    Accurate outboard hour meter

    I got this idea from a retired electronics instructor friend of mine but haven't tried it yet. Get a hot tub pressure switch and using a T adaptor connect it to the tell tale line. Run power for the meter thru the normally open contacts on the micro switch. The gauge could be mounted under the...

    Routers???

    I need to replace my Linksys WRT160N and am getting confused as to what is available these days. It needs to be wireless and have a couple ports for wired ( 802.11n ) connections.

    Rusted in bolts??

    Anyone seen this before? Wonder what exactly a "scientifically rusted" environment is. Machinist's Workshop magazine actually tested penetrants for break out torque on rusted nuts. Significant results! *They arranged a subjective test of all the popular penetrants with the control being...
