Wrap some masking tape around a large drill bit so that it is slightly larger than the inside of your ring. Twist your ring onto the bit, making sure it's held firmly in place. If it's still loose, add more tape then try again. Once the ring is on the bit, attach the bit to an electric drill and turn it on.        Wrap a small piece of wood in sandpaper, and hold the spinning ring against it to smooth the outside of the ring. Use increasingly higher grits to get it nice and smooth. Use a rough cloth once you're done sanding for a finishing touch.

Making popcorn on the stove is simple to do. For fat free popcorn, spray the bottom of the pan with cooking oil and turn the heat to moderately high. Spread enough kernels to cover the bottom of the pan. Place the lid on and wait for the first pop, then begin gently tapping the pot on the stove top to prevent scorching. Lift the lid to see when all the kernels have popped. Serve, and enjoy.
This dessert, which will leave your guests asking if it's a cookie, a cake, or a pie, can be easily made using a sugar cookie mix, canned pie filling, eggs and butter. Everything but the pie filling is mixed together, 3/4 of the dough is placed in the bottom of a greased cake pan and topped with the pie filling. The remaining dough is plopped on the top and it is baked at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes. It is delicious served with ice-cream.

These can be expensive especially if you need a dozen or so. Take a dowel cut into 24 inches or so, or a chopstick also works. for each pinwheel you need a square of colored paper about 6 to 8 inches will do. Cut each of the diagonal folds leaving an inch at the center uncut.  Fold the paper tips along the cut lines so the meet (do this one by one) at the center and glue to hold at the center. Let the pinwheel dry well. Now take a push pin and push it through the center (front to back) and then push the pin into the dowel or chopstick. Now you have a pinwheel! Enjoy.

Start by taking the 23" 2x4 and 2 16" 2x4s and screw them together with 3" screws to make a a "c" shape. Use 2 screws for each joint. Place the 16" by 26" piece of plywood on top of the "C" shape you just made. Secure it with 3 evenly spaced 1 5/8 inch screws on each of the short sides, and 4 screws on the long side.

Remove fixtures from antique.        Place in the kitchen sink or large bowl.        Pour white or apple cider vinegar that is 5% acidity into the sink with the fixtures.        Put some ketchup in with the vinegar.        Let the fixtures soak for a few hours.        Wearing gloves, take each fixture and put some extra ketchup on them and scrub them using an old tooth brush. The ketchup helps make a paste to scrub the extra rust off.        After scrubbing each fixture, place them back in the vinegar solution and let them rest a few more hours.        Scrub more if necessary.        Remove from vinegar solution, rinse off with water, and immediately dry with a cloth or paper towel afterwards. If you don't dry them they will oxidize again with the water and create more rust.

Here is what is needed for this microwave cleaning hack:        Vinegar        Lemon juice        A small cup        Mix about 5 parts vinegar with one part lemon juice.        I fill a small cup half full with vinegar then added two spoonfuls of lemon juice.        Give the mixture a slight stir.        Place your cup into the microwave and cook for 2 hours.        After the microwave is done leave the mixture inside for about 5 more minutes before opening the door.        After leaving for 5 minutes proceed to wipe down the microwave with a clean damp cloth.        The grime just comes right off!

Grab a pot or saucepan and add oil to it, bringing it up to about high heat, just before the smoke point.  Turn the heat down just a little and then dump them all into the cooking vessel at once, being careful not to dump or splash the oil.  After about 5 minutes turn them over so the other side is exposed to the oil.  Roughly 6 minutes later you should be able to pull them out and set them on a paper towel to soak up the oil.

Bring one cup of water to a boil in a saucepan and dissolve a quarter cup of white sugar into it, until no more will dissolve. Still eating and stirring, keep adding more sugar, stirring each time until it dissolves, until you've added three cups of sugar. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Dip a bamboo skewer into the solution, remove and roll in sugar. Pour the solution into a jar. Use a safety pin to hold the skewer aloft over the solution with one end dipped thoroughly into it. Wait seven days for the rock candy to farm.

In the bathroom, set up a stool and cover up the surrounding areas with napkins to prevent spills. Wear old clothing, but preferably take off your clothes so that staining will not ruin them.  Take some of the mixture in your hands and run water over it until it foams, about three minutes. Carefully, with a few fingers, apply the mixture onto your nose and area surround your eyes, as well as the chin.Wait for fifteen minutes. With lukewarm water, wash off the mixture gently.

Pick a spot of low wet flat sand and dig a trench. make sure the trench has a mound in the centre with small hole in the center. Place the windbreaker over the hole. Then place the water proof sail over the trench and put a rock in the middle to create a centre weight.  Pour sea water over the the sail. As the sun hits the beach the water within the sail will try to evaporate. The sail is waterproof the water will collect underneath the sail as condensation. The  droplets will get bigger and heavier throughout the day they will fall towards the middle. This water will dribble down into the bowl made out of a waterproof windbreaker.
You can use fabric dye to darken a color or patterned shirt. If you use black, and your shirt was yellow, the result may be a dark green or brown and may not turn out totally black. If your shirt has a pattern of reds and whites, and you dye the shirt blue, the reds will likely darken to purple and the whites to blue. Your dye may not turn out the color you expect, but it certainly can change the color of a shirt.

Punch holes in the bottom of the tin can with a hammer and nail. Clean the can, then place the berries into the can. Hold the can over a bowl and press a cup that is slightly smaller than the can into the can and down on top of the berries. Pull the cup back up a little, and then push it into the berries again. Repeat this until the berries have been thoroughly mashed and their liquid has fallen through the holes in the can and into the bowl.

Remove from heat-  stir in 1 tablespoon butter and 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla.  Pour into bowl set this aside to cool while you make your crust:    Stir 1 1/4 cup flour and 1/4 tsp. salt.  Using a pastry blender cut 1/3 cup shortening until pieces are pea sized.  Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of cold water over mixture, toss with a fork.  Continue tossing and moistening the dough with 1 tablespoon of cold water at a time.  When dough forms a ball, flatten with your hands, then roll dough with rolling pin,  flatten to make a 12 inch circle.  Out of this make as many 5 inch circles as possible.  In each circle place about 1/2 cup chocolate pudding.  Fold in half over pudding, crimp edges.  Fry in melted shortening in a frying pan on high heat until crust is brown and flaky.

To quickly kill green hair algae in an aquarium, you can spot treat with 3% Hydrogen peroxide, around 1mL per 10g water volume. Turn off the filters, and fill a syringe with the peroxide. Spray directly on the algae. Leave the filters off for about 15 minutes, do a 25% water change, and turn the filters back on. You should notice the algae starting to turn reddish or brown by the next day. Repeat as necessary.
