Target, home depot card security:(

We had new cards issued -- free of charge -- more than a decade ago by a bank when we showed that purchases made supposedly with our card were made at places where we were not at the time.

Sky boxes

With one small additional option a Sky digibox without a viewing card. Without a card you can't see the Free To= View Channels (FTV), of the main stream ones this currently means Channe= l 4(*) and five.

Gas Range smelly gas problem.

Russell, If it's going to cost $120 in travel, plus parts, plus labor to fix the leak and replace the faulty igniter plus any other problems the guy notices during his visit then a new stove may make sense economically.

Best way to level a building

I recently moved in two seagoing containers to make a shop out of. No permit required. Nothing. Across the creek, they are not allowed. Check locally, as the way things are where I live, and the way they are where other people live have nothing to do where your taxes are computed.

Need part for a Ryobi weedeater......help

I'd go to a GOOD saw shop (Stihl, Husky dealer, etc.) and see if they have any suggestions for you. I know Leroy at my local shop always has $1.95 to $5 solutions to problems that could easily hit $$$ if I went the manufactuer route.

12 amp wire size

Shop vacuums and routers are infamous for using these inflated figures. Instantaneous max HP is a useful measure on a router or chain saw in some cases, but is useless to a shop vacuum.

rusting tools, metal building

=BDIt wasn't =EF=BF=BDAnd it's 'm stumped. ll make it In addition to what the other posters have said, you may have it too tightly sealed also, therefore allowing it to trap the moisture in the shop. Also, using an unvented heater will trap moisture in the shop. Hank

CFL bulb in range hood ?

I use to carry a pocket knife to school and even took my shotgun into shop class because the shop teacher wanted to see it.

OT: TV In The Shop?

Yep, I've got a small TV in the shop. I even built a hanging cabinet on the wall for it and my stereo with a door of plexiglass to enclose it and keep the dust out. Nothing is better than working in the shop with a baseball game on the TV.
