How do you measure the depth of a river in fishing? Attach a float to your line and a weight where you would normally put the hook. Let it sink and the bobber will give you an idea of how … Continue reading →

How do you remove the head of an axe? First, you can hit the axe head with a mallet or dead blow hammer, striking the bottom until it comes off the handle. Or you can do what I do; I … Continue reading →

Trimming the length of an exterior door is not difficult, but you must take care not to accidentally split the edges or splinter the wood. For cuts greater than 3/16 inch, use a circular saw equipped with a blade for … Continue reading →

Grind the seam and the area around the seam with an angle grinder using a 36-grit disk. Grind the tops of the seam as well as the edges. This should take only a few passes of the grinder. Wipe away … Continue reading →

Fiberglass tape doesn’t have an aggressive adhesive, so it’s not wise to trust it any longer than necessary, especially on ceilings. As soon as you finish taping a room, proceed immediately to the first coat of compound to embed the … Continue reading →

The drag is simply a pair of friction plates inside of fishing reels. If the fish pulls on the line hard enough, the friction is overcome, and the reel rotates backwards, letting line out, preventing the line from breaking. You … Continue reading →

Can I troll with drift sock? The preferred way to use your drift sock for trolling is to first find the fish or landmark on the map you want to target. Then continue past the spot heading into the wind. … Continue reading →

When a polythene rod is rubbed with a duster, the friction causes electrons to gain energy. Electrons gain enough energy to leave the atom and ‘rub off’ onto the polythene rod. The polythene rod has gained electrons, giving it a … Continue reading →

Bendable or flexible materials are materials that are able to be bent out of shape or compressed without breaking, and can easily be returned to their original shape. What is a strong bendable material? It’s “graphene.” Graphene is the strongest, … Continue reading →

Drifting is allowing the wind and current to move the boat while actively fishing. Setting up a drift requires recognizing the wind and current direction and strength, positioning the boat up-drift of the intended area, and either turning off the … Continue reading →
