Didn't want to break any laws so I ordered a SD Card with 11,000 games on it. The guts should be up and running next week. As soon as...

    What your Dad taught you,

    Unfortunately I am on the counter side for the most part. My old man was so engrossed in my mother's alcoholism, he didn't have too much time for his kids. He was an officer in the USAF and we moved often, a few times because of my mother's behavior. He did teach about maintaining vehicles...

    Outdoor Lighting Help Needed...

    My guess would be the boxes are daisy chained and the black and or white wires in the first box did not get reconnected for the second box when you hooked up the first light.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Added a few more wire clamps to the lighting circuit and screwed the outlets in tight. Hoping to get the Final City Inspection in the next week or so. Also did a general clean up moved the battery charger to the next vehicle in turn. Need to start the work bench next.

    Finally starting my small garage

    Well the pool is filled in and approved. Seems, filling in pools is more common than I would have guessed. A few neighbors came by, mostly retired, and commented on all of the activity. All said they rarely use their pools and spend too much to maintain them but would never demo the pool...

    Finally starting my small garage

    The fill for the pool has to be certified by a Soils Engineer to be compacted to 1500 something. Not sure what the measure is, maybe lbs / sq. inch. :dunno: The pool is about 10' deep, looking at AB or crushed concrete as the fill because of the tendency to pack tightly with water and a little...
