How To Adjust Cabinet Door Euro Hinges
Most commercial kitchen and bathroom cabinets are now fitted with European style door hinges, commonly known as "euro hinges." While these hinges make possible a wide range of adjustments for cabinet doors, they can also seem complicated and difficult to adjust for many homeowners. In this video I'll explain the three adjustments you can make with this type of door hinge, and demonstrate how each adjustment is made.

Sink traps, known as "P-traps" are a plumbing component which serve an important function, preventing sewer gases from entering your home. However, they can need attention if they leak under your bathroom sink and into your vanity or kitchen cabinet, or if they become clogged with hair or grease, or if you lose something important down the drain like a wedding ring.

      You mean an exterior deck? If you have used pressure treated pine it won't be easy to achieve a dark finish unless you use a solid or semi-transparent stain, and those generally do not hold up well on flat, horizontal surfaces. You may get a year or two out of an application.

    Why have an air-compressor no matter how big the tanks are it will only last between 40 seconds to just over a minute? I just don’t get why not use electric or battery tools that will out perform any air guns. Only reason why i looked at this video is to see if I can use an air-compressor for an enclosed laser cutter and engraver. The air-assist provided for most lasers with a 40 watt module are too weak to do the job, so I thought the alternative would be an air compressor. But, the air isn’t consistent when demoing the paint gun.

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 4 дня назад

      You're overlooking a few things. For one, air compressors are used for more than just powering tools. If you do any automotive or motorcycle work, you'll need a compressor for seating tire beads and filling tires, for blowing out rust and debris, for clearing oil lines and passages in engines and transmissions, for holding valves in place while working, etc. So if the compressor is already there for those things it makes sense to use it for tools as well. Further, air powered impact wrenches are far more powerful than battery powered impact wrenches. If you do construction work, there are battery powered nail drivers, but they also have limitations. For example, air powered framing nailers still far outperform battery powered nailers and air powered nailers are generally lighter and cheaper. Air is also used in construction to blow out debris or to power paint sprayers. So it really depends on your circumstances, your budget and the type of work you do whether air-powered tools make sense.

    • @LouRao
      @LouRao 4 дня назад

      @@enduringcharmThanks for the feedback. After your explanation, it makes sense. I guess in my case it wouldn’t work for laser cutters and engraving machines, although some claim they use it with their lasers. Maybe for those using it for 1 to 2 job -maybe. For me, using a 40-watt laser for an hour-long cut jobs, an air compressor wouldn’t be consistent with airflow. Plus, the possibility of getting moisture into the hose and onto the laser lens is not a good idea. That said, I understand where you’re coming from. Thanks.

      Window sills are not all standard angles, and window installation may change the angle as well. An adjustable seat would be possible, but I guess manufacturers prefer not to get involved.

Not sure how well that would work, but at least somebody is trying something!

    Hey John, enjoyed your video & greetings from across the pond in Ireland, yes video 4 years old but said I’d ask, do you know of any attachments for rust removal in tight corners on a metal trailer, I have the wire brush & poly strip disks for angle grinder which are excellent but can’t get into tight corners / spaces Thanks

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 7 дней назад

      Boy, do I feel your pain! I have the identical problem every year with my work truck, because the salt they put down on the roads just eats it alive. I typically spend a day using an angle grinder and wire wheel or sanding disk to take the rust off and then I repaint. The corners are a problem. The multi-tool is probably not your solution, though, because it lacks attachments which are useful for this purpose, aside from a scraper blade. You can push a wire wheel hard into a corner, but it won't get everything. If you own a reciprocating saw they do make a wire brush attachment for that, which moves in a linear fashion and may help somewhat. You can buy small rotary wire brushes for use in a drill, and those can get into tight corners. But, you can't put all that much pressure on them. I typically use a combination of all these things, as well as hand work, until I get good and annoyed. Then I'll spray "rust converter" or use naval jelly to get the remainder and call it a day. Life is too short.

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 11 дней назад

      It's a little more complicated than that. Modern homes are wired very differently than those from decades ago, and there are very different code requirements. Breaker systems now include both GFCI and AFCI versions, and new homes must be built with AFCI for many circuits. Remodeling also triggers code updates in some cases, particularly for baths and kitchens. Fuse systems are generally older, and often lacking even a ground wire. Plus, the cables will become brittle or have failing insulation. Many fuses may respond inappropriately and trip when there are motors used on a circuit with a transient high start-up draw. And fuseboxes do leave open the possibility of exposure to live electric when changing a fuse or using an incorrectly rated fuse.

