1 tablespoon
vegetable oil
onion, chopped
1 pound
lean ground beef
1 teaspoon
dried basil
1 clove
garlic, minced
1 cup
green beans
1 cup
tomatoes, diced
potatoes, cooked and mashed
egg, beaten
1/2 cup
1/4 cup
shredded Cheddar cheese
I think Ginger P. has given us a terrific basic recipe that you can change to suit your own tastes! My husband and I really like bold flavors, so here are my modifications. I seasoned the meat heavily by adding garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, basil, and a small pinch of red pepper. I too, added 1 bag of frozen mixed veggies, thawed in the microwave. Once I had my meat mixture, onion, spices, and veggies combined, I added 1 can of cream of mushroom soup. Also, I doubled the potatoes. I mashed them with 1 small can of evaporated milk, and 1/2 stick of butter, 1 egg, salt, pepper, and some garlic powder. Oh and every chance I get now, I substitute ground CHICKEN for ground beef! I saw it earlier this year at the grocery and decided to try it. It is SO good, and not at all like the flavor of ground turkey which can be very stong. This dish turned out SO good and was very flavorful! Play around with it and have fun :-)
This did not knock our socks off but it's an easy recipe to play around with...adding or taking away what you like. Instead of adding the canned tomatoes and green beans, I used a can of tomato soup with vegetables and a can of corn. I also seasoned my ground beef really well, using different spices to prevent that "bland" taste. I topped this with a handfull of cheddar. You can also prepare this the night before and leave in the fridge. Just don't add the cheese until your ready to bake.

Considering I enjoy bolder flavors & shepherd's pie can be somewhat bland, I made this for a church potluck & doubled the ingredients - using 1 lb of spicy breakfast sausage & 1 lb of lean ground beef (like my family does meatloaf), browned the meats with the minced garlic & diced onion (instead of sauteed in oil) & drained the fat. Added a packet of dry beef & onion soup mix with 2 cups of water & brought that to a simmering boil. Disolved a few tablespoons of corn starch in another cup of cold water adding slowly to mix. Voila! Instant beefy/onion gravy! Spread that out in my baking dish & layered the drained diced tomatoes, green beans, with an added a can of drained corn. Lightly salted the layerd veggies. Always running late, I chose to use boxed dehydrated real potatoes (4 cups of water, 1 cup milk, 1/2 stick butter, 1/2 tsp salt, boiled then added 4 cups of dry potatoes. Instead of the additional cup of water, I used a cup of sour cream & then mixed in the beaten egg)! Using a disposable force-bag & a wide tip, topped everything with the high peaked potato stars. (Appearance and presentation is everything at church potlucks!) Nicely filled a 9X13 deep baking dish. Baked 25 minutes until potato peaks started to become light golden brown, topped with the cheese & baked another 10 minutes until the cheese melted. Voila! The ladies were impressed & asked me how I did it ... ... That's always a wonderful compliment for a guy who enjoys cooking & good eats!
I made this with a few modifications, after reading other reviews, and evaluating my pantry. Firstly, I ommitted the oil, because I didn't think it was necessary, and added more fat. I browned the ground beef with the chopped onion, and about 2-3 teaspoons garlic powder, as I didn't have any garlic on hand. After draining the fat from the beef, I added 1 can of cream of mushroom soup, and half a packet of dry onion soup mix. I then added the green beans and tomatoes, and also a can of corn. It was plenty to fill a 9x13 dish, so I doubled the potatoes. I actually used 6, because they were smaller. I didn't add any water to the potatoes, just a tiny bit of milk for creaminess, and stuck with one egg, even though I had tripled the potatoes. I made a mistake and topped it with cheese before baking, instead of later on, but it turned out just fine. This is a wonderful dish that has been added to my list of staple meals for our family. My husband just loved it, and we didn't even put ketchup on it! (That's saying a lot; I eat ketchup on everything.) So thanks for a great recipe!
Excellent basic recipe to run with. As a suggestion for a more "dishy" dish, try tweaking the topping by mixing the cheese into the mashed potato topping and also adding a bit of sour cream and chopped green onions. Lovely and rich!
This could be an excellent base for your own pie. First - not enough mashed taters! Double it, plus the cheese (mix in the cheese with the taters and make sure you add milk and butter when you mash. Heavenly. Secondly, there is no gravy with this recipe. I usually add beef broth thickened with a roux to the meat and veggies. Also, the meat is bland so I added a bit of garlic powder and a couple teaspoons of worcestershire sauce and it really made a difference. We're Australian, so this pie is daily fare in Oz. Sometimes I've even added a couple teaspoons of horseradish to the potatoes - a little goes a long way, but it sure adds a lovely taste. Good basic recipe.
Fancy food it is not, but a downright awesome staple food it is! Tweaked it a little using corn and peas as it seemed the versions I ate in London and in Boston had these veggies. I was tempted not to add the egg to the mashed potatoes, but don't...some kind of reaction happens and the taters fluff up tremendously, making them not so heavy and much easier to spread over the beef mixture. As other reviewers suggested, I added quite a bit of seasoning to my taste. Definitely a keeper. Thanks, Ginger!
This recipe turned out awesome!! I agee with some of the others to use more potatoes. I used for small potatoes, which would be equivalent to the two called for in this recipe. Next time I will use four large potatoes. I also added a dash of red wine and seasoning salt to the ground beef before sautee-ing. Very flavorful!! Will definately make this again!!!

