Some eletric motors will burn up if the voltage is low. [Reply]

Exactly.
Bonus tip of the day:
If you are out bird hunting with your dog in burr country, spray the dog down with cooking spray before you start beating the brush. Most of the burrs with just fall right off and not stick in their fur. Doing this can say you hours at the end of the day. [Reply]

Better yet, get yourself a Pointer. Their hair isn't long enough to hold burrs.:-):-) [Reply]

I'm not all that handy, but I got tired of just throwing pencils at the ceiling, so I taped some thumb tacks on the end of the pencil and put a rubber band on another one to make a pencil bow and arrow. Not very accurate but takes up some time. [Reply]
Its that time of year again when the projects start up.....
Last weekend, when looking for some info before roofing my dad's cabin, I found this site....It seems like its got some good information on materials, calculating need and some good, detailed "how to" advice on many subjects. Its going in my favorites folder.
What projects are on your 'honeydo' list this spring?
I'm looking at the following....
-new windows
-install Island in Kitchen, new countertops or maybe tile.
-landscaping-flowerbed-raised garden
The landscaping and Kitchen are priority, but Windows are a serious probability by fall. I've never put in replacements, but can't imagine its that tough. [Reply]
Just finishing up putting ceramic tile in my kitchen(grouting sucks!). Have to repaint the outside of the house and get gutters put on. Landscaping after that. Probably gonna sell the house after painting. [Reply]
Yungdungwell posted that link that appears decent for appliance troubleshooting.
The real question and reason for this post regards brick masonry. My house has front steps with brick walls and pillars. They've got a white/yellow fungus of some kind growing on them and discoloring them.
Whats the best method to remove that? I'm thinking of spraying it with Bleech water but thought I'd check here first. [Reply]
It seems we have 2 layers in our bathroom. One that is peeling off rather easily, and another, thin white layer, that won't peel off that easily. [Reply]
