Anyone know the name of a substance to paint on the back of rugs to keep them from slipping?

I have tried pads, etc., but I found one thing that works to stop rugs from sliding it's just that I need help to find it again. It's a white substance that's painted to the backside of the rug. The directions say to paint it on, leave it to dry and coat a second time within 12 hours. Problem is I tossed the jar not realizing how great it works. It's a rubberized substance that has held my runner in place (hasn't moved an inch in 2 weeks) on carpeted steps.


I have checked with Home Depot and a large crafts store but no luck. Also looked on-line but haven't found anything close.


Thanks for your help.

I've never seen or heard of this. But, if you cannot find it, you can use double sided carpet tape to stop it from moving. You simply tape it around the edges and it will hold even when vacuuming or moving furniture. My area rugs have been in place for 8 years with the exception of having them cleaned, they don't move.
Reply:Sorry i can not remember the name, but ther is a kind of material that you should be able to find in a carpet shop.


we used it on wood floor and tiles and it work perfectly.


It looks like fiber glass, but it is soft to the touch.


hope it will help.
Reply:Duck Tape it so totally helps!!
Reply:Dear "rug slipper", use super glue. Really, it works. Claudia
Reply:Go to the store and look for something like rug stick. It is tacky on both sides so the rug stays where you want it. It is material.

What was the name of the early 90's computer game that starts with the letter D?

It was a first person action game where you would fly around the levels. The game featured gray-like levels, with inverted keyboard controls, weapons such as plasma, and once you found the boss, you had to find the exit of the level before it blew up. The title is something like Dement or Default or something, not sure.

What is the name of the robot that checks the hole in Earth's crust?

I was reading the news the other day (CNN or BBC, don't remember which) and I read this article about a robot that was going to be sent to investigate a hole in the Earth's crust. Apparently there was a spot where the crust was completely missing, so the seawater was exposed directly to the outer mantle and formed a special kind of rock. I want to know what the name of the robot was, where the hole was, and what the special kind of rock was called. Can you help? Thanks.

A)Toby


B) about 2000 nautical miles sw of the Canary Islands in the Atlantic


C) peridotite and dunite (the upper mantle is composed of ultramafic rock called peridotite which is mostly olivines and pyroxenes. Dunite is a more olivine rich peridotite. The olivine is a green mineral which gives peridotite it's greenish brown color.

SANTA CRUZ DE TENERIFE, Canary Islands - British scientists have embarked on a mission to study a huge area on the Atlantic seabed where the Earth's crust is mysteriously missing and instead is covered with dark green rock from deep inside the planet.








The 12-member expedition to take an unprecedented peek at Earth's mantle left the Canary Islands on Monday with a new high-tech vessel and a robotic device named Toby that will dig up rock samples at the site and film what it sees.





The main site 鈥?there is at least one other in roughly the same area and a third is suspected 鈥?is about three miles below the surface of the Atlantic and located about 2,000 nautical miles southwest of the Canaries.





It is part of a globe-spanning ridge of undersea volcanos, the kind of structure that forms when Atlantic tectonic plates separate and lava surges upward to fill the gap in the Earth's crust.





But that apparently did not happen this time. Where there should be a four-mile-thick layer of crust, there is instead that much mantle 鈥?the very dense, dark green rock that makes up the deep inner layer of the Earth.





Scientists have seen chunks of mantle that have been spewed up with lava, but never such a large, exposed stretch.





"It is like a window into the interior of the Earth," Bramley Murton, a geophysicist who is taking part in the six-week mission, said Tuesday from the research ship RRS James Cook as it headed to the site, still five days away.





This exposed layer is irregularly shaped, about 30 miles long and perhaps that distance or more at its widest. It was detected about five years ago with sonar from a surface vessel.





There are two main theories as to what happened, Murton said: A fault ripped away huge chunks of crust, or in an area of crust-forming volcanoes, this area was mysteriously devoid of that outer material, Murton said.





Roger Searle of Durham University, one of the lead researchers, said the study aims to provide insight on everything from the chemistry of oceans to the mechanisms of how the Earth behaves under so much water.





The robotic device will land on the exposed mantle, deploy a drill, and dig into the rock to bring back samples.





The project is being financed by Britain's National Environment Research Council and the Department of trade and Industry's Large Scientific Facilities Fund.

What is the name of the stitch that they sew on items to be crocheted around?
I believe it is called a whip stitch and refered to as an overcast stitch, it leaves a loop at the edge of the material [ or item ], and work can be done in these loops at the edge of the fabic [ or item ].





