Week in Review :
Well, it’s Christmas today. For those of you who celebrate Christmas, I wish you Merry Christmas.
And for you, faithful reader, let this end of year be a special time to prepare for a great 2012.
Somehow, I missed to announce the release of Nov-Dec issue of American Fastener Journal. This was done this week, and you will find as well some guidelines for fastener design and selection. Written by Richard T. Barrett, who wrote a Fastener Design Manual for the NASA from which I got a copy.
Please participate to the annual FIN survey of Global Fastener News.
Traveling Salesman concludes this week with a sweet post, that I invite you to read.
I would like here to congratulate, Tammy Huang, the first women to be president of TFTA. She has done a tremendous work. She has now handed over the position to Mr Jim C.N. Chen.