I'm a Nursing student who currently works as Clinical Nurse Extern in Labor and Delivery. I work 3, 12-hour shifts weekly and at the end of a work day my lower back, calves, and feet literally burn. I leave work feeling like a truck has run me over. I had been researching massage chairs for quite some time and I even made an appointment to get a Full Body massage at a local "High End" Spa. I paid $100 for a 1 hour Swedish massage. My experience in-store with the UAstro was beyond remarkable. I had to make the purchase. My 1 hour massage at the Spa was nothing compared to the 10 minutes I spent in the UAstro. I'd recommend this chair to every working person who spends hours on their feet. It's such a pain-relieving, soothing experience after a long day of work. I'm currently awaiting the arrival of my UAstro 2 and I'm actually going to have a Massage Party for my friends and family to try it out. I'm in love and I'll be able to get a full body massage every night for the rest of my life. Thank you Brookstone and the makers of the UAstro and UAstro 2!!!

I bought one of these chairs over a year ago and could not accept delivery due to the fact that the chair air bags did not function. Delivery people could not read the manual and did not speak English??? Brookstone did not respond in any way until I called the Washington Square store 2 weeks later. Returned chair for refund.
Tried again in November 2013(4 months ago) and they delivered a chair with a hole in the side from a Forklift tyne. Chair has deteriorated since delivery and now makes whirring noises and other sounds. Rollers for left and right side of back do not massage evenly either. Problem was noted on delivery receipt. Once again Brookstone did nothing to contact me. Went to store 2 weeks later and they were not even aware of the issue. Finally talked to Stacey at Brookstone and she said they would replace the chair right away. This was more than 2 months ago. Just called Kevin at store and he told me they have now sold out of the chairs?!?
This company has NO CUSTOMER SERVICE WHATSOEVER.

I owned the chair for 2 weeks & it stopped working 5 times.When I called the company to return the chair, they said they could send someone to fix it or charge me $500 dollars to restock it. I pointed out my invoice said it was only $300 to restock. This is my second massage chair from Brookstone. Unfortunately, I will never buy from them again & strongly advise others from purchasing this chair .

Comments about OSIM? uAstro?2 Zero Gravity Massage Chair:
I bought the chair & extended warranty direct from Brookstone and started having major problems with the chair in less than 3 years. The warranty company tried to repair it several times over the course of a year and something else kept going wrong with it. I even requested a new chair and they told me no. Once it was out of warranty period and still not fixed, Brookstone told me there was nothing else they could do and it was up to me to repair it. They gave me 3 repair companies to choose from. One of those companies no longer works on the chairs, the other wants to charge $265.00, just to look at it and the third charges $225.00 just to look at it. If the chair is not fixable, you do not get any money back. I am beyond disappointed and dismayed that such a large company does not stand behind their product, when a demonstrated and proven service call history can be shown that this is a mechanical malfunction. I would not recommend that anyone spend this large amount on a product that even the repair companies advise people are hard to work on and obtain parts for and that the repair companies cannot even fix. This chair literally cost me over $1,000.00 per year of use and I would have been much better off buying actual massages and not dealing with a company that just caused me further discomfort and aggravation.