EDIT:





Now that I see the picture of the blanket and buttonhole stitch, this is the stitch I was meaning.
Reply:whip stitch/ overcast stitch
Reply:I have always done a fine button hole stitch around these things. But you don't need a machine to do that for you.





You can do it with the crochet hook, I use size 5 to do this. It is fine enough to stick into the edge of the fabric do a single crochet and chain stitch with #40 thread, Then you can go ahead and make your border on that.
Reply:A LOT of people like the Edgery Doo:





http://www.edgerydoo.com/





The stitches come out nice and neat. Just an alternative to sewing a border.








According to a friend: "To attach the edging, you can either do a blanket stitch around the edge with a strong thread (hand quilting thread works well) and then crochet into that.





"Or, you can poke holes into the edge with an awl, a wing needle on a sewing machine, an "Edgery Doo" or a steel crochet hook and crochet into the holes. You can use thread or yarn, depending on how big your holes are."





You can go here, too:

There are a number of ways to do hemstitching, ranging from rather tedious on a straight stitch machine, to pretty easy. If this is what you're after, the book you want is Carol Ahles' Fine Machine Sewing -- she has good directions for hemstitching with straight stitchers, with zigzag capable machines, and with fancier machines. Most public libraries seem to have a copy of the book.

What is the name of the ancestor that humans and apes evolved from?

i am just curious to know what is the name of the ancestor that humans and apes evolved from and is there any proof of this transformation where apes and humans go their separate paths? i have read many answers to why why are there still monkeys around if humans evolved from them, and many of the answers say that they both evolved from this "ancestor". Also what was the difference in the environment that made these changes besides that monkeys live in trees.

What is the name of the ancestor that humans and apes evolved from?
No, the entire theory of evolution is just that, a theory. There is very little real proof that humans evolved from apes at all.





In a universe as big as ours with countless planets it is more than likely that there is life on other planets and perhaps we came from them.
Reply:A likely common ancestor of all great apes including humans, chimps, bonobos, gorillas and Orangutans was the proconsul.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proconsulid...


It is likely that proconsul, or a close relative, is the ancestor of all the great apes. And yes, the common ancestor was also an ape, just not a modern ape. Humans are apes so it is kind of hard to say when we separated from them That requires definitions of what is meant by being human. Something like Lucy or afarensis must have been more like an upright chimp than a human if you go by brain size which wasn't much beyond a chimp.
Reply:I think you want to ask first have they found the missing link. Find the one that has been called the missing link and both questions would be answered. The name of the first ancestor, The point which ape and humans took their different paths. The missing link has been the whole reason for the debate. But it is said, the remains of a creature found they nick named Lucy. Has been the oldest known remains to been found. Not a fossil either, lucy's age is as close as they have been to that answer.
Reply:The ancestor of humans/apes is NOT neandertals. They are a branch off of an earlier species, which we are all descent from, which is australopithecus, which itself had a variety of evolutions to become the form which we and apes evolved from. Homo habilis, erectus, etc, all evolved from the species of australopithecus. Which one is a source of debate in physical anthropology..
Reply:It's a common fallacy that we evolved FROM apes, we separated from Chimps about 5-7 million years ago (a quarter of a million generations). They went their way and we went into the African plains (or even to the sea, which would explain why we lost our hair, have funny noses and got brainy!). I'm not sure what that common ancestor was called. The Ancestor's Tale by R. Dawkins is a fascinating book (and audiobook) that goes back in time, meeting all our ancestors. Good luck!
Reply:To begin with the humans that branched from earlier apes are not modern humans but one of the several Homo species we know of (perhaps Homo habilis). Neither are the apes that our line branched from the modern-day apes but extinct species known only from fossil evidence.





We share a common ancestor with the primates listed on the right at every branch of the main stem of this diagram:


http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/6109/...





In front of this diagram could be drawn more branches that link all simians and apes with all the other primates, and all the primates with the other mammals, mammals with all vertebrates, vertebrates with other animal phyla, animals with fungi, fungi with plants, etc - and at the point of each branching there is a common ancestor for all of the groups that arise after the branch.





We do not have enough information to identify every common ancestor in our own unique evolutionary history. - what we have is something like this:


http://www.ecotao.com/holism/evosummary....





Humans %26amp; chimps - common ancestor a species of Ardipithecus?





Humans+chimps %26amp; gorillas+orangutans - common ancestor a species of Pierolapithecus?





