Non-Slip Stair Treads

By
Frankly I would not use them in this situation. 

These stair treads will most definitely give you better traction and footing.  However due to the gritty nature of the surface, I would not put these down on finished wooden steps.   I think they would be great for work shop or industrial areas but, to me, they are not appropriate for in the house use.
From the vendor:
  • PREVENTS FALLING or SLIPPING: MBIGM Non-skid tapes help you take matters into your own hands when it comes to you and your family's safety. MBIGM tape uses a 80 grit aluminum oxide traction pad which boosts feet traction with a subtle texture, giving you and your loved ones the most all-around protection.
  • NO MORE PEELING OFF AFTER 48 HOURS: The adhesive layer of our stair strips is designed with a strongly durable weatherproof triple layer glue, which ensures your daily use without any peeling off.
  • COVER LARGER AREA and MORE STEPS: 6”x30” size is perfect for outdoor and indoor use, covering larger area of stair surface. Quantity of 12 allows you to apply on more stpes than others.
  • SUPER EASY TO SET UP: Clean the surface, peel the backing and stick. The step treads are perfectly pre-cut, so you don't have to waste time to cut them into small pieces.
  • WATER PROOF PERFECT FOR ALL PURPOSE: Our strong tape is durable for indoor and outdoor uses such as stairs, entryways, ladders, concrete, metal, plastic, tile, laminate, mats, carpets, shoe grips, skateboard grip, ramp and scooters. MBIGM stair strips can be used on rough or smooth surfaces.

If reviewing a product, it may have been received free of charge. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.

Samsung FlipShot-ho hum

By
I just got the Samsung FlipShot aka SCH-U900. If you haven’t noticed by now, I am very family oriented, specifically focused on grandchildren. I frequently lament that I don’t have my camera on me. However, I always have my phone on me. Thusly I wanted a phone with a decent camera. The FlipShot comes close. Samsung claims it is a 3 megapixel camera with flash and zoom. The photos are not what I would consider decent from a digital camera but compared to my last phone/camera, they are much better. The phone has a slot for a micro sd memory card. I popped a 2gb card in there for saving my photos. I have not been able to find a way to default the photos to the memory card. You have to manually move them. I haven’t given up and perhaps in a software upgrade there will be a way to get them to the card without moving them manually. Getting them off of the phone is interesting. If you don’t buy Samsung’s charging/data cable, you can send them to yourself and get them on your pc that way. You ...

Troy-Bilt 2700 PSI 2.3 GPM Gas Pressure Washer Review

By
Troy-Bilt 2700 PSI 2.3 GPM Gas Pressure Washer Review Item #: 75140 | Model #: 20414 When I started this blog, I assumed I would be only talking tech. Well that led to philosophic musing and then comments on other stuff. I’m not sure where a pressure washer fits but regardless I am writing about it. I was power washing the mildew off the siding and thought the odor was the detergent I was using. When I looked over my shoulder and saw the grey smoke pouring out of the pressure washer, I realized what the odor really was. Considering the age of my venerable electric power washer, I concluded that discretion being the better part of safety and how water and electricity don’t play well, I trashed my old power washer. After much research, I found the Troy-Bilt 20414 was the best bang for the buck I could find. Keep in mind I am a consumer, not some testing house, so I make my purchases based on research and price point. I wanted electric but my boys who participated in the purchase, ...

3D Printing—Way, Way Cool

By
You may not be familiar with the term 3D printing but I bet you remember the replicator from Star Trek. Well kiddies, it is no longer just science fiction. Replication exists! Analog Science Fiction and Fact had a great article in the November 2008 edition called: “The 3D Train Wreck”. Thomas A. Easton, the author gave a great overview of the future of 3D printing. Simplistically, take your 3 dimensional CAD drawing and print it out on a laser printer that will print layers with some type of raw material. Each layer is adhered to the previous layer until you have a full three dimensional finished product. There are a variety of existing technologies that are doing this right now. Rapid-prototyping in industry is the biggest market right at the moment. Consider how incredibly convenient it would be to fabricate or replicate things right at home. My Polaris pool sweep needed a part yesterday. The part is unavailable, without the part the sweep doesn’t work. The alternative was to buy a...
