Kitchen Cabinet Hinge Rescue - Part 1 to Part 5

In this video series, I take on the somewhat common task of fixing a hinge that has worked loose from its cupboard mounting.  This happens over time, and (like most people) it gets ignored until the door is so loose that it cannot be closed, or closed easily.  By that point, the hinge mount is so damaged that simply putting in a new screw isn't feasible and the mounting point needs to be "built back up" to the point where the original screw (or a close copy thereof) can then be used to re-attach the hinge mount.  This typically involves reaming out the hole to round (if not already round) and then the insertion of enough supplemental material to give the old (or replacement) screw sufficient purchase.  This video series covers this process in fine detail, so anyone can reproduce my results.

Bamboo House - Induction Cooktop UPGRADE (Part 1 to 8)

One of the things that Mrs. Maker demands is a kitchen that affords her with the appropriate stage upon which to develop her culinary delights. 

One of the major drawbacks of Bamboo House was its kitchen, which I have worked on steadily over the past few months, adding features and capabilities as I go. 

This video series documents how I upgraded the induction cooktop from a half sized, 2-ring model (that was broken) to a full sized, 3-ring model.
