Wooden Stick Flag and Stars

Wooden Stick Flag and StarsI have wanted to make one of these using paint stir sticks for a while now. I have always known that paint stirrers are so versatile. I just needed the sticks and the paint and the time. I hope you like it.

 

A hammock swing hanging in a sunny location.

Protecting a Hammock Swing from the WeatherI love our hammock swing which we have on our screened in porch. I want it to last a long time. I have a cover to help protect it from rain and night humidity. I made the cover by cutting the bottom off a commercial size trash bag and cut the side to open it up. It gave me a 71 inch by 58 inch piece of plastic.

 

A completed pan of grated sweet potato pudding.

Grated Sweet Potato PuddingMy mother used to make this. I remember eating it as a child and it was so good. This is my cousin's recipe. When her health was good, she would make this and bring it to our covered dish family gatherings. It was enjoyed by all.

Questions

A spinning object in a backyard.

What is this Spinning Object?Someone found this in their yard in Ohio. I feel like maybe it was some kind of feeder, but I am unsure. Could someone shed some light on this? A merry go round has been suggested but it seems too small for that.

Information for Vogue Stitch Sewing Machine?Do you have a manual for a Vogue Stitch model 999B sewing machine? Is there a video available to show thread path of this machine? Who made and repairs this machine?

 

An old treadle sewing machine.

Value of Winselmann Treadle Sewing Machine?My wife bought this from her brother and now she doesn't need it anymore. I'm wondering how much it's worth? It has a serial number of 277853 if that helps.

 

A wooden end table.

Unidentified End Table?This end table came along with our house and we've decided we no longer have use for it. Searched all over and the only identifiers on it are the numbers 3342 and a stamp dated 1959, as pictured, which leads me to believe it's around the same age.

 

Reddish brown eggs on a white surface.

Are these Insect Eggs?I went on vacation for a whole month. And I walk in my living room to find only these little brown eggs I believe they are. They are sort of disgusting me out but, if anybody has any ideas what they are please let me know ASAP!

What are these Tiny Bugs?What is this tiny bug? I can't include a picture because they are too small to see through camera. They are tan in color and have two long antennae. Their legs are not visible. They almost look like eraser shavings walking around. Whenever I try to squish one, it jumps somewhere else.

Looking for Help for a Parvo Puppy?My 8 week Dutch Shepherd is now on day 6 of Parvo. We had him at the vet for the first four and he remained stable. Now that he is home, he has been drinking water on his own and we have been forcing him to take his meds; metronidazole twice a day, cerenia once a day, a rebound formula and some probiotics we started on day five, as well syringe feeding him three times a day baby food. All of which he has been keeping down!

 

Marks on a glossy refrigerator.

Fixing Damage from Magic Eraser on RefrigeratorI used magic eraser on black glossy refrigerator door. We bought a used refrigerator and I used magic eraser around the door hand and some marks on the door that I thought were grease and wouldn't come off with soap and water. The magic eraser ruined it!