Humans+chimps+gorillas+orangutans %26amp; gibbons - common ancestor a species of Kenyapithecus, Equatorius, Morotopithecus or Afropithecus.

Reply:Bats, just in time for holloween, if you don't believe me, look up human evolution in wikipedia.
Reply:neanderthalensis








Human evolution is the theory which states that humans developed from primates, or ape-like, ancestors. In 1856, a strange skull was found by some workmen in the Neander Valley in Germany. The odd appearance of the skull led some to believe that it had once belonged to a person who was afflicted with rickets. They did not believe it could have come from an ancestor of modern man. It did, however, form the notion that there could have been creatures that were half-human and half-ape. Ernst Heinrich, a German scientist, claimed that if such a creature were ever found it should be named Pithecanthropus erectus, which means upright apeman.





Even before the discovery of the skull, which is now known as Homo neanderthalensis, people hypothesized that there was some sort of transmutation that took place between species. This, however, was not widely accepted. On November 4, 1859, the view on evolution as a whole changed dramatically. This was the date that Charles Darwin published his work The Origin of Species. With the release of this work, the theory of human evolution became a bit more believable. The theory of natural selection was proposed by Darwin within The Origin of Species. This theory states that the physical traits of an organism are selected for according to the environment it lives in.





Darwin's theory piqued the interest of many scientists who went out in search of evidence which would branch the gap between apes and humans. In 1890, a Dutch physician by the name of Eugene Dubois found a low, apelike skull on the banks of a river in Java. Dubois also discovered a humanlike thigh bone near the skull. He concluded that this creature was the link between apes and humans which Heinrich hypothesized about. Other fossils began to be found which appeared to be transitional.





In 1925, Raymond Dart found a skull which was the first to be classified as Australopithecus. The skull looked apelike in appearance, but had humanlike teeth. Dart discovered the skull in a box of fossilized bones sent to him from Tuang. Mary and Louis Leakey also found a number of Australopithecine fossils. The Leakey's main area of focus was the Olduvai Gorge in Tanzania. Another researcher, Donald Johanson, found similar fossils in the Afar region of Ethiopia. Johanson is credited with finding the fossil skeleton of "Lucy", an Australopithecus afarensis, which shows that ancestors of humans were walking upright at around 3.6 million years ago.





As the amount of finds increased, so did the number of species. Today, the family Hominidae (Bipedal Primates) has grown to include the genus': Ardipithecus, the most apelike hominids. Australopithecus, small-brained gracile hominids with mixed fruit/vegetable diet. Paranthropus, smalled-brained robust hominids with a grassland vegetable diet. Homo, large-brained hominids with an omnivorous diet. These are just brief descriptions of the genus given above. Below are some examples of the genus Australopithecus and Paranthropus that eventually led to the view of the Hominidae family we have today.





A. anemensis


A. afarensis


A. africanus


A. aethiopicus


P. robustus


P. boisei


(A. is an abbreviation for Australopithecus)


(P. is an abbreviation for Paranthropus)





Even though these fossils had both human and ape characteristics, the apelike qualities outnumbered the human ones. Scientists sought to find fossils that were closer to modern man than the Australopithecines. In the early 1960's, Louis Leakey found what he thought was another P. boisei skull, however, the brain case was larger than previous finds. After collaboration with P.V. Tobias and J.R. Napier, he named the skull Homo habilis, which means "handy man". He came up with this name because of the tools found at the site of the skull. Leakey figured that the enlarged brain size made it possible for H. habilis to form tools according to how his/her mind perceived it should look like. Other species of this genus that were found include H. erectus, H. neanderthalensis, and our own species, H. sapiens sapiens.





Some controversy concerning the labeling of H. neanderthalensis as H. sapiens neanderthalensis has arisen in past years, as to whether it should be considered part of the sapiens line. Previously, Neanderthals were considered to have been the transitory form from H. erectus to H. sapiens sapiens. The ideology then shifted to a position that Neanderthals were not a transitory form, but were instead a genetic dead end. Their abrupt disappearance in the fossil record has yielded suggestions that Neanderthals were outcompeted and replaced by anatomically modern human beings. The current viewpoint among many people is that Neanderthals were in fact a separate species and have been labeled by some as H. neanderthalensis, dropping "sapiens" from the name.
Reply:According to the overwelming evidence that supports the Theory of Evolution, drawn from phylogentic comparison and well as DNA analysis the common ancestor for humans and chimpanzees existed around 5-6 million years ago.





Without the actual DNA of this species science will never be able to point to a single extinct species and say it was definitely the common ancestor, just that a species is the most probable common ancestor.





