  have soaked it in hot water and soap, but didn't seem to get good results. 
  Any other ideas to clean out the clogging of metal particles and such.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] water pressure low in shower?

2010-08-29 Thread Trouble
That knob you turn to get the shower head 
spraying water is the problem. it never was the 
head at all. Remove that knob and take the whole 
thing to hardware store. They can match you up 
with what you need and only what you need. When 
it comes to water parts size is important and 
they can't guess there or you get more trips back and nothing that works right.

[BlindHandyMan] Re: new door knob to big for the whole?

2010-08-29 Thread Gil Laster
If you have a hole saw drill attachment, cut the proper size hole in a scrap 
piece of wood to use as a template.  Clamp the template to the door, centered 
over the knob hole that is too small,  This will guide the hole saw as the door 
is cut.

Subject: [BlindHandyMan] new door knob to big for the whole?

Hi, i have a wooden closet door that i bought a new knob for. However
i can't get the two sides of the knob to line up because the actual
whole is not cut large enough cause i guess the other knob is smaller.
Anyway what can I use to file the door down a bit so i can put the new
knob on? Its actually hollow inside the door so i imagine that it wont
be to hard to do something with it. I just didn't wanna start cutting
anything out of the nice little smooth round whole without knowing
what is the best tool to use for it to still be smooth and round.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Re: new door knob to big for the whole?

2010-08-29 Thread Dale Leavens
I have a special hole saw mandrel which allows two saws to be mounted. The 
inner smaller one is selected to fit the present hole while the larger outer 
saw is selected to cut the larger size. In this way the smaller saw guides the 
larger one.

Available from Lee Valley, where else?

There can be a bigger problem though, that being the length of the latch. 
simply enlarging the hole may force the latch further toward the edge of the 
door and extend it beyond the edge of the door.
