We have a king bed that is peaking or bowing in the middle. We both sleep on the edges so the middle is starting to peak up. It is a pillowtop so we can't flip the mattress over and it can be turned sideways because the mattress is not square. Any ideas on how to fix it?

My Metal baseboard enclosures are dented rusted and ugly. I could remove them sand them pound out the dents and repaint them but that is alot more work and expenense than you may realize. I have seen just the metal enclosures a lowes but I can not bring myself to spend the money. Just the enclosure for a 6 foot section for example cost about $60. The enclosure with the piping and fins cost only about $10 of $15 bucks more. Are there any other cheaper replacements out there? I thought about building them out of wood ( I probally have every woodworking tool known to man available to me) but I know the wood will expand & contract & eventally warp and look bad also. any suggestions???

My cat tore away all the weatherstripping at the bottom side of the door. The weatherstripping looks like a soft vinyl accordion with part of it behind the frame of the doorway. The door makes a seal up against it when its closed. I have no idea how to get it off, what I need to replace it or even how to replace it. Anyone suggestions?

I would like to buy a cordless drill/driver but would not be using on a regular basis (well... most of the time... infrequently). Would that do damage to the rechargeable batteries? Would it be better to only charge prior to when I know I will be needing to use it?
Any insight would be helpful. Thxs.

I need a Plain Jane explination of a ground loop.
I am a visual learner and have no visual to learn. so explain it to me for how it looks.

This is MECP study guide explanation:
Ground Loops result when all the components in an audio system do not see exactly the same ground. huh?

Differences in degrees of being grounded are called ground potential. huh?

Again please explain in how it looks to the eye, then explain the deffinitions I just gave you.

Also is a ground loop a bad thing?

(this is for car audio by the way)

Tub is only 4.5 to 5 yrs old. No warning problems. The in tub wall mount switch seems to push in easier than usual. Still has some resistnce but not like normal when it worked. There is no sound or attempt to start. I am thinking it is the switch. Can switch b replaced without taking marble outer sheet off?? If not, will I need to call the marble guy and the tub/jacuzzi guy?? Or gal/gals?

Our house is 50 years old with plaster walls. We are scraping off old wall paper and paint which is coming off nicely. The plaster is very smooth and shiney. I am wondering if the paint will stick properly to the plaster. Will primer and paint be OK or do we have to do something else?

This would be a detached 1 car garage at an existing house. Nothing too fancy, just standard size to fit a car, and needs to be fitted with electricity for an automatic garage door opener.
