article: The spool pin is a piece on your sewing machine that holds the thread while you wind the bobbin. It will be a cylindrical piece that fits the hole in the spool of thread. The spool pin is commonly located on the top or side of the machine. The spool pin should fit through the center of your thread. If it has a spool cap, place that on top of the thread to hold it in place. If your machine's spool pin is on top of the machine, it may not have a spool cap. Your machine will have a small metal piece that will convey the thread as it's wound around the bobbin. This piece should be near the thread guide and will look like a tiny knob.

Cut 2 2x4s so they are 57 inches (140cm) long. Cut 4 25.5in (65cm) long cross braces out of 2x4s. Cut a 45-degree angle on each end of the 25.5in (65cm) braces. Determine how long you want your monkey bar set to be. Cut boards that run the length of your monkey bar set. Measure the length of your bars. Cut 6 2x4s 4 inches (10cm) longer than the length of your bars."
article: To build the monkey bars, you'll need at least 13 8ft (2.4m) long 2x4 boards. Get a couple of extra 2x4s in the event that you make a mistake while you're cutting. You'll also need to purchase metal monkey bars that have screw holes in each end, measuring tape, miter saw, handsaw/circular saw, 2.5in (6.4cm) wood screws, and a power drill. These materials can be found at most hardware stores or online. Whenever you are using electric saws or drills it's important you wear the proper safety gear to prevent injury. Purchase and wear a respirator, goggles, gloves, and earplugs when you are sawing or drilling into the wood. These 4 posts will act as your vertical support beams and will hold up the monkey bars. Measure 88 inches (220cm) down the length of one of the boards. Draw a straight line across the board and use a handsaw or circular saw to cut the board to the right length. Repeat this process on 4 2x4s. Line a level up against the line you drew to keep your cuts straight. Use a straightedge to help you keep your saw straight as you cut. Use the same technique that you used on the longer boards to cut these boards to size. These smaller boards will attach to the bottom of the longer planks and will rest against the ground and act as a stand for your monkey bar set. Lay a 2x4 on a flat surface and use a handsaw or circular saw to cut the plank so that it's 25.5 inches (65cm) long. These braces will be used to support the stand that you're creating. Draw a 45-degree angle on each corner of the 25.5in (65cm) braces using a carpenter's triangle. Adjust a miter saw so it cuts on a 45-degree angle and then uses it to cut these planks of wood on each side. These braces will attach to the left and right sides of each of your vertical support posts. The length of the monkey bars will be determined by how many bars you have and how far you want to set them apart. Most sets have 6-10 bars. To calculate how long your set should be, you can count how many bars you have, then multiply that by 10 inches (25cm). This will make the set long enough to set the bars 10 inches (25cm) apart. Once you get the measurement for how long you want your set to be, you'll have to cut 2 2x4 boards to the length of your set. This will connect both portions of the monkey bar set together. Purchase bars that have screw holes or a place to mount the bars. Then, measure from screw hole to screw hole, so that you know how far apart your horizontal supports need to be. Most bars that you can purchase online or at a hardware store will be between 1.52 feet (0.460.61m) long. Write the measurement on a piece of paper. Search online or at hardware stores for bars made specifically for a monkey bar set. These boards will act like the steps or ladder rungs of your monkey bars. Take the measurement of your bars, and cut the boards so that they are 4 inches (10cm) longer than your bars.

article:
Once you have spent some time thinking about your personal values, it's time to figure out how to integrate them with the rest of your family. In order to do that, you all need to effectively communicate with each other. Begin the process by asking questions. Ask your family to join you for a discussion about values. Begin by asking open ended questions such as, "What is most important to our family?" You can also try, "What brings you happiness? How does that affect our family?" Other good questions to ask include, "What makes you most proud about our family?" or "What do you look forward to when you come home?" You could also try "What embarrasses you about our family?" and "What does our family provide for you that you don't get from friends?" Consider having each family member answer these questions individually. Then you can openly and honestly compare answers. Encourage your family members to ask questions, too. During your family discussion, it is important that you all practice good listening skills. To indicate that you are listening, ask follow up questions. For example, if your partner says he values honesty, ask him how that can become more of a focus for the family. You can also use non-verbal cues to indicate that you are listening. Nod your head when someone is speaking, and smile to indicate you appreciate what is being said. Try to limit interruptions. Ask everyone to put away their cell phones and turn off the tv while you are having this important conversation. Once you have spent some time discussing your family values and enjoying quality time together, you can begin the process of more clearly defining your family values. Take some time to sit down together and make a list of the values that are most important. You can think of these values as firm guidelines that your family is agreeing to live by. Writing things down can help your family gain mental clarity about shared values. Try writing down items such as "help society" or "religion/spirituality" or "honest communication with family members". Try having each family member choose 3-4 values that they feel are most important. Combined, this will give you a manageable number of values to put on your permanent list. For example, you could choose "Safety" as one of the primary values for your family. Each family member could then indicate how they will stick to this value. You could pledge to always drive the speed limit. Your daughter could promise to always wear a helmet when riding her bike. Treat defining your family values as a family decision. If your children are a little older, such as teenagers, make sure they feel like they are an important part of the process. Say things such as, "We value your input. How do you feel about including education as one of our primary family values?" You can also encourage your kids to explain their opinions. Try saying, "What do you like about this choice? Why do you think adding humor as a family value is the best option?" If your children are still pretty young, you can find other ways to get them involved. Try having them draw a picture of the things they love about your family. Once you have reflected on your values and discussed them with your family, you should have a good idea of how to define your family values. One way to solidify them is to write a mission statement. This is a document that indicates what your family values and can also include goals. The mission statement is a formal declaration of the values you share as a family. Write down what the purpose of your family is and a strategy for making sure that you remain focused on that purpose. Try writing an introduction that states why your family is choosing these particular values. You can talk about how your family is committed to these values in order to help promote good life choices. The introduction doesn't have to be long, just a paragraph will do. List the values. You can organize them by categories such as Health, Happiness, Balance, and Stability. Then, you can indicate your family strategy for sticking to each of these values. You can print the mission statement and have it framed. Having it hang in your home is a good way to remind each of you of what is truly important to your family.
