Meet The Faucet Doctor

Specializing in obsolete parts!

Clifford IS The Faucet Doctor.

He refurbished our decrepit spigot/faucet and now we have water without a leak! After two days of having the water turned off in the house, we are eternally grateful for his expertise.

Amazing. Miraculous, if you ask me.

When your home is 100 years old, it’s hard to find replacement parts. Steve found the Faucet Doctor and replacement parts weren’t a problem.

He just kept the part overnight, and by noon the next day? Voila! it’s like brand new. Steve put it in place and he turned the water back on. I was able to run the dishwasher, start the washing machine and take a shower. Hooray! Thank you Faucet Doctor.

A really cool invention of his.
He even demonstrated how it works.
I should have taken notes.
Hope he files for that patent.
Nobody doesit better!!
Tucked away in Braddock Hills, just a 17 minute drive from my old house
to The Faucet Doctor.
Happy the leak has been resolved!

In a Friend’s Garden

On this super hot day in July, I filmed a 24 second video of the loveliest peaceful fountain in an urban garden. Thanks Bev. Your garden is an oasis of serenity. Surrounded by coneflowers and daisies and whimsical rabbit sculptures. I appreciated your showing me.

24 second video, the water bubbling & flowing over the sphere

I could watch the water flow over the ridges of the sphere for a long time

The 3 Water Bells

“It turns out that this effect was already studied for the first time in 1833 by the famous French physicist Félix Savart and has fascinated many great physicist ever since (Boussinesq (1869), Taylor (1959) and, recently, Clanet (2001)). They found that the shape of the bell can be understood as an delicate interplay between inertia, surface tension and gravity click for more information from a physicist‘s perspective
