Hey everyone!!

JunkBusters is thriving here in South Florida! Jeremy, Stephen, and I started a small junk-hauling company in the Broward/Miami-Dade area about 6 months ago. Things have been going ok and we seem to get more jobs as the days go on. Check out the image gallery for a recent pic of one of our jobs. The picture shows the results of cleaning out a 1-bedroom condo. Thank goodness it all fit!

Remember, for all your junk cleanup/hauling needs, call JunkBusters at 305-968-0062!

Family-owned and operated with quick, courteous service!

I am of course, referring to personal computers. My preference is to build my own. The reasons are as follows;

1. Pick your parts. Pick any parts, from motherboard, to video card, to power supply, to hard drive, to DVD drive, to the case. Each piece is not a compromise, each piece is normally reviewed on several websites, so I know what to expect when I purchase, and normally get the lowest price available, for the highest quality hardware.
2. Putting the pieces together. The actual assembly of the hardware is a learning experience. It is not as difficult as some imagine. It does often times require troubleshooting why a fan is not spinning up, or why you are getting no display, but, as long as you don’t give up, the end result is a hand built machine, not unlike some of the custom cars of today.

Hey everyone!

Check out the image gallery for new pics of Mom's kitchen. I have to say that it looks great! Can't wait to see it in person.

OK so together, Heather and I made a custom IKEA sectional from 2 sofas that Jeremy and Lauren had given us. It turned out great and almost looks like it came that way.

We started with the two sofas and figured out the layout we wanted, you know right or left handed for the sectional. Ours is right-handed (I think.) This meant removed the arm from one of the sofas and then figuring out a way to reattach the feet on the bottom to something on the sofa so that everything would be level and look factory. After cutting off the fabric and foam off of the arm we had selected for destruction, we discovered that IKEA makes sofas from cardboard, particle board, and not much else. There were a couple pieces of wood but the shape and main supports were a combination of cardboard paper and particle board. Hey, I don't care, cause you cant buy anything like it anywhere else! I still think its great stuff. The arm is pretty much just bolted to the end of the sofa, which made taking it off a breeze. 4 bolts and off it came. Now, I wanted to reuse the bottom of the arm so that I could reuse the feet. I measured the clearance on the inside bottom of the sofa, and cut the arm down to about 4 1/4 inches high and about 31 inches long. This allowed it to fit inside the sofa, hidden from view, but still providing the foot mount that I wanted. It also bolted back to the sofa frame, making it a rather sturdy installation as well. I just reused the bolts that I had removed earlier. I had to drill new holes for the bolts. Once I bolted it back on, and put the feet back into the mounts, we tried it out. The sofa worked! (Thank goodness!) We used the fabric from the arm to cover the bare patch that was where the arm used to bolt too. Heather made a template from the sofa, then transferred it and cut it out of the fabric. We took foam from the arm and refoamed the bare area since it is now the "end" of the sofa. Heather then took dark blue thread and an upholstery needle and sewed the fabric back on, creating an almost factory appearance.
