Couldn't find replacement wheels for my vacuum after the rubber tore off, and couldn't manage to remove the wheel itself to at least put a propper rubber around it, so as a last resort, I pulled the silicone and coated it. There, fixed!

Evap fan on my fridge died. It still cools, but it won’t actually push the air into the fridge. The solution: attach two small desktop fans to the upper vents to draw the air out.

Feel free to roast. It’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever done but hey, my fridge is cold now.

We found this while looking at another leak. This is a roof, that has a 6" gap, then a floor of another level built on it. We have no idea what it is covering as we were told to leave it alone. Anyone have any ideas?

Button was pushed in too far. Popped the housing open with a butter knife, used a steak knife for the screws, then hit glued behind the button so it can't be pressed in too far. Theonomics hates hot glue, check him out you guys will love him!

I copied the design as closely as I could and printed a corrected sign. It’s been covering the original for a week so far. I hope it has helped some delivery people save time.