The fossil record of forest dwelling ancient apes is sparse as acid soils tend to dissolve bone so we do not have a lot of examples from the period.





It has been suggested that species close to last common ancestors of gorillas, chimpanzees and humans may be represented by Nakalipithecus fossils found in Kenya and Ouranopithecus found in Greece





For the chimpanzee/human split no species has been firmly identified but it would be similar to early examples of Ardipithecus or Australopithecus. Another possibility is Sahelanthropus tchadensis but more examples need to be found as its possible that this fossil ape represents an early member of the gorilla lineage. A further possibility is Orrorin tugenensis.





The main factor that seems to have driven the differences between chimpanzees and the ancestors of modern humans was a process of emergence from heavy forests into the plains resulting in a more gracile (slender) bone structure with a reduction is jaw size and a move to a bipedal stance better suited to walking in open spaces.





As for solid evidence of the link between modern apes and humans the most compelling evidence is the similarity in our genomes, the fusion of human chromosome 2 from ape chromosomes (2p and 2q) and also the pattern of multiple Endogenous Retroviral (ERV) insertions in the genomes of the apes.





Strictly speaking Humans are Apes, just as we are mammals.





The "why are there still monkeys" argument is a very silly one, its akin to saying why are these still wolves now that we have bred dogs by domesticating wolves. The whole concept of evolution is that species change and diverge, often adapting to new environmental niches, its an explanation for the diversity of life.

Reply:Here's some information on Bala sharks-








The Bala shark, Balantiocheilos melanopterus, also known as the tricolor shark, silver shark, or shark minnow, is a fish species of the family Cyprinidae, and has long been considered the sole member of the genus Balantiocheilos. This species is not a true shark, but is commonly called a "shark" because of its torpedo-shaped body and large fins.








Distribution





The Bala shark occurs in the Mekong and Chao Phraya River basins, Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and Borneo.The Bala shark will grow to a max. length of 15 inches but take a long time to do so.





Appearance and anatomy





These fish have a silver body with black margins on their dorsal, caudal, anal, and pelvic fins. These fish can reach 35 centimetres (15 in).





Habitat and ecology





Bala sharks are found in midwater depths in large and medium-sized rivers and lakes. They feed on phytoplankton, but mostly on small crustaceans, rotifers, and insects and their larvae.











Bala sharks are popular aquarium fish.Despite the common name "shark", these fish are generally peaceful and good companions to many other types of tropical fish. However, the Bala shark is an omnivore and will eat other animals if they're small enough to fit in their mouths (including other smaller fish, and shrimp). Shrimp (ghost shrimp, krill, etc.) should have adequate hiding places to keep them from getting eaten. Bala sharks are widely available in most pet stores, but these fish may grow to a size too large for the home aquarium.





They're hardy fish that will tolerate temperature changes, pH changes, and other factors to which other fish may be sensitive. The water pH should be 6.0鈥?.0. The preferable water hardness for this species is soft to medium (5.0鈥?2.0 dGH). Water temperature should be kept between 22鈥?8掳C (72鈥?2掳F).[2] The Bala shark prefers be kept in groups of five or more specimens (although they can survive alone).[2] These fish require a covered aquarium as they are skilled jumpers.


Very young Bala sharks are sometimes kept in small aquaria. However, given their adult size, schooling behavior, and swimming speed, the fish quickly grow to need much more room. Hobbyists continue to debate over acceptable minimum tank sizes, but generally recommend at least a 6 feet tank. FishBase lists a minimum of 150 cm (5 ft). Many believe the fish is simply too large and too active to be kept in commercial aquaria at all; only enormous, custom-built tanks are acceptable, if any tank at all is. Indoor ponds are also considered feasible housing options and may be better suited to the average aquarist. This fish's habitat is often destroyed, making these fish rare in the wild.

The Little Red Hen


Sara Cone Bryant (Retold from Joseph Jacobs)











One day as the Little Red Hen was scratching in a field, she found a grain of wheat.





"This wheat should be planted," she said. "Who will plant this grain of wheat?"


"Not I," said the Duck.





"Not I," said the Cat.





"Not I," said the Dog.





"Then I will," said the Little Red Hen. And she did.





Soon the wheat grew to be tall and yellow.





"The wheat is ripe," said the Little Red Hen. "Who will cut the wheat?"


"Not I," said the Duck.





"Not I," said the Cat.





"Not I," said the Dog.





"Then I will," said the Little Red Hen. And she did.





