DIY Shoe Rack | Build It | Ask This Old House

Ask This Old House general contractor Tom Silva and host Kevin O’Connor build a combination bench/shoe rack out of fir decking. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 4-5 hours Cost: $150 Skill Level: Moderate Tools: Miter saw [https://amzn.to/2KneNCF] Table saw [https://amzn.to/2KpFzub] Sanding block [https://amzn.to/3cBzPJN] Drill driver [https://amzn.to/2RZfZQV] Pocket hole jig [https://amzn.to/3avZLoL] Shopping List: 1x4” fir porch decking [https://ift.tt/3eWyPBQ] 2x2” baluster stock [https://ift.tt/2W9hixH] Sandpaper [https://amzn.to/3cFBv4Q] Wood glue [https://amzn.to/3bydBIC] Pocket screws [https://amzn.to/34YTAbK] Spray-on high gloss urethane [https://amzn.to/2RYEg9A] Spray-on satin urethane [https://amzn.to/2VKiyY0] Steps for building a shoe rack: 1. Start by cutting all the pieces of the fir decking. To ensure each repetitive cut has the same dimension, Tom recommends using the stop on the miter saw. Cut pieces for the rails and slats that will eventually make up the shelving for the shoe rack. 2. Using a table saw, cut dados into the rails and rabbets on both ends of each slat. 3. Sand all the pieces individually before assembling using a sanding block. 4. Insert the slats into the rails. Add filler pieces the thickness of the dado and the same width as the slates into the dado to fill in the holes between the slats. 5. Once the positioning of the slats in the dados are correct, pull each filler piece out individually and apply wood glue to the joint. Repeat this process for the rail on the other side of the shelf. 6. Pull out the slats and sand the filler pieces in the rail smooth. 7. Apply wood glue to the slats and push them into the rails. 8. Clamp everything together and allow the glue to dry. 9. Assemble the shelves using pocket screws. 10. Put the boards together for the top. Place the shelves and the base on top of the shelves to determine the right location for the top. Secure the base to the top using more pocket screws. The top does not require wood glue or any additional connections. 11. Apply a finish to the shoe rack. In the video, Tom and Kevin applied a high gloss urethane. 12. Allow the coat to dry and then apply a second coat. Repeat this process for the third coat. For the second and third coat, apply the satin finish. Resources: For lumber, Tom and Kevin used fir porch decking, which can be found at home centers. To assemble the shoe rack, Tom and Kevin used a combination of wood glue, which is made by Gorilla Glue [https://amzn.to/3bydBIC] (www.gorillatough.com) and pocket hole screws using a Kreg K4 jig [https://amzn.to/3avZLoL] (https://ift.tt/1CCEfcw). For the finish, Tom applied a combination of Clear Satin and High Gloss Water-Based Interior Polyurethane Spray Paint [https://amzn.to/2RYEg9A], which is manufactured by Varathane (https://ift.tt/2pexNYn).

My name is Dhiran Mistry and I work at the John Barrett Salon in Bergdorf Goodman. Today I'm with Cassie and we are going to show you how to rock big, beautiful, curly hair. As you see Cassie's all ready got amazing curls, so what I'm going to do, just to enhance the curls a little bit more, I'm going to use a curling iron. Not, a very big one, because as you can see Cassie all ready has some really tight curls going on. Depending on the curls you have, you might want to use a bigger curling iron. I'm just going to take a few small pieces and go over them with this curling iron and then what we'll do is flip her upside down and start to build some more volume inside. [Music] Now, doing this to the hair will give some more definition to some of those curls that when you wake up, the hair line seems a bit frizzy or you've been outside and its a bit of a windy day and you just want a bit more definition on some of these frizzy bits. [Music] With a lot of people with curly hair, the hair line tends to act a little bit differently. I would especially pay close attention to the hair line. These are the bits that become more frizzy. Anything that touches your clothes or where you sweat on your hair line, those parts will start to misbehave. [Music] What I'm doing now is picking up some of the pieces that I can see are a little bit frizzy or less defined. I'm not separating the hair to much, I'm grabbing a curl that all ready exists and making it a little more defined. I'm not breaking up the natural curl to much. Once you've added some more curls, just to create some more volume . . . Could you flip your hair forward for me? Flip your head upside down, give it a really good shake, shake out all those curls, and you can put a bit of hair spray on if  you need to get it to stick. Put a touch of hair spray in there and then really fluff it up. Now, that the hair has got a little bit more definition to it you can play around with it a bit more. Then, flip your hair back and there we have it, how to rock some big glamorous curls.

How to Design an Outdoor Kitchen | Ask This Old House

Ask This Old House landscape contractor Jenn Nawada discusses the common elements she includes in outdoor kitchen designs. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse [Steps for designing an outdoor kitchen: 1. The most cost effective and straightforward outdoor kitchen to install is a grill station. It provides workspace, storage, and can be used as an anchor or focal point for the patio. When designing a grill station, Jenn thinks about the following: a. Placement - how far does the gas line need to be run, where can it vent, where does it fit practically, does it have comfortable access from the interior kitchen to bring food in and out of the house? All cook stations typically have the gas plumbed in from the house and electrical outlets to either plug in a refrigerator, connect a rotisserie, incorporate lighting, connect the grill ignitor, etc. These are all things Jenn needs to consider before determining the right location. b. Aesthetics - which materials will best match the aesthetics of the rest of the patio and the house? 2. Consider what type of appliances you might like outside. Select specific appliances that would be important to the way they cook and want to use the space. These include refrigerators, warming drawers, drawers for storage, trash/recycling, paper towel holders, etc. Once those are selected, it will be easier to design the layout of the outdoor kitchen. 3. In general, Jenn recommends that, just with every design, everything should have a purpose. The first question she usually asks homeowners is what they plan on using the outdoor kitchen for? That informs the elements that will go into the kitchen. If someone wants more of an elaborate seating area for entertaining guests, she’s not going to waste space and budget on an elaborate grill station that cuts back on how much seating she can have. Resources: Jenn showed photos of some of her own outdoor kitchen designs as installed at homeowners’ houses. In general, she recommends that homeowners think about what they plan on using the outdoor kitchen for to inform what elements they put into it.

