How do you remove metal hinges from a 50-year-old wooden door that has been painted many times?
apply paint and varnish remover to the area around the hinges follow the directions on the bottle the paint should peal away and reveal the screws take a sharp knife cut around hinge then with a hammer gently tap screwdriver into slot and turn out or use a "ezy-out"you can get these at any hardware store good luck bob I agree with both the above answers, just want to provide a third possibility. A good addition to any household tool kit is a variable temperature heat gun, available at Sears. Set the temp below 500 degrees (200 degrees below the vapor point of lead based paint) and heat the area until paint just begins to bubble then scrape with a carbide scrapper, or a sharp 5-in-1 putty knife. Be sure to use a HEPA vacuum to clean up the paint chips. Chase the edges of the hinges with a utility knife to help the extraction with out ripping the edges of the wood.

Why is Blackpool called Blackpool?
the vikings
Not Vikings. Blackpool is coastal, it lies on a flat plain. on the north west coast of England, it sits twix two rivers: The Ribble and the other The Wyre. Blackpool faces the eastern Irish Sea.
The early areas of Blackpool were marshy interland and sand dune coast line, the mash water drained out into the Irish Sea, the exit place was in the in the vicinity of what is now called Manchester square. The area just prior to discharged to the sea was pooled, the colour of the water, was dark-black....ya get the drift!
The early people did incorporate Viking blood, there are still traces, you can see the linage every Friday night in the pub....rather shouty, obnoxious and drunk. Alas no Kirk Douglas.
Blackpool was named in relative early times, well after Doomsday, probably around mid 18th century. Blackpule. A local village just north Bispham is mention in the book as well as Lytham St Annes....which has a Golf Masters Open course. Tiger Woods failed miserably at this venue.
Can you get a train from Liverpool airport to Blackpool?
Yes, the Airlink 501 bus operates from the airport every 15 minutes and takes 10 minutes to get to Liverpool South Parkway train station from the airport. Arriva buses 80a and 86a also go to South Parkway. All bus stops are just outside the terminal building, which are clearly signposted. Alternatively, a taxi takes about 5-8 minutes but will cost more than the bus.
Two trains an hour operate from Liverpool South Parkway to Manchester Piccadilly and take just under 40 minutes.
Also, a slower train (operated by Northern Rail), leaves Liverpool South Parkway to Manchester Oxford Road which is also in the centre of Manchester. This journey takes just under 1 hour.
An adult single ticket purchased at the station on the day costs just over £10, however if purchased online before travel - advance tickets can be purchased. These tickets restrict you to a specific train though, so if you miss it you'll have to purchase a brand new ticket.
Also, if you book online you can combine the bus and train journey to one ticket - instead of typing Liverpool South Parkway as your departure station online, type Liverpool Airport.
A website where this definitely can be booked as a combined ticket (bus & train) is - First Transpennine Express- you can combine the journey with any type of ticket (not just advance tickets). I have attached a link to their website below.
Also, to confuse matters further there is a dedicated coach service, which frequently operates to and from the airport to Manchester city centre via the fastest road route. The route is operated by terravision and takes around 50 minutes. Book online before travel. I have attached a link to their website below as well!
Hope this info helps!
