Halogen to CFL conversion for torchiere
I could have posted this in Energy I suppose. I've had a torchiere halogen lamp since at least high school, and it moved to college, to my two apartments, and how it's been in my house for 6+ years. It originally accepted the 300W halogen bulbs, though I had switched to the 150W years ago since 300W...

MiniSIM to microSIM
This is kind of weak because I have no pics. But my mother-in-law wanted to upgrade from a phone taking a miniSIM to a phone taking a microSIM. Except I didn't realize the phone I recommended took a microSIM until we got home and I tried to put her SIM in it. There are directions all over the place ...

Powered my house from an inverter
And that inverter was connected to my car. Yup. Back during Blizzard Nemo (2013), we lost power for 48 hours. Which wasn't too bad, but it was cold as hell. What's fun about this setup is I was toying with the idea for years (and most seriously in the October 2012 time frame) and before the blizzard...

Re: Maxima exhaust saga
I actually have an old Samsung P&S that I had before my Fuji (which is also 5 years old). It takes AA's which is actually good as I can use NiMH.

Camaro Z/28 @ Nurburgring
Damn. http://www.autoweek.com/article/20131015/CARNEWS/131019880 I maintain that the Nurburgring actually makes cars better. It requires delicate chassis tuning (and power and brakes) to get around the track fast. It is far from a flat track, so the suspension must perfect the balance between stiffn...

Re: Fleetwood repairs
The EGR valve is very easy even with the engine installed. If you happen to have a new valve, you can replace it. Though, you will have ample opportunity to inspect the passages, which can get clogged. There is a tube that runs from the passenger side manifold to the EGR mounting boss on the intake....

Re: 3 Baths at Last!
Nice! And a pressure balancing shower, at that. I was thinking about a recommendation/star system, by the way. That way while browsing, you could see what was a productive thread or not (based on popular opinion I guess). Also while searching, the same thing. But that requires add-ons. The point is,...
