    The not-so-handy handyman and other randomness

    I also spent the day in my workshop, after I cut the grass, did the weedeating, etc. I also had a good day. I made a set of steps for the old dog across the street so she can get onto her mommie's bed. And I made a stool for Maggie so she can get onto the sofa. She's also getting old and the...

    Yip, stem saam. Gewoonlik sit hulle dam n "mushroom" prop in van die binnekant af. Dan is die band properly gefix.

    Thanks, everyone, for the congrats and well wishes on the promotion. I am already feeling the extra workload, I only just got done working now, at 8pm. And I started at 7am. Tomorrow will be more of the same, with no chance of respite in the foreseeable future. But I will do this, and make a...

    I would, except that with the legs so far apart if I build a frame to connect the legs then I will lose a lot of storage capacity under the machine. Right now I have a bunch of stuff that I store between the legs, and if I join them together I will lose that functionality. But, you just made me...

    We have been in the same premises since beginning of September last year.

    So Mrs Zog is with her mom in Germany, and I'm home with the dogs. Last week at the training I was told that when the merger of the two branches I am at finally happens completely on the 3rd June I will be the GM of both branches. So I go from having 7 staff under me, to having 18. And my...

    I was standing in the gas station convenience store today, waiting in line to buy a lotto ticket, when I noticed the pic on the front of these chips... They looked just like the good old Big Korn Bites from many years ago in SA... So I bought a pack. Opened up the pack at work... Yup...

    I bet they would be upset. But most solar systems are installed by Companies around here, and I'm sure that they have systems in place. One of the big things about solar here is actually feeding power back into the grid during the day. Most homes with solar don't have batteries to charge, so...

    Each State is different. Blue states are more rigid in getting "Licensed Contractors" to do work in your home. The red states are more lenient. With Florida, I can do just about anything in my home myself. The only time I may get a hassle is if the insurance assessor comes to inspect and finds...

    A Strong Back: The Adventures of Tom Mc Sherry

    I remember from long ago that acidic foods are bad for things like gout, arthritis, and joint pain. Cut out things like citrus and tomatoes, and drink lots of water to assist in filtering out the toxins from your kidneys. I have very bad pain in my right hand, a combination of the Du Preytens...

    Nope. The way I see it, because there is an outlet and a plug, it is just like an extension cord - temporary. ;) But that outlet outside will have a second use. I plan to use it to plug in my genny when we lose power after a hurricane. I already have a second 50A plug, I just need to connect...

    I promised some pics of what I have been busy with. Some background. I have power in my workshop out back, but it isn't great. If I run the big shop vac and the table saw at the same time it trips the breaker after a few minutes. So I am limited in what I can do. Some time ago I scored a length...

    I remember driving a range rover many years ago for a launch. It had adaptive cruise control and automatic braking. It was awesome to experience. Only negative I had was you couldn't set the cruise control over 193km/h. So I set it at 192, then keyed the toggle up. IIRC I could then get it up to...
