Re: [BlindHandyMan] Seeing is believing
Hi Victor, I have a friend who is blind who works as a mechanic for the L.A. fire department and has for 31 years. I don't remember if he has a computer. I could ask. He also has many cars that he takes apart and puts back together. He offered to show me how to do it if I ever come back that way. grin L8r, Doreen - Original Message - From: "Robert J.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] ideal tool and equipment shop
Lee, There used to be a place here that rented service bays for you to work on your car. It was about 30 years ago. The problem, these days, is that the liability insurance makes this prohibitive. It would be great if we had such a place where every tool we could ever dream of using would be at our fingertips. I have had to invest many thousands of dollars to equip my shop with the tools and equipment to do the things that I want to do. - Original Message - From: Lee A.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] slip joint leak: I messed up?
Tom, Another thing to check is the short piece of pipe that screws onto the big drain piece in the sink. This pipe is called the tailpiece and screws onto the drain basket with a fine thread. this fine thread should have a bit of pipe thread sealant on it and it should be screwed up tight to the drain basket. When you are tightening the slip joint nut, you are turning it in the direction that can loosen the tailpiece thread. Check to make sure this has not happened. Another thing is to make sure that none of the pieces have rotted through with either small holes or cracks. Good luck. - Original Message - From: Dale Leavens To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2006 7:30 PM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] slip joint leak: I messed up? I am not sure I fully understand the set-up you have but most of my drains have a tail coming down from the bottom of the sink which slides into the top of the sewer, sometimes right into the top of the trap. There is a nylon ring like a compression fitting you slide over the tail just under the nut which is squeezed between the hand nut and the inside of the sewer fitting so when you screw the nut down it forces this ring down into the top of the sewer drain fitting. The ring is wedged in cross section, the thin side goes down and this forms a compression fitting around the tail of the sink. If the tail is distorted you won't get a good seal but usually that doesn't matter a lot unless there is pressure in the sink, once the trap begins to syphon that fitting will be quite forgiving. If the drainage is slow though, drips will squeeze out. Of course you prefer it to be water tight anyway but in my experience, hand tight is all you need. Here, common sizes are inch and an eighth, inch and a quarter and inch and a half, the fit should be snug. There are of course many different arrangements and in an older house often some cobbled together hybrid. Your system may be quite different, it actually sounds quite different but I might be misunderstanding it.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Hot water heater
Richard, It would be helpful if you can tell us what type of water heater you have. (eg. electric, gas with a pilot light, gas with electric power vent, etc.) The answer will depend on the type of water heater, since the reset button is different for each type. I will assume that it is not a gas heater with a standing pilot light, since you didn't say that you had to relight it to get to operate again. - Original Message - From: Richard Most To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2006 12:09 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Hot water heater i all, I have a hot water heater that popped the reset button.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] ideal tool and equipment shop
Lee, Guess what, this mystical shop of which you speak, does exist. It is called your local community college. granted, they gave me some shit when I signed up for a wood working class back in the spring. I jumped through their stupid hoops and signed a waiver, but we had full access to a high school shop with lots of tools I don't have, and don't have room for. The only thing that I didn't like was that I thought I was paying for a class to learn about wood working, but what I got was access to a shop and a guy who would answer your questions if you could get his attention away from the one cute girl in the class. I gave up after a couple of weeks. But others may have a better experience if their local community college has a class. Later. -- Blue skies. Dan Rossi Carnegie Mellon University.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] blind techniques
I have to agree with everyone on this, (nothing like a strong stance). When I first saw Mickey's and Tom's messages, I agreed with them to a certain degree. Sometimes there is virtually nothing I can get out of certain posts, but other times the posts are extremely useful. I am extremely liberal with the delete key but I subscribe to a number of lists work and none work related and my delete key is getting a bit tired. Never-the-less, I would much rather have Ray and others out there doing the research with the occasional clinker in there rather than always have to do it myself. So, I prefer that we keep things as they were, and there is really no reason at all for anyone to "get the hell out of here". There are a number of people on this list who are pretty much amateurs like myself, a number of folks who are just lurkers, and a few who are exceptionally valuable for their hands on experience. I include Mickey, Tom, and Dale as well as a few others who I can't remember at the moment, in this category. this is a tremendously useful list and I would rather not see it get ripped up in flames over a misunderstanding. So let's get back on the track of building things. -- Blue skies. Dan Rossi Carnegie Mellon University.

