Find a reasonably stable spot for it and you are an intelligent guy and can probably remember where you put it. However, I have heard about systems that heat a wax tart to melting point. So, instead of a flame, it is like a mini crock pot that melts the wax. Of course, you can knock that over as well and spill hot wax everywhere.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] trouble airing a tire
hi john I think what is happening is the air is moving but your tire has lost its seal with the rim. if the other tire aired up the chuck is working. I have heard of a way to make the seal start again is to do this. tie a rope in a circle just large enough to go all the way around the tire. then put the rope on the tire and stick a screw driver under the rope. then twist the screw driver around so it starts to pull the rope into the tire middle like a yo-yo. so as the rope squeezes the tire the side walls will spread out and make the air seal again.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] propane smoker
hi Steve well sense you didn't give your address here's the info you wanted. its for grilling a turkey but it mentions smoking i got this from a recipe data base of how to cook a turkey all different ways. Jim Turkey on the Grill Grilled turkey can be a wonderful variation from oven roasted turkey. Grilling a whole turkey or turkey breast requires indirect heat and a drip pan. Start by washing and seasoning a fully thawed bird. The covered kettle-style grill and medium hot coals are recommended for grilling. Arrange hot coals on either side of the drip pan and position the turkey, breast side down, on an oiled V-rack directly over the drip pan. Use a small 8 to 14 pound unstuffed turkey. About midway through the cooking process, turn the bird breast up. Place about 10 briquettes on each pile of hot coals every 45 to 50 minutes to maintain medium heat. For good smoky flavor, dampened wood chips and/or chunks may be added as well. Cover the wing tips with aluminum foil and tuck them underneath the bird to prevent burning. Insert a thermometer in the thickest innermost part of the thigh. A whole turkey is safe when cooked to a minimum internal temperature of 165 °F as measured with a food thermometer. Check the internal temperature in the wing and the thickest part of the breast too. For reasons of personal preference, you may choose to cook the turkey to higher temperatures. If the temperature under the hood is hot enough (325°F to 350°F), grilling a 12 to 14 pound turkey should take approximately 4 hours. If your grill does not have a thermometer, an oven thermometer can be used. Cooking time may vary depending on temperature of the fire, wind and outdoor air temperature.

[BlindHandyMan] shark bite connectors
all i can say about these is wow! last night my pump started running. hmmm no water on, oh no. going down in the basement i hear this hissing, again, oh no. yep one of my copper pipes sprung a leak. gr OK fill up the water jug and a sink for washing hands then close the valve and the hissing stops. well i lucked out, the hole was in a very accessible spot. remembering a friend of mine changing out an old valve with the new shark bite valves i wondered if they made just connectors to join 2 pipes together. so calling the local ace hardware i find out that yes they do. so bright and early off to the store we go and for the happy price of $7 i get one. and the silly little plastic piece used to disconnect the connector if you want to for $2. come back home and get a tubing cutter out i find the hole and put the cutter on it and start twisting. hmmm, i look as i am cutting and do i see a nice cut line? nope the darn cutter is walking down the tube, grrr. tossing that one in the trash i look and find another one i new i had. thank you dad for never tossing anything out. so back to the pipe and now i have to cut out the ruined piece of tubing. luckily i have enough play in the pipe to cut out more than the piece with the hole. ok so all edges square and sanded to remove burs. then all you do is slide the connector on one end of the pipe till it bottoms out, then pull the other pipe over and stuff it in to the other end and firmly slide it in there till it too bottoms out. turn on the water and wow, no leaks. hot dam all done and no soldering or plumbers needed. this is the very thing any person with a tubing problem needs. they work on copper, PVC and pex. the bag said so. they have all the fittings from valves to elbows and tees. a little spendy but hey i didn't burn down the house trying to sweat pipes together.

[BlindHandyMan] house water pump relay
hi, i have a shallow well jet pump in my basement. the last 2 days the relay has been hanging up. meaning it runs for a long time but if i tap on the relay box it will shut off. or when you run water the pressure will drop to nothing and the pump does not turn on. again if i tap on it, it fires right up. my question is can i use a little spray like wd40 on it. i have some other stuff that says it can be used on battery terminals to prevent corrosion. so i guess its conductive. the last time i had this problem i just put on a new relay box. but don't have the bucks at the moment and its hard to take a shower and tap the box grin. thanks Jim in Minnesota. and no its not frozen yet.

[BlindHandyMan] water pump relay
well got it all fixed. it was kind of the hose. the hose was clear but the fitting where the hose hooks to the body of the pump was plugged. took the fitting off and had to use a wire to pick the gunk out. then ran the pump abit with the fitting off and let it spray out. put it all back and wala it works.

