Of course, thyristor power switches in household appliances is very compact and convenient, but… КУ201, КУ202 and familiar to all cheap copies, unfortunately, tend unjustly to fail. Failsafe only thyristors for industrial use (TL), but they are quite expensive and overall. Besides working, for example, an electric heater thyristor (triac-like) inclusion creates in radios and tape recorders unpleasant 100-Hertz background.

In the manufacture of models or devices containing frequently unscrews detail, there is often a need to do the knurling (knurled) outer surfaces of the nuts or screw heads. With this purpose usually use a special device consisting of one or two fine teeth hardened rollers in the mandrel. During rotation of the part fixed in the Chuck of the lathe, the teeth of the rollers are pressed into the surface and form therein a corrugation. With the appropriate equipment the operation is not complicated. However, if you want to make knurled at home?
