A steeper angle (tighter spiral) means the screw has to turn more times to lift the material, but it might move the material more slowly. On the other hand, a flatter angle (looser spiral) allows the screw to move the material faster but might require more effort to turn. Make it a ...
Alligator clamps are also metallic, but you adjust the pressure by loosening or tightening the screws at the tips. Most of these have rubber tips, though some might have "teeth" under the rubber to increase intensity (like these!). Jones says these are usually a bit harder to use for nov...

b) Put one layer of wicking against the staff and use 2 screws to drill this in tight. c) Wrap the remainder of the wicking as tight as possible and then even tighter (important because it preserves your wicking by letting less air through). ...