Should I Get My Pig Spayed or Neutered? | Pet Pigs

One is because an intact female or male is not an appropriate house pet. The other reason is because of health issues. By the time a female is eight years old she will start to develop a uterine tumor or infection and that can be her demise. The same with the males, their testicles become cancerous and about 80% of the time we do see that they have these problems as they age when they're intact. When a female isn't spayed she goes into heat every three weeks and during the time that she is in heat, which is a three day period, she wants to nest and she wants to mate and both of these behaviors can cause damage to your home. She'll chase your husband around the house. It's very important that they be spayed. The little boys on the other hand they're impossible to live with. Not only do they have a musky male odor, they are trying to hump everything in the house including the dog, the children, anything; and daily, it's not just occasional, it's daily. So it's important to get your animal spayed or neutered.

How to Install Concrete Pavers | Ask This Old House

Ask This Old House mason Mark McCullough helps an expecting couple install a concrete paver patio #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 12-14 hours Cost: $2500 and up, depending on size and materials Skill Level: Difficult Tools: Pickaxe [https://amzn.to/34XU69V] Shovel [https://amzn.to/2yAfANM] Compactor [https://amzn.to/3bvD4SW] Wheelbarrow [https://amzn.to/34XUntt] Rake [https://amzn.to/2xTvdzZ] Screed [https://amzn.to/3arNdyr] Level [https://amzn.to/2VRh12i] Stakes [https://amzn.to/2VNNR4d] String [https://amzn.to/3anYcsU] Framing square [https://amzn.to/2VsVRZf] Broom [https://amzn.to/2XWqXKI] Shopping List: Concrete pavers [https://ift.tt/2Y6ZN3R] Stone pack [https://ift.tt/2W0jLKT] Concrete sand [https://amzn.to/3eHAGdJ] Polymeric sand [https://amzn.to/2KskS0o] Plastic edging [https://amzn.to/3eEJt09] Steps for installing concrete pavers: 1. Start by marking and digging out the area for the patio. A pickax can help loosen up the soil, which will make it easier to dig out. Dig until the patio is consistently 8-9” deep, though some spots of the patio may require digging deeper in order to keep the patio even. 2. Run the compactor over the patio area to compact the soil and allow for a firm base. 3. Pour a layer of stone pack material over the base of the patio. Rake it out until it’s roughly even. 4. Run the compactor over the patio area to compact the pack material onto the base. 5. Pour a layer of concrete sand over the patio area. The sand will help hold the pavers in place. Rake out the sand over the base until it’s roughly even. 6. Run the compactor over the patio area to compact the sand onto the base. 7. Screed over the entire base of the patio and fill in any low spots and shave down high spots until the base is even. During this step, place a level on the screed to check the pitch of the patio base. Mark suggests having a slight pitch down and away from the house, so that any rainwater that falls on the patio will not pool towards the house. 8. Use some string and stakes to square off the patio base. In the example above, Mark used the foundation of the house as a reference point and measured two equal distances towards the patio for the location of his stakes. You can check that the stringed off area is square by holding a framing square up to it. 9. Start laying the concrete pavers within the stringed area. Start in a corner and work your way down and out. Use a mallet to secure each paver in place, and check each paver for level before moving on to the next paver. a. NOTE: In this case, Mark laid the pavers in an ashlar pattern. This pattern can be tricky to place, but the pavers come with a template book that you can follow along with to make things easier. 10. Place plastic edging along the edges of the patio. The edging comes with stakes that can be hammered down to secure it into place. 11. Pour the polymeric sand over all the joints between the pavers and sweep them in tight with a push broom. 12. Lightly hose down the patio to activate the polymeric sand. 13. Give the patio about an hour to cure before walking on it or otherwise using it. Resources: Mark installed Andover Collection Stone Cleft pavers in the Richfield Blend color, which are manufactured by Ideal Concrete Block (https://ift.tt/357jH01). Compactors can be rented at most home centers and landscape supply stores. The other materials Mark used, including pack, concrete sand, and polymeric sand can be purchased at landscape supply stores.

