    Mini split outdoor condenser rodent guard advice

    That unit looks pretty tight the mouse might have entered it from inside the wall..in any case I feel your pain but I think I would look for the entrance rather than cage the entire unit.. The chicken wire I'm familiar with is too big to stop a mouse, hardware cloth would be a good choice.

    Swim platform refinishing and anti-slip / skid

    Try a chemical stripper and then sandpaper. I wouldn't go back with varnish or the nonskid, just teak oil.

    Swim platform refinishing and anti-slip / skid

    Those almost looks like some kind of non skid tape. My last boat had a teak swim platform I just cleaned and oiled it once a year and it kept the nice warm brown color and was not slippery. No nonskid anywhere..

    Steering Wheel for Tiller Boat?

    Maybe you could rig up some cable steering, I built a small hydroplane and wire rope worked well. The throttle was easy but it didn't have a gear shift.
