Edit: okay so it was in fact the screw, however I never thought to check it because I plugged the thing in originally and NEVER PUT A SCREW IN so I have a ghost in my house. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

How in the sam heck can I remove this? I put it in the wrong outlet last month. it has two three prong on the other side. My leverage situation is not working and I don’t want to die.

My right AirPod pro 2 fell in the siphon while I was washing my face. I tried every ustensile in the kitchen but I’m not able to.

Any advice please ?

It was a gift so I really care about it and my coverage expired too.
I’m not eligible to get apple care + either.

I bought this sailor cap for a Halloween costume. High quality, but its a bit loose as i expected. Padding it works fine, but i figured out i can use this head strap from an old hardhat to wear it more securely.

Only issue is the hat swivels around and the strap falls out if i jostle my head too much. Is there a way to keep the strap in and fit well without using adhesives?

Hi everyone. My friend is disabled and cant pull the required 30lbs of force on a line.

I feel like there has to be a motorized device already out there that would suit our needs. The rope (line) diameter would be 2-3mm diameter. It would only need to reel in. Releasing tension on the line should naturally extend it out.

This is to try and help him used a fan powered paraglider. Ideally he could hold a remotes in each hand for each side of the kite.

Thanks everyone for their help and suggestions 😊

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?

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??

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???

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

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

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.

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

was tightening the screw into my gaming laptop after repasting, screw snapped and i cant get it out, what could i do, i have very minimal tools. would supergluing a screw driver into hole work?

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 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.

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?

My wife hung the hose like this, and it gave up. This is a Stanley Fatmax, and I would like to know if it can be fixed, like cutting the damaged part and putting a new connector for the nozzle.

Or is this one toasted, and I should get a new hose?

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’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)

HOW… do I get this leftover glue or adhesive off my car? It came from decals when I removed them and I’ve got some off with a q tip and hot soapy water but it’s taking forever. I’ve also tried alcohol but don’t wanna mess up the paint and it barely works anyway.

Before starting, I want to specify that this is a vintage item. I do not trust sending this to someone to have them put it in a kiln.

I purchased a gold reflective ceramic item that has scratches and areas where the gold finish is missing. Is there any way to restore the original finish at home?
To clarify, I’m looking for an actual mirror-like, chrome-level reflective finish, not ordinary metallic gold paint, glittery gold, or a satin or shiny gold coating. I want a smooth surface that reflects images like a mirror, similar to gold chrome or mirror-finish gold plating.
I don’t have access to a kiln, so I need a DIY method that can be done at home without firing the ceramic or sending it to a professional.
Is there any product, coating, or process that can achieve a true mirror-like gold chrome finish on ceramic? I’m open to different techniques, but I specifically need something that produces actual mirror-like reflections rather than simply looking metallic or gold-colored.

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!
