Mounting Ring Doorbell Video Cam on Metal Mesh Security Door

 I have one of those metal security doors with mesh screen behind the bars.  I couldn't find any kind of mount for my new Ring Doorbell Video Cam that I bought on Amazon.  I also purchased a sturdy metal mounting box for it.  

This is the doorbell I bought:  Ring Battery Doorbell Plus | Head-to-Toe HD+ Video, motion detection & alerts, and Two-Way Talk (2023 release)

This is the mounting box I bought:  Anti-Theft Doorbell Mount for Ring Battery Video Doorbell 1/2/3/3 Plus/4/Plus/(2020 Release)

I noticed the holes in the mesh screen were big enough to coax into accepting a screw.  I dug into my parts box and found two small screws with nuts that worked with the box's mounting plate.  Here's what I came up with:

In my childhood, I remember a flake breakfast cereal that was similarly shaped like Special K with smooth-edged flakes.  It had the most amazing flavor, but it wasn't sugar coated.  Here's how the conversation went down. Me:   I'm looking for the name of a flake breakfast cereal that was around in the 1970's.  The flakes were not raggedy shaped like Wheaties, Corn Flakes, or Total.  They were smooth-edged, but it wasn't Special K.   ChatGPT:   Ah, I see! Given the description, it's possible you're thinking of "Rice Krispies." Rice Krispies is a flake cereal made of crisped ric...

Best Small Iron for Quilting

I have a shelf full of steam irons, and nearly every one of them leaks water on the fabric when quilting.  When looking for yet another one, I decided to look into a small iron for quilting, preferably one with a nice point for piecing. I've seen a lot of YouTube videos using this small mini steam iron. But, people kept ironing the fabric over and over and the wrinkles were not coming out.  No wonder, it's only 420 watts!  Additionally, there are only 4 steam holes on the sole plate. One quilter recommend the Rowenta Compact Steam Iron.   Best Small Iron for Quilting It has a pointy precision tip gets into the tightest places and flatten the narrowest seams.  It's perfect for quilting, but I use it for all my ironing. 1000 watts of power.  This little iron works better at getting out wrinkles and pressing seams on my quilting pieces than any of the other irons I have on the shelf.  In fact, even when ironing full yardage, this Rowenta small iron i...
