The cause of the burnout is caused by burning the earth wire. 1. Change the earth wire first. 2. Remove the neutral wire with the red mark. 3. Replace the two burnt communication wires. Last time we suggest that the earth wire must grounded well. Please check attached picture.

Kitchen Cabinet Doors
Having seen one of my earlier attempts at making kitchen cabinet doors (which weren’t all that great), my wife informed me that she wanted new kitchen cabinet doors for her birthday. A little background. Our kitchen cabinets are original to the house (and made to look like the dark, rather tacky looking Tudor design which was popular back then), which was built in 1972. Made of 1/2 inch particle board, they were covered in this sort of industrial grade contact paper stuff, which had...

This bookshelf was built using walnut to follow the existing architecture of the home and to spruce up the curved drywall corners that where previously installed as the ache.

New house building project #7: WE MOVED!
Yesterday we finally started to move, last night was the first night in the new house. We have a long way to go to have all our stuff up the hill in the new house, and the house needs still a lot of detailing and fixing.

Building a new deck #1: The Start
Well I was working on building the deck and I kept saying. Take some pictures. But, it didn’t get done. These pictures are from before putting on the deck surface. The deck is placed just outside a small deck that goes between the screened porch and the Solarium. We have a spa in the Solarium room. The deck is basically 16’ X 16’. It’s 14 feet to the beginning of the curved edge. One end is tapered to match the sidewalk that goes around the house. I’...
