On the bottom of the ice maker mold there is a thermal switch. If it is not working correctly it can cause the system to dump ice early or late. The problem I had with my ice maker is that the Teflon

What kind of drywall cutting are you needing to do? I use a Rotozip to cut out electrical outlets, etc. in drywall, but it makes too much dust and takes too long for most cutting. I use either a kni
