Combustion appliances in the home need to be vented.
Even with a typical vented stove hood, you wind up with higher levels of carbon monoxide and other pollutants than with, say, a cer...
I sprung for a Rapid Reel a couple of years ago and it works well - much better than any plastic reels out there and easier and quicker to stash my 100' of hose than a hanger or box or trap door (...
We used to make something similar out of a brown paper bag. We'd inflate the bag and tie a string around the opening and then hang one over the front and back door.
I don't know if it ...
Vacuum or broom, and then go over it with a sightly damp rag (tap water) on my StickMop. Same system works fine on my vinyl tile floors too. But the oil and vinegar sounds worth a try.
I happened on some Corona pruners last week and initially thought they were Felcos. The patent must have expired, if there was one. The Model 2 style are about $10 to $20 cheaper than my #2 Felcos ...
GreenWood can also furnish formaldehyde-free bamboo flooring. Their normal stuff is pretty low anyway (.0127ppm formaldehyde emission) but their web page doesn't say if the low/none emission stuff ...
Scrabble tiles is a great idea.
My local recycle building supply place (think Habitat for Humanity type store) often has little tiles like this. Matching colors would be hit or miss.
We looked at a bunch of samples and wound up with a pretty dense solid natural variety from Greenwood (via a Craigslist score). I could dent a lot of samples with my fingernail but not this. It's u...
Your selection of Goats Do Roam is a great choice for unpretentious drinking too.
If you want a stem, something big and fat like an Ikea Rättvik holds up well in the dishwasher.
I went back to rags (either white shop towels or bar rags) years ago. Sometimes I'll drain bacon on paper towels but newsprint works ok for that. Except I usually read the paper online. So I just d...
3 cats, all wood or vinyl floors here. I just use a StickMop (sort of like a Swiffer but it's just a stick with a cross piece on the end with a rag on it.)
I'm in the slightly damp is...
There's a gas stabilizer that comes in a container like this. It always bugged me to use it (all that tipping back and forth).
Plus I like pretending I'm a bartender and enjoy showing ...
That looks great in Melbourne, but I'd be hesitant about hanging so many objects over my bed in LA or other earthquake prone areas, unless they were screwed or attached to the wall securely. ...

Coronas are as good as or better than the Felco #2's in my experience.
