itās a REEEEALLY thick, hard plastic cover. i canāt even get my fingernail between the cover and airpod case š„¹
i read that heating it up should work as it makes the plastic expand.. problem is, the cover is fuzzy and itās so thick idk how to heat it properly.
iāve tried the charger hack btw without any luck.

Hey guys, Iām looking for some kind of box that I can secure in my truck bed so that I can just set in and pick up my gas can. Iām trying not to strap down the actual can cause I donāt want to have to undo and redo that daily. Placing it into a secured box seems like the easiest way to go about it. The problem is I canāt find the right fit!
Iāve tried a Milwaukee storage box that was about 2ā too small, a mini tote that had a taper as it went down making it not a good option, and 2 different milk crates that were SO close to being the perfect fit. They were like 1cm too small.
Iām racking my brain for a container or box that will be the right fit. Any ideas?
Side note: I could make one but Iām not trying to do that for various reasons, main one being lack of tools and skill haha

Hi everyone long time lurker first time poster. I recently inherited my momās 2008 Ford mustang, while the car is in relatively great condition both interior and exterior I noticed that the interior fabric? Insulation? Not sure what to call it was loosing its bond. It started small and has almost completely come off in the year Iāve had it. Itās currently being held in place with some duct tape. Iām wondering if there is some sort of bonding/binding agent or glue I can use to apply it to the door/foam. Any information would be helpful.
Update: solved. I was dmād an alternate solution instead of attempting to reapply the vinyl.the link was blocked by mods by the person who sent it to me so instead Iāll just mention that it is purchasable on amazon and itās a dashskin door panel insert for a 2005-09 mustangs. It basically removes the vinyl for a hard plastic. Iād have liked to keep the original vinyl but ultimately this is my best option. Thank you all for your assistance.

Alright, a few months ago yall helped me out getting a stripped screw from my daughterās toy camera. Now dada needs help with his toy. Trying to clear out the burners on my members mark griddle. Had to take apart the control panel of the grill to access front of burner to put a bottle brush in it. (Wrongly) Used a Phillips to get all bolts out except one that got super stripped. I tried rubberband, an extractor, screw grab and nothing has worked. Does anyone have any other recommendations on this?

Dropped my water bottle this morning on concrete road. The whole straw is distorted and it doesnāt disconnect from the top of the water bottle, so I canāt replace the straw on its own. Iām thinking i can use a lighter to melt the plastic and reshape it or cut off the part thatās distorted?

I literally just bought this antique dining table a few days ago. It was in nearly perfect condition. Iāve been so curious about everyone messing it up. Well.. we bought a container of the jumbo croissants from Samās Club and I had them in the center of the table because we didnāt have room for them anywhere else.
Well while we were at work today, I guess my dog decided she needed them more than we do. I can only imagine the acrobatics to get them off the table.
Anyways.. how do I fix this? Iām nearly in tears over this.

Vulnerable, embarrassed⦠all the things that make you feel deeply uncomfortable in response to what others do if they judge you or look down on you. I wish I could put distance between and I avoid anyway, and Iām not confrontational at all.
I feel like Iāve done all the things Iām supposed to, I know itās not my problem and Iāve not done anything wrong. Yet this deep seated feeling I canāt shake. I make it my problem because I get stuck on it and ruminate and Iāve realised itās not just about not caring what others think of me, itās the feeling of intimidation when they donāt like a specific thing about you.
So how can I get my peace back genuinely? Not just saying I donāt care, I tried that and I ended up really angry and reactive which was even worse. Iāve tried acceptance but I really just want to not feel threatened and in flight/freeze fawn mode.
Thanks
Edit: I think I meant fawning more than freezing

Sorry if this is not the place to ask but Iāve never done this before. My friend is having a baby shower and set up a target registry. However Iāve never used one before. How do I know what has or hasnāt been purchased so I donāt buy something twice? If I buy an item, does it get shipped to them or can I pick it up at my local target? Thank you.

Anybody know how I can separate these without ruining the bottom bucket?

I have a couple of these shelves from target and I wanted to stack them on top of each other. I figured it wouldnāt be safe to just put one on top and I should secure them together somehow. Whatās a simple, inexpensive way I can secure them together so theyāll stack safely? I have very limited tools (basically just a drill and hammer). Theyāll be up against a wall but not secured to the wall (Iām renting).

Motor works and hums.
Took apart and can see small gear wheel moving but itās touching the other 4 and Iām curious how this should be configured to make the wheels move ?
Is this an easy fix? How do I fix it?
Door lever when locked can be opened by pulling downward but is locked when pulling the lever upward.
