[BlindHandyMan] replacing a ice maker in a fridge
Hi, Could someone tell me if it's possible to replace a ice maker that's in a refrigerator? If so, would it be possible for a blind person to do themselves? I need to get another one but I'm not if I should get the same kind or not because I want one that makes smaller ice cubes. Will I be able to do this or will I have to get the same one like the one that's in there?

RE: [BlindHandyMan] sewer problem
Hi, I'm also running into the exact same problem. I use to have a big tree in front of my house and a big one at the back of my house. I had them both cut down but there's a big stump still sitting at the front which they wouldn't touch because they said that it's to close to my house. So what we're doing is killing the stump and digging it out ourselves. We're just going to get the stump as low as we can get it and try to contact a contractor to remove the rest and rebuild the dirt under there. That tree roots was pushing my basement wall in at one time but when we bought the house we had the seller pay for some still beams to be put in to keep that wall from moving again.. When we called the city, they told us that there was some branches sitting down by the main street and our street that's causing the floods. Believe it or not they told us to poor some bleach down in all of the sinks, tub, shower and the sewer drain every once in a while to keep it clean. Now we only gets floods when we have a really big storm.

Called the city and had them clean out their side, but the problem persisted. Had to call the plumber and pay about $95 to have them clean the system. Now, 3 months later, the backup is back. Both times, the sewer backs up into the shower. Both toilets are clogged. The weird part is that the sinks are not clogged. I don't want to have to call the plumber every 3 months to have them clean the system, but if that's the best thing to do, I will. I want to know what could be causing the clog in the first place and how to prevent it. I do have trees in both the front and back yard. This includes a sago palm which is practically against the front of the house. One other thing about this clog. If you wait a while, the water in the shower goes away. If you wait long enough, you can flush the toilet a few times before the water returns. I'm thinking about getting a snake so I can atempt to clear the line. Any thoughts or suggestions on this are appreciated. Shane

There is a mode for navigating in an automobile as well as on foot. My phone does Web, e-mail though I haven't yet figured that out, I play my Woodworking for the Blind magazines on it and could play music, there is a voice recorder, a note taker and I have a bluetooth keyboard about the size of a pack of cigarettes when folded up, there is a calculator and Adobe reader, Excel and a Word document reader and I am not sure what all else and it fits in my shirt pocket. I don't know yet how well I will be able to manipulate some of the controls once we get into real winter conditions, there was four or five inches of snow on the ground when I left this morning but I expect it will be pretty well gone by the morning. The GPS software is about $400 and the recommended matchbox sized bluetooth GPS receiver something like a hundred and fifty of course on top of the phone and talking software. So far though I don't know anyone using the system here in North America. I did experience the standard version in a taxi in England this spring and I was very impressed. Apparently it covers most of Europe very completely and in England at least even includes the location of speed traps and cameras. The British version has 20 million POIs (points of interest). I rather doubt there is particularly detailed information for more remote locations like this and we also have some holes in our cellular service which apparently can cause it some confusion when attempting to recalculate a route if you leave off of the originally plotted one. I am trying to discover if you can resolve this by having adjoining maps pre-loaded but don't think I have been able to describe what it means to have holes in cell service, people don't seem to believe the entire globe is not dotted with towers.

One nice feature that trekker has is the ability to map out a course either pedestrian or mobile. A few months ago I wanted to visit a friends parents to drop off something. All I had was the address. I was in the car and not near a computer to get a map. I just entered the address and we had turn by turn instructions right to the door. When walking down the street I learned about a Mac machine that I did not know existed. Trekker told me about it as I passed. Also with Trekker you can search for a point of interest and then create a talking map to it. Also you can create a poi like my dentist office with some instructions how to get into the office. If you have the maestro option you can take notes, read books or listen to music. I had no desire to do that however if I were still working I definitely would have that option.

When using Wayfinder Access navigation software, a wireless GPS receiver and a symbian enabled mobile phone we can bring you full freedom without the expense of a bulky package. PDA's are a very good business tool, however whilst walking or traveling you need something much more convenient that can be carried in your pocket.

Wayfinder, one of the Worlds most prominent satellite navigation software solution providers have partnered with the visually impaired community to produce Wayfinder Access. The worlds first bespoke navigation solution built specifically with the user group in mind, but importantly that works on a mobile phone and not a PDA. It boasts many impressive features primarily though the fact that it has been designed for the community user group in mind is though by far its biggest asset. Wayfinder Access comprises all the features that you would expect from a leading GPS software package, with a North American or European version currently available.

