    Craftsman router gear - 315.17380

    Well no wonder my router wouldn't raise and lower! The gear has broken. I've poked around for a couple days on marketplace and Craigslist, but I have not found a donor. Would anyone happen to have a donor router for sale, or possibly just this gear? It's listed as part #27 in the manual, and...

    American Precision Museum - Windsor, VT

    Stopped by the American Precision Museum yesterday, located in Windsor, VT. About a two hour drive from where we live, so an excellent day trip. For those who do not know, the museum started life as an armory producing rifles in the 1800's, and eventually moving to consumer products. I've...

The sunroom was on a concrete pad, and we had to put joists on top and fill the spaces with rigid insulation, so no plumbing is in there, or can...

    Help with three phase motor wiring

    Normally I'm ok with typical household electric stuff, but when it comes to motors and especially drum switches, I just seem to be in the dark. Also, I've never dealt with three phase power before. I have a three phase motor for a Bridgeport shaper head. I have a VFD to run it off of. As far as...

    Hook up electric baseboard to thermostat for hot water baseboards?

    Long story short - we tore down a sunroom attached to our kitchen to add onto the kitchen, the sunroom had a foundation but they poured a slab on top and there was never access to underneath because the sunroom foundation was added on after the house was built (not that it matters since there...