Comments about OSIM? uAstro?2 Zero Gravity Massage Chair:
A great chair. I have had it a little over two years and had no problems until I moved. I had special movers that Brookstone said I had to use or the warranty would be voided, move the chair for about $400 to my new home and then it quit working in a week. I had it fixed, and then it stopped working about two months later. I am very glad I bought the extended warranty because I love the chair and it would probably be very expensive to have it fixed. Considering that it worked great until it was moved, I suspect the moving caused the problems. Hopefully after the next fix, it will be alright again. I don't regret buying the chair.

Comments about OSIM? uAstro?2 Zero Gravity Massage Chair:
The chair is comfortable but customer service was horrible. Chair did not arrive until 3.5 weeks after ordering. The last leg (the company that assembles the chair near your city) kept delaying the delivery without any update. I ended up asking for days off to work from home for a week hoping that the chair would deliver that day, as the company kept promising. If OSIM has another authorized dealer I would never shop with Brookstone.

Comments about OSIM? uAstro?2 Zero Gravity Massage Chair:
This is really uncomfortable. Just sitting in it without doing anything you feel these really hard round lumps against your back. The lowest settings were too high for me. The arm rest is really weird. Too high to rest your arms, you can only put them in the "sleeves." Too complicated remote. Great in-store salesman (Cincinnati) who even offered to be in my house when it was shipped out to make sure all was fine. I overlooked his bare feet in flip flops and his bare legs in shorts. For a high end store, not the best look. Very disappointed I couldn't buy this chair. For all that money there should be a setting that plumps out the chair so it feels normal, for when you don't want to torture yourself...

Comments about OSIM? uAstro?2 Zero Gravity Massage Chair:
Contemplated buying this seat for years. Finally had the chance to buy it, and its great. Took a while to swallow the high price but in the end its worth it. Sometimes I fall asleep while at zero gravity position, which is the reason why I bought this model. The foot rest isn't the best at zero gravity for a person smaller then 5'7" and if your a tall person you do have to extend your legs to keep the legs massager down. Neck massage is Velcro adjustable and not the best, but when set up perfectly does provide a nice pressure to back of the neck and shoulders. Delivery was OK, they only had an Allen key for hard to reach spots, I offered a ratchet and hex tip to assemble to make it easier. Ive read all reviews on this site about bad service and damaged product. Mine came fine, delivery was fine, all massagers work in sync and airbags work perfect. Me and my wife love it and we are 30.

Dancing With the Stars, NCIS and Modern Family are doing fine without you. But, with the TV networks looking at ratings during the annual November advertising sweeps, we thought it time to recommend a few good shows that could use your attention. Here are nine in a variety of categories we can say are the best shows you're not watching — plus an online bonus.
Best New Drama
The sudsy ABC show that bears Music City's name is testament to country music's continuing evolution: Ravishing Connie Britton's relatively old-school country diva Rayna James (that's Shania and Faith old school, not Dolly or Loretta) squares off against Hayden Panetierre's rising starlet Juliette Barnes (think Taylor Swift). Nashville weaves cutthroat city politics and familial squabbles into all that country conflict. Britton is as brilliant here as she was on Friday Night Lights. The music is pretty good, too.
Best Returning Drama
Over four seasons, this NBC series has beautifully expanded from adaptation of a 1990s movie to become one of the finest grown-up dramas on television. The large Braverman family and its many joys and crises feel real — sometimes, as in the case of one character's ongoing battle with breast cancer, almost too real — and so do the intergenerational relationships and sibling rivalries. The writing is Emmy-worthy, and there is plenty of fine acting, particularly by Craig T. Nelson and Bonnie Bedelia, who often provide tiny moments of resonance. A recent episode combined both, ending with the elder Bravermans sitting on their porch swing listening to "A Whiter Shade of Pale."
Best Returning Comedy
The Middle
Destined to live in the shadow of its ABC Wednesday night lineup-mate, Modern Family, The Middle is just as funny as the Emmy-winning Family — and probably more like the way most of us live. As a working-class, Midwestern couple struggling to get by with three challenging kids, Neil Flynn and Patricia Heaton are perfectly calibrated to deal with the chaos around them. The kids are a hoot, too.
Best Guilty Pleasure
The D.C. drama that debuted on ABC to little fanfare last spring perfectly balances the fine mix of gravitas and cheesiness required of a true guilty pleasure. For gravitas, how about the backdrop of the nation's capital, all those iconic buildings teeming with powerful people, including — you guessed it — the president himself? For pure cheese, you get weekly tabloid tales, plus a U.S. president who's as much creepy stalker as commander in chief. Tony Goldwyn is great as the POTUS who can't keep it in his pants, and Kerry Washington, the real star of the show, is fantastic, too, as the "fixer." Watch it once. We bet you'll be back for more.
Best Morning Show
CBS This Morning
NBC's Today show has all the (unwanted) drama, with cohosts spinning quickly through the revolving doors at 30 Rock, and ABC's Good Morning America, now highest-rated of the big three, has the hip factor. But CBS This Morning, still the ratings underdog, has Charlie Rose, who got the job earlier this year at age 70. Rose, Oprah's BFF Gayle King and Norah O'Donnell have an easy, unforced chemistry — a refreshing alternative to their highly caffeinated competitors.