How to Upgrade to a Smart Thermostat with Four Wires | This Old House: Live

Ask This Old House home technology expert Ross Trethewey demonstrates how to install a new smart thermostat without an existing common wire. This video is part of This Old House: Live [https://bit.ly/TOHLive]—an initiative providing daily programming and opportunities to connect with our experts during these challenging times. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Cost: $150 Time: 1 hour Difficulty: Easy Shopping List: Google Nest Smart Thermostat [https://amzn.to/3ePM8US] Tools: Phillips head screwdriver [https://amzn.to/3cIbbHv] Small flathead screwdriver [https://amzn.to/2RYIKgr] Steps for Installing a Smart Thermostat: 1. Shut the power off and disconnect the old thermostat using the small flathead screwdriver. Ross suggests taking a picture of the wiring configuration to keep track of which wire goes where. Remove the wall screws holding up the thermostat before disconnecting the wiring to prevent the wires from falling into the wall. 2. Mount the baseplate of the smart thermostat to the wall using the provided screws. Wire the smart thermostat to the correct terminals. a. In general, the heating wire (often white), goes into the “W” port, the cooling wire (often yellow), goes into the “Y” port, the wire that sends power from the HVAC system to the thermostat (often red), goes into the “R” port, the fan wire (often green), goes into the “G” port, and the common wire (often blue), which should go into the “C” port. b. If you don’t have a common wire, Ross recommends wiring the G wire into the common port instead. Most people don’t use the “fan only” mode, so while you’d give up control over the fan in the system, you’d gain constant power to the smart thermostat. You’ll also have to change the wire at the furnace from G to C. 5. Connect the thermostat to the baseplate. 6. Configure the thermostat following the manufacturer’s settings. Resources: Ross installed a Google Nest Thermostat E [https://amzn.to/3ePM8US]. The kit comes with the baseplate, thermostat, and required screws to secure it to the wall.

How to Make Bread with Melissa Weller | Make Bread

Watch more How to Make Bread videos: https://ift.tt/2W1xjWG Hi. My name is Melissa Weller and I'm a bread baker. I live in Brooklyn, New York. I am so happy to share making bread at home with you. I just want to tell you a little bit about myself. I started out working as a chemical engineer and then I career transitioned into bread and pastry, probably because I spent a year in France when I was in college, and I just fell in love with the bread there and fell in love with the pastries. I was so enamored by the process that I just wanted to learn how to do it and I wanted to learn how to make the most beautiful breads that I possibly could. So after several years of working as a chemical engineer I changed my career and I started working in restaurants in California, in San Francisco and San Diego, and I just desired to learn more, so I moved to New York and I studied pastry at the French Culinary Institute. After I graduated at the French Culinary Institute I started baking around the city. I spent two years at Babbo in the Village making pastries and plated desserts, and then that led to a wonderful opportunity where I spent a summer at Bread Alone making bread and mixing bread at Bread Alone. Then I transitioned to Sullivan Street Bakery here in Manhattan and I spent a year at Sullivan Street. I learned under Jim Lahey, great techniques for fermentation. It really shaped me as a baker.Then from Sullivan Street Bakery I auditioned for head baker at Per Se and Bouchon Bakery and it was there that I was the head baker for two years. It was there that I really expanded my repertoire of breads. I left Per Se and Bouchon Bakery to have my son. I took a little bit of time off, and from there I went on to establish and create the Bread Program and Pastry Program at Roberta's in Brooklyn. I am just so enamored by creating flavorful, fully fermented beautiful loaves of bread, that it's my goal someday to have my own bakery. If you're interested in learning more about me and more about the breads that I bake and if you're interested in a recipe for one of the breads that you saw me demonstrate, please, please visit my blog. It's https://ift.tt/2VylF6k and I'd love to have you as a visitor. I hope that these videos inspire you to try these breads at home.

Ask This Old House plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey helps a homeowner replace all the plumbing components in his pedestal sink. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 2-3 hours Cost: $150 Skill Level: Moderate Tools: Pliers [https://amzn.to/2REfCuI] Wrench [https://amzn.to/2xyGaqr] Utility knife [https://amzn.to/2XGMMO4] Putty knife [https://amzn.to/2VeGWSk] Hammer [https://amzn.to/3afvzOy] Basin wrench [https://amzn.to/2yYEcQq] Shopping List: Faucet [https://amzn.to/2Vdp4r9] Stainless steel braided hoses [https://amzn.to/2VzfyNZ] Plumber’s putty [https://amzn.to/3ckWXfm] Steps for Replacing Pedestal Sink Parts: 1. Start by shutting off the hot and cold water valves to the sink. Open the faucet to ensure the shutoffs hold. 2. Disconnect the hot and cold water supply lines using pliers. There will still be a little bit of water in these hoses so be prepared with a small bucket or a rag to catch the water. 3. Remove the basin of the sink from the base of the pedestal. a. The basin is usually held against the wall by two bolts, which can be loosened using a wrench. b. Richard recommends scoring along the wall with a utility knife to prevent any caulking between the sink and the wall from damaging the wall. c. To loosen the drain connection, carefully slide the pedestal away from the basin until you can get a wrench around the drain. d. Once everything is disconnected, pull the basin away. Richard suggests sliding a putty knife in between the score marks from the utility knife with a hammer to ensure that all the caulking has been separated from the sink. 4. With the sink removed from the wall, replace any parts that require replacing. a. To replace the supply hoses: disconnect the nuts from the base of the sink using a basin wrench. Secure the new hoses using the same process in reverse. b. To replace the pop-up assembly: loosen the drain connection using the basin wrench. Disassemble the linkages for the pop-up and pull the plunger from the top of the sink. Reverse this process for the installation. In the case of the video, Richard replaced the pop-up with a push-button drain that required no linkages and came with the faucet. c. To replace the faucet: disconnect the nuts underneath the hot and cold handles using the basin wrench. Pull the faucet and the handles out of the sink. Slide the new faucet into the hole. Apply plumber’s putty underneath the faucet on the face of the basin. Tighten the new nut from the underside of the basin. Make all the new hose connections to the faucet. Newer models have plastic push connections that can be made without any tools. 5. Place the sink back on the bolts against the wall and on top of the drain. 6. Tighten the bolts and the nut for the drain using a wrench. 7. Slide the pedestal fully into position. 8. Connect the hot and cold water lines to the hot and cold shutoffs using the wrench. 9. Turn the water back on. Resources: Richard installed a Pfister Pasadena faucet [https://amzn.to/2Vdp4r9] in a brushed nickel finish (https://ift.tt/2mA77El). The faucet also came with a stopper, drain pipe, and an installation tool to do all the work. The other tools and materials Richard used to remove the old faucet and install the new one, including the wrenches and the plumber’s putty, can be found at home centers and plumbing supply houses.

