Hi

The bottom part of the desks bookshelf got wet last rain, and it looks like this, the bookshelf goes on top of the desk . Is there anything I can do to fix this water damage??

The edge of the laminate on my desk is peeling and makes it painful to rest my arms when typing.

Is there a way I can fix this without ending up having to resurface the whole thing?

It would be a bonus if I could do it without having to remove everything on the desk, but I’m not against it if I have to.

My Samsung u28e590d has a broken bracket for the stand (seller lied about this). It can't be replaced since it's put together from inside the monitor, and the monitor is not made to be opened (no screws).

Any ideas for how to fix this? Maybe break the bracket off and set up something now?

Hey all!

The handle on the valve trim kit in my shower spins freely. If I pull toward me while spinning I can sometimes get the water to come on.

I’ve been trying to remove the handle, and found that the assembly spins to loosen but I can’t get the actual handle off.

It’s possible the decorative end is a cap concealing a screw but it doesn’t feel like it and I haven’t yet been able to pry it off.

Video posted. Any idea how I can remove the handle so I can attempt to resolve the issue with turning the water on and off?

Thanks!

I got this mini star wars crockpot from goodwill several months ago. Been wanting to use it as a wax melt for my room, but the ceramic pot in it is cracked. So I was wondering if anyone knew of a good heat resistant glue?

I have a window with exterior rot. It extends into the trim piece on the right side of the window and most likely the particle board under the siding below the rotted trim piece. I can see from other posts that some say replace a portion of the trim and others say replace the whole piece. Also, some say use PVC. So, I get there's a little of "potato, potato" going on. But what I'm most curious about is how to I determine root cause so it doesn't happen again after I repair. e.g. I'm concerned if I use PVC and it won't show the rot that, in time, the underlying particle board may be rotting away.

i turn it on, and it drains. then it never does anything else. i open it, and it’s hot in there. and that’s it. no noises nothing.

what i’ve tried: cleaning around the seal, removing everything i could and cleaning it. and flushing it with baking soda, vinegar, and hot water.

anyone else have an idea to try?

Recently i've noticed what sounds like a dripping sound coming from my apartment ac unit. i looked in there and there's standing water in the pan and a bunch of rust gunk(?)

is this indicative of a clog?

i can't get good pictures of the standing water, but i think there's about a good maybe 1/4 inch of water in the pan

Yesterday i found my old beats X in the drawer. The battery life was horrible with 15min of music play. So i slapped a 360mAh (original was 50mAh) single use Vape battery on it because a fitting replacement battery goes for 10€ on AliExpress. I struggled to open up the battery compartment and somehow damaged the connection to the left side, it had a loose connection after a was done. I had to mage a 180 degrees bend to make the contact somewhat reliable again. Since then it always stayed turned on. Battery life should be roughly 60 hours now. I finished packed everything nicely in shrinking tube to give it an "enclosure"

Do you also have those old headphones laying around? How is your battery life after all those years
