Where I came from, we stored the boats on lifts (hoists, racks, whatever.) Keeps the algae from growing on the undersides, and (unless the lift breaks) you needn't worry about sinkage. Also allows yo

I'll suggest trying white vinegar. It will neutralise the alkaline rodent piss and clears many evil smells. If that doesn't do it, then apply baking soda atop the previous applications, allow it to s

Be VERY careful following this advice. Ground and neutral _are_ tied together at the service entrance, but should never be tied together anywhere else. Neutral is a current carrying conductor and can

To check calibration, I'd compare it to a beam-type wrench. Clamp the clicker in some soft jaws and use two sockets with an all-thread joining nut connecting them together. Set the clicker and pull w

I don't think you'll get sufficient resolution from normal GPS receivers -- their resolution is in the hundreds of feet. Would the airport manager allow you to set surveyors metal disks or such into

No guarantee, but if I were designing the circuitry, the lead that carries power would also serve as the signal -- with nothing interrupting the beam, current flows; when something interrupts the bea

Detecting changes in current is quite easy. There are lots of other ways to do this, but most of them would cost more (use digital signal impressed on top of supply current,) so my guess still stand

The real issue is that as you rotate the engine, each lifter is put into a loaded position, and leaks down. So, by the time you are ready to start the engine, they are all collapsed. Immediately the