How to Talk to Kids about Tough Topics | Child Anxiety

No child should suffer depression and anxiety without help, seek professional help for you and your child and here’s some resources for educating yourself along the way: Freeing Your Child from Negative Thinking: http://amzn.to/1jOAGeu How To Get Unstuck From The Negative Muck: http://amzn.to/1Pj1b7O Depression and Your Child: A Guide for Parents and Caregivers: http://amzn.to/1LiG97G What to Do When You're Scared and Worried: A Guide for Kids: http://amzn.to/1jOAOuH What to Do When You Worry Too Much: A Kid's Guide to Overcoming Anxiety: http://amzn.to/1JThS2M Watch more How to Deal with Child Anxiety & Depression videos: https://ift.tt/2RYdzSw Hi. I'm going to talk to you about how to talk to your kids about tough topics. The two important things about that are "What's a tough topic?" and the other thing is "Talk." A tough topic may be anything that's in the news, difficult in your life, one of those hot-button issues that you think are kind of just hard to bring up with your child. But the real important thing is you need to talk. You are the best source of information for your children, and also they really do trust you, and they need to hear it from you, because at the end of the day, you want to communicate your values, you want to communicate the information, and you want to communicate that you are somebody your child can go to with questions and feelings. One thing you want to do is first, just get it out there in the open. You may just bring it up casually, saying, "You know, I've seen this in the news. Have any of your friends been talking about it?" Other times, you need to be direct and say, "You know what? I needed to talk to you about something that's going on in the family or in our life right now." And then talk, but also listen. First, you want to hear what does your child - any age child, young, as well as teenager - knows or thinks, and you want to then base your response and your answers directed to what they are having on their mind and what they are questioning or worried about or thinking about. You also want to give information in an age-appropriate way, using appropriate language as well. You want to be honest. You want to use the right words whenever possible. But again, you might say, "There was an accident," and with a child that's older, you may be talking about some details maybe about a car crash or about something else that happened, but again, the real words, so they start to have that vocabulary, and also because they're going to be hearing the adults around them talking, and they don't want to be confused. You want to make sure you have more than one conversation. It's not just get the information out and you're done. It's being open and being inquisitive and being curious about what your child is thinking as they go on and get more information or are dealing with their feelings. So again talk about the information as well as how you're feeling, and then talk about how to deal with how you're feeling about whatever is going on. If it's something in the news, if it's something in school, if it's something in the family, how are we going to cope with this? We're going to talk about how we cope with it, and we're going to give each other help and talk about how to manage it, whether it's through activities, whether it's through writing, whether it's through art, whether it's through talking, whether it's through being with friends. It's not just talking. It's coping, and then dealing with whatever it is that's tough to make it a little easier.

How to Choose a Bathroom Exhaust Fan | Ask This Old House

Ask This Old House master electrician Heath Eastman discusses some new technology for bathroom vent fans. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Cost: $100 and Up Skill Level: Expert Shopping List: Flexible insulated bath vent [https://amzn.to/2XGTx2o] Bath fan register [https://amzn.to/2XHNHxF] Bath fan [https://amzn.to/2z7qw5V] Control switch [https://amzn.to/2RKuGXT] Steps for Choosing a Bathroom Exhaust Fan: 1. Bath fans help move air out of the bathroom to outdoors, in the process removing both odors and more importantly humidity. The fan should be on anytime somebody takes a bath or shower because when you have humidity building up in a bathroom, you invite mold and mildew to form. 2. Heath prefers using a 4-inch insulated flexible venting both to cut down on noise and to prevent condensation. 3. Heath emphasizes that bathrooms cannot vent into an attic. All that humidity will get trapped in the attic and cause mold to form. He suggests venting out a side wall whenever possible. If that’s not possible, go through the roof. Do not vent through a soffit. 4. Heath shows that most bath fans have the fan mounted right over the register, but there is an option where the fan is located elsewhere, often an attic or basement and is ducted to both the bathroom register and the vent to outside. He likes these because they allow for longer duct runs and can allow for proper venting where it might not always be the path of least resistance. 5. Heath also underscores the importance of actually operating the fan when needed and for the appropriate length of time, which can be controlled by timers. a. The most basic form of control is a simple on/off switch, but that requires you to turn off the fan when you leave the room and it’s really better to run the fan for at least 30-40 minutes after a shower. b. A decade or so ago, Heath would’ve used a rotary timer switch, which needs to be dialed when you enter the bathroom, and when the time runs out, the fan shuts off. c. Nowadays, there are digital timers that do the same thing and look a little nicer, but you still have to turn them on to start them. d. There are also humidistat switches that can go into the wall and can automatically turn on the fan when the humidity reaches a certain point and then turn it off when it dips below that point. 6. There are even newer fans that require constant power at the fan and use a switch leg for more control. It can be set to always be on at a low speed to keep air moving in a home. Resources: Heath recommends using an insulated flexible duct for venting bath fans both to eliminate condensation and noise, which are available at home centers. He prefers terminating these vents on a sidewall or through the roof, never into an attic or into a soffit. Heath showed a bath fan that can be mounted away from a bathroom to help with venting and noise. In this case, the one he showed was manufactured by Fantech [https://amzn.to/2REYgh9] (https://www.fantech.net). Heath showed options for controlling a fan that included digital timers and humidistats. These are sold at home centers and electrical supply houses. He also showed a fan that could take modules to control the fan by timer, humidity, or motion. This fan is manufactured by Panasonic [https://amzn.to/2VAwrYC] (https://ift.tt/2FSP4k3).

