On the front of the [machine] needle, you’ll see the point of the needle that pierces the fabric. Above that is the eye which the top thread runs through, and the groove which runs all along the shaft of the needle. This groove allows the thread to be nestled inside, protecting it as the needle runs through the material and keeping it out of the way so it can glide through the material without protruding, thus creating smooth and even stitches.  2, record 1, English, - needle%20groove

Pour les sutures en surface (réparation des parois), on utilise habituellement une bobine tenue à la main, les nœuds étant faits à mesure.

The hydraulic needle effect is an important factor to consider when employing OC [oleoresin capsicum]. This is the consequence of the OC particulates penetrating the soft tissue of the eye. This is due to the correlation between the distance and the amount of pressure(size of the canister) in which it is delivered. Concerns have been raised about the possibility of soft tissue injury, prolonged irritation or possibly infection. Because of the possibility of the hydraulic needle effect, minimum safe distances have been established for each delivery system.  2, record 4, English, - hydraulic%20needle%20effect

L'effet d'aiguille hydraulique survient lorsque des particules solides, se déplaçant à une vitesse rapide, pénètrent plusieurs couches des tissus mous de l'œil. L'utilisation de pulvérisateurs manuels à l'OC [oléorésine de Capsicum], [...] qui émettent un jet liquide sous pression, peut causer des dommages à ces tissus ou une infection oculaire. Pour réduire les risques d'effet d'aiguille hydraulique, le fabricant a établi des distances minimales sécuritaires recommandées pour tous les pulvérisateurs à main.  1, record 4, French, - effet%20d%27aiguille%20hydraulique

Venetian needle-point lace, having delicate and full designs of flowers, foliage, and scrolls connected by brides, padded buttonholed edges, and string cordonnet.  1, record 5, English, - rose%20point%20lace

Record number: 5, Textual support number: 1 OBS

This type of lace is made with a needle. It is considered to be the most delicate and precious of all laces. The pattern is first designed on paper, often reinforced with a piece of tissue, on which the design is realized. The design usually represents a rose or some other flower. To start, the lacemaker elaborates the flower's outline with a thicker thread, so to add relief to the work. The next stage is to fill in the interior of the flower design with much finer thread and a variety of different stitches. A fine handkerchief medallion takes three days’ work. To produce larger pieces, all the medallions are sewn together with a thread so fine that it can only be detected by the eye of an expert.  2, record 5, English, - rose%20point%20lace

Record number: 5, Textual support number: 1 OBS

Ce type de dentelle est fait avec une aiguille. Il est considéré comme le style le plus délicat et précieux de toutes les dentelles. Le patron est d'abord dessiné sur un morceau de papier, parfois renforcé par une pièce de tissus. Le dessin représente généralement une rose ou une autre fleur. Pour commencer, l'artiste élabore le contour de la fleur avec un point plus épais afin d'ajouter du relief à la pièce. L'étape suivante consiste à remplir l'intérieur de la fleur avec des points beaucoup plus fins et une variété de tailles différentes. Un fin médaillon destiné à la création d'un mouchoir prend environ trois jours de travail. Pour réaliser des pièces plus importantes tous les médaillons sont assemblés avec un point si fin qu'il ne peut être détecté que part l'œil d'un expert.  1, record 5, French, - dentelle%20point%20de%20rose
