, Clarke brings to light the long-suppressed history of the slaves of the Jones plantations—a history inseparably bound to that of their white owners.

2008 Dwell Wacom Live EcoDesign Rendering Contest at MoCA Announces Winners
Posted by admin in dwelling place on 01 7th, 2011
Los Angeles (PRWEB) June 23, 2008
As part of the third annual Dwell on Design Conference + Exhibition + Home Tours that transpired in Los Angeles from June 5 – 6 (speakers conference) and 7 – 8 (exhibition and home tours), Michael Leifer and guerilla PR (http://www.guerillapr.com) designed and produced the first ever live architectural drawing contest at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MoCA) in the Upper Sculpture Plaza (http://dwell.uber.com/moca).
The 2008 Dwell Wacom Live Eco-Design Rendering Challenge featured seven of Los Angeles’ top design-rendering gurus competing in a video-game-tournament-meets Iron-Chef-style competition to determine the ”Best Designer of the Evening”. The contestants drew on Wacom Cintiq Interactive Pen Display Monitors (http://www.wacom.com/cintiq) and had their live sketches brought to life on eight hi-definition plasma flat screens forming a thirty two foot octagon of imagery over their heads.
The challengers produced 2D renderings of sustainable and modular homes and room designs that adhered to Dwell design principals: relying on green technologies for energy efficiencies, featuring plenty of natural light and color, restricting building costs to under $ 300K and limiting total square footage to 3,000 sq ft. The challenge consists of two 45 minute rounds. The judges ranked and selected Olek Zempli?ski as the first place winner and Mark Goerner as the second place winner, based upon the following criteria: creativity, aesthetics, light, flow, eco-friend efficiency, layout and functioning within the cost parameters.
”This is a great honor for me. It was a fantastic event,” stated Olek Zempli?ski, the first place winner, adding, “A great opportunity to showcase new technology and different strategies for design image-making as well as incorporating conscious sustainable design philosophy in architecture. The pressure of the live event with time constraints provided an extra thrill. Thanks to everyone who was involved in making this event happen!”
”Initially I thought the challenge was to the death, but then it became clear that sustainability was referring to architecture. It was a pleasure to join in the 7 sided octagon and sweat out some pixels with LA’s finest dressed architects and designers,” remarked Mark Goerner, offering, ”You never know what your capable of until you have an MC’d countdown, and a few hundred pairs of eyes on your screen, and a Vodka greyhound at your side. Let’s take this on the road!”
Don Varga of Wacom Technologies commented ”The contestants really showed us the power of working directly with a pen on the screen of a Cintiq Interactive Pen Display. In under an hour, they were able to create very complete and finished looking concept renderings with loads of detail. Wacom is very happy to have supplied the technology that enables Architects and Designers to perform at such a high level”.
The distinguished panel of judges for the event included:
Hernan Diaz-Alonso, Faculty, SciArc
Paul Petrunia, Founder of Archinect
Scott Robertson, New Media Department Chair, Art Center College of Design
Max Crome, Principle, Crome Architecture
Geoff Manaugh, Senior Editor, Dwell
Santino Medina, Faculty, SciArc
Jeff Daniels, Architecture & Interior Design Programs UCLA Extension
“All of the entries were impressive, considering the relatively little time the contestants were given to produce their designs,” commented Paul Petrunia, event judge and publisher of Archinect.com and Bustler.net, ”but the two winners clearly stood out. Mark Goerner, the runner-up, displayed awesome rendering skills but did not meet the program requirements as well as the winning entry by Olek Novak-Zemplinski. Olek’s entry was presented beautifully, in addition to displaying a variety of eco-friendly elements and realistic budget requirements.”
However, the challenge was about more than just technical skills, says Geoff Manaugh, Senior Editor of Dwell magazine and Wacom contest judge. ”The event really brought out a lot of imaginative ideas and responses — and there was even a real sense of humor in some of the designs. In fact, I was pleasantly surprised by how different the approaches were. Above all, I think this showed that people will always find a new, and impressive, way to solve existing challenges.”
