Hi!! I thrifted my dream lamp a few years ago but it recently stopped working. I’m hoping to rewire it, but…… I am very much a novice. I found the correct socket, but in trying to disassemble it I realized that I don’t know how to get the cord out. It is STUCK stuck even after pulling with all my might. Any suggestions from the fixer pros on how to get the cord out, and then how to get a new cord through this curve?😅 any and all advice is appreciated, thanks!

My shower handle came off which appears to be a result of the handle’s screw breaking off inside the valve stem as seen in the photo.

I’ve searched around a bit and have seen a ton of mixed info ranging from replacing the entire valve, stem, needing to go through the wall, etc.

I’m hoping to get a bit of clarity and help with my next steps. I’m guessing I need to turn off the water, then unscrew that bolt looking thing that’s housing the stem and then from there maybe I’ll be able to replace just the stem?

Thanks in advance!

I have a R2D2 mini fridge, its a round shape with out legs. It turns on to the warm setting but wont turn on to the cold setting. When i put the switch on the cold setting it doesn't light up make a sound or do anything at all. Does anyone have any advice?

My turtle keychain broke and I’m not sure how to fix it. It looks simple: just clip the two parts together. But it looks strange that way, and neither end of the chain has a big enough gap to fit the end of the clasp on, so I feel like I’m missing something… Maybe a piece fell off? I tried looking online for a reference but none of them look right.

Are there any issues with putting this wine cooler inside of a cabinet? Also, there were two legs on it that we took off, so the bottom is against the cabinet bottom.

Hey everyone,

I recently bought a condo and noticed that my waterfall countertop tends to pop out on one side. I can push it back into place, but after a few days, it shifts again.

I also see that the caulk on one side has broken, which makes me think it was mainly held in place by that. Now I’m wondering if I should call a countertop repair company (is that even a thing ?!) or if there’s a better way to fix this myself.

Everything looks mostly flush on the different sides (see photos), except maybe above the dishwasher. But when I slide a sheet of paper in that gap, it hits something after 2inchs, so at least the counter isn’t completely unsupported.

Any advice would be really appreciated

I would like to fix this hose. Is it possible to detach the hose from the silver thingy that you screw onto the showerhead? If it is, I would like cut the ruptured part off and put the rest of the hose back in. Is this possible? How do I get the hose out of that silver screw thingy?

I wasn't sure where to put this, so I'm making my own post and putting it out on the internet. I have an Avalon A4 water dispenser and have been using it for over a year. It was working without issue until about 2 months ago the water flow started to become very slow, until it completely stopped. The water jug underneath was full, the unit was receiving power, but the switch that is engaged when the door is closed wasn't sucking the water into the internal tank.

I watched a video on how to disassemble and empty the internal tank, and when I had the unit top cover removed, I couldn't remove the internal tank lid. I realized that the water in the internal tank was frozen solid (or at least to the point that it froze the tank level in place).

I turned off the cold water setting and let it sit for the better part of a full day, which freed the tank level and allowed it to read the water level and suction water out of the water jug.

I don't have a "fix" for whatever mechanism/thermometer that is supposed to prevent the internal tank from freezing, so I try to remember to turn off the cooler switch every night, although Ive forgotten a few times to no ill effect. I just want to put this out there if anyone else has had this problem with an Avalon A4 or similar dispenser ( A4BLWTRCLR )

Just as the title states: I want to take a cabinet like this and have it suspended on my bedroom door, preferably by hooks or something similar instead of boring holes into anything. I did look into adhesive nails/screws and similar items, but they don't seem like they can reasonably handle the weight...

For full disclosure, I'd be putting a kitchen appliance or two, plus maybe some protein powder and other small items in there. I can't put them in the kitchen (live with my family of origin who said no) and don't have much of anywhere in my room for them, let alone the rest of the house. Can't add dressers or snything. This is what I have 🤷🏽‍♀️

Anyway, is something like this possible. Maybe there's something similar I can do to utilize the vertical door space. I don't know, so I'm asking you fine folks.