[BlindHandyMan] forwards to the list
Personally I'm in favor of them so long as they pertain to the subject of being handy. I often take nothing out of them myself as I don't have a vehicle, a table saw, or a drill press either. I do know that many members of this list do have such things though. So the fact that I personally might not benefit from a post of that nature doesn't mean that it shouldn't be posted as somebody might just grab some useful information from it. Like I said so long as it's on topic for the list is the main thing. Along with that though I do hope that somebody is getting use of the information. Sadly there's no way to determine that. Consider this right now this list has 214 subscribers counting the archiving service so chances are good in my opinion that some person out there is learning from any given post. I too would like to have it my disposal more instructional material written for the blind, but as anybody on here over the age of 18 should already know that's not always going to be the case. As a result we must adapt to the sited world as they aren't going to adapt to us. I'm speaking as just another list member right now and nothing more as this is only my opinion.

[BlindHandyMan] electric: Hot water heater
October 19 sent at: 11:15 AM EST Richard, I am guessing as Dale has kindly suggested. Especially that you have mention electric hot water unit. I would do a test on both heating rods. Guessing the bottom one is showing wear. Do you do a yearly empty the water tank to keep the cramp out of the bottom of the tank? I learned that in my other home I use to have. As, here in the city with a Boiler that handles my hot water and forced hot water heat. The pipes need to be cleaned I am not a plumber or want to mess with a Natural Gas boiler, so every two years, I have this Guy Jeff come over and go through my entire system. geno PS: thanks guys for all the valuable information past through this group! Greatly appreciated!

RE: [BlindHandyMan] ideal tool and equipment shop
Lee, back in the '70s and early '80s I ran an equipment leasing and rental business. Back then, if you had basic aptitude, and didn't mind getting your hands dirty, you could still say, repair your own car without thousands of dollars of diagnostic equipment. Anyway, we actually thought about doing something very similar to what you're talking about here. What killed the plan though was the astronomical cost of the insurance we would have had to carry. I've lived in highrises for a lot of years, and I always wished they would at least have space so you could build stuff, and now I'm really enjoying having a basement again.

However like most school shops it was well stocked with all sorts of tools and equipment. Imagine, if you would, someplace where you could go and say rent the use of a professional woood lathe and all the tools that go with it. same for any of the power equipment we discuss on this list.. Table saws , power tools the average home does not have a complete stock of. So you tell your family members or Friends you are off to Joe blows shop and come home maybe with a fnished project or at least something you started and done with all the correct tools. Now take that one step further and inside that rented shop is one or two professionals who might assist set up your wood lathe project or in my case I really liked designing and making things on the metal lathe. so if someone wins the powerball or big lottery, there you go, invest in a rental shop which would bring a great deal of satisfaction to many.

[BlindHandyMan] Harbor Freight, a good tradeoff
Well, I've been whining for a year or so about how much I need one of those Tissot vibrating watches that cost $400 or so. And, my wife I believe was going to buy me one for Xmas. Yesterday though, I decided I could save money and really be happier buying a compressor, which I've also been whining about not having. So, after I got the "clearance" from my wife, I checked around a bit and finally bought a small relatively inexpensive one from Harbor Freight. I was able to get the compressor, hose, coupling set, blow gun, 3/8 drill and 3/8 air ratchet for about $160.00, and that includes shipping. And, since I saved us so much money, I'm going to have another 30 amp line put on the breaker box in the basement, which is something else I've wanted for a while. BTW, I got really good service from the folks at Harbor Freight.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] slip joint leak: I messed up?
