If I switch strings and go to a heavier gauge, do I need to make any adjustments to the guitar?

Ernie Ball - F.A.Q.
Make the nut slots slightly wider. Not doing this will cause extra pressure on the nut, which can cause the nut to crack, particularly on the lower strings. This is best accomplished by using a file. Be careful not to widen it too much! You should also check the intonation, which will probably need to be adjusted. That is covered in another FAQ.

This explains his bloated appearance in many later episodes. When Jeremy's heart began to fail, his medication was adjusted. Heart medicine and diuretics were prescribed, and his weight returned to nearly normal (unlike his health, unfortunately).

Why is MiraClear II heavier than other clears?

Kirker - Automotive Finishes
MiraClear II (M3000) and ZOOM Clear (V2010) are both high-solids urethane clears. As such, there are fewer solvents in the formulas, making the end products heavier, or higher in viscosity. You may need to adjust your application technique when using these products. In some areas, you may consider reducing the activated clear by about 5%-10% with a urethane-grade reducer, but first check local environmental regulations to ensure this is within your local V.O.C. limits.

Why is the Thermophore Pack so much heavier than ordinary heating pads?

Thermophore Moist Heat Packs- FAQ
To relieve aches and pains with hot fomentation treatments, it is necessary for the heat to effectively transfer deeply into body tissues. To make the Thermophore pack more efficient, we have positioned weights to cause the Thermophore pack to conform to body contours. This reduces air spaces between the Thermophore hot pack and body; so more heat is transmitted to the body tissues. Ordinary stiff plastic heating pads leave air pockets. Which result in uneven transfer of heat.

Why is heavier cord better?

New Page 1
Because it's thicker, the DRŪ cord is much longer wearing. You can trim along stone walls and foundations without it quickly wearing out and breaking, the way ordinary and thinner cord does. This means you change it much less frequently. The thicker DRŪ cords also enable you to mow thicker, fibrous vegetation that would easily cause the cord on ordinary trimmers to wrap and break.

Is a heavier fabric more durable?

CLI's WeatherBeater Athletic Field Covers and Protection Pro...
Not necessarily. When woven tarpaulin fabrics are made, tapes of polyethylene are loomed to make the woven base or scrim, much like they are with clothing fabric. Once the scrim is made, it is then coated with a layer of polyethylene. This makes the fabric an impermeable membrane. In the lighter weights of fabrics, both the scrim and the coatings are thinner, making the physical properties, such a tear strength and mullen burst rather low.
