    Cutting concrete pipe

    They usually have a number #4 road gauge, 4 inch x 4 inch square mesh, and it's brutal on a diamond blade saw, even though, it'll get the job done, it's just labor intensive. LTF

    Electrical outlets that work fine but plugs are tight to remove

    This is one of the smartest and most informative replies yet! IMO! I would think that these outlets that see use daily, or almost, would almost kinda clean themselves, if you will, from use as the plug gets pushed in and removed daily, creating a cleaning like effect, if you will. I will check...

    Electrical outlets that work fine but plugs are tight to remove

    I can truly relate and appreciate all the responses and am grateful. A lot of common sense approaches and responses that I will heed, and take advice from, as sometimes doing nothing is the best approach and probably applies here! Thanks All! LTF

    Electrical outlets that work fine but plugs are tight to remove

    I have seen that before and I completely understand it, and in a shop of old timers, on Heavy Equipment, we did our own studies, and testing years ago, mainly on D.C. Electrical stuff, so once again apples to oranges!!! I can appreciate it, as it's very informative, and any time you can keep...

    Electrical outlets that work fine but plugs are tight to remove

    So as I understand you're response, you don't like my suggestion, and instead of respond back with another stupid comment like yours, I simply am asking why, you say that? Give me some factual , work like educated first hand experience as I am so kindly asking for. I worked in the construction...

    Electrical outlets that work fine but plugs are tight to remove

    I can truly appreciate the honesty and the forthcoming responses as the outlets I'm referring to are mainly to are in the kitchen, 25 years old and get use every day. All are Whit rectangular grounded Leviton Decora outlets/receptacles. None are worn out or sloppy loose! I also agree that being...

    Electrical outlets that work fine but plugs are tight to remove

    I noticed a while back that there we're a few electrician's on this sight with a fair amount of experience. Let me pick you're brain. When a plug is put into a receptacle, and after a little while when done and the plus is being removed, man the plugs are tight to come out. I know replacing the...

    How to deal with Freezing Pipes

    So a lot of good points made here. At our Northern PA. hunt cabin that we use in late November to early December, since 1952, we turn the water off, gravity drain everything/leave all the faucets open for expansion, in the cold freezing weather, (32 degrees-zero or colder even), put anti freeze...

    Craftsman Garden Tractor - Model #917.273050

    I have modified several over the years to my liking, on different units. Last year a friend gave me a New Holland tractor blade with all that was needed to convert over to one of my 4 wheeler's and it works great. Where there's a will there's a way! LTF

    Garage G E Profile Refrigerator

    So when the kids moved home a couple years ago from out of state, and moved close to us. They wanted a new refrigerator in the kitchen and put the one that came with the house, a G E Profile side by side, in the attached garage. So no problem as the new one came we directed them to place the...

    how to remove stone from wall?

    A larger "Quick cut saw with diamond blade", can be used as I've done it several times. Same method, but a 12-16 inch diameter blade. Some saws take an 18 inch blade. Renting one is easy instead of purchase price for one job. Once you cut your edge line establishing the perimeter, it's just...