Dale, Yes, it's quite different, The threaded "tail" from the drain takes an inch and a quarter slip nut and has a flange shaped plastic insert that is pushed up against this tail by a small flange on the top of a piece of smaller pipe with the afore mentioned slip joint nut holding this all together. This first pipe is maybe 2 inches long and is a kind of joiner between the drain and a further set of slip joint pipes that bring the drains from the two sinks together and go through the trap and into the cast iron sewer. The old stuff had no washers in the slip joint nuts but the new nuts came with square cross section washers but with a washer in the top fitting where it goes up against the larger drain pipe, the nut won't thread on enough to stay put. I suspect that slow drain is most of the problem causing the backup that leaves the pipe full long enough to leak. I'm beginning to think the vent is stopped cause it bubbles a lot when full. Thanks, will continue to thrash this weekend.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Harbor Freight, a good tradeoff
Sounds like you have a plan, grin. Don - Original Message - From: William Stephan To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2006 11:47 AM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Harbor Freight, a good tradeoff Well, I've been whining for a year or so about how much I need one of those Tissot vibrating watches that cost $400 or so. And, my wife I believe was going to buy me one for Xmas. Yesterday though, I decided I could save money and really be happier buying a compressor, which I've also been whining about not having. So, after I got the "clearance" from my wife, I checked around a bit and finally bought a small relatively inexpensive one from Harbor Freight. I was able to get the compressor, hose, coupling set, blow gun, 3/8 drill and 3/8 air ratchet for about $160.00, and that includes shipping. And, since I saved us so much money, I'm going to have another 30 amp line put on the breaker box in the basement, which is something else I've wanted for a while. BTW, I got really good service from the folks at Harbor Freight.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Seeing is believing
Dale, Of course none could say it better, the attitudenal change is slowly happening and I'm never sure how much single examples help, it is so easy to make it into a "oh isn't that wonderfull" film and have "them" not get the point. But if one doesn't try, one surely fails.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] slip joint leak: I messed up?
Hi Mickey, Yep, I looked carefully at the tail piece and it is coroded solid, so if it is leaking it's cause it has crack. I'm going to put some compound or teflon tape on that thread also to see if that stops it. With the supplied washer in the slip joint nut, the nut can't come up far enough on the tail piece thread to hold so I think either the washer is too thick or the threads on the tail piece are stripped.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] click ruler or rototmatic ruler
Hi, Rob, The clickrule is great for quickie measurements as it clicks every 16th inch. The rotorule, however has a square nut and a lock nut so you have accurate resolution to at least 1/64th inch; better if you have a good sense of when the nut is truly diagonal to the flat surface used as a reference. It's slower, but if you're measuring the positions of holes to be punched and drilled, this is far better.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] click ruler or rototmatic ruler
rob, Better is not appropriate here, the click rule resolves to a sixteenth of an inch and is faster to set, while the rotomatic is good to a sixty fourth and is slower to spin a long way. I have and love them both, but that's from a day, long ago, when they weren't so expensive. for most work, unless you're doing high quality cabinetry or metla work, I'd bet the click rule is more than adequate.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] turkey, how large?
Yes, fried turkey is outstanding when done right, but it sucks when it's done wrong. There is, or used to be, a guy who ran a frying service to the east of here. He had a small stock tank on blocks filled with oil. He had four 85,000 BTU propane-fired salamander heaters under the tank. You would bring your turkey and he'd attach a flag with a number to it. Typically, people just left the turkeys and came back in an hour or so. I can't recall how much he charged, but it had to be cheaper than buying oil for your very own private fryer.

[BlindHandyMan] Driving and Flying.
