Is it enough for something that will be completely submerged in water? The materials I am using are waterproof, but I'm worried about the seams.

Something useful for suddenly snatching
flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your beer across the room, splattering it against that freshly painted part you were drying.

I think its because I have metal windows, but I can't change them because I live in an apartment complex... How can I make my bathroom warmer?

I would like to get the mattress as soon as possible, and save money to purchase a nice platform bed to put it on. I wouldn't think this would be a big deal like it is for box spring/mattress combos.

It doesn't seem to serve a purpose. Also it looks like it would be a pain to paint so why do we have it?

the place i live has snow which is really bad for concrete. water soaks in and exspands by 9 % which damages and breaks the concrete. also snow salt damages. which is why you need a sealer and there isnt a company around that does this.

My soon to be ex put my Ficus tree in direct sunlight for several days (he is pissed at me) and never watered it. Over half of the leaves have turned yellow and have fallen off. Once I got it back, I repotted it and put those feeder sticks in the soil. It's inside near good light (not direct). Will it start to sprout new leaves? I know they lose leaves anyway in the winter, but this is ridiculous. It is a good size tree, about 5 ft, and pretty wide. Thank you.

I need a vacuum....please help me...

It should be cheap because I already have an expensive one which I think useless for me...

It should be light because my expensive vacumm is so big and heavy...it makes me afraid of cleaning...also, i have stairs (hardwood)..

It should be bagless and cordless because bags and cords are very annoying...I am simply lazy..i guess

I am looking for something under $50...I don't have carpets or rugs. Only hardwood floor. no pets. I will use it 10-20 min everyday for light cleaning...

any recommendations?

my dad is building a house so i'm doing this from scratch. i've already thought of the color of the walls {{a grayish purplish bluish...one of those colors where you look at it and ask "is that gray or blue or purple?"}} and i'm thinking of painting my floor a dark purple and having people sign it with a metallic sharpie, and hanging CD's over my room shiny part out. but i still feel like even if i do all that, i'm still missing something. i still have my medium sized walk in closet, powder room, and bathroom to decorate as well. I like funky stuff {{as you can probably tell}}, except i DONT like posters. I'm open to a lot of ideas though, so please help!!

I have a constant drip coming from the bathtub faucet. Someone told me it could be the stem, but I can not get them out. I have removed the knobs (a two knob set up-cold and hot) to access the stems. I saw a hexagonal type shape thinking it was the stem, but all that came out was a bolt looking thing with threading on it. The stem is still connected and all I can see is a circle. No tub socket will fit around this circular object. I have tried pulling this circular thing out thinking it is a washer, but it will not move. I do not know how old the faucet is or what brand it is as it is unmarked and came with the house. What can I do besides using a hammer on it out of frustration? I have already been to lowes three times today and they are no help.

I have a few spider eggs sacs on my back porch that have been there since the end of summer, it's winter here in MI but I was wondering if they are going to hatch in the spring or if they are dead from the cold? Does anyone know anything about spider eggs and when they hatch or what temperature they die at?