How to Use the Peg System | Memory Techniques

Forget Something? Beef up your memory with these products: Unlimited Memory: How to Use Learning Strategies to Learn Faster: http://amzn.to/1ZhQd79 The Memory Book: The Guide to Improving Your Memory at Work: http://amzn.to/1GyJ4DK Moonwalking with Einstein: The Art and Science of Remembering: http://amzn.to/1R1vC0U The Memory Jogger 2: Tools for Continuous Improvement: http://amzn.to/1Oo5pMt Memory Improvement: How To Improve Your Memory In Just 30 Days: http://amzn.to/1Oo5pMt Watch more How to Improve Your Memory videos: https://ift.tt/3eE5YlR I'm Barry Reitman, author of Secrets, Tips and Tricks of a Powerful Memory and I'd like to discuss how to use the Peg system also called the Hook System, some folks call it the File-folder System, it's all the same thing. It's a way of taking all that data in your brain and assigning it to a place that you're familiar with so you don't have to remember abstract data. This will tell you where it is. I use hook numbers, again also called peg numbers. They fall back on the major number system which is another video in this series. There's also some material at some free links on my website powerfulmemorysecrets.com. I'm gonna give you an overview of it now. The Peg System or the Hook System uses numbers that are composed of sounds at least 1 through 99. Wow, how am I gonna remember? Well, they're not abstract. They're there with a purpose. One of the things you're gonna learn is that the number one has the sound of t or d, ta or da. You don't have to know why right now, just accept it as a given. The number four has the sound of the letter m. So 1 might be the t sound and 3 might be the m sound. If I put them together, I might have time. So if I put them together, the t sound and the m sound, I might have the word tomb, like an ancient tomb. Notice the tomb has a b on the end but I'm hearing sounds, I'm not reading letters. Hearing sounds is much better and I can see a tomb. When I think the number 13, one-three, I see a tomb. You can wake me out of a dead sleep and hit me over the head and say thirteen, I'm gonna see a tomb and that's how quickly it's gonna come to you if you spend a little bit of time with this system. If the 13th item that I want to remember in a long list is a bookcase, I wanna refinish the bookcase this weekend, that's the 13th item on my list; do you do 13 items on a weekend? I try. If the 13th thing I wanna do this weekend is refinish my bookcase, all I have to do is take my bookcase in my mind's eye and put it in front of the door of the tomb so that I can't get into number 13 tomb. There's a big bookcase there and when I see that, when I finish the 12th item, I won't have to say to myself, okay I finished the 12th item, what's gonna be the 13th item? I don't have to do that. I've finished the 12th item and all I have to do is say, "What's in front of the tomb? Oh there it is, I see it. It's a bookcase blocking the way." That's a very short example. I encourage you to learn the major system which will lead you to the hook and peg system, there's no easy way to do it in a brief video but it's much easier than you think to learn.

How to Clean Dirty Grout with Homemade Cleaner | Ask This Old House

Ask This Old House general contractor Tom Silva explains how to clean dirty tile grout using only household supplies. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 4-5 hours Cost: $0 and up Skill Level: Beginner Tools: Stiff scrub brush [https://amzn.to/3akDSsw] Sponge [https://amzn.to/2XE0yRx] (OPTIONAL) Grout knife [https://amzn.to/2VwokfS] Shopping List: Dish soap [https://amzn.to/34H1HcA] Baking soda [https://amzn.to/2VD6982] White vinegar [https://amzn.to/3ctKy9b] Grout sealer [https://amzn.to/2ylHJrE] Steps for Cleaning Grout with Homemade Cleaner: 1. Fill a cup with warm water. 2. Add the baking soda to the cup to give the mixture grit. 3. Add a few drops of the dish soap to the cup. Mix everything together. 4. Pour the vinegar along the edges of the grout. Don’t do too much at once or the floor will be really wet and more difficult to work on. 5. Pour the mixture on top of the vinegar along the grout lines. 6. Scrub the grout lines with the stiff scrub brush. 7. After scrubbing, let the mixture sit for about five minutes. Then, scrub it again with the brush. 8. Wipe off the excess vinegar mixture with a sponge. Allow the floor to dry. It could take about 45 minutes. 9. (OPTIONAL) If that doesn’t work, try gently scraping the top layer of the grout with a grout knife. They’re meant for removing grout, so do this carefully. 10. Apply the grout sealer along all the grout lines. 11. Allow the sealer to dry for 3-4 hours. Then apply a second coat. 12. Repeat this sealing process every year, especially for light colored grout. Resources: Tom’s homemade solution for cleaning grout included concentrated dish soap, baking soda, and white vinegar. These can found at most grocery and department stores. Rather than using a toothbrush, Tom recommends using a cleaning brush [https://amzn.to/3akDSsw] with stronger bristles. They sell specialty grout cleaning brushes at most home centers in the Tile aisle. The one Tom used in the video is manufactured by QEP (https://www.qep.com/). If the stains are really deep in the grout, Tom recommends using a grout removal tool and lightly scraping it against the grout to remove the layer of grout that’s been stained. Do this cautiously. The grout removal tool Tom used [https://amzn.to/2VwokfS] in the video is also manufactured by QEP (https://www.qep.com/ ). Once the grout is clean, Tom suggests that sealing the grout once per year will prevent it from staining again. Tom used a TileLab Grout Sealer [https://amzn.to/2ylHJrE], which is manufactured by Custom Building Products (https://ift.tt/2He5baQ) and can be found at most home centers.