Hello, i was looking through the search function for some info on hydrualics and dump trailers etc but still need some help. What would be the difference between these two Power Packs.
The first is from Princess Auto in Vancouver, it is
Flow rating @ 0 PSI - A Single acting
Flow rating @ 2,500 PSI - 2.8 GPM
Relief setting (PSI) 1.3 GPM 2,500
Relief range (PSI) 500-3,000
Reservoir size (gal.) 0.75
Ports #6 ORB
PRICE 449.99 Canadian, (on sale for $400)
THe Second is from Dalton Hydraulics from ? (somewhere in the US)
Operation: Single-Acting
Power: 12 VDC
Capacity: 2.0 Gal
Pressure: 3000 PSI
Flow: 2.0 GPM @ 1000 PSI
Ports: #6 JIC Male Connection
* Power Up / Gravity Down
* Single solenoid operated holding valve
* 3000 PSI factory preset relief
* Made in USA (this one is $365 US)
So the questions would be, is the 2nd way better? Whats the difference between the two and are these prices good or where i can find something better/cheaper etc?
I need something that will be able to pick up about 2000-3000 pounds and if any info on who sells hydrualic cylinders (maybe a 4" 40/30) cheap would be appreciated too. Thanks.

Need Info on Single Axle Dump, and Hydraulics!
The first one operates faster than the second. However, this means it draws more power.
The first one has a very small reservoir. you wont be using it on a very big cylinder. In fact, it will exhaust its reservoir after 16 seconds of pumping. You can fix this by building a separate oil tank.
How many tons of effort you need depends entirely on where you place the hydraulic cylinder. If you attach the business end near the middle of the bed at a 15 degree angle, it will require over 11,000 lb to lift an evenly distributed 3,000lb load. This translates into a minimum cylinder ID of 2.65". [Note: this is where the mistake was-radius somehow got divided by 2 instead of multiplied by 2, giving .66" min ID] Assume you'll need a 3" cylinder. Actual operating pressure at 11,000lb force... pressure =force/area=11,000lb/(pi*1.5^2)=1,560PSI.
Figure the minimum capacity of your pump system to be at least the stroke volume of your cylinder ([3.14*[ID/2]^2*stroke length]/231cu in per gallon)
Assume you have a 3"ID cylinder with 48" stroke
r=1.5 pi*r^2*l =3.142*2.25*48=339cu in/231= 1.47 gallons
You're already beyond the reservoir capacity of the first pump.
Time to dump= 1.46gal/2GPM=.73min*60sec/min=44 seconds with the second pump - with a half gallon of oil left in the tank. This is assuming it runs 2gpm at 1500psi, althogh it is rated at 1000psi. In reality, it will probably bog down a little bit and take a full minute to dump this load.
Just be aware that the eye brackets you fabricate may see up to 22,000lb depending on where the load is. Make sure the frame can tolerate this!
Getting hydraulics to work right requires either engineering ahead of time, or trial and error (which usually consumes a lot of time and money). Note how badly a single incorrect keystroke (multiply vs. divide) messed up the original answer. It's better to catch mistakes on paper than cut them off and weld on the correction.

