Welcome to the forum marsover, glad you joined us.

Moved your post to the DIY forum where you will get more help.

To make a new thread, after you decided which forum to start a new thread in.

At the top you will see a sprocket that says "new Thread" (right above "Threads in this forum")

Click on that and enter the title of your thread and type away and then hit "submit"

Here is a pic of the new thread sprocket