When the wheat was cut, the Little Red Hen said, "Who will thresh the wheat?"





"Not I," said the Duck.


"Not I," said the Cat.





"Not I," said the Dog.





"Then I will," said the Little Red Hen. And she did.





When the wheat was threshed, the Little Red Hen said, "Who will take this wheat to the mill?"





"Not I," said the Duck.


"Not I," said the Cat.





"Not I," said the Dog.





"Then I will," said the Little Red Hen. And she did.





She took the wheat to the mill and had it ground into flour. Then she said, "Who will make this flour into bread?"





"Not I," said the Duck.


"Not I," said the Cat.





"Not I," said the Dog.





"Then I will," said the Little Red Hen. And she did.





She made and baked the bread. Then she said, "Who will eat this bread?"





"Oh! I will," said the Duck.


"And I will," said the Cat.





"And I will," said the Dog.





"No, No!" said the Little Red Hen. "I will do that." And she did.

I am a private pilot and I experienced this once when I flying a solo cross country,, but it was about half an hour after takeoff so I was fresh,, I paid more attention and realized that it was some kind of glare due to sun..





Had I seen this after 2hrs into flight I am sure I would be betting my backside that its was UFO. Flying takes its toll on pilots,, I have flown long flights with my instructors in hot California sun,, near the end both of us feeling and acting as if we just smoked a pot..





And this is especially true about manual flying (planes not equipped with autopilot), So that can explain this happening with ww2 fighter pilots,, u can imagine them sitting in that loud, vibrating cockpit for hours under tense situation

What is the technical name for the little window that opens up between the kitchen/living areas of some homes?

Some call it a pass through

What is the technical name for the little window that opens up between the kitchen/living areas of some homes?
It is/was called a "serving window" and was used in households and houses where you had a kitchen staff and a wait staff. The kitchen staff placed food items in the serving window and the wait staff would serve at the table, and return the platters to the serving window where the kitchen staff would retrieve them. At least that is what I learned from seeing some of the bigger mansions in the small town where I grew up in Illinois. I, of course, lived on the wrong side of the tracks from the big houses. This window is now more of a simple decoration than a useful modification serving a useful purpose.

If it's a above a doorway (or other high places), it's called a transom window -- was used in pre-airconditioning days to get a breeze through without having an open doorway.

Hello,





First check at http://www.whois.sc following:





1. Name of ICANN Registrar


2. Details in Admin Contact details





If admin contact details are yours, then approach Registrar directly and ask them to provide you control panel. They will help you for gain control on domain name.





If admin details are not yours, then it is bit difficult for you to prove that domain is owned by you.





Still contact registrar and ask if they can help you in this matter. They may ask you to provide few legal documentation and some other proof to give you the control of domain.

Reply:Check http://who.is And See Domain Registerer If It Same As Company Name So You'll Lost It But If It's Different Than Company Name You Won't Lose It But You Have To Connect It With The New Hosting By Editing DNS Settings From The Domain Registerer . Website Will Be Lost In Both Situations .

That would be QQQQ, that is a Nasdaq 100 Powershares ETF The largest, by market cap, companies on the NASDAQ. There are quite a few to choose from if you are looking for just the largest companies.

What is the common name for hydrogen hydroxide?

I need an answer to the question above as soon as possible, it is for a project!

What is the common name for hydrogen hydroxide?
also called dihydrogen monoxide - nasty stuff - to see all about its dangers see www.dhmo.org





From this very informative site, some common dangers...


# Death due to accidental inhalation of DHMO, even in small quantities.


# Prolonged exposure to solid DHMO causes severe tissue damage.


# Excessive ingestion produces a number of unpleasant though not typically life-threatening side-effects.


# DHMO is a major component of acid rain.


# Gaseous DHMO can cause severe burns.


# Contributes to soil erosion.


# Leads to corrosion and oxidation of many metals.


# Contamination of electrical systems often causes short-circuits.


# Exposure decreases effectiveness of automobile brakes.

Reply:What? Water please!





Th
Reply:Okay, ignore the answer telling you to ignore the answer about DHMO, because that's EXACTLY what it is! Which IS water!





Dangerous stuff, it'll kill you if you breathe it!
Reply:Okay, ignore the answer about DHMO. The answer is WATER. Think of it like this - a hydroxide is a compound containing the hydroxyl ion - OH. Add a hydrogen atom to it - H, and you have HOH, in other words H20, in other words, water.





Hope this helps.


What is a good name for a designer denim clothing store?

