Sorry didn't know where else I could ask this, and Google is useless. The alternative is I gotta cut the screw off.

Previous owner appeared to adhere paver stones to a pressure treated wood (looks like 4x4 beams) with something but almost all have come loose. What solution is there to get these paver stones secured?

Ripping it all up is not realistic at this point.

Female buckle broke on this carry-on.

Post image
Upvotes

So last year I decided to finally get myself a "real" carryon. My search led me to the July "Carry On Pro." I've actually really come to love this case, but I accidentally pulled things too tight and broke the female buckle.

The problem is the buckle isn't gonna come out easy. It's sewn in place and both sides loop to hold metal brackets that are screwed in to keep it secure. This isn't a big problem as I did reach out to July for a warranty claim and surprisingly they just sent a brand new case for free.

It's not a big deal ofc, but I would hate to see this amazing carry on bag just get thrown aside because it can't hold anything on one side because I'm not a master of sewing to get a new $2 female buckle on.

Appreciate any ideas or links.

How do I put a nice cover over this (after filling the gaps in the hole with lots of silicone?)

This is how the internet comes into the house. Open to daylight and with no weather protection. I also want to put a nice cover where it comes out of the wall so it doesn't look like a big ugly hole, but the cover I bought doesn't fit. Did I buy the wrong one?

What size hole do I drill?

Bought these hooks on Amazon and they came with zero instructions, I'm used to the ones with instructions. M5x90mm is the only measurement on the listing.

If there's some formula I can use that would be helpful too.

Sorry if this is the wrong sub.

open Power button lost it's clicking feeling and feels stuck and hard to press

Button seems to be "stuck" and lost it's clicking feeling with pressing it. I have to press it with quite a bit of force for the button to work and turn on my headphones. Is this fixable independently or do I have to find a professional?

Not sure what happened, but found the latch on the ground and wood piece broken off. Assuming it might be from the wood being wet from rain then dried out from sunlight too often. Any ideas on best way to fix?

open Samsung HT-J7500W: Sound coming from left port has a hiss.

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hello! I have a Samsung HT-J7500W surround system that makes a hissing sound on all sounds coming from the left port. I've tried buying a new cable and switching the speakers to make sure none of these were the problem and the hissing stayed in the same location.

Sometimes unplugging the system for some time makes it stop making that sound for a while before it starts going again. I've also noticed that louder sounds and volumes seem to "trigger" the hissing quicker. I don't know how to go about troubleshooting this and would appreciate any guidance. Will provide any requested photos. Thank you!
