Question #1:

Can I replace my downdraft electric stove with a range without a venting system? It's a slide in range.?

I need to replace a broken slide-in electric range with a downdraft with a cheaper one for renters. Can I leave the draft system but just replace with a regular electric range?

Question #2:

We want to replace an electric drop-in range with a gas slide in model?

Will the heat from the gas burners be too hot on the counter top that goes up the wall a behind the burners?

Question #3:

Where to begin on learning Guitar?

I am 28 years old and have ALWAYS wanted to learn to play guitar, I finally decided to stop wishing and start learning. I dont know where to get started, or what kind of guitar to get, but in the long run I would like to play southern rock, country and blues, I love the sound of a steel slide like george thorogood and the classic country sounds make by waylon jennings and johnny cash. But I also would love to be able to play classic hard rock like AC/DC and music like the Eagles and Skynard or CCR. Maybe thats a very wide range of sounds (and maybe it isn't I dont know the first thing about guitar playing.) Would it be smarter to start with an acoustic guitar? Or can I jump right into an electric? I plan on being mainly self taught with the help of youtube and all the websites or books I can find, but I dont know where to start for a guitar (and any other hardware I might need). Any suggestions and direction would be greatly appreciated.

Question #4:

What am I in for in converting a drop-in range to a freestanding or slide-in?

I have what I believe to be a drop-in electric range now, a Whirlpool model RS610PXK0. I am thinking about converting it to a freestanding, provided a freestanding will fit into the space between the counter tops, or a slide-in. This is mainly because the price of drop-ins is significantly higher than freestanding, perhaps due to popularity. Currently there is an electric baseboard heater below the range, which is no longer in use as I have converted to central heat. I suppose that will have to be ripped out. The Formica counter top will need to be cut, if I need to get all the way back to the wall with the new range. I am trying to figure out if there are any hidden gotchas I might run into before I go out and buy a new range. I will certainly do the measurements of the new unit to be sure it will fit in the space provided before I buy.

Question #5:

Where should i start when learning slide guitar?

I just picked up a glass slide from a local guitar shop, it fits on my ring and index finger, i had been interested in it for a while but i don't know where to begin. I've been playing guitar for about three, all self taught so I basically just know how to play. I have acoustic and electric guitars, can I play slide on both? What types of music can you play with slide guitar? Im a 17 year old girl who likes indie rock type stuff but when it comes to playing guitar my musical range is much wider. I have been looking online for websites that could help me but im a bit lost and don't quite understand the stuff im reading. Do you know of any sites that could help me? Or any video/ lesson type things too? If their is anything else i should know about learning slide please let me know :)

Question #6:

Question #7:

Taxpayers gave Chrysler $12 Billion to develop electric car, Fiat kills it. Can we get money back?

Click Here

Chrysler has disbanded a team of engineers dedicated to rushing a range of electric vehicles to showrooms and dropped ambitious sales targets for battery-powered cars set as it was sliding toward bankruptcy and seeking government aid.

The move by Fiat SpA marks a major reversal for Chrysler, which had used its electric car program as part of the case for a $12.5 billion federal aid package.

As late as August, Chrysler took $70 million in grants from the U.S. Department of Energy to develop a test fleet of 220 hybrid pickup trucks and minivans, vehicles now scrapped in the sweeping turnaround plan for Chrysler announced this week by Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne.

Question #8:

.38 Special or .380 for self defense?