I plan to open one up, and am having trouble picking out a name so I can go get a business license. I want something that stands out and is not forgetable.

Well that all depends on who you clients will be. If you want all kinds of people to purchase your jeans and not just those who fit into a size zero you may want to come up with a name that will be attractive to all.

What is the best name and model sewing machine ?

In the price range of $300 or less, what is the best sewing machine to buy? Brand name and model specific please. It would be used to create designed stitches, and would like to make button holes but not a must have.

What is the best name and model sewing machine ?
"create designed stitches" is not a phrase I really understand.... are you trying to say that it needs to do embroidery? Or are you saying you need programmable stitch functions? Or are you telling me it will be used for a variety of garments? If you can clarify for me, I'd be happy to try further. Otherwise, here's my advice for first sewing machines:





http://www.cet.com/~pennys/faq/smfaq.htm





What I want for beginners in sewing:





- a machine that doesn't scare you


- a machine that isn't balky (cheap new machines are often very


balky or need adjustments often and are rarely repairable --


just too frustrating to learn on!)


- very good straight stitch


- good zigzag (4-5 mm is fine, more than that is gravy)


- a method of making buttonholes that makes sense to you


- adjustable presser foot pressure (which helps some fabric


handling issues)


- accessory presser feet that don't cost an arm and a leg


(machines that use a "short shank foot" typically handle


generic presser feet pretty well. Some brands of machines use


proprietary or very expensive presser feet)





If the budget stretches far enough:





- blindhem and stretch blindhem stitches


- triple zigzag (nice for elastic applications)


- a couple of decorative stitches (you won't use them nearly as


much as you think)


- electronic machine because of the needle position control and


because the stepper motors give you full "punching force" at


slow sewing speeds -- mechanical machines often will stall at


slow speeds.








Please go to the best sewing machine dealers around and ask them


to show you some machines in your price range, *especially* used


machines you can afford. You'll get a far better machine buying


used than new, and a good dealer is worth their weight in sewing


machine needles when you get a machine problem -- often they can


talk you through the problem over the phone. While you're trying


things out, try a couple of machines (sewing only, not combo


sewing-embroidery) over your price limit, just so you can see


what the difference in stitch quality and ease of use might be.


You may find you want to go for the used Cadillac. Or you might


want the new basic Chevy. Might as well try both out.





Suggested reading: John Giordano's The Sewing Machine Book


(especially for used machines), Carol Ahles' Fine Machine Sewing


(especially the first and last few chapters) and Gale Grigg


Hazen's Owner's Guide to Sewing Machines, Sergers and Knitting


Machines. All of these are likely to be available at your public


library.





Used brands I'd particularly look for: Elna, Bernina,


Viking/Husqvarna, Pfaff, Singer (pre 1970), Juki, Toyota





New "bargain brand" I'd probably pick: Janome (who also does


Kenmore).
Reply:We bought my 14 year old daughter a Husqvarna Emerald 116 for around $300 at The Stitching Post inside JoAnn Fabrics for her birthday. It came with a TWO year warranty and free lessons. The sales lady said my daughter should easily get ten years use out of it before she'll need to upgrade to something more advanced as it's simple enough for a beginner, yet enough options to keep her intersted without confusing her.


The Singer, which was about $100 less, had plastic gears and only came with a 30 day warranty. She said people come back with 'buyers remorse' and get the Husky


What is the proper name for the caker portioner tool?

you put it on a cake and it leaves slight lines to show where to cut. i am thinking of buying 1 4 my mum for her birthday, but i dont know where i can find one or what it is called.

I never knew they had one, I've always just cut it; if the pieces are even then lucky everyone, but if not sorry.
Reply:I would just call it a cake slicer, didn't know it had an official name!
Reply:A cake portioner is actually what you call them. My aunt does wedding, birthday, special occasion cakes for a living. She uses the double sided ones like on the link below. Each side gives the cut lines for different portions or slices per cake.


Hope this helps you find one for your Mum!
Reply:I think Lakeland will have it; they have a website where you can order. Lakeland have lots and lots of useful cooking aids - and lots of useless ones too like 'cake portioners'! Do you think your mum really needs one or would a bunch of flowers be better? Anyway, have a look through Lakeland's site and you may find some better ideas.....
Reply:Don't you think she will think you think she's a bit daft needing a caker portioner lol. maybe she want's bigger or smaller slices Iv'e never heard of a caker portioner lol tool ?????? Get her a nice cake slicer maybe those that look like a trowel you can get fancy ones from good shop's.
