Paper, I've been learning alot myself. Repairs, improvement, etc, but there's always something I never figured on.

And while men are another body to feed, pickup after and tend to, they sure are nice to talk to, cuddle up with and well you know.blushing


and plumbing. no matter how much i learn, i won't ever be able to handle plumbing.

and yeah, i guess i've got to agree with you on 'well you know' blushing

That sucks Atlantis. It also sucks going to BBQs in the neighborhood alone. People look at you like your pathetic. I know, I just got back.

apparently. Had my new stove delivered and the guy said I needed to remove the old anti-tip bracket, install the new one and it would be fine. "Have your husband do it", then he left.

Ok, so now my stove is too low (he didn't adjust the bottom), it doesn't fit back against the wall (assuming old anti-tip bracket is in the way) and it's too big for me to move by myself to fix it.

Where can I get this husband to fix it? And can I rent or do I have to buy? If I have to buy, I'll just use the microwave.

Daniel, way to self promote. You will make some woman very lucky.



lol, also if you havent already found out, an anti tip bracket is normally just a piece of l-shaped metal that is attached to both the floor or wall and the object in question; in this case your stove. If yuo do not have any earthquakes, I would not worry about it, as it's primary purpose is to just prevent an object from tipping over/falling during said earthquake.

To raise the height of the oven, flip it on its side, and look at the bases corners; you should see four plastic or metal posts that can be screwed in or out as needed. You need to adjust those screws accordingly in order to raise and/or balance the stove.


The anti tip bracket is there to keep the stove from tipping over if someone like a small child leans on the oven door when it's open causing the stove to tip over and shoving said person head first into a hot oven.

Chrissy..... hire or loan a trolley, the kind used for shifting fridges...shift the stove out from the wall, so you can get in there...

use a drill with a driver head, phillips or straight...unscrew the old anti tip bracket...measure the height for the new one...attahc to wall..


whilst the stove is away from the wall..adjust the feet/base to the right height...move into position...remove trolley.

Or wander down to the local men's barber shop, and ask an old geezer if he knows how to do it...and pay him a couple of bucks to do it for you.

Either that or what else she COULD do is to just call up the appliance store and simply complain that the "guy" didn't finish the job. It's a safety feature and it was his responsibility to install it correctly.

Squeeky wheel get's the grease.

Men don't realize how valuable they are to us. But, somehow when pushed up against a wall we women do survive.{I'd like to be pushed up against a wall!winking }
I bought an A/C to go into the existing opening in the wall. I bought the wrong size(actually it was what I could afford)and so now there are 3" of daylight all around the A/C. I cut up a filter and stuffed strips of it around the A/C.
My clothes dryer quit so I took it apart and installed a new belt around the drum.

I did that and they said they don't install ranges. It is a non-install appliance. Other than a plug, there is no electrical, mechanical, plumbing work required.

I'm sorry Allen, that was uncalled for. I'm frustrated but that's not an excuse. My apologies.

It's cool...

I was just going by when I, myself, used to sub-contract and install appliances. I'd of not got away with not installing the bracket and adjusting the legs for level side to side & front to back.
