comment How can I clean floor tile grout?
I would hazard a guess and say yes. Bleach is basic, and marble is a calcite so it shouldn't be affected. Spot test to be sure though!

comment Why are cordless drill batteries so expensive?
From what I understand of the dreamliner issues is they either didn't cool the batteries enough, or over charged them. Typically it takes a very large drain over a significant amount of time to cause them to overheat enough to be dangerous, and it's not likely to happen from a drill. (They can also overheat from too rapid charging, but they can charge faster than any other type of battery chemistry) The limiting factor with li-ion is it's cost. Their batteries are even more expensive.

I think you covered all the common battery chemistry except lithium-ion. It can have up to 730 watt hours per liter. It's also stable when charges and does not self drain quickly.

Just as a heads up, my question has the name of the phone block, it's dynaflex inc, and they're out of business.

I'm not sure I can, there are studs on both sides of it, not sure how close, but they are close enough the cabinet is screwed into them. I think standard size is 19 inches? I can't put that in the wall there, this is an exterior wall.

If this needs to be moved to ServerFault/Superuser, please move it, I wasn't for sure where it needed to go.

comment How can I convert a propane fireplace to natural gas?
I found an online dealership selling parts for the fireplace, and it looks like the fireplace has a separate set of parts for natural gas, and propane. I just need to figure out which parts to buy.

comment How do I keep my Christmas tree from falling over?
My mother loads her Christmas tree down with so many ornaments that until we started using a guyline, it fell at least twice a season. We use clear fishing line as the guyline, it's invisible unless you know it's there.

comment Can someone help me identify this spiral staircase system?
Perhaps you should ask the seller what type of staircase it is?