Interpretive Handbook
9129 :
Lyme Disease Serology, Serum
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Lyme disease is caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi. The spirochete is transmitted to humans through the bite of Ixodes species ticks. Endemic areas for Lyme disease in the United States (US) correspond with the distribution of 2 tick species, Ixodes dammini (Northeastern and Upper Midwestern US) and Ixodes pacificus (West Coast US). In Europe, Ixodes ricinus transmits the spirochete.
Lyme disease exhibits a variety of symptoms that may be confused with immune and inflammatory disorders. Inflammation around the tick bite causes skin lesions. Erythema chronicum migrans (ECM), a unique expanding skin lesion with central clearing that results in a ring-like appearance, is the first stage of the disease. Any of the following clinical manifestations may be present in patients with Lyme disease: arthritis, neurological disease, cardiac disease, or skin lesions. Neurologic and cardiac symptoms may appear with stage 2 and arthritic symptoms with stage 3 of Lyme disease. In some cases, a definitive distinction between stages is not always seen. Further, secondary symptoms may occur even though the patient does not recall a tick bite or a rash.
Serology may not be positive until 2 to 4 weeks after onset of ECM; however, culture of skin biopsies obtained near the margins of ECM are frequently positive. In late (chronic) stages of the disease, serology is often positive and the diagnostic method of choice. PCR testing also may be of use in these late stages if performed on synovial or cerebrospinal fluid.
Early antibiotic treatment of Lyme disease can resolve clinical symptoms and prevent progression of the disease to later stages. Treatment with penicillin, tetracycline, erythromycin, chloramphenicol, or ceftriaxone is considered appropriate therapy
The Second National Conference on the Serologic Diagnosis of Lyme Disease (1994) recommended that laboratories use a 2-test approach for the serologic diagnosis of Lyme disease. Accordingly, specimens are first tested by the more sensitive EIA or enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). A Western blot (WB) assay is used to confirm positive Lyme EIA or ELISA results due to the presence of IgG or IgM class antibodies. WB identifies the specific proteins to which the patient's antibodies bind. Although there are no proteins that specifically diagnose Borrelia burgdorferi infection, the number of proteins recognized in the WB assay is correlated with diagnosis.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Diagnosing Lyme disease
As a sensitive screening (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) test for Lyme disease
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Negative result: no antibody to Borrelia burgdorferi detected. This result does not exclude the possibility of Borrelia burgdorferi infection. Patients in early stages of infection may not produce detectable levels of antibody. According to the manufacturer's package insert, antibiotic therapy in early disease may prevent antibody production from reaching detectable levels. Patients with clinical history and/or symptoms suggestive of Lyme disease or where early Lyme disease is suspected, but with negative test results should be retested in 2 to 4 weeks.
Equivocal result: the imprecision inherent in any method implies a lower degree of confidence in the interpretation of specimens with absorbance values very close to the calculated cutoff value. For this reason an equivocal category has been designated. Equivocal specimens will be tested by Western blot (WB) assays in accordance with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)/Association of Public Health Laboratories (APHL) recommendations.
Positive result: antibody to Borrelia burgdorferi detected. All positive results will be supplemented by retesting the serum by WB for the detection of IgG and IgM antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi, in accordance with CDC/APHL recommendations.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
A negative result does not exclude the possibility of infection with Borrelia burgdorferi.
A positive result is not definitive evidence of infection with Borrelia burgdorferi. It is possible that other disease conditions, including syphilis, periodontal disease, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and other autoimmune diseases, may produce artifactual reactivity in the assay.
This test should not be used to screen the general population. The predictive value of the assay is a function of the pretest probability of Lyme disease in the population tested. Hence, only patients with clinical symptoms of Lyme disease or suspected exposure to Borrelia burgdorferi should be tested.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

