The boy mechanic, book 3 - Unknown

Frequently, in placing a coil spring on a screen or other door, the casing is flush with the door, and it is difficult to give the spring the desired leverage. If it is attached to the casing directly, the surface is marred by the rubbing of the spring. A good method is to set a small iron bracket, either homemade of strap iron or one of the commercial type, on the casing and attach the end of the spring to the bracket. This prevents the spring from rubbing on the door and casing, and gives it freedom of action.—Harry L. Dixon, Chicago, Ill.

Combination Indirect-Light Reflector and Mirror

A small mirror combined with a shaded electric lamp affords a nearly perfect shaving lamp, and facial toilet mirror. The mirror should be 1 in. smaller all around than the reflector. By soldering two lengths of stiff wire to the back of the mirror frame, it can be clamped to the reflector, as shown. The indirect light from the reflector illuminates the face without shadows or glare, adding to the comfort of shaving. The mirror can be removed, and the lamp used for other purposes.—Thomas W. Benson, Philadelphia, Pa.
