    Yes. I reused old routers as access points(AP)in the past. IMO, it's not worth the money saved. Modern APs of the same brand communicate with one another, often optimize the bands they use, and...

    Just a geeky fine point:
    Unlicensed radio bands like WiFi 2.4 and 5 Ghz have transmission power limits. It's a highly technical discussion and it's something that consumers really don't need to know...

    I ran conduit when I put the garage in. The front walls are 100' apart but the cable run from switch to switch is 225'. It's still within spec but something to be aware about. The 100 meters is from...

    I started with an on-line "barn" plan when I designed my shop but wanted to have it modified in a significant way; it was 40'x35'. My builder recommended a local engineer, who I used. His approach...

    I found this list online. It's not comprehensive. For example, my Fender Strat Elite has a compound radius and my Collings I-35 has a 12" radius. The 'playability' of the Collings is exceptional. If...

    You don't need to have a compound radius. Many, if not most, guitars have a simple radius.

    Your not being a cynic, it's going to happen. In an open market, the domestic producer is already producing the total amount of product that he can at the price he can fetch. The foreign competitor...

    I can't figure out why you even need a phone app for a table saw, unless it dials 911 when it senses blood, but then again that function would be defeated by having to put your phone in airplane mode!

    I'm not the OP and don't want to highjack the thread but some of the issues are the same; perhaps the scale is greater.

    Coax is far more susceptible to 60Hz noise and should be kept as far away from the power line as reasonably possible. There is a major misconception in that shielding will protect the cable from...

    I disagree. Modern gas ovens with electric igniters have much less hysteresis than electric ovens. Gas burners heat up faster and stop generating heat almost instantly once the burner is off. ...
