Mu-metal seems to block electromagnetic flux from circuitry, but will it, for example, block a rare earth magnet's affects on a piece of steel?

I can only assume there is a command prompt menu with mac, but I could be wrong. If so, where is it and are the cmd's at all similar??

I have a basement floor made of dirt.(sandstone foundation). Occasionally the dirt becomes moist, bringing on mold. I know there is a more permanent solution of keeping the basement dry all together, but that's not in the current budget. For now I just want to get a 1-2" layer of limestone down to promote drying and to not track dirt(wood stove activity)....What would be a good mold deterrent? Rock salt, in with the stone....? Some other additive?..

I took the side cover off to work on the starter gears, that went well, but now the clutch won't allow the bike to free well unless I Foot shift it into neutral. I have gone through (several times) the adjustment process. Just touch the push-rod, back up 1/4 turn then tighten. Then left 1/4" travel at the handlebar lever. It feels like it is operating perfectly except the wheel won't turn free. The balls in the clutch push mechanism are also in their proper positions,detents. It has fresh oil in case also. Help. These gas prices are creepin up!

I want to use small screws to attach a surveillance camera to a pine tree (norway I think). Will this harm the tree, will it kill it? Should I use a certain type of screw??...or any better ideas that won't let the camera wander out of position? The tree is about 16 in Dia. at the mount height.

It was blowing good cold air until the dash a/c Button started flashing on and off instead of staying solidly lit.There is current to the compressor ,until the blinking light starts (dash switch)then the current goes dead.The a/c relay has been replaced (marked heater),and all known fuses are good.Is there another relay that is relevant??.....or what to try next?

Its to much for goo-gone,I know they sell a product specifically for it,but its pricey,hot soapy water takes the label off but the glue is tough to remove.Any good tricks?

I am trying to figure propane usage,if a pilot light uses for example,10 therms a year, how many gallons is that??

The stove will be in the basement with the stack going strait up through the house.I want to use single and triple wall pipe.In each level of the house,I want to use triple where it comes in contact with floors,ceilings etc. but also go back to single wall pipe so I can recover as much heat as possible from the chimney.Of course there will be proper guards/heat boxes around the single wall sections.Can anyone give any tips or helpful advise on this technique?

sifting through red tape is not my forte'.Who could I go to for help obtaining gvt grants, if they do actually exist?

I am having the the hardest time finding the zinc replacement anode rods for my kenmore power miser 12 model# 153.321441. Sears seems to list the original rods,magnesium,which are to reactive,making a terrible egg/crap smell.Other parts suppliers aren't even listing this model #. Any suggestions please.

It seems like using an open loop system using the already existing well and water in it would be a good cost effective use of the large mass of water 60 ft. below the surface. Couldn't you constantly circulate it to exchanger for the heat pump? this would be a separate pump from the water supply for the home.please give any and all suggestions.I really want geothermal heat but cant afford the typical installation

I am looking for a liquid compound that will raise in temperature when exposed to fast, strong compression.I am looking for an alternative heat source for my home.

I need to figure out if it more inexpensive to go electric, vs propane. what are some electric bills through the heating season,particularly in the ohio area. without use of a heat pump.

I am attempting to restore a 20 ga. J Stevens shotgun, the rust isn't a problem but I would like to remove all the internal action for further cleaning.It looks like they used pressed in pins.Are these just simply knocked out with a punch? I don't want to put any tooling marks on the pins,use brass punch? The gun is completely broke down otherwise.

The well produced gas about ten years ago,and was "pulled out" because it wasn't be used and the owner didn't want to worry about trucking off salt water.what would it take to open it again or who would I contact to find out more?

I would think introducing all the raw food product to the tank would slow the solids breakdown process..does it effect it at all??

my furnace is a gas ,75,000 btu goodman.I just need to know the minimum duct size to use for the return air. Is there an easy answer or is there an equation to use to figure it out.the duct only needs to be 9ft. long with two 45 deg. bends.
