Tool Taped to my Insinkerator Garbage Disposal.

Question: I have this tool that is taped to my insinkerator garbage disposal. What is it for?

Answer: The tool is an allen style wrench that you can use to un-jam your disposal. The operation is very simple, take the allen tool and put it in the allen bolt in the bottom of the disposal. This allows you to move the mechanism without electrical power. Then you can spin it a few times with the wrench. Then turn on the water and the disposal and it should clear the blockage.

See the photo above for a bottom view of the disposal and one of the wrench, where you use the wrench.

Christmas Faucet is This an Appropriate Gift For My Wife?

Question: I was thinking about buying my wife an expensive kitchen faucet for Christmas. Is this a good idea?

Answer: Ah the appliance for christmas question. Yes, I think a faucet is an appropriate gift. However, not an un-installed faucet. Do what ever it takes to surprise her and have it installed before Christmas.

This will do a couple of things for you, surprise and respect. She will be surprised that she get's to use the faucet and she will respect that you installed it.

One more disclaimer: I do think it is a good gift, but you should have another gift besides the faucet. Like Jewelry.
