    How to cut a stainless steel sink?

    I have a commercial stainless steel sink wife wants to use in our mudroom. I need to enlarge the hardware holes to accept the hardware my wife chose. I need to go from 1 1/8" holes to 1 11/4" holes roughly. I tried a jigsaw with a metal blade but that wasn't going to "cut it". Need suggestions...

    Hip replacement and hunting

    Hunting from the ground will grow on you. I now hunt about 50% from the ground and it is very exciting and rewarding. Hope you heal quickly and can enjoy some good time outdoors. Try a ghillie suit. I have had deer within 5' of me that never knew I was there.

    Plumber help please

    I like the idea of no joints with the 1-1/2" IPS SDR11 PE4710 Black Hdpe Pipe 500' Coil If I can find the proper fittings to connect to 1" PEX and 1 1/4" PVC at the ends. I can run PVC but if I can eliminate all those joints, sounds good to me. I guessed at the 500', so I need to measure.

    I have to run a waterline 500ft from my well to my new house. What size and type line would you run? I was thinking 1.5" but don't know if PEX or PVC would be better. Code here says bury minimum 1' here.

    2 stroke boat motor acting up

    It sounds like to me that this motor has been run hot, over heated and now the rings are weak. Had a friend that had the exact same symptoms. He had to have his rebuilt to fix it. The proof will be in a compression test when the motor has been run for 30 minutes or so. First check all 4...

    Most expensive thing you lost while hunting

    My wife and I were driving separate vehicles on an out of state turkey hunt. She laid her backpack on the tailgate of my truck to run in to the bathroom. I drove off not knowing the tailgate was down and about the pack. She called a bit later and I pulled over. Never found the pack, prolly...

    Nausea while flying?

    If you have time, get a prescription for Scopolamine pills, not the patch. Your doc will have to write it. Take 2 at least 1 hour before flight/boat/fight with your wife. NO MORE SICK. It will give you slight cotton mouth.

    Weight loss meals

    Bingo, you will greatly help yourself for the rest of your life if you can change your mind set. Instead of thinking "I want another or bigger serving of that" try to think, "I can get by with a smaller serving and no 2nds." I got up to the heaviest I had ever been at 58 years old, felt like...
