Here's
How
By GENE GARY
Q. How can t fix wood
screws firmly into
plastered walls? Ben
Virgil M.
A. Ordinary hexagonal
lead pencils can be used as
expansion plugs. Simply
cut a pencil into 3/4 -inch
sections and push the lead
out of these sections. Drill
holes into the plastered
walls to make a snug fit for
these pencil lengths. Then
drive in your screws, which
will expand the wood for
firm settings.
Q. I'm planning to build
a swimming pool, perhaps
next spring, and I'm both-
ered much about what to
do with it during the winter
which follows. Some tell
me to let it freeze. Others
advise that it
should al-
ways be drained. What is
your advice? — G.F.L.,
Dover, NJ.
A. Although there is
some difference of opinion
and varying experiences in
handling cold weather pool
problems, it seems to- be
quite generally agreed that
a swimming pool should be
left filled over the winter,
especially in areas where
the average frost line just
about equals the median
depth of the pool.
The reason is, mainly,
that when the water in the
pool freezes, the frost pres-
sure on the wall will be
more nearly equalized;
there will be less all-over
11 over
- movement and less likeli-
hood of damage to the
wall. This has been the
general experience of pool
owners in cold -weather lo-
cations. -
In the northern tier of
states where mid -winter
cold is more severe, swim-
ming pools are sometimes
"cribbed” or lined with
softwood (pine or cedar)
logs eight to 10 inches in
diameter and cut to short
lengths so that they can be
more conveniently stacked
along the walls and lashed
in place. When the water in
the pool freezes, the soft-
wood logs tend to act as an
expansion strip, absorbing
and equalizing the pres-
sures exerted against the
wall by deep frost.
Q. I discovered an old
pewter coffee service in
the attic. I have tried the
oil and ro to stone paste
and several poll hes, as the
set is badly blackened.
Is it possible to restore it
to its original soft luster?
— T.O.K.
A. Try rubbing. with
"00" steel wool, dipped in
olive oil to prevent
scratching the surface. If
the set 'teas a brownish
sale, rather than a really
blackened appearance,
soak the pieces in a strong
lye solution.
Anything with wooden
knobs or handles of Jap -
panned should not be treat-
ed this way.
Cover items completely,
allowing to remain about
15 minutes, then remove
with tongs, rinse carefully
and scrub witha soft
brush. Then polish the
pewter in the regular way.
Q. 1 recently did a brick
repair job, using a ready -
mixed mortar between
damaged joints.
My neighbor came over
while I was working and
criticized me for mixing
too much mortar at one
time. He said this after be
saw me add some water to
a mixture That had started
to set.
Is he correct? And if so,
how do I know how much
mortar to faits so that it
does not begin to set before
I use it? — Art L.P.
A. Your ,neighbor is
right. Mortar generally be-
gins to set in about one-half
hour. Therefore, do not mix
any more than you can use
in that length of time.
It is true that adding a
little extra water to the
unused portion will make it
workable again, but it may
also weaken the mixture.
