    some tips from an electrician for reusing those ceiling fans be sure to use a metal box and mount straight to the beams with a box, you can even use a safety chain to ensure that they don't fall on someone , you can also use a 3/4 inch pipe as an extension pole to bring them down closer you just need to drill a couple of holes and use the hardware from the pipe it came with, they would look good if you painted them white , try not to mix up all the blades and use a scale to weigh and balance them and avoid wobblers, it's all about control and you can put several or all of them on a motor speed control, they really do make a difference in the winter and summer, provided you get up there and change the blade directions I would recommend you even try some nicer brands out there like Hunter, when it comes to fans he is the man, lol, like your dad never let anything go to waste

    • @mrromantimothy
      @mrromantimothy Před měsícem

      Here's a technical explanation without fans you'll have a big pocket of stagnant air in the top of your building, a Hot Pocket the hotter it is the faster heat will dissipate through your insulation, having ceiling fans that will break up that pocket and mix it up with the air below that is cooler will give you added comfort and efficiency and less heat Loss.

    That was actually a scribing coumpass as it was symetrical points used to mark layout dye pre N.C. "Old School Machining". The inside and outside devices (called calipers) have the points that either curve away from (used to measure inside diamiters) or towards the work to measure outside diamiters. the measurements take a feel to get accurate measurements.

I looked and we had gone through some grasshoppers. I got an idea. I mixed bbq sauce and mustard. I took a plastic spoon and flicked the mix on the front of van and specifically where the rock hit. Took it back and during inspection the guy says “ man the bugs are bad this year”. Wife got upset at my deceitful idea. I used the money saved to buy lunch.

    I thought you were to take the critter inside the trailer and go to the truck and use them to pull you out. What were they hauling? Pigs. That’d be funny to come up on, pigs hooked up to the front of a stuck truck! 😂
