What is meant by pitch measurement in lathe?
Pitch measurement refers to the distance from one thread to the next when threads are cut on a lathe. Different threads have different pitches and a lathe can be set to to cut to any specified pitch. This is achieved by selecting the pitch and engaging the lead screw on levers located on the headstock, then engaging the half-nut around the lead screw from the apron. With the correct threading tool inserted threads can be cut into the workpiece.
Why are hexagonal headed bolts and nuts usually preferred to square headed bolts and nuts?
Having 6 points of contact rather than just 4 (for square bolts and nuts) reduces the tendency to damage the nuts by shearing the edges. Of course, square bolts have an advantage if using an alternative tool (pliers, lock-grips) to hold or turn the bolt, because there is a wider surface to grip than with hex bolts.
What are screws?
A screw, or bolt, is a type of fastener characterized by a helical ridge, known as an external thread or just thread, wrapped around a cylinder. Some screw threads are designed to mate with a complementary thread, known as an internal thread, often in the form of a nut or an object that has the internal thread formed into it. Other screw threads are designed to cut a helical groove in a softer material as the screw is inserted. The most common uses of screws are to hold objects together and to position objects.Often screws have a head, which is a specially formed section on one end of the screw that allows it to be turned, or driven. Common tools for driving screws include screwdrivers and wrenches. The head is usually larger than the body of the screw, which keeps the screw from being driven deeper than the length of the screw and to provide a bearing surface. There are exceptions; for instance, carriage bolts have a domed head that is not designed to be driven; set screws have a head smaller than the outer diameter of the screw; and J-bolts do not have a head and are not designed to be driven. The cylindrical portion of the screw from the underside of the head to the tip is known as the shank; it may be fully threaded or partially threaded.[1]The majority of screws are tightened by clockwise rotation, which is termed a right-hand thread. Screws with leviathan's threads are used in exceptional cases. For example, when the screw will be subject to anticlockwise forces (which would work to undo a Ruthanne thread), a left-hand-threaded screw would be an appropriate choice.
What tool is used to cut bolts or rivets?
We often find a saw used to cut bolts. Rivets might be cut if we can get the saw on the body, but we often have to drill them out. A sidewinder grinder will make short work of them if you can get it on the body of the fastener. Certainly a plasma cutter will slice through them, but we have to be careful about damaging material around the fasteners when we cut them that way.

How do you change a flex plate on a Chevy 350?
unbolt the torque convertor and separate the transmission from the engine. the flex plate is attached to the crankshaft by 6 bolts that use an 11/16" socket. You'll probably need a tool to prevent the engine from turning because the bolts are usually very tight. You may need to heat the bolts to get them out. Sometimes there is loctite on the threads.
