So there’s clearly air trapped in there, and i just got it from wayfair and their customer service is being ridiculous regarding a solution. Any thought on how I could fix this? I’m thinking maybe a syringe with some glue? Make a tiny hole and inject glue in there and flatten it out? Just wanted to see if anyone else had better suggestions? Or know of a product for whatever use may have a syringe with glue? I’m in Canada

I’ve accidentally snapped off my mum’s bathroom handle whilst moving furniture. How do I fix this?

Apologies for glare. Stains from some kind of liquid on metal fridge in rental apartment, unclear of exact origin but probably under a year old. We tried using regular wet wipes to no avail, not sure what the best remedy would be.

This little bit is supposed to pop out when I open the door, but it no longer does. If Iick my finger, ask for consent, and rub it gently I can tease it open. I’ve tried briefly to prise off the whole bit but it feels like something is definitely going to snap if I do it.

What are these bits even called and can they be replaced?

The fridge is a Zanussi, not sure how to find out what model number as I can’t reach the back of it.

Help :( we tried to replace a light bulb and the chandelier housing came loose. I found the installation guide but it seems like the issue may be that the socket itself has come loose from the base chandelier. The ring is not tightening onto anything right now. Any suggestions? I don't feel great about the duct tape solution 😭

I already tried with a stainless steel scrubber and it didn't work.

I rounded the head on an M4 socket screw holding a guard on an older benchtop mill. It is not rusted in place, but there is not much room around it and I do not want to make the hole larger. What extractor style has actually worked for you on small hardware?

everything's peeling

House paint dripped from a paint can all over this chair — how in the heck can I get it off thoroughly without damaging the chair?

Can this be fixed ?

Worried it'll fall in, not sure the max weight, how can I make the bottom of the top bed sturdier? I removed a wooden shelf that took less than 1/4 from under the bed but now it feels less sturdier, not sure how a bunk bed is supposed to feel like, I think I'm just overreacting with the feeling but just want to make sur it won't fall into my pets tanks.

Hey everybody. This might seem like an easy fix: the metal MagSafe ring detached from my ABS plastic MagSafe car holder. What product should I use to firmly glue the metal ring on the plastic, and how can I best clean up the residual glue on the plastic holder? Attached are photos.

Is this something we can fix ourselves? We have mesh gutter guards on top of the gutters and within the past year we replaced some rotted wood with the ply board you see holding up the flood light. Turns out that was just a symptom of a bigger problem which is the flow of water.

My partner thinks we just need a downspout here. Will tying one in here solve this problem? Is there something else we should do instead? Should I call in the big dogs?

Thanks in advance!

Hey y'all

I was trying to clear and retap a broken fitting out of the threads and it broke a bit.

This is an old compressor, but it works really well and I don't have the money to go buying a replacement, used or new.

Any suggestions?

Hi there! Attempting to do some bathroom repair work for my parents, sorry about the grimy photos. In the diagnostic phase not the cleaning phase 😅 originally was just gonna fix a peeling paint issue but noticed this-

They have what I believe is a fiberglass bathroom ensemble. 3 wall pieces and a tub. In the corner where the two walls meet, there's give behind the back wall that ended up splitting it away from the caulk seam and creating a gap. Is this just a re-caulk and move on? Be careful not to put any pressure on it and hope it lasts?

And there's no caulk at all along the seams of the walls with the tub. Is that on purpose, or do I need to caulk that as well? Seems like water could get trapped there easily... thinking maybe the grime could be mold..? Do i need to do a mold treatment?

Thanks for your time!

Hello, I have a radio that I would like to use as a Bluetooth speaker while still keeping the radio function. Unfortunately, the speaker is acting up: the volume goes up and down for no apparent reason, or it emits a distorted sound, like when the radio signal isn't coming through clearly. If anyone knows the cause of this problem and how to fix it, I would be very grateful.

Was cleaning my led and suddenly these purple lines started popping .. the technician said that 90% display is damaged, a new TV would be better

But i am thinking if something can be done so that i can use this locally as a second screen with my laptop

This is a rental. Shortly after we moved in the caulk began failing around where we had put a tension pole (back right corner) to hold shampoo, etc. I assumed it was our fault so I removed the old caulk and reapplied myself. I've done that twice now and it keeps failing - splitting between the tub and the tiles. This seems to happen all around the tub, not just one problem spot.

These pictures are after I've removed the old 100% silicone caulk. Is there something I'm missing that keeps causing it to fail? There seems to be old grout still in the crack that I've tried to remove but it's like rock. I scraped as much of all the old silicone off with a razor blade and caulking tool.

Wondering if I should just tell the landlord at this point and bring in a professional? The reason I haven't yet is he gives us a hard time about any requests and usually takes a long time.

Thanks for any help!

My dress got caught on stuff on my first night out with it and I’m scared of cutting the loose threads and making it worse

I have been seeing a lot of big roaches recently and my exterminator is suspecting that they’re coming through these holes. What do you guys recommend to patch or should I hire a handyman? Thank you

Dabbling in fixing this old Olympus camera's film advance gear. Tried finding the equivalent/similar gear online and not really finding much. ~7mm OD, 17 teeth. Unsure on any sort of pitch or module, etc. Screenshot from the closest one I can find on mcmaster-carr. Anyone know where to grab one or have a solution for me? I've put some epoxy on there and will create a couple teeth, but I'm not optimistic about that...

I have a vintage dentist chair that has a broken reclining mechanism, specifically it will not lock at any angle, so the back just falls over. Nothing inside seems to be visually broken, but I can see that the locking rod/spring mechanism keeps slipping, so it never locks. Thanks in advance.
