This is a Redneck “Handy Man’s” reference book. Feel free to use any of these ideas
Not responsible for fires, flooding, electrocutions, shootings or divorces
![Page 8: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
This is a bathroom outlet
Some people believe in those
Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupters but they take up a lot of space and cost
a lot
![Page 9: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
A new idea but still needs
some refinement
That’s an automotive radiator attached to the floor joists with hot water piped to it. All the pipes and the wood-burning boiler can be constructed of recycled components.
![Page 10: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Here, your auto mechanic know-how pays off
A radiator hose from a
1945 Pontiac can be used to replace piping
leading into the main drain
stack
Why pay a plumber when you have all the know-how and parts?
![Page 11: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Here's another brilliant idea:
Keep the supply & return
registers close together so the
air can flow freely back to the furnace
The house seems a little chilly and the furnace
keeps running. This needs more study.
![Page 12: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Another good idea: It saves cutting a hole in the roof
![Page 13: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The inspector said something about needing flashing
Flashing—who needs
flashing?!?
![Page 14: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Here you have your basic downspout planter, with
an attractive—and healthy—sword fern contrasting
nicely with the red window trim. You, too, can have one of these
beautiful planters.
Self watering, and the lady of the house will love it
![Page 15: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
CPVC pipe touching the flue
pipe?
The fix?
Slip some cardboard
between the warm flue pipe
and the meltable plastic!
![Page 16: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Like lots of light when taking a
shower?
Also a potential savings in
divorce settlement costs
It’s also handy to have the light switch close by
![Page 17: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
FOILED!Cheaper than
buying another section. This
section of water heater flue is
made entirely of aluminum foil
![Page 18: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Rain gutter capped on both ends?
Saves on downspout costs
![Page 19: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Waterfall
It’s a good idea to connect all
drain pipes before using the
bathtub..
![Page 20: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Inexpensive plug for the
sewer cleanout
Recycle
![Page 21: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Homemade Humidifier
Why mess with all that high-tech gadgetry in a humidifier?
A Cool Whip container filled with
water will do the same thing
![Page 22: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Smell a Rat?
It’s a good idea to cover all unused
knockouts
![Page 23: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
A Plumbing Odyssey
If your plumbing job
looks like this, you might want to draw a map
![Page 24: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Wrenching
This might not be the best way to shim between
the support post and the
beam
![Page 25: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
.
Duct! If you have a
broken framing member in
your attic, use the all-purpose
structural repair kit — duct tape!
![Page 26: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Hot Water Heater Installation
It is not recommended to install hot water heaters on their
side
Also use a TPR valve. Not a large pressure gauge
![Page 27: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
.
Chimney Installation
Be sure to fireproof the siding with a metallic paint
![Page 28: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
RECYCLE
Clever idea for recycling
that old jockstrap
![Page 29: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Recycle
Another excellent
example of recycling
Flex duct support in the crawlspace..
![Page 30: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Dryer Receptacle Alternative
Here is the latest in electrical wiring
techniques for dryer hookups. No box
required. We recommend a piece of duct tape over the
connections.
![Page 31: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Another Recycling
Opportunity
The people at Rubbermaid will
be proud of a new-found use
for a garbage can lid
![Page 32: Welcome to CEBI Spring 2008 Summit General Session](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103005/56649cfe5503460f949cf569/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
This manual is for the Redneck do-it-yourselfer.
Most jobs look better after a few bottles of Bud Lite