Having introduced updates at the previous race, HRT say they'll be looking to "evaluate and optimise" those upgrades at Suzuka... For all the latest F1 odds on the Japanese Grand Prix, round 15 of the 2012 F1 Championship, visit Sky Bet. Pedro de la Rosa: "Suzuka is a beautiful and spectacular circuit; I would say it's my favourite track. It's very quick, you hardly touch the brake, and we'll be able to make a better evaluation of the difference between the new floor and the old one. It has inclinations, quick, flowing corners and it's a very long lap. It's a circuit for aerodynamics and horsepower where the best cars stand out. I've got great memories of it because my first victories in Formula 3 and Formula 3000 came there and it's one of the tracks which has brought me most luck in my career because by winning there the doors to Formula 1 opened. I hope to also have a good performance next weekend". Narain Karthikeyan: "I'm really looking forward to Japan after not being able to finish in Singapore. Suzuka is a very fluid and challenging track. From a physical point of view it's also tough as it's very quick. It's a circuit that I love and one I have fond memories of. I think we'll take a step forward with the car with regards to Singapore and we'll be able to better evaluate how the new floor works. We've been pretty fast in the last few races but we've been missing a bit of luck. But we have to continue working to maintain this positive momentum through to the end of the season". Luis Pérez-Sala, Team Principal: "Suzuka is a circuit with a lot of tradition which I raced at during my years as a Formula 1 driver. It's quite a technical track that's very challenging both mechanically and for the driver and it's also a very attractive circuit because it combines quick corners with quick straights. We'll be able to further test and evaluate the updates we took to Singapore because we will have more data. We're confident that we'll be able to continue with our momentum and it's another race to continue progressing."

Having put in the laps on Day One in Bahrian, Adrian Sutil says Sauber now need to focus on performance...
Having put in the laps on Day One in Bahrian, Adrian Sutil says Sauber now need to focus on performance.
The German driver covered 89 laps of the Sakhir circuit on Thursday with a best time of 1:37.700.
His time put him fifth on the day's timesheets, 2.410s behind pace-setter Sergio Perez, however, it was 4.417 short of Nico Rosberg's best from last week.
"We did a lot of mileage," said Sutil, "however, we have to work on our performance. We still had a few issues.
"Nevertheless, we were able to do qualifying runs and almost a complete race simulation.
"We have collected a lot of valuable information, and we know we still have to make further progress. Also I was able to gain experience on all dry tyre compounds.
"Generally they are all a bit harder than last year, but I have no concern about them as they should last well over the race distance."

