    Over the Air TV Recording

    I finally got the TiVo Bolt. I have it hooked up to one TV just to see if we liked it and we do. Now I need to get it hooked up to the rest of the house. The person who built the house ran single coax and double coax to almost every room it the house. They all come together in the room over...

    CompressorHook-up Question

    I am getting ready to hook up my Quincy 5hp 2 stage compressor. The plate on the motor says 21 amp. Is a 30 amp 220v breaker adequate? Is 10 gage wire adequate? The manual just says to have it wired by a licensed electrician but I can connect wires. Thanks for any advice.

    CircuitBreaker for Welder

    I bought a used Hobart Handler 120 MIG welder for my shop. The instruction manual said to use a 20 amp slow blow circuit breaker. I went to the local GE distributor today and they said that GE doesn't make one. I have a GE Homeline main box. Any suggestions? Could I just use a 30 amp breaker and...

    ChimneyHelp

    If I am going straight up through a metal roof, do I need a roof support package? There is no ceiling to deal with. The roof does have normal metal building insulation.

    ChimneyHelp

    Thanks to everyone. I didn't realize that it would cost that much to go through the wall. I just hate to put a hole through my roof and risk a leak. With the insulation, I might never see the leak.

    Ever do something so stupid you wonder if you should be left unsupervised?

    Here's one from growing up around the lumber mill, probably about 14 at the time. The sawdust pile, a big one, had been smoking for a few days, despite the fact that we had been running big sprinklers on it for a week or two. (Hot summer days and decomposing green pine sawdust gives you...

    Ever do something so stupid you wonder if you should be left unsupervised?

    One of my more recent ones, about two years ago. For background, when I was growing up, my family owned a lumber mill so I grew up around a lot of saws, planters, etc., big ones. I managed to survive with no body parts missing. Fast forward about 50 years. I was building a jewelry armoire for...

    Ever do something so stupid you wonder if you should be left unsupervised?

    She used a hand saw and finally got it down. She refers to it as her learning curve. We didn't have chaps at the time but do now. I do give her a lot of credit for persistence and hard work. The good thing is that she decided the small Poulan was too small so she went and got a good sized...

    Ever do something so stupid you wonder if you should be left unsupervised?

    This one is on my wife, who is very handy with tools and building things. She completed our house basically by her self since I was working out of town, on another continent most of the time. I told my wife to feel free to use any of the tools except the chain saw. There was a tree in the yard...
