The one thing we were lucky to get with our kitchen is the lazy susan.
The reason why we have had no real problems with things getting stuck
is the curved back inside the unit that seems to keep things from
hanging it up. Now of course most cases the reason stuff gets stuck in
there is do t
Congratulations Ray on a job well done. Now, at any time you can
modify or adapt as you wish your new unit which indeed makes you
mobile. consider a patent and again congratulations. Lee

Betsey, as to the " Lazy susans". well we have four such devices
in this kitchen and I think they are a great space saver. these units
were installed in 1979 and are in good shape. I might have suggested
a bit highr lip on the edges but other than that I think they are
worth the m
I have a Freud, fixed based router that does a
good job. It uses 1 wrench to change bits.

Good morning Betsy,
My sister had a device in one of her kitchens which sounds something like what
you want. It was a platform, in this case probably 16 by 12 inches mounted on a
series of levers and springs not unlike those you might see for supporting a
computer keyboard under a work surface.
It comes to my mind that what a person needs, if they have the space, is a
rotating work station simmilar to those for tools. You could mount things like
mixers and other appliances to it and rotate them when the need arises and
maybe even have one of the surfaces free to use as an additional c

Betsy,
OOPS, you responded to Mycell on list. *GRIN*.
anyway, the newer lazy susans, like others have said, have a board
wrapping around the trays so it is difficult for stuff to fall off.
Although, the 3/4 circular shape does make it inconvenient for anything of
any size to fit in the thing.
Looking around I found this site. It has the review of the porter cable
router and links to reviews of dewalt, craftsman, rigid and a few others. I
found it to be an interesting read.

Oh, what a great idea, if only I had the room. This kitchen is in the
middle of my house, and when they designed it, I wasn't around then,
they made it so that it is very open and has big arch ways going from
the entry-way into the kitchen and also going from the kitchen into
the livingroom.

My oven still lets off a burnt odor, and I don't know how to get it out.
I'll scrape at whatever is left there again, a little later on.
How does the Easy Off work?
Thanks.

Hi,
Does anyone know what TV Ears are? They're a system used to transmit the
signal from the television, to a listener, via headphones, so others will
not be disturbed by the noise.
I recently purchased a unit for my fiance, and he is wondering if it'll
work, with his talking book machine! I'

just get a cord with the female jacks at one end and an earphone jack at the

take it to radio schlock and they should have the right cord.

you just spray it on and let it sit over night and some sit up in a
few hours. then you just wipe it out with a damp sponge. it will take
the worst of things out and leave oven smelling fresh. Just remember
not to turn on the oven until wiped out or it will go bang!\

How about a moveable work island. you can move them anywhere and have
the space you need to work on where you need it.

Well, I finally had time to unpack and test out the palm nailer I finally
got last week from Harbor Freight. I really like it.
AS has been said here, you can really screw up a nail if you don't start it
off straight, so here's a question.
I'd think a piece of pipe or tubing the diameter of
Betsy,
I've been reding the comments, and since my son and I just finished
installing vinyl flooring in our kitchen, I'll offer some comments.
As for the lazy susan, our corner base cabinet has a round back that keeps
anything from falling off. Works great.
Your old vinyl was probably installed wi
Aloha Tom,
Thank you for the thoughtful complete message. Unfortunately, there
is no underlayment under our current vinyl.
When we had vinyl laid in part of my office and in our entry way
recently, they put down about four layers of self-leveling cementish
stuff. The vinyl feels quite level and
I just stand the nail on end and drop the nailer over it. The key is light
pressure until it starts. Come to think of it, I never apply much pressure to
the nailer itself. As long as it is pounding away that has always been enough.
If you're wanting to start a nail with a hammer or don't like
Dale,
Is this similar to the system you are talking about for a corner cabinet?

Hi Michael,
Well it could be but when I looked at the details page they mention birch
shelves and I don't remember that. Also a double action which I don't recall
seeing, seems to me the one I saw you open the door and there is a rounded tray
behind the door which, when you swing the door open
the lazy's I have had were in a tube back. There was no where for an item
to go. If it was thin enough to fall it would fall to the level below.
The were also corner items, and the "L" front was the back, which was
removable via screws. Then the unit was turned to "L" in front and the

I'm saving your previous, Riobi email for reading. Thank you for that.
This Craftsman has a press-in slide switch.
It disconnects power and locks the rotor. I know because as a dummy I
squeezed the trigger and nothing happened. Good as it is a borrow. I mean
not a buzz and no spin.

that's what I've found with the 8 amp Skill. Through 3/4 HDF, never a slow

I think the 6 amp Craftsman was challenged through 5/8 kilm dried knotty

Hello Dale;
Thank You.
We are thinking of creating a clayrun off slope, and from what I read
here, the farther it extends, the better.
We are going down 5ft.
Would you recommend clay against the membrane instead of cement then?
If we were to tamp clay or cement under the foundation, draw the barri

Here is some of what I have found at Lee Valley. My default is Canadian

additional shipping charges and to Hawaii there are probably additional charges.

Once you patch the wall and footing I don't see any advantage to using any more
cement. You stick the membrane to the wall well enough to keep it there while
you back fill, the fill will hold the material to the wall. Just drape it down
to the bottom of the hole and allow it to spread over the f
Aloha Dale,
Wow! This is great! I have a couple of drawers that I spent ages

I could slide back about seven inches to expose part of the drawer
underneath, or I could lift the tray out completely to find things in
the back. I
