    When vinegar won't clear shower sprayers

    OK, got the CLR in a small bottle, ~$5.00 with vets discount. Followed the directions, it worked worse than water would. Got exasperated, decided it was gonna work or I'd have a melted mass, so soaked the showerhead overnight in pure CLR, and it worked great. No apparent damage to anything but...

    Lazy Susan Built-in Sticks on Stop

    I like that idea. Maybe so. I'll try in a couple days when I'm done with a project. Thanks.

    Lazy Susan Built-in Sticks on Stop

    Thanks, I thought of that, too, but it's a bit difficult to access. I'll try again, maybe I wasn't giving it enough. One thing, the nylon part has a slot, but not shaped like a screw slot. It's more football shaped. But the hole is large so a big screwdriver works OK. The bottom line here...

    No, no notches. There is a nylon-looking circular fitting in the bottom of the ball bearing device, visible from below as the device perforates the shelf. But turning it seems to have little effect. I have to talk to manufacturer.

    Lazy Susan Built-in Sticks on Stop

    The turntables themselves lie about a quarter inch above the respective shelves. The manufacturer tells me it is a simple ball-bearing lazy susan (two plates separated by a ring of balls), as opposed to some of the adjustable ones mounted on an axle. I continue to puzzle over what I am supposed...

    Speaking to the cabinet installers, they told me that the height of the ball can be adjusted, from the bottom of the fitting. I have tried it with the upper one, which is more accessible. No luck so far, but I have a diagram to work with.

    Lazy Susan Built-in Sticks on Stop

    Oh. I think I see. I have to shrink or crop the pictures down to the required size. I'll try.

    Hm. Apologize. I clearly don't understand this forum and how it works. I'd be glad of suggestions on how to attach pix.

    Here are two photos attached as files. Top fitting and lower fitting. Hope this helps.

    I have pictures of my two fittings. But I don't see how to post them. When I click on the Image button, it asks for a URL. Sorry, can anyone explain this?

    Lazy Susan Built-in Sticks on Stop

    We bought a house with a corner inset cupboard with two lazy susan shelves. Each shelf is mounted on an axle which in turn is mounted on a separate shelf (call it the base shelf) below the lazy susan shelf. Near the front of the base shelf on the user's left, there is a ball bearing mounted in...

    Wow. That's intimidating. I'll look it over.

    Thanks for replying. These holes are way, way finer than a toothpick.

    Thanks, looks like that's something I'll have to resort to.

    When vinegar won't clear shower sprayers

    I have a shower head with really teeny little holes (white plastic) that are now about 70% plugged. That is, I have no more than 30% performance. I tried white vinegar a while ago, when spray was at 60%, but only recovered about 10-15% of the plugged holes. Is there any other solution other...

    Re-coloring flat, tarpaper roof; sealing

    I see the Elastomeric product Oldog suggested. Looks like something I could do. Adding insulation (that we could walk on, as we occasionally do) looks more problematic, to me. Maybe not. I appreciate both suggestions and am going to investigate them.
