DIY Wood Floor Repair Project | Cheap Quick Fix | Wood Filler Putty and ...



The wood just inside this sliding glass window has taken a beating from sunlight and moisture. It really needs to be replaced. So much so that it is starting to show signs of rot and is giving way at some of the edges. Rather than try to refinish it or replace it right now, this wood putty fix was just what was needed for a cheap and quick repair job. If I was the owner I would not have it get as far damaged as it did and would have refinished it. It's possible it's still salvageable but definitely needs to be resealed to prevent further damage. For this band-aid type of quick fix I just used some wood filler putty, both light and dark and tried to come close on a color match but was unsuccessful so I used a furniture touch up marker to bend it in so the repair didn't stick out as much.

Here's the link to order one: https://amzn.to/2BkddjL



Omni point adjustable switches allow for customization of actuation distance.

According to description this is aircraft grade aluminum alloy built for a lifetime of durability and stability. I don't necessarily buy the "lifetime" statement but whatever. It's a good marketing word for the company

The description also claims RGB illumination unmatched customization with 16.8 million colors per key which I have no idea what this means but it sure does sound like it's doing something good.

I do agree that the premium magnetic wrist rest provides full palm support and comfortable, ergonomic feel without a doubt.

DIY How to Grill Mangoes | What's better than a Mango? | Answer: Another...



My love for mango's can only be shown here when I throw them on the barbie and grill them up. I added no extra ingredients and their natural sugars came out and the result was delicious. If you really want to spice this process up:
1. Coat with Sliced Mangos with Melted Butter
2. Sprinkled with Brown Sugar or Regular Sugar
3. Cayenne Pepper for a kick at the end

You won't be disappointed either way. Grilling these mangos is a nice addition to your menu for either just yourself of when entertaining friends. Follow the three steps above to really set this off.

DIY Troy-Built Riding Mower Blade Sharpening Tutorial-Sharpen that Dull ...


Thanks for checking out my DIY blog here. Well the first thing you have to do is figure out how to get the the mower safely off the ground without having it fall on you. The best way is to use a lift of some kind but definitely if nothing else, use some jack stands for safety. Once off the ground you'll need two wrenches so you can apply counter torque to the bolt and nut holding the blade on.
Loosen the long bolt and nut that holds it in place and this will allow the blade to come free. Once you get the blade off, secure it to a saw horse and bust out your grinder. Every good DIY technician has a hand held grinder. Then put your handiwork to the test and hone a new edge on that mower blade.

After you sharpen your blade, reinstall it, and get cut your lawn for the first time, you will be so happy as it's just like cutting the grass with a brand new mower. You will also take extra precautions not to hit rocks, dirt, sticks, plastic bottles, kids toys, and baseballs just to see what they look like chopped up.

If you are tired of pushing a mower around the yard, save yourself a bunch of time and have a little fun by buying one of these mowers below on amazon. Or hell, upgrade to a new one.
