It takes a little practice to get good at sewing with knit fabrics, but the results are worth it. Find a simple t-shirt pattern--the common pattern manufacturers make them. 100% cotton interlock knit is the most comfortable, but a knit with some polyester in it is OK too, just not as comfortable and cool.
When sewing, you will need to use a stretch stitch or, if your machine doesn't have one, you will need to use a small zig-zag stitch. This way, when your shirt is stretched, the thread won't break. On certain seams, particularly ones that go with the grain of the fabric like the hem around the bottom, you will need to stabilize the fabric along the line that you are going to stitch. You can buy iron-on, tear away stabilizer at a fabric store. You will iron a strip of it all the way around the hem (or wherever), stitch the hem, then tear away the stabilizer, being careful not to rip the stitches. This will help keep the fabric from stretching when you sew, eliminating the wavy, stretched out look that some home-made knit garments have.
Making your own t-shirts can be rewarding, but I find it much easier and cheaper just to buy one.

Artificial wood is made of many things, but oftentimes, it is made of plastic. To be specific, it can be made of old tires, soles of shoes, etc. It is a sort of plastic wood. Meaning its not totally plastic, but not completely wood either. It is a blend of plastic and wood.
What materials can be cut on a laser cutter?
The laser tool for cutting has different capabilities than other tools. it's noncontact cutting and small beam diameter (0.007 inch typical) means that it can cut intricate shapes and small features. Mechanical tools with small diameter endmills must run slowly and be careful not to break the tool or heat it too much. You can make intricate parts, such as machine components.
Lasers can also cut materials that would otherwise wear down tooling. Laser cutting carbon steel and stainless steel is commonly done with laser because it costs less than replacing tooling on a CNC machine, and it can be much faster. You can make quarter inch sheet metal parts used in stainless steel tools.
Lasers can cut materials and leave a smooth or polished edge, thus remove a secondary process for grinding, such as that caused by a plasma cutter that leaves a rough edge, or a router that leaves a rough edge. You can make point of purchase displays made of thick polished acrylic.
What is the making of large quantities of goods that are exactly alike?
Such a term is commonly known as mass production.
What did the cotton gin increase the need for?
In a rather perverse way, it can be said the rebirth of slavery in the US Southern States was due in part by the lack of a money crop to profitable export. Many historians point out that slavery was becoming a declining institution because of increasing expense of harvesting cotton. Apart from tobacco, which was a soil wasting crop, it depleted the soil rapidly. Other crops such as corn, wheat and rice made for no great wealth. The Cotton Gin made harvesting cotton allot easier, thus the more slaves the South had, the more cotton could be planted & the more profitable were the cotton plantations. Within two years of the widespread use of the cotton gin, the demand for slave labor drastically increased. By the end of those two years, the price of slaves doubled.
What is the best way to sand hardwood floors?
I work for someone part time who has over 20 years experience installing and finishing hardwood floors, and honestly the best thing to do is hire a professional to do it. The tools available for rent to average consumer will take you over a week to do something we can do in one day, and also get your inferior results. I'm a big fan of DIY, but this is one thing where the pros have a distinct advantage of knowledge and equipment. You can do it, but if you want done quickly and properly (with good results), leave this job to the pros. you don't!!! or you get a profesinal! good luck!

What are cardboard boxes made of?
Paperboard is a thin and flat material in sheet form made up from an interlaced network of
cellulose fibres. It is usually made in several layers, combined together in the wet state. A
white mineral pigmented coating is applied in one or more layers, on one or both surfaces,
enhancing whiteness and smoothness and providing a surface for printing and varnishing.
The main raw material for paperboard is cellulose, the basic organic matter of wood. The
fibres are derived from different kinds of trees, mainly pine, spruce and birch. The process by which the fibres are separated from wood is known as pulping. Fibres derived directly from wood are known as "primary" or "virgin" fibres. When used paper and paperboard are repulped, the fibres are known as "secondary" or "recycled" fibres.
Paperboard can be divided into four different grades: SBB, SUB, FBB and WLC:
• SBB stands for Solid Bleached Board
• SUB for Solid Unbleached Board
• FBB for Folding Box Board
• WLC for White Lined Chipboard.
SBB, SUB and FBB are made from virgin fibres while WLC is mainly made from recycled fibres. (all information from IGGESUND PAPERBOARD AB)
