    Carpet Pro! (With pics)

    A few of you may remember me posting a thread about my grandma buying a new vacuum. I want to thank you all for your input and opinions. In the end, she decided to go with a Carpet Pro, because it seemed most like her Panasonic. Its the model CPU-75T. The box...

    I need recommendations.

    We should all know modern vacuums are not my area of expertise unless we're talking Kirby's, lol. But my grandmas Panasonic took a dump and isn't working anymore. She wants a new vacuum. These are her specifications: No canisters like Electrolux, Rainbow, etc., and can't be overly expensive, lik...

    Full time farmer. Heh. I'd like to find a job as either a welder or mechanic once I get out of high school, as a side job to the farm.

    What are our other hobbies/interests?

    I live on a fairly large farm, so naturally I'm obsessed with tractors and other farm equipment. I enjoy just about any kind of engine. I just tore apart a lawn mower engine for the heck of it. And I repaired an old generator last week. I also collect pocket knives. And I'm kind of a...

    Tradition safety switch issue-(pic heavy)

    I went to run my beloved Trad today, only to find out it wouldn't turn on! I turned out the safety switch was cracked. I took it off and found this: None I the wires were connected in the first place! Only the green and yellow wire would return to their places if I replaced the cover.

One of my friends melted a bunch of pennies (pre 1987, th ones that are pure copper)with a blowtorch into a solid...

    Kirby Logo History

    The logo stayed generally the same from the 500 series to the classic series. Ten when the Generations came out it got quite simplistic. (Oh the gripes I have about that logo.) I have to say, their '70's through '80s logo was by far the best.

    Our collections...

    I have around 30, give or take. I really can't have any more, having that many scums around really bugs my household...but at least they let me have and keep this hobby, which I'm grateful for.
