Re: [BlindHandyMan] Removing Splash Back Tiles
Ray, I have removed them with a wide putty knife, without much damage. In places where it is hard to get the knife in, I would gently break out one of the tiles.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Removing Splash Back Tiles
Ray, I used a cheap 4 putty knife. Put the knife flat against the wall on top of the tile and tapped it with a hammer. Worked very well, sometimes taking the top layer of paper off the sheetrock, but in no instance did it damage the sheetrock to the point it needed patching. All the glue seemed to stay on the tile. Only problem is the limited working distance between the top of the knife handle and the bottom of the wall cabinets.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Removing Splash Back Tiles
Hi Ray; i just use a flat pry bar and tap it flat against the wall against the tile. The bar wont break the wall, but the tile may pull a little. I did my kitchen when I moved into this house and the entire 11 by 20 foot kitchen was floor to ceiling tile. A friend walked into to it for the first time and said wow, this is the biggest shower I ever saw!

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Removing Splash Back Tiles
Ray, If it were me I would just remove the underlying sheet rock as well. It would be much less complicated and odds are you won't be able to remove the tiles without damaging the sheet rock anyway. It isn't that hard to replace sheet rock so you'd be ahead in the long run. And possibly you could replace the existing sheet rock with something better for the application such as concrete sheeting or at least water resistant sheet rock (green board). That's my suggestion for what it's worth!

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Emailing: Future Aids - Raised-Line Drawing Board.htm
Just an associated question, I have never found it very effective or efficient to try to follow lines or drawings or score marks with a saw. If deeply enough etched I can generally get the tip of a chisel accurately into it but otherwise, following with a saw and even planing down to it once really close I loose it in the natural grain. Following a scribe with a jig saw or scroll saw, can some of you really do that?

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Emailing: Future Aids - Raised-Line Drawing Board.htm
if you go really slowly, and don't mind go really slowly, you can give the saber saw little bursts, and keep checking and checking and do it. But that's an afternoon that requires at least a beer or two with dinner after. It doesn't hurt to set the speed of the saber saw low either.. additional advice, set the front guard of the machine as close to the blade as possible for slightly longer power on states. Rapidly ta ta ta tapping a rather think chisel around could do it if the work isn't thick. Less nerve racking that way. I'd start off that way as well to make the line really distinct after the scribe line is complete.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Emailing: Future Aids - Raised-Line Drawing Board.htm
Well what is nice about this raise drawing is the lines are raise so you can feel them on the paper so what I did is taped the paper to the board and with my small scroll saw I can follow the line. The scroll saw is a real small table type. Also with this small scroll saw I can actually touch the blade and will not get cut.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] to fret or to fretless
Scott, I don't think I'd try the wood powder and glue mix as a bat, it's likely you'll get it all over everything, I know I would GRIN I don't know about frett pullers, but if they're as I think they might be, they're strips of a contrasting material probably not as deep as the board that are glued into slits in the board. If they used hyde glue as they should have, then it'll break before the wood does and they'll be removable with a sharp chisel tap under the end. This chisel being exactly the width of the frett or maybe just a tiny bit smaller. If they were glued in with white glue, then a few drops of white vinegar dripped carefully onto the end of the joint may help soften the white glue so you can break the joint. It'll take great care but the finger board should be a pretty healthy chunk of stuff so you're not very likely to bust it up.

But that's an afternoon that requires at least a beer or two with dinner after. It doesn't hurt to set the speed of the saber saw low either.. additional advice, set the front guard of the machine as close to the blade as possible for slightly longer power on states. Rapidly ta ta ta tapping a rather think chisel around could do it if the work isn't thick. Less nerve racking that way.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Emailing: Future Aids - Raised-Line Drawing Board.htm
Hi Rob, I know what a scroll saw is and what it looks like, I've just never been partial to putting my finger anywhere near a moving blade, jigsaw or otherwise. I've heard horror stories of people getting their fingers too close to one of those blades while chopping up meat at the local grocery store, and people end up getting fingers along with the cuts of meat they buy. Like I said, I just get weary of my fingers going anywhere near a moving blade. Oh, and by the way, I also had a hard time explaining what a scroll saw was to a friend of mine here, and heck, if it wasn't just as difficult to explain as nuclear fission, but I think I can explain nuclear fission a lot easier than I could a scroll saw.

Tom, thanks, they actually do make fret pullers and if I were going to use some powdered material, I'd rap the hell out of the areas I don't want the stuff on. Oh yeah, great care will be taken, no rushing at all. Thanks for the suggestions.

[BlindHandyMan] 2002 Buick Century TRAC OFF light?
Today I changed the front left hub assembly I.E. wheel bearing on a 2002 Buick Century. I wasn't sure which wheel bearing was bad so I jacked up the front of the car and blocked it so that both wheels were off the garage floor. I then had someone start the car and put it in drive, and accelerate to around 50 MPH . The left wheel was noisier than the right one, so I removed the old left side hub assembly containing the wheel bearing and replaced it with a new one. This did fix the wheel bearing noise, it is gone. However, now the TRAC OFF light on the dash is lit and stays on while the key is on and when the car is being driven down the road. How do I turn the light out? I double checked the wheel sensor and it is plugged in. I hooked up an OBD II scanner but for some reason it wouldn't communicate with the ECM so I couldn't pull any codes. I disconnected the positive cable from the battery for 10 minutes and reattached it. The light was out when I turned the key to the on position and stayed out when the car was started but came back on in 500 feet of travel down the street. The only thing I can think of to do is to try pulling the codes again. This OBD II code reader is fairly new to me. I only used it once before and that was on a 2000 F150 4x4. The truck had a miss. I plugged the scan tool into the port beneath the dash, turned the key to the on possession without starting the truck and then turned the scan tool on. The scan tool gave me a P0301 code. I changed the coil on plug and the miss was gone. When I plugged the scan tool into the Buick, I used the same procedure as for the F150 but for some reason, I got a message that the scanner could not communicate. Does anyone know if the procedure for pulling codes is different for a Ford verses a GM vehicle?

