As with all politicized issues, misinformation is true to follow. The global emission of CO2 from cars (~800 million) is 3-4 times that of all the ships put together.

Uh no. The US isn't using RFID on banknotes. Several European countries are, but not the US. That strip you're referring to is the "security thread" that takes an extraordinary effort to duplicate by counterfeiters. The most it does is glow green when you hit it with a blacklight. Passive...

Two low cost options:Try to see if you can get a used 15-20' length of 2" steel pipe, preferably galvanized. I've retired one used as a flag pole. The previous owner had placed two lengths of 6x6 concreted in the ground that were only about 4' high, spaced just a bit wider than the pipe. Then...

If you measured the resistance of a glow plug, and flipped the glow plug hot wire to a resistor with the same value, you can probably trick the ECU into thinking that the glow plug is still in circuit and the wiring for all of the relays is intact. Then you're able to control the glow plug with...

Most municipalities would outsource that sort of job to a contracting company that would ALREADY have the equipment and people who know what they're doing. I've seen suburbanites move out into the country with very large properties, and expect a nice neat lawn. That usually doesn't last long...

Not that long ago, the standard way of doing a well in freezing climates was to dig/bore a large access hole (3' or larger) down to below frost level (4-5' in our area), and have the well casing head at this point. My GP's cottage did (chunk of corrigated galvanized pipe for the access hold)...

We have a "new gravel driveway" too (after 30 on the old one), and didn't have problems. Here, invariably by the second snowfall, the ground is frozen, and plows or blowers will pick up very little gravel, and nobody uses "soft blades" - by which I mean snow removal companies, farmers, and home...

If he can read the markings on the wire, if it says "NMW" it's direct burial rated (Canada) but in the US it will be called UF instead. Depending on the supplier, it might have *both* labels on them. Standard household romex (NMD and NM) is not burial rated. There are splicing kits rated for...

Long days of slugging 4' logs into the FEL are getting a bit painful climbing in and out of the tractor. The wife enjoys driving it, but she needs a step stool to get on board. Neither of us are that flexible anymore. I have a local guy who'll cut/weld something up for me if I give him a...

I've bought 4 18W LED floods to use as work lights on my GC2410 off Ebay. Similar to these: Ebay I want to use a pair to light the work area for the backhoe (just about impossible to see anything at night behind the tractor) and a pair for the front when the FEL is in front of the headlights...

Hi, I joined to learn about maintaining and using my (new to me) Massey Ferguson GC2410 Loader/Backhoe (2010 I think). Fun little beast so far. A few minor problems that I'm fixing - a missing retainer pin on the BH elbow, and the top plate holding the left-most joystick to the BH control...