How to Read the Strength Card | Tarot Cards

Unlock the mysteries of Tarot: The Complete Guide to the Tarot: http://amzn.to/1Pj0Div The Tarot Bible: The Definitive Guide to the Cards: http://amzn.to/1LlxTzz Chakra Wisdom Oracle Cards: http://amzn.to/1hrj3zE The Essential Tarot Kit: Book and Card Set: http://amzn.to/1ZdkUu5 The Rider Tarot Deck Cards: http://amzn.to/1OmCOXQ Watch more How to Read Tarot Cards videos: https://ift.tt/3cxLsl3 Hello. This is Ellen Goldberg with Moment of Tarot from the School of Oracles. In this segment, we're gonna take a look at the strength card. This card is strength in a very interesting way because it is not the women taming the lion that is the strength. It's their mutual interaction and their union that is the strength. You would have to look carefully at the drawing that you see that there is a wreath of roses and it encircles both of them. Part of it is around her waist and part of it is around the lion's neck. This card shows us how we tame our animal nature because if we don't tame it, it will eat us alive. It's Hebrew letters, Tet, and this is the  first of three very particular letters in the Hebrew alphabet. They are called the serpent letters. In fact, Tet means snake, but the snake that they're referring to here is the same serpent energy that rises up the kundalini. This card is ruled by the satin of lia, and lia rules the spine when the kundalini rises. In Kabbalah, its intelligence is the secret of all magical activities. What secret is that? It's the taming of our inner animal nature through the correct use of suggestion to the subconscious because we don't repress it. We don't tell it off. We tame it. We love it. We embrace it, and we allow it to express itself so that it can feel free. You'll see that above her head, there is a lemniscate or infinity sign. We've only seen this one other place in the tarot so far over the head of the magician, it shows that she is female magic, where he is male magic. He is the magic of how to use the conscious mind correctly, and she is the magic of how to interact with the subconscious correctly. And it is mostly through the laws of suggestion. That red lion is an alchemical symbol for the completion of the great work of transformation of self-realization of the inner marriage. It is called in alchemy, oftentimes, "the taming of the red lion." So this is an alchemical card. This shows us the way to self-realization. Learn how to give suggestions. Learn how to use visualization because images are the primary language of the subconscious. Notice that she's dressed in white. There's a purity to her. There's something very much likely empress about her. When you have this card in a reading and it is dignified or in its highest polarity, they will show that you can give suggestion to the subconscious properly; that you can tame the nature; or that you have the strength to go through a difficult time and to act with courage and fortitude. It might even push out all the alchemical union, or that you're entering into the rubedo or red stage of alchemy in taming your own inner lion. When it's in its lower polarity, the lion has the upper hand, and things may be running wild, and you may not find the strength in the difficult time. You may not know how to work with the subconscious. Meditate on this card by allowing yourself to simply gaze at it. Learn how to kindly suggest to yourself through repetition what it is as if it were already true that you wish to have as your way of being in the world, and that's the way you'll achieve it.

How to Choose a Good Paint Roller | Ask This Old House

Ask This Old House painter Mauro Henrique explains the different types of paint rollers and then demonstrates good rolling techniques. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Cost: $10 and up Skill Level: Beginner Tools: Paint roller [https://amzn.to/39OjfVa] Paint tray [https://amzn.to/2UTDgFN] Shopping List: Paint roller brush [https://amzn.to/2wpkegZ] Paint [https://amzn.to/2XiC542] Steps for Choosing and Using a Paint Roller: 1. Mauro explains that paint roller brushes are measured by their nap length, which determines coverage and texture. a. Shorter naps, around ¼-inch length, are good for smooth surfaces because they can cover the surface in paint without applying too much texture. b. Medium length naps, around 3/8-inch length, are good for semi-rough surfaces because the slightly longer fibers can push paint into the dips in the surface, allowing for full coverage, but aren’t so long that they add additional texture to the surface. c. Long naps, around 1-inch thick, can soak up a lot of paint and will therefore add a ton of texture to the walls. They’re best for things like popcorn ceilings or other surfaces that already have a ton of texture to them. 2. Mauro also points out that the packaging for paint roller brushes are usually labeled with their nap length and what they’re best used for. 3. Mauro also shares a few roller techniques for painting: a. Fully saturate the roller in the paint tray before application. b. Apply the paint to the surface starting from the bottom of the surface and at a slight diagonal. c. Each pass should cover the previous pass by about 30% d. Don’t stop until the entire surface is covered. If some of the paint is allowed to dry before the surface is done, stroke marks can be left behind on the wall and make for a poor painting job. Resources: Mauro explained the paint rollers have different nap lengths based on the texture of the surface being painted. In general, a roller with a shorter nap is good for smooth surfaces, and a roller with a longer nap is good for rough surfaces.  The materials Mauro used to demonstrate these techniques, including the paint, the tray, and the roller, can all be found at home centers.