RE: [BlindHandyMan] 2002 Buick Century TRAC OFF light?
I had a problem with my 89 s10 and my mechanic was going to use some type of gaget that he had to clear the fault code. He said oh ya thats write with this old of a truck I just need to unplug the battery for a couple of minutes. I assume from that experience that the newer cars that you may have to have it hooked up to some equipment at a garage for them to clear the code. I would ask a reputable mechanic if this is the case. robert -Original Message- From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of NLG Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2007 9:33 PM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: [BlindHandyMan] 2002 Buick Century TRAC OFF light?

[BlindHandyMan] Re: to fret or to fretless
Hi. I don't post very often at all. But on this topic, the luthier that Felix works with showed me how to fix a chip in the wood that was on a guitar neck-- a little boo boo where a small piece of wood had come out of the fretboard. Are you paying attention? He said to me very sternly and sort of upset me a bit. But it served its purpose-- to make me pay close attention. He had a glass jar full of rosewood 'sawdust' I guess you could call it. He had saved it from many many guitars he had worked on. He saved every last granual of rosewood sawdust-- he never threw any away, ever. The he took some superglue, yes, superglue and put a few drops into the hole, then some rosewood dust, then more superglue, then more rosewood dust, and so on until the hole was full. He then took some very fine sandpaper, 1500 grit, and buffed it smooth. And do you know what? When he was finished, you couldn't tell there was ever a hole there. Smooth as a baby's butt and visually too, there was no visual sign of the hole. (I am sighted.) I was very impressed. Then when we got home, Felix took some of the dust from the cardboard box he had his guitar sitting in while he was leveling the fretboard and had me put it into a baggie since we didn't have a nice big pickle jar handy like his luthier had, and then he asked me to fix a few smaller cacks that really only required one application of the superglue followed by one application of the saved dust, of which we didn't have much of anyway, and then I buffed it with 1500 grit sandpaper, and I too was able to smooth out some small nicks. Felix should have done it. Then he could describe it being done. But, it was me instead of him, this time. I'm only posting her today to describe my success in filling in holes in rosewood guitar fingerboards. Now, where does one find rosewood dust? The luthier saved his from leveling and cutting fretslots on many, many rosewood fingerboards. Felix and I think that if one knows where to get a piece of rosewood, it would be easy enough to make rosewood sawdust from that. Maybe even fun, too!

RE: [BlindHandyMan] I d mates.
Well as far as the topic of this product being on topic for the blind handy man. Hear are a couple of ideas. This could be used to mark things in the shop such as paints, varnish, stains, and other fluids that come in containers that may look similar but have different contants. Some times I can't tell the difference between motor oil and tranny fluid. Another use could be for marking wires such as plug wires or if you are working on a wire harness that has several wires that you need to keep track of and you can't see the colors, you could mark them with tags that the unit could read back to you once you have them marked.

Well Mates now that you're all ID'd the ID Mate is a bar code reader with an attached box that records, on flash memory cards, whatever you want and relates it to each bar code you show it. So you can either read existing codes on products, or put lables they sell on stuff and record names instructions etc. for each and then identify them again. Originally sold for well over a thousand bucks. Probably being replaced with computer based systems for less that come with huge product databases like BarCodeSolutions Scan and Say.

So is a jigsaw, and a sabersaw, and a scroll saw, the thing that looks like a foot log sewing machine with a saw blade instead of a needle on the end of a pistoning arm, all the same thing? On Thu, 19 Apr 2007, Victor Gouveia wrote: Hi Rob, I know what a scroll saw is and what it looks like, I've just never been partial to putting my finger anywhere near a moving blade, jigsaw or otherwise. I've heard horror stories of people getting their fingers too close to one of those blades while chopping up meat at the local grocery store, and people end up getting fingers along with the cuts of meat they buy. Like I said, I just get weary of my fingers going anywhere near a moving blade. Oh, and by the way, I also had a hard time explaining what a scroll saw was to a friend of mine here, and heck, if it wasn't just as difficult to explain as nuclear fission, but I think I can explain nuclear fission a lot easier than I could a scroll saw.

[BlindHandyMan] saving parts from a Dodge Caravan.
My friend has a Dodge Caravan at my place and he is going to scrap it. It is about a 1990 or 91. I offered to take off a few parts that he could put up in his garage for future use since he has other vans that are about the same year and model. Any thoughts on what I could save for him? I am not going to go as far as pulling the motor or the tranny or the wire harness. What I am thinking is parts like the starter, alternater, and maybe the power stearing pump. How about the coil pack I want to salvage what I can for him but again I don't intend on this being a major project. Any thoughts are welkcome.

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Emailing: Future Aids - Raised-Line DrawingBoard.htm
Thanks to all who responded to my inquiry about following tactile lines with tools. Truly we all do have varying talents and capabilities but that one is not mine. I did buy the long curve device from Lee Valley which I hope to be able to use with blocking and either a collar or a template bit on a router to form curves, one project I want to tackle maybe next winter is a roll top desk for some of our computer equipment which we seem to use mostly at the dining room table. As we use notebooks this appeals as an option to hide away scanners, printers and even the computers and to have a brailler always available near the kitchen telephone. I was puzzling as to how I might design the curved runway for the roll top probably not a perfect arc, if I can get close with this curve then improve it if necessary with a sander on a piece of plywood or hardboard then I can reproduce as many as I want. I was very interested to read about that ellipse jig in one of the magazines too, I have wondered about how to do that long and hard.