[BlindHandyMan] the cucumber
OK haven't tried any of these out but if you are as bored as these people must have been you might give some of them a try. 1. Cucumbers contain most of the vitamins you need every day, just one cucumber contains Vitamin B1, Vitamin B2, Vitamin B3, Vitamin B5, Vitamin B6, Folic Acid, Vitamin C, Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium and Zinc. 2. Feeling tired in the afternoon, put down the caffeinated soda and pick up a cucumber. Cucumbers are a good source of B Vitamins and Carbohydrates that can provide that quick pick-me-up that can last for hours. 3. Tired of your bathroom mirror fogging up after a shower? Try rubbing a cucumber slice along the mirror, it will eliminate the fog and provide a soothing, spa-like fragrance. 4. Are grubs and slugs ruining your planting beds? Place a few slices in a small pie tin and your garden will be free of pests all season long. The chemicals in the cucumber react with the aluminum to give off a scent undetectable to humans but drive garden pests crazy and make them flee the area. 5. Looking for a fast and easy way to remove cellulite before going out or to the pool? Try rubbing a slice or two of cucumbers along your problem area for a few minutes, the phytochemicals in the cucumber cause the collagen in your skin to tighten, firming up the outer layer and reducing the visibility of cellulite. Works great on wrinkles too!!! 6. Want to avoid a hangover or terrible headache? Eat a few cucumber slices before going to bed and wake up refreshed and headache free. Cucumbers contain enough sugar, B vitamins and electrolytes to replenish essential nutrients the body lost, keeping everything in equilibrium, avoiding both a hangover and headache!! 7. Looking to fight off that afternoon or evening snacking binge? Cucumbers have been used for centuries and often used by European trappers, traders and explorers for quick meals to thwart off starvation. 8. Have an important meeting or job interview and you realize that you don't have enough time to polish your shoes? Rub a freshly cut cucumber over the shoe, its chemicals will provide a quick and durable shine that not only looks great but also repels water. 9. Out of WD 40 and need to fix a squeaky hinge? Take a cucumber slice and rub it along the problematic hinge, and voila, the squeak is gone! 10. Stressed out and don't have time for massage, facial or visit to the spa? Cut up an entire cucumber and place it in a boiling pot of water, the chemicals and nutrients from the cucumber will react with the boiling water and be released in the steam, creating a soothing, relaxing aroma that has been shown to reduce stress in new mothers and college students during final exams. 11. Just finish a business lunch and realize you don't have gum or mints? Take a slice of cucumber and press it to the roof of your mouth with your tongue for 30 seconds to eliminate bad breath, the phytochemcials will kill the bacteria in your mouth responsible for causing bad breath. 12. Looking for a 'green' way to clean your faucets, sinks or stainless steel? Take a slice of cucumber and rub it on the surface you want to clean, not only will it remove years of tarnish and bring back the shine, but it won't leave streaks and won't harm your fingers or fingernails while you clean. 13. Using a pen and made a mistake? Take the outside of the cucumber and slowly use it to erase the pen writing, also works great on crayons and markers that the kids have used to decorate the walls!! Pass this along to everybody you know who is looking for better and safer ways to solve life's everyday problems.. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Re: [BlindHandyMan] bug zappers
hi just unplug the zapper and spray it down with the air hose. or you can usualy take 4 screws out of the cage at the top of the zapper and take the cage off and brush the old bugs out. again don't forget to unplug it. they are really simple all you can fix is the bulb by changing it. if the electrical parts get cooked its toast. jim At 07:26 PM 7/29/2006, you wrote: >I want to clean my bug zapper.

hi i was using just the little earphone that sticks in your ear so it gets way in there so you can hear good. someone else thought also using ear covers to help with the sound but you really do not nead them. also with that it would stop you from hearing other outside sounds like the cat you just sucked up grin. jim At 10:44 PM 8/10/2006, you wrote: >Jim >good idea. >I don't know why I did not think of that.

[BlindHandyMan] worm bin
hello jenniffer. i have dun that very thing. get a tote bin with a lid from the local hardware stor or where ever. go to wall mart and buy worm bedding and worm food. mix up the bedding like the box says and shake on some worm food like the can says and there you have it. you can buy worms on the internet. they come in a neet little bucket all in a big worm ball. you just put them in the bedding and they are happy. you can also feed them coffee grounds. keep the lid tight because the little buggers like to crawl out and tend to dry up on the floor. yuck. enjoy jim i jennifferAt 05:00 AM 1/22/2006, you wrote: >So has anyone here had experience here with a worm bin?