Tom Divulged: There are some things a blind person can't do, like driving a car or flying a plane without sighted help *** Sorry Tom, but if I want to, I can drive or fly a plane just like anyone else. Sure, that pole or home on the corner and anything else that is bolted to the ground might not like it, or the people I run over, but heck, who needs sighted help to do those things when I can do it just fine. Like I said, I can do it, just can't do it legally.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] blind techniques
similarly, even though it may be advertising, there have been some articles that explain what a unit or substance will and will not do (CYA on the part of the company) and that is informative as well. Even if it's main benefit was to keep the company from getting hauled into liability cases. so I am thankful, if even what I have learned often, is that I am under experienced for what much of what the other guys can do. Info is knowledge, and fore warned is fore armed, and isn't that half an octopus?

Re: [BlindHandyMan] blind techniques
in your defense Tom. I recently read a book on tape from NLS. I forget their RC#. But it was called "Windows for Dummies". I am one. I thought it would help. Now reading along so far, carefully tells you alot. But it all comes crashing down right here! The book was full of, "right click" and "double click on the ..." and i read the whole thing, (gaining alot on windows structure) and found no key stroke commands. Now, my complete frustration makes me ask, "why would NLS put it on tape? Just for the *oherwise print impared?" So those who can't hold a book, or the dyslexic will benefit, and I think that's great. But even a readers note would have been helpful. So i can, and we've all been there, feelthat frustration.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Driving and Flying.
victor, Of course you're correct, anybody can do, or try to do, anything they want. it's the consequences you have to watch out for. Maybe we have to say that there are a few things blind folks can't do as well as most sighted folks can, most of the time, probably, depending, etc. I once was steered to a blog from some por pilot who was talking to some blind guy who was trying to get money to buy his own personal helocopter. He said that reading the instruments was going to be the hard part. boy was that blind guy naive, reading the instruments wouldn't be that hard. but getting a chopper back on the ground without sight would be a real test, Now, that, I think, is something a bat just couldn't do with any techniques I can imagine today.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] click ruler
I have a machinist friend and showed him the click ruler, asked if the price was fare, he said yes, not a device that lends its self to mass manufacturing, and would take more than an hour to make. So that's a fair price for the work done. But too bad it is so high.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] click ruler or rototmatic ruler
Rob, There really is not a "better". As others have said there is an accuracy difference. They both have their advantages and disadvantages. The Clickrule is faster to adjust than the Rotomatic to get your measurement. The Clickrule will do inside measurements more easily than the Rotomatic (in most circumstances), just because of its design. The Rotomatic will lie completely flat against your work piece so that you get better measurements. Because of the 2 stop blocks and the knob on the Clickrule, it won't always be lying right against your workpiece and, therefore, your accuracy may suffer. The clickrule can actually have better than a 1/16" accuracy, especially when transfering measurements. The lock knob can be locked between the detents (which are 1/16" apart) for this added accuracy. The way you read the two devices is a bit different, too. The Rotomatic is read at the 1/2" increments when the raised thread is flush (you just can't feel it) with the edge of the large rectangular nut and the mark is on the same side as the raised 1/2" marks. The Clickrule 1/2" increments are read with the raised thread left so that you can still feel it next to the body of the tool. To check this with either tool: 1. Run the big rectangular nut on the Rotomatic all the way to the zero end of the tool and have it flush with the end with the mark on the same side as the raised 1/2" marks. With the Click rule, flush the end of the threaded piece with the body of the tool (the zero point. 2. Now with the Rotomatic, rotate the large rectangular nut exactly 8 full turns and you will see how it ligns up with the first 1/2" raised mark. On the Clickrule, move the body of the tool exactly 8 clicks to lengthen it and you will see how it aligns with the first raised 1/2" mark. They both use 3/8" diameter extension rods, but the thread of the attaching screw is different between the two rules. They both use a Number 10 screw, but the Rotomatic uses a 10-24 coarse thread and the Clickrule uses a 10-32 fine thread. I have both rules and have changed all of the extension rods to the 10-24 thread, so that all are interchangeable. I, also, make some of my own extension rods which are up to 36" long. I have actually used these tools to well over 20 feet in length. The Clickrule has 2 stop blocks on it so that you can read either up to 6 inches or 12 inches. You will have to remember which stop block you are using for each particular measurement. There is , also, a 1/4" offset that you will have to get used to with both tools. This comes into play depending on which side of the stop block or the rectangular nut you are measuring to. You'll get the hang of it.