Warning: this procedure involves extensive lame woodworking techniques such as glueing and stapling with nailguns. If you're a dovetail joint purist, you probably don't want to read any further.
Step 1: Ingredients
- a table saw
- a nail gun
Material you will need:
- at least a quarter of a plywood sheet, 96" long x 12" wide x 3/4" thick.
- at least 60 1.25" brads for the nail gun
- wood glue
- sand paper
- pabst blue ribbon, to help you channel your inner bubba.
Note: User earay indicates that MDF might be a better substitute for plywood, as it is cheaper and easier to paint when complete.
I love the checkmate touch you gave it! Beautiful design, I think that IKEA flat pack designers should pay more attention to websites like instructables. I would totally buy this if there was such a flat pack assembly kit. 60-minute bookcase, what more could one want! Great post, cheers
Very good instructurable !
I love the design !
Thank you, I'm heartened that people continue to get mileage from this old design.
When I saw this bookcase, it reminded me of a picture I've been saving to try some day. It's a corner shelf, and lacks the brace pieces that InnerBubba has put in.
I haven't built it yet, but I thought I'd share it. Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner so I drew (on ms paint) a picture to send. Please keep in mind that I'm not an artist or a carpenter, and I was drawing from a catalog clipping.
Not a bad project - esp. for tyro woodworkers. Some comments: Baltic Birch plywood is a good alternative - no need to use edge banding (yes, it comes in 4x8 sheets now vice the 5x5 sheets); waiting 24-48 hours for glue to set, not so - aliphatic glue (usually called 'yellow glue') sets up in about 10 mins.; crosscutting could be a problem, so as one person said, trim the strip down to 3 or 4 foot sections first to avoid kickback (although anti-kick back cauls are a big help - if you have 'em, use 'em); if you don't have a nail gun, take a look at the 'gas' or even battery guns rather then investing in a compressor, etc.; drywall screws are a good alternative to nails - be sure to drill pilot holes; when gluing, a small about of yellow glue followed by rubbing the pieces together will help set up the glue much faster and will avoid creep while you're waiting 10 mins. for the glue to set up sufficiently to use nails or drive screws; 'size' the edges of the plywood - cut the glue in half with water, apply it lightly to the edges that will be glued, wait 10 mins., very lightly smooth the edges with 180 grit sandpaper, and then glue - this goes a long way to avoiding the glue being absorbed by the very porous plywood edges which translates to a very weak joint; if you're going to nail or screw immediately after applying glue - have fun - the pieces are going to slide all over the place - as said earlier, wait 10 mins. (no, although the glue will have started to set up it hasn't started to significantly cure, so there's still plenty of wiggle room between the time you apply glue and nail/screw 10 mins. later, and again, you'll avoid creep (if you do the rubbing thing). WEAR GOGGLES!!
I don't really have a need for another bookshelf, but I really liked the idea. I changed the proportions and style a bit and built it out of foamcore.
I thought this was a nice enough project, many would might want to consider adding wood banding (e.g., 1/8" or 1/4" strips cut to the wide of the plywood) to cover the plywood edges. Alternately, some might prefer 1/2" round (doweling cut in half) or other molding, according to their tastes and preferences.
. If the joints are kept tight and everything were glued, the only weak spot of the design [when moved, suc (e.g., laid and carried on its side) should be minimized
There's no reason to not use the table saw IF you pay attention and use proper safety measures.
Personally, I wouldn't try to cut 6" pieces off the end of an 8' strip of plywood...use the circular saw to cut it into more manageable pieces first (say 2' long), then slice off the smaller pieces.
All saws come with splitters, but get tossed because they take too long to remove and install. The have to be removed to make rabbit and dado cuts, or any cut in which the blade does not go through the wood.
Newer saws come with Riving knives that do what a splitter does, but go up and down with the blade, so don't have to be removed.
Like a large percentage of tradesmen, I ran without a splitter on my commercial saws because of the problem with installation and removal. I spent a not insignificant amount on a splitter (Merlin) which installs and removes in seconds and my kick back problem all but went away (it can still happen).
All that said, the advice to not use the rip fence to cut boards to shorter lengths (cross cuts) is sound - use the miter push. Add to that that to NEVER USE THE MITER AT THE SAME TIME YOU USE THE RIP FENCE FOR ANY PROJECT. The only exception is if you have a Unifence and back the end of the fence off for use as a stop gauge, with it positioned so the wood clears it before entering the blade.
kick, the advice above is critical. Rip fences are for ripping long cuts and miter pushes are for cutting
On radials, the piece usually shoots out the back, rather than the front, of the saw. While paying not nearly enough attention, I shot a small piece of plywood about twenty feet, almost hitting my partner's head. It made a quite visible dent in the new drywall, and scared the **** out of both of us.
Power saws are downright dangerous, and you have to pay attention.
Buying this size lumber means you would only have to make 6 inch or 10 inch cuts across the boards to get your 1 foot pieces.
For those who don't have a saw, Lowes & Home Depot each have a cutting station where you can bring the board you are buying and they will cut it for you. I've been to different locations. One said the first cut per board was free, 50cents each cut after that. Another said all cutting was free (with the purchase of their lumber I'm sure.) Either way, it's totally worth an extra 50cents each cut for them to cut it on their nice big efficient apparatus, considering I live in a little 2-bedroom apartment with no yard (at least I have a patio!), no cutting table or saw horses, and the only power saw I have is a jig saw (can you imagine how long it would take me to make all those cuts??)
I plan to make one and paint the back board one
color and the other areas another bold color for a "funky- look". (I am so inspired that I may even start on it before I finish the other 50 projects that I am working on!! ha!)
Speaking of that "extra money" you don't have anymore-- you could always moonlight as a comedian! Reading your instructions, etc you have us cracking up over here!!

Is it possible to retrieve a user's tag specific reputation/score via the API? If not, is it possible to make an API call that returns enough information that you can calculate the value?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Stack Apps is a question and answer site for apps, scripts, and development with the Stack Exchange API. It's 100% free, no registration required.
migrated from meta.stackoverflow.com Jun 29 '12 at 14:09
This question came from our discussion, support, and feature requests site for professional and enthusiast programmers.
No, there's no API route that gives you a user's tag specific reputation information. The /users/{ids}/tags route only returns the combined count of questions and answers that a user has posted in a tag, but not the reputation information that you can get on the user profile tags tab. (Note: There's an app at Badge Status for a particular Tag in Stackoverflow that scrapes that page to get the information you're looking for.)