      The rear legs simply have a slight angle to them, which is cut from a straight board. I showed that angle and approximately where to start that angle in the video. So you'll take a board which is wide enough, draw a straight line up to where the angle starts, and then a straight line back at an angle to represent where you lean when sitting. I think it will make more sense once you start to lay it out.

      Yes, all the joints are glued and ideally you'll apply cement to both sides of the joint or else make an effort to spread the cement thickly so there is time for both sides to fuse. It can be tricky working alone to move fast enough, I know. That's another reason to do a light sanding and paint the columns, because it allows you to correct any squeeze out.

      Are you talking about the sleeve which slides over the clip and keeps the clip from coming out? And it looks like the style in the video? That should slide out pretty easily. Have you already removed the escutcheon? If you are having trouble with the sleeve there are two possibilities I can imagine. One is that somebody used silicone and it is basically glued in place. The other is that you may have water or soap deposits which have wedged it in place. Shine a light inside the tube and see if there is anything noticeable. I would first try removing it by twisting back and forth as you are pulling slowly and continuously. It may take minutes of this kind of pressure to loosen it. You can try spraying in the tube with a penetrant to help loosen deposits. Those sleeves are readily available, so you can use pliers to pull it and just replace the damaged sleeve.

    Most fairly modern (up to ±50 year old DIY) Radial(arm)saws manufactured/sold by B&D/DeWalt/Elu as well industrial RAS's made/sold by other companies (in Europe as well as in the USA) are not hardly as dangerous as you like your viewers te believe. Most (if not all) RAS of which the motor can be turned 90º (ripping position) do have all the standard features you say RAS's (i.c. your Craftsman-RAS) seem to lack. My over 30 year old ELU RAS-8001 (≈DeWalt DW721) has the following standard safety features: 1) fully adjustable riving-knive ⇒ for rip-cuts; 2) fully adjustable finger-protection ⇒ for both cross- & Rip-cuts; 3) fully adjustable anti-kickback-device (AKBD) ⇒ not just a simple hold-down fotr your ripping-stock but a very effective safety feather with making use of effective anti-kick-back-fingers (AKBF's) even when making beveled rip-cuts; 4) fully selfadjusting guardschields ⇒ placed on either side of the sawblade. Ensures the sawblade is hardly if at all exposed from the side. Even during the cut the blade is hardly exposed from the sides facing the operator. As a 12 year old, over 50 years ago, I had my first encounter with a Radial(arm)saw, it already had all the features of my ELU RAS-8001 c.q. DeWalt DW721. The friendly carpenter who owned the RAS carfully tought me how to use it safely for all types of cutting and especially ripping (as a kid/youngster I was not allowed to come even near the in his view far more dangerous table-saws). So be for any new cut, cutting set-up, I was tougth to adjust the finger-protector to the thickness of the stock. For ripping one was to let down and properly adjust the riving knive and the anti-kickback-device. ========== Looking at both your videos it is clear that, contrary to your statements/and believe, your ¿very-old? Craftsman-RAS already has some (if not most) of those important safety-features, be it in a less advanced design than at least de (European) DeWalt-RAS’s from the 70’s and onwards. But somehow you missed them or at least do not seem to really understand them: 1) Riving Knife ⇒ OK, your machine seems to lack the use an fitting of a riving knive; 2) Fingerprotection ⇒ Your machine has an easily adjustable fingerprotector that consists of the (upper) sawcover to be tilted down towards the stock (so downwards towards the operator when crosscuting and ripping); a feature you mistakenly took for some way to improve the dust output/exhaust away from the operator; 3) Anti-kick-back-device (AKBD) ⇒ your machine already features a quite effective anti-kick-back-device (AKBD) including anti-kick-back-fingers (AKBF), at least for non-beveled ripping. But since, at least in outrip-postion, you mistakenly feed the stock from right to left (as suitable for in-rips) which places the AKBD in reversed (and therefor nonfunctional) postion with respect to the direction of the stockfeed; thisway the AKBD can only serve a a simple holddown. In your video you further push down the AKBD so far that the AKBF's become completely useless even in in-rip-position; this way the AKBF's only 'serve' as ineffective/useless sliders/scratchers over the top of the stock when in passes underneath during the rip-cut. This shows that you did not fully understand haw to make use of the AKBD other then as a (useless) holddown. When usede an adjuted in a correct way your AKBD ensures safe ripping at least for non-beveled rip-cuts. I strongly suggest you look up the manual that shows the correct use of the quite functional AKBD + AKBF’s and as well as the othe features tha make ripping an a RAS at least as safe as on most (modern) tablesaws. 4) Sideguard-shields - your machine lacks them so the downpart of the sawblade ios fullyexposed; I don’t know if your Craftsman never had susch side proitection as standarrd or as an accessorie, but most modern RAS’s have them even though many operators take them of (parcially). ========== Any machine that is not operated carefully or in the way it is intended is dangerous; and sure some of the possible uses shown in older manuals are never save; Nowadays safety plays a greater role in the use of most machines and manufacturers take great care not to propagate improper and dangerous uses of all kinds of statonairy saws, be it bandsaws, tablesaws, radial(arm)saws and even (vertical) panelsaws, but a properly used RAS is not more dangerous than a table-saw, neither for crosscuts, nor mitering nor ripping. So make them safe by using them safely, try to understand how to best use them (safe) and tka advantage of all its features without making unsubstantiated claims about the dangers of either machines, especially where those dangers can easily mitigated by proper understanding and use. And further RTFM, and if it doesn't make sense RTFM again (and again). een vriendelijke groet, Simon Koorn (Netherlands)

