It has to be recharged everytime I use it. Any ideas why and how to fix it? I'm not sure about the model but it's a manual transmision. Does it have an alternator or something? I put a brand new battery on it and it still has to be charged everytime.

I recently got a schefflera plant and I've noticed dead worms on the floor around it. This morning I found one alive about 2 feet away from it. They are brownish-black segmented worms about 2-3 inches in length (sometimes much smaller). What are they and how do I get rid of them??

to heat up a basement

2007-10-11 04:42:44 · 5 answers · asked by mars 1 in Other - Home & Garden

I do not know much about this but we have central air/heat. The weather turned from hot to freezing within a couple of days so I went to turn on the heat and it doesn't work. It sounds like it is on and everything but when I feel over then vents, there is no heat coming out. The air conditioning works fine though. Anyone know what the problem could be? I jsut don't want to pay tons of money if it is something simple. Were all freezing...someone please help! Thanks!!!

I want to refinish my cabinets my self. I have little to no woodworking experience. I am an experienced electrician though, so i have no problems with basic hand tools or tasks.

What is a good book series to use. One with diagrams and step-by-step instructions is appreciated.

Recently we started to remodel our den. We've demolished a closet, and inserted can lighting, now we would like to work on the floor and that entails removing the carpet and putting down hard wood flooring. The base boards go behind the fireplace's bricks... & I already started to rmove the baseboards from the entire room. Is there a way to remove the baseboards without having to demo the brick?

Its brand new and still in the box with all parts and all instructions. The thing is, when I bought it it came with a scooter and the tricycle. I have taken the scooter our and havent put the tricycle together. It originally cost $30 thats for both in the box. So I was thinking $15 for just the tricycle.
Any thoughts/suggestions?