How to Build Kitchen Drawer Dividers | This Old House: Live

Ask This Old House carpenter Nathan Gilbert demonstrates how to build custom kitchen drawer dividers as part of This Old House: Live [https://bit.ly/TOHLive]—an initiative providing daily programming and opportunities to connect with our experts during these challenging times. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Cost: $25 Time: 4 hours Difficulty: Moderate Shopping List: ¼” poplar boards [https://ift.tt/2Vv9iaa] Wood glue [https://amzn.to/3bcGOZo] Brad nails [https://amzn.to/3abbatN] Tools: Measuring tape [https://amzn.to/3eyF0fo] Miter saw [https://amzn.to/34L0f9i] Palm sander [https://amzn.to/3b9ZlWg] Table saw [https://amzn.to/2VaNf9L] Brad nailer [https://amzn.to/2Vqy6ju] Router [https://amzn.to/34BdJ7t] Shipping blanket [https://amzn.to/2VzJeKQ] Steps for Building Kitchen Drawer Dividers: 1. Measure the inside of the drawer. Each drawer varies slightly, so it’s important to get an accurate measurement of the exact drawer the dividers are going into. 2. Transfer the measurements to a piece of paper and calculate the divider layout. Nathan suggests making the dividers slightly thinner than the kitchen drawer so it can be placed in and taken out of the drawer more easily. 3. Cut the boards to length using a miter saw. Nathan suggests cutting a little bit off the tip of the board to ensure you’re starting with a square end. 4. Sand all the boards smooth using 180 grit sandpaper. To keep the boards in place and prevent them from getting damaged on the table during sanding, try placing a shipping blanket underneath them.  5. Measure and mark the location for the dividers. 6. Cut the rabbets and dados in the boards to accept the dividers using a table saw. 7. Assemble the divider using wood glue and brad nails. 8. Chamfer the edges of the dividers with a router. Products & Resources from this Video: Nathan used ¼” poplar boards [https://ift.tt/2Vv9iaa], which he picked up in the hobby wood section at the home center. To secure the dividers together, Nathan used Gorilla Wood Glue [https://amzn.to/3bcGOZo].

The first thing you'll need of course is a juicer and I personally loved the Breville juicer because it's so easy to use which ensures that you'll stick to it. There are also other great juicers out there, some that are twin-blade masticating which create a very high quality juice and worth-considering as well. The second thing you'll want to have on hand for a juice fast is an enema bag, and my favorite enema bag is the Cara enema bag. There is the classic Cara enema bag as well as the fountain syringe, which basically the only difference is that the fountain syringe has an opening at the top so you can easily continue to refill the enema bag with fresh water. An alternative to using the juicer would be to use your local juice bar. An alternative to using the enema would be to schedule professional colonics with your local colon hydrotherapist. Some other items you might want to have on hand would be a rebounder, a body brush, and if you're lucky enough, an infrared sauna.

How to Cut a Perfect Jig Circle | Ask This Old House

Before doing any work to the router, be sure that the battery has been removed or the router has been unplugged. 2. Remove the base of the router by unscrewing it by hand or with a drill driver. 3. Place the router base on the ¼” board and trace the screw holes and the opening for the bit onto the board. 4. Drill holes in the locations of the screw holes using a countersink bit. The countersink bit will ensure the screws can sit flush with the base of the router, which will be important for cutting. 5. For the center hole, drill it out using a spade bit. 6. Determine the desired radius of the circle and then transfer that measurement to the board. Use the center of router bit hole as your starting point. 7. Drill a small hole at the measurement of the radius. This will eventually accept a nail and will act as a pivot point. 8. Attach the board to the router in place of the base. The screws and screw holes should all line up with the ones drilled in the board. 9. Secure the board being cut to the work surface with clamps or screws. 10. Determine the center of the board being cut by measuring diagonally from corner to corner. The intersection of the two lines is the center. 11. Place the router with the jig onto the board. Line the nail from the pivot point up with the center of the board and hammer it into the board. Be sure to not secure it too tightly, as you will still need the router to move easily. 12. Set the router bit just slightly past the depth of the jig. 13. Turn the router on and start cutting the board. Turn the jig at the pivot point as you cut. This will create a circle. 14. After the first pass, lower the router bit again and make a second pass. 15. Continue this process until the circle has been cut.

