Re: [BlindHandyMan] Furnace filters
Hi David and others.. I have a Train furnace and air conditioner together and the filter I use is a 25 by 25 a special one that Train provided. It opens up like a book has a hook to lock it when closed it's in a metal frame and once open then it unfolds out for cleaning which they said it can be washed off with water or use a vacuumed hose and blow it out. Hope that's helpful to you I haven't had to clean it but once about every 6 months but that might be too I have a air purifier installed as well on the unit and keeps it pretty clean very little dust and debree collected on it..

Re: [BlindHandyMan] blind techniques
Well as a blind female and should I need to have some major repairs done which I do have some patio issues hanging over my head and I asked this list for some info pertaining to what I needed to do to have it fixed and I received a ton of excellent information on the subject.. I of course will not do the repairs myself, but I like being aware of what it takes to have the job done correctly and the tools/supplies are all visual products but least I will know if I'm getting a good deal on the job rather than being in the dark and having to go alone with whatever is suggested at the time when it could be a less expensive way for me.. I appreciate the wealth of info that is provided on this list many many things I never knew of. So as far as I'm concerned I think this list is well worth the efforts all is put forth into and the researching of said products weather blind or sighted do it is irrelevant..

[BlindHandyMan] Tree Trimming
I am $70 poorer today but at least my trees growing over the top of my house and I have a 2 story and over the top of my patio cover as well all in the backyard where this tree was providing alittle bridge for some pesky acrobatic ants cousins to the carpenter ants this is not a joke..were coming into my upstairs bathroom dead..according to the pest control company last year who advised me to give them $300 to rid me of these pests and for one year did not only when it was winter did they disappear..so when the time came again I was asked if I wanted to renew my contract and I said "no" since the problem was still occuring. I was then told..if I cut back my tree it would prevent them from gaining access into the house! Well let me tell you it took much much effort on my part not to give this guy a piece of my mind!! The very company who a year ago took $300 to rid me of them and now tells me to cut the tree back! Well thanks to my gardener and a product called..Pruneing Seal which is found at Ace Hardware in either a spray or a paint it on seals the cut limbs from ever growing back.. It cost $5.96 and doesn't take much..a friend of mine had done it to his trees 4 years ago and the tree limbs have never grown back.

hahah I thought FS was fixin' that problem but guess not.. Well knock on wood..so far I haven't hit those yet. I did one time just alittle but some of them didn't do anything so maybe it's not hooked up or I wonder if it's connected somehow to the monitor and the monitor speaker part is not plugged up at all just the monitor but it's off most of the time so maybe that's why they don't work?

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Neighbor's Pets
hmm..don't think I want to trade pests there with you grins I'm alittle afraid to do the trap route fear of myself or my property I already feel as if I'm taken advantage of because I can't see and I already had a bit of an issue with this neighbor over another issue concerning our adjoining fence.. she has a couple of boys and one is around 11 and he likes to throw a ball across from his yard to mine and let family pooch chase it and sometimes his aim is wrong and it hits my trees and porch or garage door.. when I've called her left messages it clears up for a time then goes right back maybe I should threaten her to remove the pests as you suggest here.. I hate to do this as much as I hate the problem..I fear at some point in time there might be an incident that I might need her assistance and if I have threatened her beloved pets then I'm not going to get any help from her unlessshe's one of these real forgiving type people..

[BlindHandyMan] Neighbor's Pets
Hello List, Well yall may or may not be able to help me with this.. I have a front porch that extends the length of my house and 4 columns to support the roof overhang which I suspect that is why my neighbor's cats like to laze away the day on my bench on this porch and they have a dog too who likes to run back and forth in between the little bushes that sits in a row in front of the bench on the porch. I have asked my neighbor to better monitor her pets she works all day and leaves them outside to roam the neighborhood so my question is how can I rid myself of these pests. I like animals but just not unwanted ones..

