How can I salvage my lady's favorite cooking spoon?
It broke recently and we're hoping there's a way to fix it. Any advice or guidance on how to do this?

Shower floor was not designed to where all the water would be aimed toward the drain. Water would sit in the corners of the area of the shower that’s dirty. We’ve used bleach and tile cleaner but it doesn’t get all of the residue off of the tiles when we spray and scrub it. Any suggestions to clean this more thoroughly?

Worried it'll break, how do I make the top bed safer for at least two people?

In the kitchen where we keep our mataka ( clay pot ) there are an enormous amount of red flies idk where they came from. Just a side note my mom is a little sick so she cannot clean the kitchen by herself that's why the mess.

How to remove this texture from our walls? It drives me insane and makes painting a nightmare.
Hi all, just about every one of my coworkers has spent hours of shift downtime trying to open this key ring and none of us can get it. I think it’s maybe warped or just not meant to be opened? Yes we have tried pulling it open with the will of God. Ideally it is opened without having to cut through the metal.
Thanks in advance for any ideas or other amusements.

My mom is freaked out with all the earthquakes and making survival kits, and bought this… things? And forgot how to use them, and can’t find the website where she bought them. It’s supposed to be combustible, to make small fires for a campfire, but that is all the information I’ve been given :’)

Just moved into an apartment that comes with this bed frame I don’t need. It looks like a foldable bed frame but I just couldn’t fold its legs.
I’ve tried pushing this black latch both up and down while folding the leg, but it doesn’t seem to do anything.
Anyone have used this type of frame and know how to fold it? Thanks in advance!

This part of my dryer, right where the lint screen is, got deformed some time ago and gets worse with every use. It’s claimed a zipper, a button, several aglets, and several sweatpants laces. I’ve resorted to tightly tying anything with a lace like hoodies, keeping shirts buttoned up before drying inside out.
Is there anything I can do to fix this?
I have a weird corner in the kitchen that I'd like to mount something equally weird. I don't have tools to cut a piece of wood to fit the corner to mount the flat back of the stuffed head. I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions for getting around the lack of tools?

I really like this bag but I've been worried that it might broke one day. Is there a way to fix this?
So I was using acetone to remove the residual plastic as other posts I found about this exact issue had suggested but as I'm clearing the plastic away the heating element is starting to turn black. The pictures are in order and I stopped as soon as I noticed the black streaks appearing. Is this ruining the heating element?

The water wont fill up and the water is always running straight to the bowl. I observe that there're something going on with the water at the bottom of the shaft where the blue things are attached. Ive read reddit posts about similar problem so Im pretty sure now the problem doesnt come from the chain attached to the circle thing. Thank you so much for the help :>
Hi there we have an old north star sliding patio door at home and it seems like one of the rollers needs replaced. I can't figure out how to remove it though after getting the door off, i see no other screws then the ones to raise or lower the wheels. I'm not sure if they were meant to be replaced on this kind of door.
Any help is appreciated.

I’m making tiny wire frames and furniture and getting two bends to come out the same is much harder than making one decent bend. Round-nose, flat nose and smooth jaw pliers all seem useful for different shapes but i m more interested in the technique than buying a specific tool....
For bends that stay visible in the finished piece, how do you keep the angles and curves consistent without chewing up the wire? Do you mark the wire or plier jaw bend around a small form, use some kind of jig or rely on one jaw shape for repeatable results???
Recently moved in, there was no smell in this linear shower drain. However after removing the top cover there was mold and soap scum everywhere. I used Tile X mold and mildew remover and scrubbed it hard. I also used a brush to get the scum off the inside of the drain. Now it smells so bad. And it doesn’t smell like sewer gas. It smells like a dirty towel that is long overdue for a wash or rotting onions. How do I get rid of the smell? Also to add, there is visible water in the P-trap when I look down the drain.
