DIY Tips for Repairing Your Own Clock and Replacing the Clocks Works
Repairing the Clock
Jill of All Trades shows how easy it is to replace the clock works on a battery operated clock.
This week, Jill Washburn, our Jill of All Trades, shows us how to replace the clock works on a battery operated clock. One of Jill’s favorite clocks had died and a new battery couldn’t get it going again, so it was time (no pun intended) to dig deeper.
Jill says that the main thing that you need to know for replacing the works on a clock is the length of the stem. The stem is the part that the hands rest on. Different clocks require different stem lengths depending on what they re made of and how they’re put together. To determine the stem length, you want to measure the stem from its base where it goes into the works box to the very end of the stem.
Jill of All Trades: Tips for safely changing out your tire
This week, Jill Washburn, our Jill of All Trades, shows us how to change a tire. Recently, Jill was driving her vehicle and hit a small piece of debris in the road and heard a loud bang. Obviously, that wasn’t something good. Immediately, the tire sensor started alerting her that the pressure was low.
How to change a tire
After recently experiencing a flat tire herself, our Jill of All Trades shows us how easy it is to change your own tire.
Jill was lucky that she was able to make it about another half mile down the road to a safe spot in a parking lot before the tire went pancake flat. That may not always be possible, so Jill wants to emphasize some safety tips. First and foremost, she says, you want to be well off the road. Next, you want to be in a safe area. If it is dark, or bad weather, or not a safe area, or too busy of a spot, you probably want to call for help.