I bought a house I could afford, rather than the house I wanted. That meant affordable monthly payments, and a house in a high crime neighborhood in Los Angeles. I have put in burglar bars. And burglar doors. And a burglar alarm. And a fence. I now have a big German Shepherd dog. And an electric gate. And flood lights. And a Ruger .22 Caliber Automatic Pistol. But I go to the pistol range and everyone just rolls their eyes when I say that my .22 is my self defense weapon. Everyone tells me the .22 is simply too weak for self defense. I have made friends with a guy at the shooting range who is out of work. He is selling his guns and he needs money. He will sell me a Smith and Wesson Licensed Production PPK Stainless Steel in .380 with four clips, nylon holster, a case, and three boxes of fmj ammo for $400. Or he will sell me a Smith and Wesson Model 64 Stainless Steel Heavy Barrel .38 special with heavy barrel, double action only, with a bobbed hammer, a leather holster, with a case and four boxes ammo, 2 of 158 gr roundnose, and 2 of 110 gr +P Hollowpoint ammo for $400. But he wants the money NOW. I have the cash, but I don't want to be a fool and be taken. There is apparently a government fee too, because we have to go to a gunshop, and seal the deal there, with paperwork. Neither gun thrills me. Neither one seems like a good deal. I am a very small, slight man, not much over five foot tall, and not all that much over a hundred pounds. I would go with the PPK, but I can barely pull back the slide. The Model 64 .38 special is simple to use, but for a small man my size, it seems huge. Are either of these a good deal, or should I just say "No, thanks." . A lot of people have told me to get a Mossberg 12 guage shotgun, but that is out of the question. I fired one. Never again, thanks. And I fired it with birdshot. I was told it was twice as bad with buckshot. I can shoot both the .380 and the .38, and more or less hit the black part of the target at 7 yards, but both are at the upper limit of what I can handle in terms of size, complexity, and recoil.

Question #9:

Range installation: My existing stove/oven is hard wired, drop in style and I want a new one but don't know?

about installation and models. Is there a problem w/getting a free standing one or slide in one? I know I'll probably need to do some cutting under the drop in to make room for a free standing w/a drawer, but any major issues? Also, which is more costly or difficult, getting it set up for a gas stove, or plug in electric? I'm told that the plug in one will need an electrician to set up an outlet since the current one is hard wired. Help!

Question #10:

Will I need to install a new 220/240 volt outlet for my electric stove top?

I just recently bought a house that was built in 1977. It has a really old electric stove top. I think it is from the early 1980's. I bought a used newer electric stove top. I am just wondering is my old range hardwired directly to the circuit box, or will there be an outlet behind the range. Unfortunately I do not have access to the house yet, so I am not able to verify myself. The electric stove is a drop-in/slide in type. It is yellow in color. I think it is a whirlpool, but I am not sure.

Question #11:

My ideas for building a guitar... Are they realistic?

I've been playing guitar for a while, so I really want to do something interesting, like building an electric guitar. I've had a lot of ideas, so I would like to know how difficult/expensive this project will be. I love the sound of Brian May's (Queen guitarist) guitar, the Red Special. However, I don't believe in buying signature guitar models. I think it's stupid. I would like to get a similar sound out of my guitar, though.

First, the body. Where do I even start? There are a few unique features I'd like my guitar to have - pickup switch controls, pickup lighting, and volume slides.

One cool thing that I've thought about (and I'm not sure if this has been done), is that I want buttons to control which pickups are activated. I want 3 Burns Tri-Sonic pickups, so I would have 3 buttons, each button corresponding to a particular pickup. This would simply be an alternative to Strat-style or LP-style switches.

Another idea I thought about is the activation of the pickups themselves. This is probably my favorite idea - I want blue LEDs all around the pickups. When a pickup turns on, the lights turn on. This will make it very clear which pickups I'm using at all times. A love the idea, but I realize that it will probably require a battery or some other power source in the guitar.

Finally, my last idea. It isn't my favorite, but I like it because it is pretty unique and it would be kind of fun. Instead of volume knobs, like on an LP or Stratocaster, I want slides. Something like what you would see on a soundboard. Ranging from 1 to 10, I could slide the plastic or wooden piece up and down to change the volume. I may do the same for the tone, which also often uses knobs.

Now that my fantasies are over... How much of that is possible? I know very little about wiring or building a guitar, so I may need to get someone to do it for me. How much would it cost to do this? Where would I get an appropriate body that would allow for buttons, LEDs, and slides? Where can I get a 24 fret ebony neck? Or headstock?

Question #12:

Why don't the electric clippers work on my dog?

Hi, I own two Maltichon's (maltese x bichon frise) they have a hypoallergenic coat, thus do not shed, and have very thin, soft hair. They also have a tight curl in their coat, but it does however grow quite long.

I have brought like 4 different types of electric clippers, ranging in price from $20 - $120, some have been human clippers as well as 'dog' clippers.

None of them work! I do not understand why. the hair simply slides through the clippers or a minimal amount is "clipped" but i suspect the hair is just getting stuck and the clippers are acting like a harsh, cruel comb.

