To install a screw or bolt in a hard to reach place, stick it on your screw driver or socket with Blue-Tac, the stuff teachers use to stick stuff on just about anything. It's not as gooey as gum, is stickier than gum, cleans up very easily and is re-usable for a while. It has scads of other uses as well.

You can also stick a small magnet to the side of the screw driver blade. This will make the blade magnetic and hold steel screws in place on the end of the screw driver till you get them started. Then simply pull the magnet off the blade and you are back to normal.

Or, for a bolt, put a blade of grass, piece of paper or whatever across the head and then put it in the socket, that should hold it snug enough to get it in where it needs to go. When you take the wrence off, the holder will go away.

i had a problem once with my last machine and ended up fashioning a filter from pantyhose, worked great. my legs got cold after that.

oh yeah another tip. panty hose under the jeans. serves several purposes.

Never put your diving wet suit on without first puting on you panty hose

I thought men Invented pantyhose just to aggrivate woman Grin

You are the first man I have ever herd of wearing pantyhose under their pants, so tell me sluggo dosent just make you feel womanly Grin

well of course. i just happen to be with a group of twentysomthing girls when the subject of legshaving came up they thought they could make me squirm, i pull up pant leg to show a nearly hairless white leg, they just hated me, the all had to feel how smooth they were. after that 5 episodes of grey's and a pillow fight... NOT...............

No doubt. Brake cleaner is some really scary stuff. A lot of the stuff we use regularly is bad stuff (with a potential to be REALLY bad).

But then, Im so sensitive to chemicals, I wont spray a brake cleaner or anything like that unless I can do it outside or hit it & run outside. So, even tho I have no MIg & therefore no argon, I still wont be getting anything like that hot, Ill stay clear till its all evaporated.

Over the years a few of my pliers have had the rubber grips wear out . You can replace them with a peice of 3/8 automotive gas line. Use soapy water or hair spray as a lubricant to slide them on.

Here's a "red-neck" tip for replacing a lost handlebar end cap. Use the bottle cap off your favorite adult beverage!

I lost one of my stock end caps and couldn't see paying $5 for a replacement. So until I decide to upgrade the grips, I discovered (by happy accident) that a cap from my adult beverage fit loosely over the end of the bar and didn't interfere with the throttle grip.

To tighten the fit, I put the bottle cap in a hose clamp and tightened it down a little at a time until it fit very tightly. Then cleaned the end of the bar and inside of cap with alcohol, applied a thin bead of adhesive caulk to the inside of the cap and popped it on. After 24 hours its as snug as a bug! This worked so well, I made it a matching set.

Best thing is.... if you do happen to lose it, replacements can be easily acquired!

Have you tried a champagne cork ?

Costs nothing, can be taper-cut to size with a penkinife and looks like a million dollars !

In High School, we wore panty hose under our football uniforms during those late season freezing playoff games in November. Worked great! Kept you warmer and very flexible under the pads. Wink
