Well Jennifer, you can get a "quick connect" assembly that will thread onto
the faucet threads as the female connector and the end of the hose as the
"male" connector. You can get them the other way as well, but if the "male"
connector is attached to the faucet it won't offer much in the way of

Depending on the type of handle you should be able to take the screw out of
the middle of the handle and pull it off. It does not have to be held on
with a screw to use it .
Just hide the handle and when you need to use the water your self just take
the handle out with you and slide it on the fosse

Mine will agitate with the door open, it will not spin dry if the door is
open. I can hold the top of the agitator real easy in the agitator mode.

Hi Robert,
If you've ever seen a bow and arrow set-up, the bow is one long curved rod
of wood, with a string pulled taut so as to bend the wooden rod.
Now picture a straight round rod of wood, anywhere between six inches to a
foot long. You have another straight flattened piece of wood that si

Dale,
I have also read several articles that say when using composite decking
you need to put the joists closer together since the composite will tend
to sag, especially in really hot sunny areas.
Also, if you look around, there are now stains and treatments for

Hi Jennifer,
This idea isn't worth the trouble. The only warm water you'll get is the
water that's in the hose before you open the tap. This water has had time
to be heated by the sun. As soon as you turn on the tap, the water will be
flowing through the hose too quickly to absorb any heat. I

I do not have a pool, but I heard a tip for setting one up. Borrow as many
