Donnie, I got my watch at Independent Living Aids. It was about $25 on
line. I've had it for about 4 years and I love it.
It has four alarms, it tells you the time and date and also has a stop
watch. It's nothing fancy but very dependable like a Timex watch used to
be. For the price, you
Tom,
I presume you can replace the battery in your watch. The problem I
encountered with the Radio Shack metal watch was that being able to replace
the battery was a real crap shoot.
Also, which watch do you have?

I was pleased to learn that our municipal water authority implemented one of
my suggestions. There were many times when a water line repair caused dirty
and sometimes muddy water. When this happens they make a water boil
advisory. Only one time did a neighbor think to call me in the morning to

Aloha Jennifer,
I went online and could only find information about using it with wood.
Maybe I missed something, but...

Thanks Betsy,
That is all I found too. I just have a pad lock that I want to glue the
screws in so it can not be opened with a screw driver instead of the key for
the padlock. I am open to other suggestions, I just already have the
gorilla glue and wanted it to work without a trip to the
So this time I had the good sense to Google glue metal to metal, instead of
gorilla glue. I learned that Crazy glue will most likely do the job even
though it is listed as the thrird best choice. Sotering and then a two part
apoxy if you must glue were what the first recommendations were. I
ALoha Jennifer,
I know this is a much smaller issue, but many
people I know use the crazy glue to keep the tiny
little screws on their glasses from coming out.
My husbands glasses have metal frames and it works great.
Good luck,

Eastman 910, which was the predecessor to crazy glue, is what we used to use
for metal to metal bonding. We had to have the surfaces very smooth and
clean but it really held. I understand crazy glue isn't as strong but is

I think the crazy glue will do if you can get it applied and get
the screws tightened before the glue sets.
Maybe just loosen the screws a bit, apply the smallest drop of glue
to the threads under the head, and tighten quick. Of course be sure
you don't drip crazy glue into the rest of the lock or
That stuff scares me! I have a bad habit of getting glue where I don't want it
and that stuff is nasty!
I recommend some form or other of epoxy. It is a little more forgiving and
doesn't tend to stick body parts together.

What I use to use for glasses was clear fingernail polish.It held the screws
in and broke fairly easy to remove.

hi Jennifer
if you don't want the screws out just use nail polish on the threads.
then screw the screws in tight then use a file and file off the tops of the
screws.
never get them out with out a drill
