Currently, diamond is regarded to be the hardest known material in the world. But by considering large compressive pressures under indenters, scientists have calculated that a material called wurtzite boron nitride (w-BN) has a greater indentation strength than diamond. The scientists also calculated that another material, lonsdaleite (also called hexagonal diamond, since it’s made of carbon and is similar to diamond), is even stronger than w-BN and 58 percent stronger than diamond, setting a new record.


WOW that means there gonna have to add 11 and 12 to the mohs scale? 8O


your gonna have a hard time getting me to take off my lead apron...

they were worried about the length and my legs inability to bend out straight, because if you bend lead too much it may crack. but we decided if i have to ill just pull it on top of me like a blanket and not actually wear it till i get my legs fixed. either way i am going to love ittt.

so Dad is the superhero then? In my house my little brother ends up having to do all the heavy lifting - at 6'5 and two-hundred-something ( I don't know his exact weight) he's the biggest.

Happy you got your lead apron, they took away two of my winter comforters while I was at school :(

Well, I guess we'll never hear from Strapples again--sniff.

He's entered a state of perpetual stimminess which is probably impervious to WiFi even, let alone X-rays, nuclear fallout, aliens, and THEM.

Of course he'd better pay his bill on time, or his lead apron will be repossessed, and the credit agency will own not only the lead apron, but anything found inside as well, such as someone (let's call him "Strapples" for the sake of argument) who might possibly be useful to its IT department as a collateral slave... :P

EDIT: Fixed incorrect possessive pronoun--I hate having grammatical OCD.

CLICK HERE FOR PICS

I have been waiting for this day for years, since the first time I have ever gotten an X-Ray I have had a desire to get myself a lead apron. You are probably looking at me in the picture above asking, why, why a lead apron. Well whenever I have gotten X-Ray’s I have always noticed an odd phenomenon, my breathing would get slower, my heartbeat would get slow, and I would become very relaxed, especially with PVC lead aprons. Until a few years ago I did not realize that this was due to my autistic sensory integration disorder. In the last month I visited with Rocky who told me to get in contact with PNWX (Pacific Northwest X-Ray) I thought back to all of the times I have had X-Rays at the hospital and the manufacturer Techno-Aide popped into my head. I spoke with Dawn Winker there and she immediately understood why I was inquiring about a lead apron, in fact they have had clients before get them for the deep pressure and warmth, I was quite glad about this but the order I was about to make would be very unique.

I ordered myself not a lead apron, but a lead body wrap, according to some dreams I had. it is 55 inches long and I am 64 inches long, with the thyroid collar it is about 58 or so, at that point my mouth is buried in the warm nylon of the thyroid collar. It weighs 28 pounds.

Last night was my first night with it and I slept beautifully, I fell asleep around 10:00-10:30 PM and I woke up today around 9:00 AM. I absolutely have fallen in love with how heavy and warm it is and how smooth the material feels, this morning I had a hard time taking it off cause all I wanted to do was keep rubbing my head in the warm smooth PVC and smelling it.

Talk about heavenly! hehe.

I give many special thanks to Dawn Winker at PNWX (Pacific Northwest X-Ray) and Techno-Aide for their extremely generous donation to make me more comfortable in life. May this blog post stand forever as a symbol of their generosity and power to make dreams come true.

Bonzer, Dude!

Your very own Cow Squeezer!

One of these days I'll have to buy a lead blanket myself. Just a simple one, but your observations & mine paralell.

I always ask the dentist to leave it on me after xrays while he works...

pnwx.com is the best place, speak to dawn@pnwx.com shes their autism specialist practically. mine is a very high end wrap around type.

That looks neat. I like the different colors of the sparkles in each picture. I am glad you slept well all night with the big hug feeling.
