here are some of the concept designs we are using as our inspirations

How to use Taps and die sets in engineering .CMM2

What is tap and die used for in Engineering 

A tap and die are use for cutting threads in or onto a piece of metal

TAP

When would you use a tap for a thread 

You would use a tap for a internal thread inside of a hole

Does the hole need to be bigger or smaller , explain why .

When tapping a thread the hole that is being tapped needs to be smaller than the tap because when tapping  material is being removed from the inside of the hole forming the thread

METRIC TAPPING THREAD CHART.

What are the different types of tap ( taper, intermediate, bottoming) explain the difference between them 

a taper tap is a tap that is tapered so that you can ease in to cutting the threads.

a Bottoming tap has next to no taper because it is designed to thread all the way to the bottom of the tap

a intermediate tap has between 3-5 tapered threads that is more than a bottoming tap and less than a taper tap

.

Die

When would you use a Die for a thread 

you would use a die for making the external part of the thread

Does the Bar need to be bigger or smaller , explain why .

The Bar has to be larger than the die because you are cutting in to the bar and not add material to the outside of the bar.

some die's you can use on a lathe and some that you have to turn by hand

Describe at least one challenge faced by a character or individual in the written text. Explain how this challenge helped you to understand the character or individual. 

In Tomorrow when the War Began, an important character is Ellie. One of the challenges she faced was blowing up the bridge. It is a challenge because they didn’t know about all the things which could have gone wrong, there are a lot of risks involved like being shot, being blown up.n being seen or captured by the enemy. This challenge helped me understand Ellie because her actions and planning showed she had matured over the story, she was  brave because she had to run through gunfire. The plan with the truck shows she is not afraid to go out on a limb and hope for the best and will act to save her friends and country. As the reader I was amazed by her courage as it would be a very scary experience. 

She will risk a limb for one of her friends and her lifeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

She will protect her friends for any cost

She likes to help friends and others

She feels sorrow for the enemy even though they almosted killz her
