How do you reglaze dishes?

I have beautiful old white stoneware that the finish has worn off of. Now they show gray marks from eating utensils every time I use them. I have cleaned them all up from the marks and am wondering if it is possible to re-glaze them so that they would be protected from re-marking. I am not interested in changing them, just replacing the protective clear glaze.

Where is the serial number located on a new Brother sewing machine?

As the location of the serial number varies between machines, if you have your specific model number, you can find this information in its service or instruction manual. If your machine is so old that Sears no longer offers it (http://www3.sears.com/), some manuals can be found for free on Fixya.com/manuals. Also, PDF files of such manuals can also be purchased at numerous sites, such as the following:

How do you replace a wood wheel spoke?

how do you remove an old wood spoke wagon wheel?

The axle will have a metal nut on the end of it. Usually very rusted and deep inside the hub. Clean out all the old grease and gunk and you should find it. Try penetrating oil to loosen it but usually it takes heat to loosen which burns up the wooden hub badly so do as last resort.

Who is the strongest beyblade ever?

To be a great beyblader, you need the right beyblade. I thought that attack beyblades were really good and so I bought one. But I lost every battle. So I bought a defense type thinking that it would turn things around, but I lost every battle again. So I bought a stamina type beyblade, (Flame Sagittario C145S) I have been winning every battle since then. You see, attack type beyblades usually go around in circles on the outside but stamina stay still and they spin in the center, so when the attack type is going around the outside and losing all of its energy, the stamina type is spinning in the middle and stamina types are meant to be able to maintain energy. When the attack type finally come to the center and hits the stamina type beyblade, then the stamina wins. The stamina wins because the stamina beyblade has more energy than the attack at that point.

That is how I win, but it all depends on you, some people can make the attack beyblade go into the center and attack the other beyblade and then the attack sometimes has the advantage depending on the type of beyblade. So if you are aiming to be the best blader you can be, then I suggest that you find the right type of beyblade.

Also, you will need practice. The practice you do depends on the type of beyblade. If you are a stamina type beyblader, like me, then practice trying to get the beyblade spinning in the center and stay in the center. The less it moves the better the chance to winning the battle. If it's an attack type, try to get the beyblade into the center as quick as you can before it loses all of its energy. If it's a defense type, then try to make it spin on the outside, not trying to hit the attack beyblade but just so you don't hit it too often and if you are a balance, then try to make sure that you use all of your strength to make it spin faster.

Also, if you are going to practice, then you might need somewhere to practice. Some people don't have a beystadium at their home like me. But some thing that I have found useful is the toilet. If you have a defense type then you can put a bucket in the toilet and spin the beyblade on the seat. If its a stamina, you can do it anywhere smooth, like wood or the bench. If attack, then you put the stopper on the bathroom sink or the bath and same for the attack.

How much is a singer touch n sew model 609 worth?

According to one repair person I took mine to, it is worth $50 and not worth repairing. I took it to another dealer and it will cost $75 to repair it. I think it's well worth it since all the attachments and the manual are intact and it works just fine. Feed dogs are broken and there is a gear that needs to be replaced, otherwise it has worked fine since 1973.

The value of this sewing machine is approximately zero ($0.00). There is nothing wrong with that particular make or model. Ninety-nine percent of these older, electro-mechanical sewing machines aren't worth anything because the cost of having it serviced approaches or exceeds the price of a NEW machine from a discount store. A new $89 machine will do everything the old one does and more. An old machine that has been stored away for years always requires service, even though it appears to sew ok for a quick test. All the grease and oil which lubricated the machine has either hardened or turned to varnish. This gunk has to be cleaned out and the machine lubricated else the machine will jam and break threads on the first project. Although older machines might be constructed from mostly metal, this alone doesn't make them "better" than a new machine having a lot of plastic parts. Mass produced, consumer goods from yesteryear have all same short comings of modern mass produced, consumer goods. They cut corners to save cost. You don't find out what these corners are until you have a problem. You are unlikely to break a new machine but if you do then you can take it back. Breaking an old machine will lead you down a path of frustration. You'll discover that the "all metal" machine has little plastic gears and a rubber timing belt, both of which have become fragile with age. This is why there is little to no market for old sewing machines. When you own an old sewing machine that you must get rid of, feel satisfied if you find it a good home; otherwise it will end up in a landfill. Of course, you can always stick it to someone by asking a high price for the machine than laying in wait for someone who doesn't know how to value such items. This happens all the time in antique stores.