    Does it cut ceramic tiles

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 15 дней назад

      While they do make diamond blades for this tool, it's practical use would be limited to something like trimming an existing tile installation for plumbing access or whatever. If you are attempting to install new tile, you can use a wet saw for porcelain or ceramic tile or a tile cutter for thin ceramic tile. Some installers use diamond blades on grinders, but I would not recommend that due to the dust and poor cut control. If you are installing new tile and you want a precise, good looking job, rent or buy a wet saw.

    How many hours did you have on your ZT mower when you needed to replace those dampeners?

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 15 дней назад

      I don't have a specific answer for you, but I think you'll find that the life of a dampener will depend on many things. The quality of the original component is one factor, the amount of turns and force used in those turns is another, and even things like ambient temperature during use could be a factor. The best approach is just to test the dampeners when you feel a change, or do it as part of your annual maintenance.

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 15 дней назад

      It can sometimes be a struggle to get out the pieces and perhaps somebody with more experience will approach the task with different technique. I suspect it will eventually break free, but worse case you can always just replace the whole valve.

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 15 дней назад

      If you need to replace the entire valve with a new one the cost will depend on many factors, including physical access to the valve, whether you have tile or a plastic/fiberglass surround, the type of pipes you have, and the labor and availability of plumbers in your area. You should be able to get a free estimate, though. Probably just the cartridge can be removed by somebody with a little more experience, I suspect.

    Hi, what is your multi tool you used to cut out the wood?

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 15 дней назад

      I have both a corded and cordless DeWalt multitool, although I rarely use the corded one anymore. Most of the major brands of multitools are very good, but I find the trigger style of the Dewalt to be useful. See this for more info: ruclips.net/video/X5oyljd-fTo/видео.htmlsi=ao23ZGUc51D1ihZz

    I agree with everything you did except for, how do you know the knife is just touching the underside of the wood if it doesn’t move at all? Are you going to use a feeler gauge or something? I hate the amount of time it takes to set the joint or knives as everyone else does. I just don’t know a surefire and simpler way of doing this. Usually, I will take my aluminum straight edge which is perfect and putting Mark on the straight edge and see how much it moves from the highest point forward and then do that to the backside and the front side of each night. I have not tried the magnetic trick yet even though I have it, so I guess that is going to be my next adventure to try to make this process quicker. I hate changing these knives so much that I am looking to sell my jointer I have now and purchase a helix head jointer instead.

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 17 дней назад

      The process can be a little fiddly, but even with my tired old eyes I can get nearly perfect to the scrap wood. Generally you go slightly too high and then back off for the final adjustment. I use my jointer mostly for edge joining so I don't need to change the blades that often. The helix thing has pluses and minuses--it may be more forgiving as far as keeping sharp edges available but the cost is nothing to sneeze at.

    Is it the same process for lighter wood?

    • @enduringcharm
      @enduringcharm 17 дней назад

      Of course there are differences among wood species, and they will take stains or even clear finishes differently. That said, the basic process is the same. It may be trickier to get the color right on a lighter wood because you can't just cover up imperfections with a dark glaze. Practice on a scrap or on the inside of the cabinet or drawer where it doesn't show.
