So far I have found a high end Fisher Paykel w/o icemaker and otherwise I am told to get a fridge with the icemaker inside the freezer and just not hook it up. I am assured by the salesman that the...

So far I have found a high end Fisher Paykel w/o icemaker and otherwise I am told to get a fridge with the icemaker inside the freezer and just not hook it up. I am assured by the salesman that the...
I need a new counter depth side by side 2 door fridge (the old Jenn Air is 26 5/8" depth w/o handle - I could go a little deeper but not more than 28 5/8" max). I am looking for something quiet -...
I am trying to keep it foolproof -- I have friends who have had issues with a WiFi thermostat. Also I would like to monitor fuel level remotely.
For a weekend house I am thinking of setting up a remotely viewable video camera (like people use to monitor pets or babies) to monitor the fuel gauge (in the basement) and also to monitor a remote...
The odd part of the whole process is that few, if anyone, pays the book rate. The insurance companies have a discount, the poor folks without insurance can't pay the bill -- so what's the point of...
I heard Barry Schenck on the radio and what is chilling is that they only take the cases where DNA evidence is available to be tested -- he said that a similar percentage (I forgot the number) of...
Ten years ago at my son's high school, they told me that woodshop was abandoned as they needed the money to buy computers. So sad - they had all the tools and machines, just no money for the...
Now I know where "a penny saved is a penny earned" comes from!
I have a roof like that might be similar. It is a post and beam with the roof decking of homosote about 1 1/8" thick. The homosote is both the decking and the interior finish. It was supposed to be a...
Put it on my ipad and iphone - now I cannot sync (via cable) the ipad with an older white macbook (2007), the ipad causes itunes the freeze with the "beach ball of death", oddly the phone syncs fine...
Thanks for all the info!
I am replacing a dishwasher and am looking at the Bosch 300 series and the 500 series. Anyone have any input on whether the 500 is worth the extra dollars? It has an additional drawer at the top for...
On gmail there is a choice "save to drive' or "download" (an arrow facing down) -- the "save to drive" is actually a cloud drive -- if you want to store it locally then download and open in...
I doubt you will dehumidify standing water -- the important thing is to figure out why it's there and how quickly it will return if you pump it out. I would put a small sump pump in the lowest spot...
I have had good luck with a Delta Monitor valve installed 6 years ago in a house I rent out to not the gentlest tenants.
No sure what you are cutting but I bought the Makita version of the Festool plunge track saw for sheet goods. I don't use it daily but am pretty satisfied. For accurate cutting of sheet goods it...
Recently I had the battery on my iPhone 4s replaced. I have heard that they generate some heat when being charged and that this can cause problems. I cut a few large holes in the back (behind the...
It takes a few seconds to wash and dry a knife by hand -- I am not in that much of a hurry! In fact it saves time as the knives stay sharp. And of course a few are old school carbon steel....
I find the 600/1200 (fine/extra fine) Duosharp diamond stone w holder works really well for kitchen knives, be they carbon or stainless. Lee Valley sells them as do many others. Without the stand the...
Thanks for the responses! The local computer repair shop recommended a guy who wants 30 to do it -- both dollars and minutes ---it was about 20 for the battery and tools so I am thinking that might...
Has anyone replaced the battery on their iPhone 4S? Mine discharges pretty fast especially from 40 % on down. Seems from uTube pretty doable - but would love to hear from anyone who has done it. Also...
I have a friend who is an epidemiologist at a major hospital -- the Texas infections were caused by lack of proper procedures and training. To suit up and take off the protective gear takes training...
Not so good if it's cloudy out!
The Grand Central Oyster Bar in NY's Grand Central Station has steam powered pots (function like a double boiler) at the old part of the bar to make Oyster stew in. It's tasty!
If it's like the ATT microcell it uses your cell phone and sends the call through your router and internet connection. You can activate it to recognize up to 10 cell phones. For us it's excellent,...
