To stretch new leather boots, you can spray rubbing alcohol on the part that is tight, and then wear them for up to four hours. If boots are tight at the calf, then you may need to take them to a cobbler so he can insert a piece of leather or elastic to make them larger.

How can you stretch elastic waistbands that are too tight?

The possibility of expanding an elastic waistband depends on a couple of things. First, does the rest of the garment fit (bust, hips)? Secondly, is the elastic in the waistband loose or sewn in place. If the elastic is loose, the process will be much easier: in the inside of the garment find a place where you can open the casing about 2"-3" so you can gain access to the elastic; pull out a loop of the elastic; secure the elastic on both sides of the opening with pins so the elastic doesn't slip back in the casing; cut the elastic; add a piece of elastic to expand your waistband, remembering to allow approximately 1/2" of overlap on both ends & sew securely; now you can remove the pins securing the elastic & allow the elastic to slip back into the casing; stitch the casing closed. However, if your waistband elastic is stitched in place all the way around, as is the case with many ready made garments, you will have to remove all the stitching first before adding more elastic, remembering to allow approximately 1/2" of overlap on both ends; carefully pin the elastic back in place and resew in place with an elastic stitch that will not break but stretch with the elastic.

What happens when you add mass to an elastic band and why?

Adding mass to an elastic band increases the tension in the band, causing it to stretch further. This is due to the increase in gravitational force acting on the mass, which the band must counteract to maintain equilibrium. The band stretches until the force exerted by the tension equals the force of gravity acting on the mass.

Using Diet to Stave off the Hideous Stretch Mark?

Many pregnant women fear that they will form stretch marks. These unsightly, raised and discolored lines can be avoided to some extent by consuming a healthier diet. While consuming more fruits and vegetables are great for overall health, you really want avocados to improve skin elasticity. Slice one up and put it on your sandwich or cut up a fresh one to add to salads. The essential oils will make the skin more elastic and better able to resist the development of stretch marks.

Examples of elastic energy?

anything that stretches or compresses can store elastic energy. most common example is a coil spring. It has an equilibrium position, and you must do work (add energy) on it to move it from that position. That energy input is stored in the form of elastic energy.
