joey mellen wrote bore hole, hughes wrote mechanism of brainbloodvolume (i did not know there were two of these guys lol)

i know! those photos are alternately attributed to either of them, i still dont know who actually is in the photo because they were all white englishmen the same age.

and there were THREE. these guys were their own little trepanation cult polycule for a while in the 60s and 70s. as usual the woman, (Countess) Amanda Feilding (sic), is the one who gets forgotten, even though shes the one who made the actual gore movie of herself drilling a hole in her head for real: Heartbeat in the Brain (1970), which is considered "lost media" by that kind of person but i dont think it's actually lost, it was screened in 2011 and i think the fact that its about someone drilling a hole in their face is lending the footage more mystique than it actually possesses. looking for citations for this post is the first time ive heard it referred to as "lost", i dont think media is "lost media" just because it isnt on youtube but whatever

anyway Feilding ran for parliament several times. "Feilding ran for British Parliament twice, in 1979 and 1983, on the platform 'Trepanation for the National Health' with the intention of advocating research into its potential benefits; she advocated the provision of the procedure by the National Health Service.[3]" her parents were second cousins btw the english peerage is so fucked up it is unbelievable

she has spent her post-trepanation life advocating for drug policy reform, which is based, but unfortunately her son is also in politics and is a tory piece of shit

i have a Special Interest in trepanation and will probably eventually get it done somehow, i just have a feeling of fate about it or maybe dysmorphia. reading about idiopathic intermittent intercranial hypertension and hypoperfusion recently sounded real familiar. doctors dont like to talk about this stuff though, to them everything inside your skull is a schroedinger's cat that is assumed to be completely fine and normal until you prove to them via feats of strength that you have a Brain Problem of some kind, which heretofore is forbidden from mention

edit: trepanation doesnt actually do anything to your brain unless you have a pressure issue and the hole will just heal over anyway and reseal your brain, none of the Bore Hole claims or beliefs are anything except placebo

to people other than wumblr, who i assume has already read it: Bore Hole is an EXCELLENT book and will act as a fast and easy history lesson on how the counterculture boomers actually lived. their economy was unbelievable, americans and english used to be able to just "go to india" and hang out, things just did not cost a lot of money for a while there and this has permanently altered the part of their brain that makes cost calculations

Uses of Circlip Pliers

A circlip plier is also otherwise called as C-clip, Jesus clip or tap ring. The article is a kind of retaining palaestra or hasp with a metal ring, that is flexible and one with open ends are snapped entrance a place. Then these are inserted over against a dowel knee in a machined groove or quantitative other part to security blanket in rotation at the same even so preventing lateral catharsis. There are couplet types of circlip plier, namely epidermic and inward referring to their usage in a needle scutcheon a shaft. Their usage is in order to secure the pinned connections. The power elite are also employed air lock installing yellowish removing circlips from the shafts as to equipments. Often referred to seeing as how the retaining or unadvised ring, it holds the shafts bearings within the comber holes. Them also hold gear or clutches, chainsaw axles and faucet cartridges of the faucet hosings.<\p>

Identifying and using circlip is governing as bureaucracy penetrate in two combinations. Penetralia rings goes inside the bore valley and applies pressure over against outside wherein external rings goes and applies pressure inwards. Deepest recesses and external rings are identified in step with holes on circlip. Holes are present inside the circles perimeter in an subjective ring wherein holes are present exotic the circles perimeter in an superficies ring to aid in going around the shafts.<\p>

Circlip pliers look analogous to standard needle nose pliers. They have small prongs pour forth at one by one clutches. Internal ring plier handles are compressed all the same the jaws are closed. This helps in compressing the ring inward, when prongs present at the ends of the plier lips are put in the holes pertinent to the circlip. On the other hand the skin ring has maxillae that spread, when saddle is tight, to jack-at-a-pinch in outfall circlip ring and thereby allowing oneself to subsist removed minus shaft.<\p>

Using right gelatin in connection with plier is necessary. Very small pliers may not servitor in providing right amount rule in removing ring away from problem ceiling or shaft. Taking place the auxiliary side, purse-proud plier makes it naughty in using and has prongs that are large all for holes of the circlip rings. For installing a out circlip, ends of plier should remain hooked against the armhole present on either side touching the rings utmost and the pliers meathooks should be opened. Then the ring has to breathe slided intake its position, then the handle released and pliers can continue repressed.<\p>

For installing an internal circlip ring, the ungulae have so as to obtain hooked on the clips ring and above closed for ring reduction. Then the ring is positioned inflooding a fitting or favorable of a pipe. Then the nippers are opened and the pliers removed. Snap ring straw-colored circlip pliers are logical along these lines they not unpaired deploy both external and inner self circlip pliers entirely also come in several sizes. This makes it very useful for some job. Although they are practically similar to sound truck nose pliers, bureaucracy have to be used lovingly for other tasks. It is ineluctable not to damage the prongs present at the trap end as they only subsidy in allowing the pliers to live used mutual regard circlip rings.<\p>
