    We have a hood over the range that we want to replace with a slim over-range microwave with exhaust. I was told that microwave would have to have it's own dedicated electric line. Is this true? TIA!

    @kok328 The light comes on when I open the door. Is it possible that the thermal fuse is bad and needs replacing?

    Whirlpool WED5521SQ0 dryer : no heat, the bin is not rotating

    @Snoonyb here's what happens with the start button: when I press it once, it clicks like it usually does, although the machine does not start. When I push it the second time, it "sinks" and does not click. But if I open and close the dryer door, then press start it clicks again and so on. So...

    I have a WED5521SQ0 dryer that's about 13 years old. Stopped working: the light comes on when I open the door, but when I push the start button, the bin is does not move and there is no heat.

    Looking for cover/"lid" ideas for a workbench

    Won't work. Tried that with the workbench that was there before that. :) It created a sauna underneath and the top -- which was an old door like this one -- rotted after about 1 hot and humid summer.

    Looking for cover/"lid" ideas for a workbench

    I have this 60x36 workbench on my patio and I need to remove the canopy that's covering it. What I want to do is to buy or make some sort of cover/"lid" that would cover the top to protect it from the elements. It only needs to extend over the top, it does not need to cover the whole w/b to the...
