Appliance repairman would be more apropos, but... there's often shortage of factory-stock items that DO go bad with age. An 'authorized' repairman can't always use non-factory items. So, you can replace the last inch or two of wire with new high-temp wire (or just fiberglas spaghetti over a bare wire), and you can make the element connection with something other than a crimp. I like silver solder (jewelry-making supplies, it only takes a few milligrams of Ag alloy) with appropriate (solder salts) flux and a propane torch. Lap the wire and electrode, wrap with a thin copper strand to hold it, flux, crimp a silver bit onto it, and get it redhot. Spot-welding works, too, when the temperature doesn't serve crimps well, but most of us don't have that apparatus handy. |

Haha... in all seriousness, I have been burned by enough people online, that I do use a phone book when looking for a contractor. I've chalked up anyone that doesn't advertise in the yellow pages as anywhere from inferior to total scam artist at this point. |

Just a big bullliten board where you can post most anything. I have asked on there for several contractors and plumbers and painters. So far every one people on there recommend have been execellent. Most people like the painter does not not need to advertise as they stay busy by word of mouth. Took me 2 months before I could get a painter as he was that far behind. Same with a concrete company to pour a pad for a garage. Once they got started they were here every day on time wether permitting. |
