The Contents of an Event Planners Tool Kit

There have been many articles written on what a wedding planner has in her Emergency Kit or what a bride should have in her wedding day kit, but there hasn't been as many written on what an event planner has in their kit. Do they even have a kit? Of course they do. No self-respecting event planner or organiser would attend an event without their trusty tool kit.

Every planner is different and will have their own style, choice and brands that they use, but fundamentally most of us will have a very similar list. When I am organising an event I usually have my practical kit and my event bible. Today we are looking at the practical kit. Now it doesn't have to be anything fancy, infact I would advise popping down to your local Bunnings and picking up one of the small workmans tool boxes and using that as they have plenty of compartments. Another good idea is to use one of the scrap booking tool boxes, they also have many handy compartments for storing the types of things I am about to suggest.

Now you need to try and think ahead of time and anticipate all the little things you might need when you are onsite at an event. To help I usually split my list up into categories; essentials, tools, admin & extras. Now remember the list below is not exhaustive one but it will certainly cover all your basic requirements:

Essentials


Notepad Pens Nurofen or Panadol Highlighters Blue Tac Drawing Pins Glue/Adhesive Rubber Bands Tissues Business Cards Small Umbrella Hand Fan Matches or Lighter Tools


Torch/Flashlight Screw Driver - flat head and Phillips Small Hammer Tape Measure Batteries Waiters Friend Pocket Knife Extension Lead Double Adaptor Plug Power Cord Electrical Tape Admin


Envelopes Stapler & Staples Ruler Calculator USB Stick Blank CD's Post It Notes Paper Clips Sticky Tape Extras


Mints/Gum Bottle of Water Deodorant Band Aids Sewing Kit

Cordless Drill - Questions and Answers

The cordless drill is a wonderful tool and every tradesman will have at least one, but what if you have never owned one, how do you know what to buy? Hopefully these questions and answers will help you to decide.

What size cordless drill do I need? The answer is, what do you need it for? Hey that's a question, not an answer! The size of drill is dependent on how you are going to use it, for putting furniture or even kitchen units together a 12 volt cordless will be enough. If you plan to undertake construction work then a 36V one will be more appropriate.

What sizes do they come in? Cordless drills are available from 6 volts up to 36 volts. The lower end around the 6-12 volt range are really electric screwdrivers but at the other end of the spectrum 36 volt cordless drills are pretty much the same as a mains powered drill, without the trailing flex.

What is a hammer drill? A hammer drill is used for drilling into masonry such as brick, blocks or even concrete. It is called a hammer drill because the drill actually pounds the end of the drill bit as it is rotating to drill faster.

What is an SDS drill? An SDS drill is a machine with a special type of 'chuck,' It is actually a slot which accepts an SDS drill bit which has a specific shape to fit into the end of the drill. These types of drill are favored because there is no need to have a chuck key or indeed a chuck.

How powerful is a cordless drill? As I said before a 36 volt drill is just as powerful as a mains drill but the two measurements which are the most important after voltage are:

1: Beats per minute; This is the number of times the drill pounds the drill bit every minute. A higher number is better and a good starting point is around 4200 BPM

2: Impact Force: This is measured in Joules, an energy transference measurement and again the higher the number the better, look for something above 2.1.

Warhammer 40k Advanced Projects - How to make a fire escape, Balcony & Stairs Add

Each level of most buildings have a fire escape in order to save lives in emergencies. Not only save lives but also adding some beauty to the building. Not only buildings in real life that we have to escape a fire, but also in the wargame. Any Warhammer 40k multilevel buildings to a fire escape in it, so be careful to make it realistic.
Creating a fire escape or balcony and stairs and the installation into a building that would fit perfectlyfire escape

Nothing makes the Warhammer 40k multi-level building to escape a more realistic fire. You can easily add it to all buildings that do, just think how cool it will look like. This article was developed for manufacturers Warhammer terrain. So ... if you meet the challenge, we left him.

Material List

Popsicle sticks

Scissors

-Utility Knife

wire mesh (point 2 for details)

PVA glue(White glue)

COLOURS

Red blood

Cemetery Earth

Gun Metal Stud

Step 1 Prepare the steel frame

Okay, to build a house or structure is already understood that you have a frame or a steel frame. So here we have a Popsicle stick that are necessary in building the steel structure for the collection. This can all be used to create the framework of platforms, balconies, wall bracket and move on. After collecting the required Popsicle Stickcut ends.

To save time trying to cut the Popsicle stick from the group or the federal government, so they are cut evenly. Paint After cutting the ends of all the Popsicle stick with a blood red.

Then dry brush with graveyard earth color. But do not paint over the red blood, the blood is bright red, having done all this in order to attack all his time dry brush some nail gun, metal processing for the color on the popsicle sticks can be seen. This isbe to where your free will or as heavy or light metal / rust what you will. It 'better to have a 50/50 mix.

Step 2 Prepare metal mesh

There are many materials that can be effectively used as a metal plate steel, but as a screener, which is cheaper and can be brought to each task. This will be our position, be used for this step, simply remove the screen from his grasp. After removing the screen trying to flat-screen for this work islater.

Then cut some strips of the network. Only a pair of scissors for cutting. To measure the mesh, the width of a Space Marine and a half

Step 3 Glue knitted Framing

After the separation of the strips, the glue Popsicle sticks to the mesh strips framing. Better ensuring that the mesh is completely flat, if one has done well in flattening in a second phase, and not folded or rolled. I like to use the force of gravity until the glue to dry. To bringTo paint the place from Popsicle sticks on the mesh tubes. For good reason, it is much easier this way. It 's a very good idea, the platform on a piece of cardboard or something that is difficult to manage, but easy, so we decided to outline the box. Then use the cardboard as a template. Just the box to your shirt and cut your platform.

Step 4 Glue the construction of platforms

Paste the cut all platforms that alreadyfinished buildings with white glue (white glue). Just flip horizontally the building for this project, and insert two tubes of color on both sides of the platform, to keep it in place while drying.

Step 5 Make your steps

The preparation steps or stairs, you start to have the desired width of your stairs cutting strips of mesh. Similar platforms, we used to know a Space Marine as a reference for what we wanted our scale.

After determining the width of the steps, cut theStrips in step size pieces. Besides cutting some Popsicle sticks for framing. Finally, glue the pieces on your network that way.

Step 6: Make your railing

Get some straws and then paint the blades of the same color as the steel frame rust, so that cooperation from the inside with the color of the frame.

Also, cut and paste them on the platform. Just like what we have in the first part of measure, use a Space Marine to decide how high or low you want the parapet.

Step 7 GluePlatform Scale

After all these procedures the final step, you put the stairs to the platform and let it dry.

And that's it!
