Turn a tiny daybed into a roomier, more comfortable sleeping spot. Connecting the pop-up trundle under the daybed with the top of the bed requires a foam piece to cover the gap. A single king-sized sheet helps to tie the two twin-sized mattresses together. This works because the length of the king-sized mattress is equal to double the width of the daybed mattresses, and the width of the king-sized mattress equals the length of the daybed mattresses.
How to Make a Water Level. Water levels have been used for centuries. They're cheap, easy to make, very accurate and allow a person working alone to determine levels over large distances.
By taking advantage of basic physics (the fact that water always seeks its own level), you can make a level that will be as accurate as anything you could buy.
Making a water level Start with a plastic bucket and a length of clear plastic tube - 1/4 inch or 3/8 inch in diameter.
Electric rope, also called poly wire, consists of synthetic, nonconductive filaments woven together with several very fine stainless steel wires. The wires carry the electric charge, while the white or brightly-colored synthetic filaments increase the diameter and, consequently, the visibility of the fence. Electric rope is more prone to breakage than metal wire of comparable diameter. When it snaps, splice it either by tying it into a knot or by using a double-post electric rope splicer.
From the genus Dalbergia, rosewood is a tight-grained wood that’s commonly used for creating small-scale craft projects, such as jewelry boxes. Rosewood is a firm favorite among guitar makers due to its oily texture, which allows the fingers to glide across the fret board. In most circumstances the color of rosewood is naturally dark brown. Although the color can't be altered significantly, it is possible to darken it with stain, which can make it closely resemble ebony.
Chipboard refers to board which consists of wood chips, wood shavings and other comparable materials. It is a cheap alternative to standard wood material for building furniture and room dividers. One of the drawbacks, however, is its unsightly and textured appearance.
Luckily, you can cover up an unsightly chipboard wall. Chipboard can be replaced with nicer cuts of wood, though this is not always an option. Fortunately, an unsightly chipboard wall can be covered with paint.
T8 lamps in a parabolic louver troffer provide evenly distributed lighting. T8 and T12 are two types of fluorescent lamps, which also are called fluorescent tubes. T12 lamps were first used with magnetic ballasts. Newer technology allows them also to be used with electronic ballasts, which weigh less than the old ballasts and create less noticeable light flicker. T8 lamps all use electronic ballasts made especially for this size lamp.
A split-rail fence is an inexpensive way to create a light-duty fence. Split-rail fences can mark a boundary, create a rustic look or hold livestock that is too large to fit through the fence.
A split-rail fence can add a rustic touch to your property. Many fencing companies will create and sell the posts and rails so that you can assemble a split-rail fence, but you can also make them yourself with just a few tools.
The lamps in BenQ projectors have a limited lifespan, and need replacement after approximately 2000 hours of use. To keep track of the amount of lamp hours used, BenQ designed their projectors with a lamp hours counter to monitor the use of the lamp. When a new lamp is placed in the projector, you need to reset the lamp hours counter to ensure proper monitoring of your lamp.
Turn on the projector after replacing the lamp.
Wood stain is a type of paint that is used to color wood by soaking pigment into wood fibers with a solvent and then having it set and bind to the wood. Stain works by saturating color into the wood itself, rather than applying a layer of color over the surface of wood.
What is wood stain? The primary purpose of stain is to color wood, while offering certain protections as a result of the coloring and absorption of the stain deep into the wood.
FREON(tm) refridgerent (HCFC-22) was widely used to cool refrigerators until 2004, when the United States slowly started reducing the use of the chemical due to its adverse effect on the ozone layer. Today, most refrigerators are cooled with tetrafluoroethane (HFC-134a), which acts in a similar manner to FREON(tm) refridgerent. The refrigerant capacity varies depending on the size and model of the refrigerator.
Refrigerant Charge Properly maintained refrigerators rarely run out of coolant.
