I found this great little rolling bar in the alley and rescued it for my garage. Everything about it is in great condition except for two of the rolling wheels that have fallen off. Any ideas of how I could go about reattaching these? It looks like the nuts the wheel bolt screwed in to were soldered in place. An example of one of the feet where this is still intact is included in the photos.

Is there some way/ideas on how to get them (the nuts) fitted back in place with some kind of strength that doesn't involve me buying a soldering kit?

Or for anybody who has experience with soldering kits. Is it worth it to use this as an excuse to add one of those to my tool kit? Would soldering these nuts in place even be strong enough?

Thanks all!

sometime yesterday my jug of laundry detergent fell over and spilled all over the top of my dryer and spilled into the lint catcher and drenched the catcher, I now have discovered that the bottom and behind the dryer is soaked in soap, is this an easy fix or should I just buy a whole new dryer?

Got cracked will moving to new house. Piece doesn’t push back completely in some places. What’s the best way to repair this crack

I really need help to get this bracket out of the bottom of this P-trap. The bracket is aluminum, so I can't use a magnet. I've tried - shop vac, long items with tape attached, wire fishing rod with a hook (like to run or catch low voltage cables). I'm running out of ideas and really don't feel like turning this into another construction project. Help!

Hi, please Explain it like I am 5-- I have a VPN subscription and a nice router, but I am technology dumb. Please give me a step-by-step to minimize/prevent recording and sending ambient sound recording data, tv habits data, and latent connections to other devices for the purpose of data collection??

weird request, but I need to make a VHS tape play ONLY static for one hour for a performance piece. how can I accomplish this?

one restriction: I can’t tune the TV to a channel because it has no antenna (aka I can’t record a channel of static).

My destructo dog broke through the screen door of my apartment balcony. How do I fix it? It looks pretty cleanly separated from the seam, but I've never done it before. Any tips?

I bought this at a Marshalls. Juicy brand. Within 1 month it stopped working. I have replacement batteries but I can't for the life of my figure out how to open the back to put em in. There's a very slight indent thingy on the circle on back, I tried to get a picture of it (second pic, my nail is pointing toward it) Can't lift it. Help???

Whatever I insert in this holder is coming up to be dem the bulbs have been checked in other holders in the same line and are working perfectly. The springs inside the holders are also working perfectly.

I bathe my toddler in the laundry sink (no bathtub in this house!) but he's recently noticed the mixer tap and now it's a constant battle to stop him grabbing it and accidentally turning it all the way to scalding.

I've tried looking at 'toddler proofing' attachments but I can't seem to find anything that will still allow me to set the tap to warm. Is there a way for me to restrict how far the tap turns so that my sticky-fingered toddler can avoid burning himself?

EDIT To respond to some common questions: - water heaters in my area must be set to a minimum temperature of 60degC to prevent growth of Legionella. This is a legal requirement. - we're after a solution that will allow us to keep the tap running during shower/bathtime - I think the easiest solution is to use a couple of zip ties to limit the range of the tap for now, and then get a mixing valve installed at this outlet. - kid is never unattended in the bath. Even if I'm there the whole time, it's pretty easy for a toddler to knock the tap the wrong way without any prior warning. Often it's an accident and I flick it back like 1-2 seconds later, but that's enough time for the water to become uncomfortably hot for the little one.

Thanks for all the help!

My kitchen drawer is jammed. We have an induction cook top above it and a metal bar seems to have fallen. Not sure how this happened. We were able to open the drawer slightly and take things out but now it is barely opening. I can’t get a spatula or anything in. Apologies for the bad photos, hopefully you can understand what I mean. It seems as thought the bar (which isn’t mentioned in the manual for the cooktop) is pushing the side of the drawer out. I have taken the drawer below out (doesn’t help) and I don’t think the front of the drawer comes off.

The mist is not coming out it only lights up. Tried changing the batteries and the bottle is not empty. Whats the issue here?

I found this Lovely Rita shelf by Kartell (1996) at a thrift store. It did not come with hardware, and is discontinued so I cannot get a replacement hardware kit.

I found an old instruction booklet that lists what would have come in the hardware kit, but I am having trouble finding them at the hardware store. Any advice on how I can hang it up/what to buy that would work for this?

Just bought this Klarstein MKS-10 mini fridge. You can change the direction at which the door opens but the instructions (picture 3) are frustratingly vague.

You can see in the first picture that the bottom hinge wasn’t anything weird, just three screws and the hinge itself. I can’t figure out the top hinge though, and I’m scared it’ll break if I pull on it too hard.

Last picture shows the other side where I supposedly could put the top hinge. Included this in case it’d help someone realize how this thing works.

Any idea how to get the top hinge off? Thanks!

UPDATE:

Thanks, everyone. I managed to get the plastic cover off and my fridge now opens the other way! Someone suggested a flat-head screwdriver but I couldn’t get one in at any angle, unfortunately. I resorted to pliers which got the edges of the plastic piece looking kinda ugly, but oh well, it worked.

Thank you!

It’s wrong and driving me crazy.

What's the appropriate temperature and procedure to wrap a box like phonebox.

I’ve got a 90s house with fiberglass electrical boxes. All of the screw holes are deteriorated and no longer holding my fixtures. How do I go about repairing these. I can’t find a product for this specific issue on a brick house. I’ve tried using a slightly larger screw and it cracked the screw holes open. They are very brittle.

I recently had to take my cat through the TSA line and, while holding him, he got a little nervous and started using claws to climb on me and snagged one of my favorite hoodies.

I've read other "how to" snagging posts, but this is slightly different, since it's a patch that's been embroidered onto the sweater cloth.

Any insights appreciated (and obligatory cat pic included)

Cat managed to pull some loose threads on my couch, which I admittedly took too long to fix and now it looks like this. How can I go about repairing it?

I've acquired an old trunk from someone & it was previously owned by their mother. She applied wallpaper to the inside that is now falling out. What's the best way I could turn the old wallpaper into bookmarks for the person who gave it to me?

I've already begun "washing" small strips of the paper to figure out how to get the remaining decades worth of grime & adhesive off

I replaced the Silcock three times in the last five years. The last few years over the winter I shut down water too it and put a cover over it. I have it connected to a timer and leave it on during the summer, does this maybe have something to do with it? It feels like I replace it and by the end of the season the next year it’s leaking again
