DIY Allen and Roth Blackout Window Shade Installation Demonstration [All...

This Allen and Roth window shade was super easy to install and can be accomplished in a matter of minutes. I used a cordless drill for securing it's only two brackets to the interior of the window frame. Purchased at Lowe's. They are light weight and keep the sun from blasting through the window as well as provide maximum privacy. I take you step by step through the process in my "DIY Allen and Roth Blackout Window Shade Installation Demonstration [Allen and Roth Blackout Shade]" video. Hey guys get some blinds i'm gonna put up here these allen and roth blinds but this is the before picture 47 inches across here's the blinds that we're going to be using Okay again this was 47 inches across and these are 46 so you can see there's a little bit of a gap in there which is what you want which is the window seal will kind of make up that gap as well but if we did it on the full 47 i'm not sure that this would fit here's the brackets for these things okay we have a choice of either doing an inside mount like this or an outside mounting outside the frame here okay see those two dots there those are the marks i made with the pencil and i just made that because i'm going to pre-drill my holes right there Now we're going to screw these into the two holes we just made to secure the bracket to the overhead all right we got our brackets up i'm just gonna pop the thing in there just snaps right in there gonna angle it down this piece is the handle to pull the shade down and it just grabs that lower edge you just snap it right on there i'll show you okay this is the upper portion so this just grabs that lip right there here we go That was too easy Thank you.

How to Unclog a Bathroom Sink and How to Remove Sink Drain Stopper



n this video I discuss and demonstrate a method of unclogging your backed up bathroom sink. I start with the least invasive and try to unclog the bathroom sink by using a pair of hemostats to fish out any debris around the drain as this is sometimes the only fix you need to do. This was not the case in this instance of this plugged up drain. The sink stopper needed to come out. This means the up and down mechanism must me disassembled. This is done by going underneath the sink and unthreading the fitting that secures the up and down joint. Once unthreaded it can be pulled out. Now there is a hole in the pipe so if you run your water anymore it will run out the hole all over the place. Now you can remove the stopper from up above. In this instance there was some debris down inside the drain that needed to fished out. After removing all the debris that was reachable I reassembled the parts. The sink was still not unclogged though so I had to disassemble again. I decided to give it the water pressure treatment with the garden hose as I've had many successes in the past using this same method. Once I flushed whatever was plugging it down the drain with the hose pressure, I reassembled all the parts. What you want is a whirlpool or eddy look of the water as it goes down the drain. If it bubbles or gurgles a bit then it means something is impeding the water flow and it's still plugged.

Watch this video to speed the learning process up a little. If you hadn't assembled or taken one of these cases apart before it'll take you some time to get it figured out. Watch this video and you'll see exactly how to do it.

Project Source Brand Overhead Ceiling Light Fixture Installation-Model#0...


This Project Source brand overhead house light is fairly easy to put it in especially if its just a swap out for and older one. Just like in this case the existing wires and hole were already there.
The very first thing you want to make sure you do is turn off the power. Use a volt meter to verify that the power is off before you start as well just to make sure you've got the correct circuit. One thing I like to do as an added safety measure is to turn off the light switch as well. This way, if you've turned off the wrong circuit and happen to get unlucky enough to get a faulty volt meter, than you've got a third barrier from you getting shocked.

Vintage Iron City Brand Sledge Hammer Refurb


Took this old "Iron City" sledge hammer rock buster head and carved the end of an old axe handle out that had been sitting on the wall for years and made it work. It took quite a bit of hand working the wood down and fitting the metal shim up to make it work but finally got a good solid fit. Fun project and the result was a useful tool to add to the collection. Was nice to see it all come back to life.
