This was right up my alley as I'm a huge music fan. In my video I unbox and set up this nice new Luoran MP3 Player with Bluetooth & WiFi, 4.0" IPS Display MP4 Portable Music Player with Full Touchscreen & Speaker, Metal Frame & Glass Back, with FM Radio, Audiobook, Browser, Up to 512GB (Black).
In this video I got through the steps on unclogging a bathroom sink. Many times the problem can be a super easy fix that will require you to get your hands dirty. This will save you a couple hundred bucks though. In the case presented in this video I was able to unclog this bathroom sink just using a pair of cheap hemostats. I'll post the link to some below but I must say, they are well worth what you may pay for them as they have many uses and I've used them to unclog numerous sinks over the years along with many other uses on various jobs.

I ordered this awesome beer kit from amazon. In this DIY Home Brew: Northern Brewer | Dead Ringer India Pale Ale Kit video, I take you step by step through unboxing, brewing and taste testing. This was ready to drink in just over a month. The first thing I did was heat approx 2.5 gallons of filtered water to 155F or approx 68F. Then take the provided grains, pour them into the grain bag, tie off the grain bag and place it into the water once it reaches temp. Maintain that temperature, no higher and no lower (plus or minus a couple degrees), and let it steep for 20 to 30 minutes. Once 20 to 30 minutes has elapsed, pull out the grain bag and let drain over the newly created wort. Don't squeeze it. Then it's time to bring the wort to a slow rolling boil. Total boiling time will be 60 minutes. Once boiling add the liquid malt extract. and stir in well. While it's boiling I added cool filtered water to the fermenter. I then added hops at 10 minutes time intervals and stirred them in. Once 60 minutes in complete I transferred the wort immediately to an ice bath. Once completely cooled I transferred (siphoned) the wort to the fermenter and topped it off with some additional filtered water. I then added the yeast and shook it around a little. Then I installed the air lock and let the brew sit for a couple weeks in a dark area. After a couple weeks I transferred it to a separate fermenter that was actually only used as a bottle filler and then mixed and added some hops and the priming sugar solution to give the brew carbonation. I then bottled it and let it sit for a couple weeks before sampling.
Installation of a couple hose clamps can make the difference between keeping your tailgate or losing it to theft. These clamps remove it from the easy target list and maybe make the dirtbags move onto another truck.
This demo was performed on a Silverado tailgate which works for GMC Sierra as well.

These shelves were very easy to put together. The directions they came with were very clear. Although the shelves are IKEA brand, they are made in China. That being said, the material they use to make these are probably the absolute bare minimum thickness they could get away with without them falling over. The fact they were made in China keeps the price down, but it keeps the quality down as well. These shelves will serve their purpose but I would definately not introduce a huge load to the units especially if you only purchased one. The fact that I have three linked up here gives them a little stability. Speaking of stability, don't skip installing the "X" shape stiffeners on the backside of these. They do help (reduce)their potential to wobble quite a bit. One thing I did not to in the above video was secure it to the wall. Securing it to the wall will also add to their stability quite a bit as well as add a safety feature to keep them from falling forward, so I recommend doing this.
According to https://www.diy-technician.com the best way to obtain these items is not to try to drag them out of the store on a busy weekend but order them online and have them delivered.
I buy from Ikea but here's why I despise going there.....
They got me. Along with millions of others. I'm no longer unique. No longer a hold out. No longer a spectator. I'm just like the rest. I ran right off the cliff with the rest of the herd. I suppose I would call it jealously more than anything. I'm guess I'm somewhat envious of Mr. IKEA who has figured out a way to repeatedly and painfully victimize me into wasting my precious Saturday mornings and hard earned money on obtaining new items in a profound fashion.
Once being bribed and convinced of the need to uproot myself from a once pleasant weekend morning, the journey starts way too early with a couple of pushes on the i(kea)-phone in order to take a taxi (via Grab app) to the IKEA penitentiary.
Let the root canal begin.
Once arriving at the ant colony, I'm forced by the crowd down a narrow habit trail as the entrance slowly fades away behind me. This is about the time the equivalent to water boarding begins. My senses become overwhelmed at the various lights, signs, products, chatter, etc. Blood pressure increases and breathing becomes laborious as I watch my fellow prisoners, who appear to be oddly enjoying this experience, load up their wheeled loot holders. The following hour or two is just a blur and it all runs together like bad water color painting.
I now prepare myself for the displeasure of temporarily being held hostage for a few hours by mood altering display nooks littered with unavoidable reduced pricing signs that have a Pavlovian effect on a certain gender of shopper. The slow motion action of one by one removing dollar bills from my wallet starts to play over and over in my head as I start to grow weary, sauntering down the path of least resistance.
Naturally all of this activity makes you hungry. Mr. IKEA does not want hungry prisoners so he has constructed a way to extract more money from each unsuspecting inmate. After finding a temporary place to store your gatherings you must divide and conquer. One of you must go secure and eating location while the other waits in a long line for a 1/2 hour minimum to obtain the food. If you do not time this right you may find yourself with nowhere to eat as the other prisoners do not care to part with thier places at the tables. Seasoned inmates know the routine. The ratio of food sold vs. places to sit are highly offset. Mr. IKEA does not care if you have to stand and eat so as long as you get enough calories in to finish the march of shame up to the check out line.
The post-meal second round of pain begins. I start to sweat as I'm lead back into general population. It's an apprehensive aggravation type of sweat. After all, I'm spending MY time and MY money as the painfully obvious becomes inevitable. My shopping cart is getting fuller the farther I wade into the abyss of consumables. At this point I'm seemingly unable to escape this insanity. This explains why there are no windows from which to make a freedom leap.
As I continue to serve out my sentence for hours while being inundated by "on sale" signs and dimmed lighting displays that tap into one's emotional side, I now start to sympathize with my captor. It is now that I get the pleasure of waiting in a long line to exchange my hard earned cash for items in my cart.
I take a sigh of relief as I feel like the finish line is within reach. The light at the end of the tunnel is growing larger.
In hindsight, I wish my future self could time travel back to my current self, tap me on the shoulder and say, "Go to Starbucks instead", or "say you have to work", or "pretend your wallet was stolen yesterday", then miraculously find it Monday morning, or fake an injury.
After waiting in what seems to be the 10th line of the day, an Aussie mate must have seen the steam leaving my now crimson colored face, when he taps me on the shoulder and says, "Hey mate, they serve cold beer right over there".

This scooter has been ridden hard and put away wet. Having been thoroughly abused, it no longer works. There's a good chance it is some kind of electrical issue as it's been utilized in a wet and humid environment. I would not purchase one of these again as it did not hold up at all. It lasted less than 3 months. Regardless, it's time to toss it out. I did attempt to single out any obvious signs of problems during it's disassembly. The purpose of taking it apart was to satisfy my curiosity of what's inside. During a slow and observant disassembly I could not locate any glaring signs of electrical problems other than a pinched wire for the LED light. The other purpose of this video is to share the experience with you.
Three different styles of smoke alarms and how to change the batteries on them. Smoke alarms will beep if they are getting low on batteries. If you suspect they are out or low, just replace the battery. Check them often and have more than one in a each area in case one happens not to work. It's a good idea to check these once every few months. You can test them by pressing the button on the front of the smoke alarm. If it doesn't make a loud beep when you push it, then the battery is dead or the smoke alarm is bad and should be replaced immediately. It's a good idea to have a smoke alarm in each room. There is no reason not to as they are very affordable and they are proven to save lives.