[BlindHandyMan] Files page suggestion
Hi all. It seems to me that it might be helpful if there were files added to the Files Page that contain some of the information that is frequently sought here, regarding where to buy specialized tools. For instance, The subject of where to buy the following things have come up recently. Things like the Clickrule, Rotomatic, talking multimeter, talking tape measure, , and many more items that are either specialized for the blind or extremely blind friendly. Maybe a file could be added for each item, as it comes up on the list and would be there for all , for future reference. For example, there could be a file entitled "Where to buy the Clickrule". The body of the file would then contain the appropriate information. Another one could be "Where to buy a talking multimeter". And so forth. Another file that might be worthwhile is our current discussion talking about the pros and cons of the Clickrule and the Rotomatic. It would always be there for future reference and we wouldn't have to rewrite it each time the subject comes up. People could be referred to the Files Page for, at least, a first reference. I realize this would take time for someone to do, but it seems to be frequently asked info and might be worth the effort. It would be information specifically geared toward us blind guys, too. Now, please don't anyone get all upset over this suggestion. It is simply a suggestion and nothing more. Thanks-- Mickey -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] ideal tool and equipment shop
I had a similar experience back in about 1975 at our local high school. The instructor was being paid to run a class on behalf of the Community College out of Timmins only back then there was no question about signing a waver. There was a lot of conversation going on behind my back I didn't know about and some sort of arrangement made that did not include me in any of the negotiations, when it was put to me it was pretty well an ultimatum. That is the short version it is a much longer story including that at the time I was providing treatment for a highschool student of that same teacher for fingers amputated by the table saw in that very shop. Obviously everyone had an emotional stake in the event, in the end I had to drop it or the instructor would refuse to run the class and that was no way for me to make friends in a small town of around 4,000 at the time. To this day it has left me with a certain truth, sighted people cut fingers off and step in front of automobiles and fall out of buildings and all sorts of things. Is it reasonable to demand that we, as blind persons must exceed their performance standards? Janet and I are more likely to be injured as pedestrians just because we walk a lot, law of averages! That is independent of any other variables. In the end it always comes down to the attitude of inclusion, it is there or it is not. We cannot prove anything to anyone unwilling to be taught. Of course that teacher didn't want me to cut any fingers off and neither did I. The very fact that it already happened to someone in his class and under his supervision did not make it apply to me, he was a fifteen year old kid! I did have to concede one point, that moving about I might put others at risk, maybe bumping into a board sticking out from a machine, something like that. I don't know how to argue a point like that but in the end it wasn't about good or poor arguments.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] click ruler or rototmatic ruler
Better is a difficult thing to judge here. The click ruler is quite a bit quicker to set in the range of an accurate setting and it can be fairly quick to count clicks to a refined measure however you are limited to 16ths of an inch which is plenty for many purposes. There is, in my experience, some play within the click stop though and for precise measurements this may be unacceptable. The rotary measure can be very accurate, by including fractions of a turn you can get easily to 64ths and less however spinning the nuts, particularly toward the gross measure takes time and counting revolutions is more laborious than counting clicks. It is quite a long time since I used the click rule, they may be improved over the four or so intervening decades. Until recently that improved accuracy didn't matter all that much to me but now that I am back to more cabinetry work and my skill improves I find I want that better accuracy even at the cost of a little speed. I should probably have both rules but the price! Hope this helps.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Files page suggestion
