OSH's Tips of the day

Hardware Tip

Oil-base paints cannot be applied over some latex primers, due to the expansion and contraction of latex, which can crack some oil-base finishes. Be certain that the primer and paint you choose are compatible.

Gardening Tip

Give self-propelled mowers a gentle push before engaging the clutch to save needless wearing out of the ratchets by "jump starts."
