Welcome. What part of KY you from? I'm in NoKY myself.

Doesn't your opener have a safety release cord hanging down that they could have pulled to release the door? If so, why were they so stupid that they didn't just pull that and slide the door open?

OK. Thanks for the info. I've seen it for a long time but never heard anyone say anything about it. :lol_hitti

When I try to "Mark Forums Read" from the quick links drop down menu, I get the result as follows: Your submission could not be processed because a security token was invalid. If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you...

I like it. Might try to make some next time I am on my days off. I've got a few 4x4's laying around taking up space. Plus I need some saw horses. :thumbup:

We did the regular restore last summer. Spent almost a month doing an extremely large deck surrounding our above ground pool. Spent around $1500.00 in product. (Yes it is that big). It looked good after we put it down. We followed the instructions to the letter. So imagine our shock this...

It is an overhead service. Right now there is nothing plugged in. I have only been working for one week out of the month as I'm gone the other 3 weeks. I will check the usage as I'm working though. As far as the amp clamp's, are the cheap ones at harbor freight good enough for what I will...

Man, all great responses. Thanks. :bowdown: I am currently in Japan so when I get home on Wednesday I will be doing these. Unfortunately, there is no spinning wheel on this meter, just digital. (At least as far as I remember there is no wheel.) I've been wanting to get one of those...

Hey all, I have a question that I hope someone here can help with. We bought a house at the start of the year and have been remodeling for the last 4 months. We are not living in the house and only have an alarm system and a radon mitigation system drawing power. Nothing else. According to...

Asking what my day is like is like asking which way the wind is blowing. It changes all the time. I work anywhere from 5-14 hours and start duty anywhere from 6am to 6am, (24 hours a day). It makes it hard to get on a good sleep schedule. But I get paid well and have good benefits so it...

:thumbup: Ahhh, that had me laughing pretty good. I know, I know. What is it with these women and their comfort? :dunno: I'm good with going out in the bushes and using a leaf. But alas, she can, and will, make my life hell if she isn't comfortable. I guess that is why I work as hard...

Yea, me personally, I don't care. I never use the ones that are in all the hotels over here. But my wife hates being cold, so I gotta keep her happy. I was wondering what the draw for them would be. I was looking at some literature that I picked up at the store on them and it appears to me...

That is something that I was wondering about also. If there was some way to reduce the voltage just enough. This will be in new construction so I can do whatever is possible. Also, for whoever said the Japanese are efficient, I used to think that also. Until I started working over here...

Ok. Thanks for the replies. They are labeled as 100v 50-60hz. So looks like I will try and find a model made for international use for sale over here. Not the easiest to find. Or **** it up and pay the US price. :mad:

I have a question that I hope the community here can answer. We are building a new home and we want to put the washlet toilet seats in the house. Obviously, we are 120/240v in the US. I work in Japan and can get the same seats at about half the cost of them in the States. However, in...