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Expansion and Contraction Joint Fillers
Thank you. At least if I hire someone to fix this problem I'll have a bit of knowledge as to what they are referring to and know weather the best product is used for the job.. Hailley - Original Message - From: "Boyce, Ray" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Thursday, September 14, 2006 8:17 PM Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Expansion and Contraction Joint Fillers Hi EXPANSION <-> CONTRACTION JOINT FILLERS ASPHALT, FIBRE, CERAMAR FLEXIBLE FOAM, SPONGE RUBBER, CORK and SELF-EXPANDING CORK MINIMIZE STRESS DAMAGE AND ENHANCE THE PERFORMANCE CAPABILITIES OF CONCRETE WITH PROPER JOINTING TECHINQUES TO ACCOMODATE EXPANSION-CONTRACTION CYCLES. Concrete expands and contracts with temperature and moisture changes...as the temperature rises or the moisture content of the concrete increases, expansion takes place...as the temperature drops, the concrete will contract. The provision to accommodate movement at predetermined locations with proper joint applications, prevents the development of stresses that could rupture the concrete. Joint type and spacing will vary with each project according to the type of structure, climatic conditions and anticipated stresses in the concrete. The coefficient of thermal expansion in concrete is 0.055 per linear inch of concrete per degree Fahrenheit of temperature change yielding approximately .66 inch of movement per 100 feet with a 100ºF (38ºC) temperature range. To estimate expansion, multiply length in inches x number of degrees of anticipated temperature differential x 0.055. Use the resulting anticipated movement to determine correct thickness of the control joint and proper spacing for placement of the joint. Thinner joints (1/4", 3/8" or 1/2") (6.35mm, 9.53mm or 12.7mm) spaced at frequent intervals offer greater control than thicker joints spaced at greater intervals. The basic concept is to provide ample room for the concrete to expand and contract without creating damaging stresses and resultant cracking. Expansion and Contraction Joint Fillers Technical Description ASPHALT Expansion Joint Filler is composed of a blend of asphalts, vegetable fibers and mineral fillers formed under heat and pressure between 2 asphalt-saturated liners. It is waterproof, permanent, flexible and self-sealing. FIBRE Expansion Joint is composed of cellular fibers securely bonded together and uniformly saturated with asphalt to assure longevity. Fibre Expansion Joint is versatile, resilient, flexible and non-extruding. When compressed to half of its original thickness, it will recover to a minimum of 70% of its original thickness. CERAMAR® Flexible Foam Expansion Joint Filler is composed of a unique blend of isomeric polymers in a very small, closed-cell structure. Gray in color, CERAMAR is a lightweight, highly flexible and resilient material offering recovery qualities of over 99%. This mini closed-cell structure is virtually non-absorbent. It can be wrapped or formed around curved or circular surfaces. SPONGE RUBBER Expansion Joint is produced to a uniform thickness and density from gray-colored, top-quality, blown sponge rubber. It is easily compressed and has a recovery of 95% or more of the original thickness and a density of not less than 30 pounds per cubic foot (480.56 kg per cubic meter). CORK Expansion Joint Filler is produced from clean, selected, granulated cork bonded with a phenolic resin. It is highly resilient, will compress without extrusion and recover to 95% of its original thickness after 50% compression. SELF-EXPANDING CORK Expansion Joint is formed and compressed under heat and pressure to permit expansion up to 140% of original thickness after installation which permits the filler to compensate for concrete shrinkage. Normal humidity conditions after installation activate the self-expanding properties of the cork. ASPHALT FIBRE CERAMAR SPONGE RUBBER CORK SELF-EXPANDING CORK Typical Control Joint Installations Uses Asphalt Expansion Joint can be used in 80% of all control joint applications. It is ideally suited for joints in sidewalks, driveways, streets, single and multi-level floor slabs. Due to its unique self-sealing characteristic, no subsequent joint sealing is required. FIBRE Expansion Joint is ideal for use on highways, streets, airport runways, sidewalks, driveways, flatwork and scores of commercial and industrial applications. Refer to Data Sheet No. 320-F. Use SNAP CAP to install 1/2" (12.7mm) below the concrete surface and seal with #164, HI-SPEC ® or Cold-Applied SOF-SEAL ® for maximum protection from water infiltration, weathering and to assure proper performance. Refer to Data Sheet Nos. 220, 221, and 224. CERAMAR Flexible Foam Expansion Joint is gray in color and provides an excellent joint filler and back-up material for use in either horizontal or vertical applications where expansion and contraction movements must be accommodated. CERAMAR is compatible with all currently popu
Re: [BlindHandyMan] Cracking Check List
That was an interesting and informative read.. I live in Dallas, TX not aware of any place in TX that some shifting doesn't occur. I first noticed this a year ago when they decided to build right behind our houses and the unearthing and the vibrations alone made it feel as if we were having an earthquake. My windows even rattled. But we had an extremely hot and dry 2 summers in a row and despite the watering the ground cracked in many places in my backyard. I had to hook up two soaker hoses around the foundation of my house front and back as I had noticed my doors sticking and swinging back halfway. Since the construction behind me was also a contributing factor and the dryness I do think part of this based on the information listed here can partly be due to the soaker hose since it is very near this area. I usually ran it for a good 30 minutes to an hour a couple times a week. Now my doors are working properly, but the patio slab has increased it's gap away from the house about the same width as the soaker hose. It seems like the back door is no longer level to the slab I think there always was a slight step but it's most noticeable now..

[BlindHandyMan] Patio Gap
Hello, I have a small concrete patio slab in my backyard and due to extreme dryness and heat a gap the width of the slab has pulled apart from the house it is about a 2 inch space. I need to know what to do to reconnect it to the house?