How to Read the Chariot Card | Tarot Cards

The chariot is a very ancient image.  This very same symbol has been used for time and memorial all over the world, and in the earliest references to the chariot that seems to describe this card so perfectly, comes from 800 years BC from the book of Akita, where they say the self, meaning the higher self, the self is the rider in the chariot of the body, of which the horses are the senses and the mind is the reigns. In our right of way deck, the horses have been exchanged for sphinxes, because the senses do pull us.  The black and white horse means are very similar, actually, to the black and white pillar on either side of the high priestess, affirmation and negation, the yes and the no in all things, will either pull towards something or pull away from something.  We want it, we don't want it, and these things, they're puzzling.  As they say, you have to understand your humanity.  You have to understand, says the riddle of the sphinx, how your senses work, how your humanity works, or it will devour you. You'll see that this rider has no reigns in his hands, because he controls the chariot through mental control, and that's why the reigns are invisible. The Hebrew letter associated with this card is chet, C-H-E-T, and it means "a field and defense the encloses the field."  That field represents our personality, in which so many, almost innumerable forces come to play to make us where we are, and we cultivate that field. It is ruled by the sign of cancer, and cancer rules the chest, which is also enclosed by a field, our ribs, a fence around the most vital organs of the body.  Cancer is considered one of the most receptive signs in the zodiac, and here, a very important idea associated with this card is receptivity to the will of the higher self.  The greatest most heroic deeds are done, not through the self, the small self, but letting the higher self work through you. This card tells us a great deal about the conditions to achieving this, because you notice that the chariot is not within the city.  It's outside of the city, across the river.  In other words, we need some time of seclusion.  We need private time in order to make this connection.  But if you meditate on this card, you can set up the flow of the inspiration of the self into you, and because this card is sometimes called "the victorious chariot," you can achieve great deeds. On the higher polarity, think victory.  Think influence of the higher self.  Think being mentally in control.  In the lower polarity you can be torn apart by those senses, pulled this way and that way, closed to higher influences, and perhaps, experiencing defeat.

How to Ground a Two-Prong Electrical Outlet | Ask This Old House

Ask This Old House master electrician Heath Eastman explains the purpose of a ground wire and then grounds an outlet for a homeowner. #ThisOldHouse #AskTOH SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Time: 3-4 hours Cost: $400 Skill Level: Professional Only Tools: Hammer [https://amzn.to/3c6UipD] Pliers [https://amzn.to/39SYiIN] Screwdriver [https://amzn.to/2JQauiN] Shopping List: NM cable [https://amzn.to/2Rn8piJ] Arc-fault breaker [https://amzn.to/2JS45ns] GFCI receptacle or grounded receptacle [https://amzn.to/2xWfHTA] Electrical staples [https://amzn.to/2UUAksr] Steps for Replacing Two-Prong Electrical Outlets: 1. Heath starts by explaining the purpose of a ground wire: a. To complete an electric circuit, power must be sent from the panel, through the hot wire, and back through the neutral wire. Under normal operating circumstances, the electric devices in a home should work without issue. b. If a device faults, meaning that the current in the circuit strays from the path for a variety of circumstances (water near exposed wires, two wires touching, etc.), that current will go wherever is easiest, which can create a shock hazard. c. A ground wire is a bare piece of copper that goes into the jacket of wiring with the hot and neutral wires. Due to its extreme conductivity, excess current from a fault will naturally travel on the bare copper and cause the breaker to trip. d. While the lack of a ground wire won’t prevent an electrical device from working properly, the ground wire is an important safety device that is now part of the electrical code. 2. In most cases, grounding a receptacle means running new wiring with a ground wire in it. Start by cutting power to the main electrical panel. 3. Run the NM cable from the panel to the location of the outlet. This process could result in a wide variety of obstacles, including getting the cable through floors and behind walls, or in this case, running the cable across basement joists and stapling them in place with electrical staples and a hammer. The ease of running the wire will determine the overall cost of the job. 4. Next, wire the receptacle. If an old two-prong receptacle is still in use, that will need to be replaced with either a three-prong receptacle (in living spaces) or a ground fault circuit interrupting receptacle (in bathrooms, kitchens and basements), depending on its location. Wiring will usually require a pair of pliers and a screw driver to secure the wires to the receptacle. 5. Back at the panel, wire the new wiring to a circuit breaker. In this case, Heath used an arc fault breaker and added it to the panel. The hot and neutral wire to the breaker, the neutral pigtails to the neutral bar, and the ground wire ties into the grounding bar. These wires can be secured with a screwdriver. 6. Turn the power back on. Resources: Any work that involves working on the electrical panel can be dangerous and should only be done by a licensed professional.  In this scenario, Heath found that none of the surrounding receptacles or their wiring were to code, so he removed and replaced them with a 12-2 NM cable and a single GFCI outlet. These materials can be found at any home center or electrical supply store. Expert assistance with this segment was provided by Eaton and Eastman Electric (https://ift.tt/33deNwD).

Start by cleaning the garage door with a cleaning solution of water and a small amount of a cleaning detergent. 2. Scrub the door clean and then hose it down with water. Allow the door to dry before moving on. 3. Protect the surrounding area with painter’s tape and drop cloths. The drop cloth will prevent any paint from spilling onto the driveway, and the painter’s tape can be used to protect the rubber gasket along the edges of the garage door from getting covered in paint. 4. Cut around any window panes using the angled brush. 5. Roll the rest of the garage door with the roller. Mauro suggests not cutting/rolling the whole door all at once, as that might cause the paint to dry in areas where you haven’t finished painting yet. 6. Allow the paint to dry for a few hours and then apply a second coat using the same techniques. Resources: To clean the doors, Mauro used a solution of water and TSP liquid soap [https://amzn.to/34m58Fq] To protect the rubber gasket on the garage door, Mauro taped them off using Frog Tape [https://amzn.to/2Xjxcrz]. Mauro painted the door using Benjamin Moore [https://ift.tt/2fofoq8] Aura Semi-Gloss exterior rated paint in Van Deusen Blue.
