I am looking for a good cleaner. The cleaner needs to be able to cut through grease and can also be used for cleaning counter tops and the stove door and top. Something concentrated would be nice, that way I don't need to wait forever to wipe the surface clean. Store cleaners never really do what they say.

I have two different tap lights and some times they come on by themselves. I have tried using and extension cord and a surge protector. Some times they wont come on for a long time, then all of a sudden in the middle of the night one will turn on. Why is it happening? How can I leave them plugged in and not have that happen?

If you get on Ebay and look up Task Force 12v battery packs, people are selling those 10-20 times CHEAPER than the Dewalts etc. Look, all of these have the same 'c' size Ni-Cad batteries in them. You simply take the case apart and remove the array of batteries. Then you can take a low wattage soldering iron and some solder (flux core is easier to get to stick). Just use nyour basic common sense to immitate the configuration of the pack you want to replace.
Another trick I came up with was to take a vacuum cleaner hose repair- heat shrink tubbing wrap ( Hesco inc. dot com) and put enough batteries in it to equal 9.6 volts and carefully attached a Male (-) / Female (+) connection plug. Now on my Dewalt battery charger I put the correspondingly opposite Male (+) / Female (-) plug. Then on the back of my 9.6 volt Dewalt drill I put a smaller vacuum cleaner belt looped where the normal ( and expensive) OEM battery would plug in. This loop of strong rubber is what holds the battery.

This hot tub is ancient and broken and I want to move it out of an enclosed porch. It is 7' X 5' and about 4' high. Is made of fiberglass and weighs about 500 lbs. What is the best way to get it out of there cost effectively without renting a crane. chop it up with a chain saw and carry out the pieces?

I recently used Gorilla on an automotive project. In the process, I got this stuff on my hands along with grease. Now the glue has the grease bonded to my skin, and so far nothing I've tried will take it off. Any ideas?

My son has a really cute collection of clothes, and we all know that baby/toddler clothes aren't cheap. I take good care of them but whenever he stays with realtives they or goes to my step-moms for babysitting his clothes come back with grease stains (from food) on them. I don't even realize until after they've been washed and dried! This has happend to four shirts so far. Is there any way to get these stains out? I'm holding onto them just incase. Thanks a lot.

I am so upset with myself. I just cooked a big pot of dry beans and let the water boil off and now the whole bottom of the Dutch Oven is covered with burnt beans and I can't get them off. The pan is a teflon pan, so I can't scrape it off. Any ideas on how to get the pan clean.?? Thank you.