Don't be afraid to use some force on it, as it might take some force to break what ever is keeping the latch from unsticking. The problem is that you don't know if it's frozen or if it's rusted . Either way, that tapping should be able to release it enough that it'll pop. If you find that it won't budge, even after you've pounded it several times, try taking a blow dryer on it's hottest setting to the front of the hood, followed by some well pointed hot air through the front grill, aiming in an upward direction to see if you can release it. Another option is using a key de-icer on it. You can get these at any service station or hardware store. They often come with a small straw that you can insert in the groove where the latch is. Spray a liberal amount of the de-icer into the space with the straw and if it is frozen, this should work to melt it. If this doesn't work, try the WD-40 option spraying a liberal amount into the groove. Hope this helps.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Frozen car hood
Hi, Yes it's below 0 here. I think the latch or the cable to help pop the hood is frozen. There's no rust. It probably need oiling also. Otis Blue [EMAIL PROTECTED] BBS Press Service, Inc.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Accessible OBD-II unit
Hi, I rather have this product because your manual can't tell you why your check engine light is on. There's a lot of crooked auto shops out here you can't trust any of them. My car has been in the shop for about a week in a half. I had a head gasket changed and that only took one day but I'm having more problems now then when my car went into that shop. The engine light is on and they're trying to tell me once they do a tune up the light will go off. They did a tune up when they changed the head gasket. There were coolant getting into my oil so that's why I had to get that work done.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Accessible OBD-II unit
Hi, Other symptoms I see is when driving my father tells me that the car shakes and rattles when stopping at a light or something. And The car still over heats. Those are the only things I see. The only time I think the battery was disconnected was when they did the head gaskets. I can give that a try. When he says a tune up he means changing the oil again just in case some left over coolant was still getting into the oil. They need to put my original spark plugs that I purchase into my car because they're the only one that the manufacture suggest to use with the car. They supposedly put double platinum spark plugs in there and I think that's what making my car shake and rattle when ever we stop at a light. I need those AC Delco's because that's all I ever put in my car. I also notice that I need to change my main belt because it's a little worn. This is a 1998 Buick Century.

Hi, Well I no for sure that I need these spark plugs because every time I put something else in there I get something weird wrong with my car.

Before they put those spark plugs in my car I couldn't even tell if my car was running. Now I can tell for sure.

RE: [BlindHandyMan] Accessible OBD-II unit
Hi, Like I said before I tried other spark plugs on my car and my car didn't perform right because I had similar problems that I'm having now. So I do no that AC Delco works the best for my car. Also there are accessible car diagnosing machines out there for the visually impaired because a couple of years ago when I went to this tech collage here in Wisconsin for an evaluation for adaptive equipment, they gave us a tour around the building and they had a auto shop where blind people was working on cars and the instructor was speaking over the phone to someone about another person trying to come back to the school so that he can get his DVR counselor to purchase him a diagnostic machine because he need one at a shop that his family owned. Another person asked was this person was blind and he told us yes he was and we went on asking how a blind person was able to use a diagnostic machine with out being able to see. That's just like when we went into the metal shop they had a CNC pad in braille which I never knew they had. If I did I would have kept taking that up after I went blind back in 1995.

Yes absolutely put the type plugs in there that you have always used. Oil change at this point is a good idea. Make sure that your thermostat is working properly. Also have them test the temp sending unit. Your fan is electric so make sure it is coming on when the car gets up to operating temperature. You could have a bad fan or a bad sencer. Also you can not rule out a bad water pump. I would hope that since they had to drain the radiator that they would have flushed it. It is a good idea to flush out the fins on the radiator. You should do this from the back of the radiator with a garden hose. You might want to do this when the car is cooled down. sorry to state the obvious but make sure the coolant level is correct and check for any leaks. and last but not least make sure that the radiator cap is the proper pressure and is working correctly. Hope this helps. You may want to write down these things and bring them to your mechanic so you don't forget any thing. If you have a 3.8 v6 which is likely one common drivability issue with them is that the motor will oscillate at idle. what I mean is the RPM's will fluctuate. If this is the case after every thing else is working properly you should test the fuel presher regulator is working properly. This is a very simple test. any mechanic can do. Let me know how this turns out.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] cordless screwdrivers
Hi Clifford, Do you have the model number for that Milwaukee? I actually live here in Milwaukee Wisconsin and I use to work at the company that made that screwdriver. It's called Milwaukee Electric Tools . I probably can get one cheaper there if I knew the model. I want something that's small to use around the house and something for everyday use with lot's of power to use in my shop Right now I'm looking at a bosch/PS10-2 cordless screwdriver if I can find it at lower price. on Tuesday 12/5/2006 06:43 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: >Dear Otis: >I own several cordless screwdrivers the larger of which also works >as a drill.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] cordless screwdrivers
Hi, I already have a cordless drill that works great. I want a lite weight cordless screwdriver to carry with me when doing little jobs that I won't need a drill for.

[BlindHandyMan] CNC machines
Hi, I have a question about using a CNC machine as a blind person. Is it possible for a blind person to use a CNC machine? I was learning how to use one of these before I went blind about 12 years ago and I still would like to continue. I understand you can run one of these from a computer setup. That's the way I started learning and then I start learning using some type of touch pad which probably could be labeled. Please let me no if there's anyone on this list using one of these machines.
