I did this a few years back when we first moved into the new house. Soil dug needed amending which made planting take even longer so the first fall, I dug the holes, mixed the dug soil with amendments and put it in an empty plant pot back into the hole ready for spring. Worked really well for the one bed I was able to get done. The hardest work was done in cooler weather with no mosquitoes.

Lynn, how funny, I have an LG fridge, GE Café range and KA dishwasher also! Stainless steel actually has a grain, but it's at the microscopic level, so you can't really see it. What you do see on stainless appliances is the brushed finish that was put on the metal. Basically, it's an even finish of small scratches put on by an abrasive material. Think of the big cylindrical roller that goes over your car at the car wash, only made out of an sandpaper. That's why the finish is not necessarily the same on different brands; they choose how rough they want the finish. My GE range has a coarser finish than the others. Lynn, your dishwasher probably has a much finer finish, so smudges show more, it's smoother. My KA dishwasher is magnetic also, unlike the other appliances. On all my appliances the direction of the finish is horizontal. You can probably see it better if you look at it with a magnifying glass. There are many types of stainless steel, depending on how they were manufactured and the exact composition of the metal. Different casting methods/composition produce materials with different microstructures and chemical/mechanical properties. Some handle corrosion better than others, some weld well, some can be formed easily, some can be fabricated and then heat treated to make them stronger, some are magnetic and others are not. An example would be the 18/10 stainless that is recommended for cookware. It's chemical composition helps it resist corrosion from food acids, household chemicals, and rust. However, since it's not one of the stronger stainless steels, you wouldn't want to use it for the valves in your car engine. At the company where I work, we routinely deal with about 12 different types of stainless. The application it will be used for and fabrication techniques vary depending on the specific type.

I registered with my yahoo email address hours ago and still haven't gotten the acceptance. I do have a Facebook acct. but find them too invasive so stay logged out as much as possible. Reluctant to use it. Just letting you know there's a problem. I'll try again, though.

No firegurl, There isn't anything like that at this time, but it has been mentioned and I've got my fingers crossed that in time, we will have that capability again.