Good idea all right I agree. The problem is I don't have any of those posts saved locally but if anybody else does please forward them directly to me for editing and subsequent posting up on the files page. That would be a lot quicker then me having to plow through the archives pages even with the fact they are so accessible. I like this idea very much, good thinking thank you. David Ferrin personal email address [EMAIL PROTECTED] Consciousness is that annoying time between naps. - Original Message - From: Mickey Fixsen To: Blind Handyman Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2006 6:26 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Files page suggestion Hi all. It seems to me that it might be helpful if there were files added to the Files Page that contain some of the information that is frequently sought here, regarding where to buy specialized tools. For instance, The subject of where to buy the following things have come up recently. Things like the Clickrule, Rotomatic, talking multimeter, talking tape measure, , and many more items that are either specialized for the blind or extremely blind friendly. Maybe a file could be added for each item, as it comes up on the list and would be there for all , for future reference. For example, there could be a file entitled "Where to buy the Clickrule". The body of the file would then contain the appropriate information. Another one could be "Where to buy a talking multimeter". And so forth. Another file that might be worthwhile is our current discussion talking about the pros and cons of the Clickrule and the Rotomatic. It would always be there for future reference and we wouldn't have to rewrite it each time the subject comes up. People could be referred to the Files Page for, at least, a first reference. I realize this would take time for someone to do, but it seems to be frequently asked info and might be worth the effort. It would be information specifically geared toward us blind guys, too. Now, please don't anyone get all upset over this suggestion. It is simply a suggestion and nothing more. Thanks-- Mickey -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Files page suggestion
I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to say anything since I don't intend to do it. BTW, I will soon begin constructing my version of the Norm Abrams Deluxe Router table. I intend to keep a cassette machine to hand and describe the cut plan, the sequence and the project as it progresses. There may be Copyright issues but I don't think I'll ask.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Harbor Freight, a good tradeoff
I bought a small compressor from them last year and have been pleased with it. I recently purchased a hose reel on ebay. Its not the self winding model but was cheap and is very sturdhy and is much better than messing with the hose.

And, my wife I believe was going to buy me one for Xmas. Yesterday though, I decided I could save money and really be happier buying a compressor, which I've also been whining about not having. So, after I got the "clearance" from my wife, I checked around a bit and finally bought a small relatively inexpensive one from Harbor Freight. I was able to get the compressor, hose, coupling set, blow gun, 3/8 drill and 3/8 air ratchet for about $160.00, and that includes shipping. And, since I saved us so much money, I'm going to have another 30 amp line put on the breaker box in the basement, which is something else I've wanted for a while.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Driving and Flying.
Hi Tom, Even in that analogy, you run into a problem, because they aren't black and white any longer, are they? You run into weird colours in telephone wires, and don't even get me started on three ring circus wire, they can come in 346 different colours of the rainbow. My God, I think I'll just keel over and die, who the heck can live in this crappy sight dependant world? Certainly not me, although, I have to admit, some of the intimate stuff is a great deal better, now that I'm blind, oh, well, maybe I'll stick around for another millennium.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Deluxe Router Table
Hi Dave, I had one of my daughters who has an interest in building and more, is now a Master of Education in vision impaired teaching to comment the plans so more sense could be made of the cut plans for the sheet goods and so on. I must touch up the formatting and transcribe into braille. I might, for fun, submit something to The New Yankee when it is done along with a request that on the Video, he include more commentary including the sizes he is cutting. He does it all except that, I assume on the television show to keep people from just writing it down and not bothering to buy the plans but once you have purchased it, what would be the harm? It could probably be done at time of shooting the programme and then just edited out. I expect I'll get started when we get back from Houston.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] click ruler or rototmatic ruler
Hi Mickey, It sounds like both these devices take a little effort to get a measurement. Which of the two would you say is faster to use? With most of the things I do, I'm willing to sacrifice accuracy in favor of speed. Thanks. Take care, Ed Przybylek At 06:00 PM 10/19/2006, you wrote: >Rob, > >There really is not a "better".