Can anyone explain this too me? I have given up, Just scissoring their coat for the moment. Which is still effective but not as Professional looking as i would like.

Thankfully my dogs are quite tolerant, and have not developed any fear of the clippers.
we have taken the clippers apart a million times, tried different angles, different tightness of the screws. oiling them.

when i use the clippers i make sure the flat of the clipper blade is against my dogs skin, so the hair will slide through propperly. I try going against the grain, with the grain even sideways to the grain of hair growth! =P

I shampoo, condition, hairdry and throughly comb prior to attempting to use the clippers. So there is no matted fur!!

Question #13:

So, what do you think of the music selection?

Question #14:

What is a good brand for a Slide in Electric range?

We are renovating our kitchen and are looking to get a slide in electric range oven. What would be a good brand? Which one should we avoid?
Thanks!

Question #15:

Do they make electric slide in ranges with charcoal downdraft filter?

looking for the above

Question #16:

Can you replace a drop in electric range with a slide in?

The house my husband and I are thinking about buying has a drop in electric range that is at least 25 years old (original to the house). We really want to replace the appliances in the kitchen with newer, energy efficient models. I've priced drop in ranges and they're pretty high dollar. We can buy a basic slide-in at Lowes for about $600.00.

It looks like we would only need to rip out the bottom part of the cabinetry under the original stove but we're not sure if any special connection is needed.

Question #17:

Stove outlet wiring- 220 w/3 wires to 3 + ground plug?

We have a very old house. It will be very very hard to run a 4th wire, especially at a large gauge, to the stove. Question is this- the constant/white and the ground both hook up the same on our panel (yes, old panel). So basically, were they color coded, we would have black, red, and a white or green to the outlet. The plug provided for the stove requires black, red, white, and green. As the white and ground are connected in the same way at the box, and the old stove was wired with only the 3 total wires (should have taken pictures before unhooking the old outlet!!) could the ground be left off? Would the new 4 wire stove still function? Could the white/ground be split since it's got either 6 or 4 ga strand wire and then be the white and the ground?
Here is a link to the stove, if it's relevant: Click Here
Thank you!
I will try to get a picture, but here's an expanation: There are a bunch of breakers in 2 rows in the middle, vertically, like any panel. Above the breakers, the main comes in. Next to that, there are 2 rows of the slots where you stick the wire in and tighten the screw. Both are exactly alike and hold grounds and commons. I've already had an electrician out and 2 friends who do reasonable amounts of electrical work. The 2 strips serve for ground and common, where they would be separated on a newer panel. We didn't keep the old outlet because, well, it was old and nasty. I know for a fact that 2 wires are hot and connected to the legs of a 220 breaker. I know for a fact that the 3rd wire is connected to the common/ground strip. I live in south GA. And I don't have the thousands of dollars for an electrical overhaul on my grandfathered in system. Really, we're moving a stove outlet from an old location a few feet over. It's just that we got a new plug and outlet instead of using the old
And I have it resolved- they sell a 3 wire plug that fits my stove at the appliance shop. But I will still choose the answer that best considers the information available. Thanks for the help so far!

Question #18:

Where can I find FREE consumer reports on a Jenn-air downdraft gas range?

Question #20:

Epiphone Les Paul vs. Fender Stratocaster?

I play a Squire Telecaster (my first electric guitar), and I definitely think it's time for a new guitar. My main problems are the extremely high, slow action, the awful tone, the pickups (barely sense tapping and hammer-ons and pull-offs), and the tuning heads (barely stays in tune long enough for me to play a song).
When looking at possibilities for a new guitar, I've found that the Fender Stratocaster and the Epiphone Les Paul seem to be the highest quality guitars in my price range. In a new guitar, I'm looking for something that will give me:
1. An all-around great sound. Whether I'm playing clean or with heavy distortion, I want a nice tone.
2. Versatility. I'm mainly going to be playing hard rock/metal, but I want a guitar that can achieve a superior meta sound as well as softer tones/bluesy tones, etc.
3. Ease of play. It is preferable for the strings to be low to the fretboard and easy to bend/slide.
Between the two guitars, which fills the above specifications better?
