G D Munday  Right from the get-go I should have turned around and gone back to bed. I had a limb down in the yard from the high winds and storm that passed through over the weekend. I tossed my walker onto the hood of the JD425 hitched the wagon to it along with the small electric chain saw. The electric cord I unreeled as I drove... plug in the chain saw and POOFT the G D Cord connection burned up !  BLOGABLE! Here's how to repair a burned out power cord. On the farm we keep several "male" and "female" power cord ends so we don't have to drive into town to get one. I took my dikes and cut the burned up end OFF !  Place the retaining cap over the end of the cord.  Using a wire stripper cut away the insulation from your cord and your wires.  Connect your wires as follows; Green ground wire to the green screw, white wire to the silver screw, black wire to the brass screw.  Connect the wired plug inside the protective cap securely with the screws provided.... There you have it! A fast electric cord repair. |

I also repaired my ice crusher... Just poured boiling water down the gear connection which had jammed up with ice.... A NEW Trick for me.... I once again have crushed ice in my Coke!

I have made that repair before, and also had to replace the plug on the cord to my vacuum sweeper twice in one week. That was because I didn't learn the first time to put it away when our dog was a puppy in the chewing stage. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.
