hey, nice job on the garbage disposal. I will need to be doing the same in the house we just moved into end of last year. It would clunk and then hum when I flipped the switch. I was going to put some PB blaster in it, and then try to coax is with a screw driver or wrench or something, but when I went to test again before doing this, it wasn't doing any thing. So I just left it. No biggie, as we didn't have one in the last place.

Pretty straight forward I would imagine?

I like birds man. Always have. We have a huge red tail hawk in my back yard here. The next door neighbors told us that he has been living in our back yard for about three years. We are the first people to live in this house since they said he moved back there. So, he is watching us with much interest. Last week I was about 30 yards in the back yard, and was watching my wife and girl on the deck when he came around the side of the house with his swing spread to about a 3ft span. it was a very slow glide and eerily silent. I **** you not, he went right over my wife's head and then casually continued on towards me with his head sorta cocked. He was looking right at me as he went about ten feet above my head. Then on down the hill he turned and went. Not one flap of the wings. Left quite an impression on me. Now, there are two more hanging around.
We see them circling each other and screeching. Usually one or two will stay up high. I can tell they are gaming each other. Occasional quick turns and then an eventual dive towards another. doesn't seem too aggressive or anything. More like a territorial game or something. But very cool to watch.
