How do you eliminate problem of caustic embrittlement?
To eliminate the problem of caustic embrittlement use sodium phosphate instead of sodium carbonate as softening reagents. Adding tannin or lignin to boiler water blocks the hair-line cracks and prevents infiltration of NaOH into these areas. Adding Na2SO4 to boiler water also blocks the hair-line cracks.
Why would you use a pillar drill instead of a hand drill?

What is a tek screw?
A tek screw is a screw that has a drill bit tip for a point rather than coming to a sharp point like a needle. These are self-drilling screws and need no pilot hole. Tek is a brand name for self-drilling screws as Kleenex is a brand name for nose tissue. self-drilling screws are similar to sheet metal screws but have a drill point instead of coming to a sharp point and will drill their own hole. This eliminates the need to pre-drill a pilot hole.

What do you do for leg aches?
I would suggest massaging it, or taking a hot bath. Try stretching the muscle instead of keeping it in one place, because you do not want it to cramp. Also, stay hydrated - Orange Juice is best for this, but water will do.
