It certainly helps when you have a working knowledge of tools and where to look for information. I used to be that way. Now I can't even change a tire. So I am heavy into preventive maintenance being done, and keeping contacts with repair people whom I feel I can trust. I've quit beating myself up for not being able to fix stuff now. My reward comes from keeping something going and getting the right repairs done.
winds have been wild these past few months. Anything not fastened down might just blow away. Anything dead in a tree will be blown away and is always a danger to be around. I had a hemlock that twisted, broke off in the middle of the tree, lifted up and then just dropped to the ground. From what I could see, the tree looked healthy, but I didn't get up close to examine the brake.
When we moved into this house 40 years ago, we bought a matching set of washer and dryer. We have replaced the washer a time or two but the dryer still works. I had to replace the belt once.
Washers and dryers are notorious for being difficult to work on. Also, to add to this, there's a lot of sharp metal edges that will cut you inside the nice shiny smooth exteriors.
Just clarifying. I hope you're not trying to say what it shows you said. There's certainly stuff I don't know, but I try to help others out as much as I can, based on what I do know.
Every time I hear this these days I think to myself "Oh boy, who's doing what, where in this world, and when are the rest of us going to have to pay the price for it?" Then I immediately have to see what pops up in the Google feed...
yes it is what i said...you seem to have the answers for everything although lots of them are not correct.you seem to regurgitate stuff you have read on the internet and then post it on here as your own. so yes my opinion stands.
Harsh Even if that was true (and I'm not saying it is, at all) don't you give a guy any points for taking the time to look stuff up to try and help somebody...I mean hey, the guy is basically a parts/materials researcher by trade so I'd think the quality of said research would be of better quality then your average keyboard jockey. And what's it matter if its original content? There are a few different topics that come up around here from time to time that when I post my opinion, which is based on my personal experience that comes from bending wrenches professionally since since 1988 or so (other than 5 years in sales...but even then there was still part time wrenching) and on a couple of these certain topics my experience seems to go against most everybody else's experience with the same product/situation...so in that scenario, since I seem to be the outlier, is my first hand experience any better than reading what the consensus is online and then reposting it?
Disagree SKEETER McCLUSKEY I once posted a pic of a snowmobile I own doing 30 mph anyways (one of kids riding) a horrible phone pic! Horkn asked me if it was 90~92 ski doo formula plus! It was/is. The decals aren’t even on cowling; doubt cowl is even original to sled.
