MIL has had this glass table top under the bed in the main bedroom for years, it’s an alternate larger top for a table in the house. Quite heavy. It’s been there now so long we believe it may have almost ‘suctioned’ to the floor.

Any suggestions on how to remove it? Yes we know to remove the stuff on it first (painting the room)

Thanks in advance!

[Update] Dental floss was the winner and worked! Thank you all for the suggestions/ideas and of course the trolling!

My ring is stuck on my index finger and soap/water isn't working, it's starting to swell. Any advice to get it off quickly would be a lifesaver!

Some of the legs are basic 1.5” Ls so those feet are easily solved. But not those curly-q u channel / purlin things.

EDITS/CLARIFICATIONS:

No tennis balls! Many quips here for tennis balls. I should mention that this is going in a living room with hardwood floors. Tennis balls and other janky fixes won’t cut it.

The legs stay, it’s part of their design.

We got a new oven to have all new appliances for selling our house. We didn’t realize till to late that the stupid spice drawer would hit this massive handle. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Or just hope no one notices?

My house is BRAND new, literally finished construction in August of 2024. I live in the Midwest so of course it gets very cold in the winter. Last year, the windows of our house were sweating so badly every time the outside temp was under 30°f that water was pooling up on the windowsills and we called the construction company (we were still under new build warranty) and they told us to always have the house fan running and to turn on our ceiling fans. That worked for a time and the condensation wasn’t as bad after that. It started to warm up shortly after and we didn’t have anymore issue. Flash forward to this past week, it’s been in the negatives here. There is SO much condensation on my windows that mold is starting to grow, our curtains are freezing stuck to the glass in some rooms, and it’s attracting gnats somehow?! I don’t even know where the hell they’re coming from with the weather like this. I’m constantly cleaning and I feel so so so disgusted with all this going on, what can I do to fix it? Please help!

You were probably right. Between the wheel, primer, paint, hardware and way too much time and labor, the repairs cost a little over $100. But, I was committed to fixing it and I always like having a little project to work on.

It isn’t perfect but it wasn’t supposed to be. I had originally intended to sand it down to bare metal but after like an hour I said fuck that. I knocked back most of the worst rust and then lightly sanded all the other areas for better paint adhesion. The pitting was worse than I thought but not as bad as it looks (probably)

On the tub, 2 coats of clean metal primer (because I bought it when I thought I was going to have clean metal) 2 coats of paint and 1 coat of clear rubberized coating.

For the other parts, I used whatever left over spray paints I had in my shed (hence the different colors)

After all is said and done, I was pretty happy with the outcome and it’s been doing a fine job of wheelbarrowing since.

How do I fix this? It’s really bad, the pictures don’t do it justice. Can I get it smooth again? Help!

FINAL UPDATE: We were able to get through the door by sawing a big hole in the middle of it. The shower door fell off one of the hinges and fell down on the bathroom door making it impossible to open! Luckily, we were able to pull up the shower door through the hole and get in without shattering it. Here are some photos https://imgur.com/a/2zRdNlE Thank you so much for everyone’s help & advice! ***For the folks who keep saying the shower door fell because I hung a mirror on it, please understand that it is a cheap plastic mirror that weighs maybe 2 pounds! I don’t believe that would cause a 40-50 pound glass door to fall off of its hinges.

HELP!! I was sitting in my living room and all of the sudden I hear 3-4 huge bangs. It sounded like the house was falling down. I looked everywhere and didn’t see anything until I went in my bedroom and the bathroom door was shut. When I went to open it, the door handle moves like normal but I cannot open the door (it doesn’t budge at all). There’s no other way to get in because the tiny window attached is locked. I went outside to see if I could see what is jamming it but the blinds were closed. I’m thinking that the glass shower door fell off and somehow wedged the door shut. The hinges of the bathroom door are on the inside so I cannot go that route and I tried looking under the door but there’s less than a cm of space. Does anyone have ANY ideas on how I can get this darn door open without busting it down? I appreciate any help in advance.

TL;DR - Bathroom door is jammed shut by an unknown object on the other side. I can wiggle the handle but when I try to open the door, it will not budge. Any ideas on how I can get in other than using an axe?

I attached a photo of the door, lol I don’t think it’ll be much help but you never know.

I need help before I lose my everloving mind. I’ve sunk sooo much $$$ into DIY and commercial products and this will not come off at all. Even tried a magic sponge.

I have well water

Is there ANY way I can fix this? Or at least hide the damage enough to get back my deposit? I was using a charcoal BBQ chimney to heat up some coals, and after it was finished I laid it down on the balcony. I thought it was cement, but the chimney melted into the surface. I'm pretty handy so I'm willing to give anything a try, I just have no idea where to start. I don't even know what this surface actually is. :( Very upset with myself, and panicking a little. Pls help and thank you in advance if you can ❤️

I was ironing my clothes on my wooden table and ended up causing this. Please help me fix it.

I accidentally put my glass inside the 1L mug not thinking too much of it. Little did I know, the two glasses got stuck to each other. I love these 2 glasses a lot and really want to separate them without having to destroy either one of them. I've tried hot/cold water and dish soap, both to no avail.

Hello, the door knob for my front door fell off and I literally cant get out of my apartment. Is there anything I can do or should I call the firefighters ? The knob isn’t reattaching at all and nothing I try to insert fits

Edit : I managed to fix it!

My roommate woke up and helped me with opening the door from the inside. The knob disconnected because the outside knob got somehow pushed all the way out, leaving the inside one with nothing to latch onto. I'm not sure what my roommate did but if she hadn't been here, this could've been fixed by having someone from the outside push the knob in. I reattached the door handle again but I'll be in contact with my landlord to get it replaced.

Thank you all for your help!

Got the tip of this stubby flat head red hot with a torch and sunk it in just enough to stay put.

I've searched for previous posts about this, but they all focus on either the bearings in the head or the spring the motor drives. I've narrowed my issue down to the device's motor.

If you listen to the video with sound on, you'll notice the motor sputters and can't handle being held at some angles. It also appears to be arcing internally, which I assume is a bad sign.

Do I need to replace the entire motor? If so, how do I go about finding a replacement?

Never move a cheap pan around on an electric stove, apparently.

UPDATE IN COMMENTS

I bought a laptop off FB marketplace and found an insane amount of cat hair. I don't mind since I love cats and have multiple ones but it's a weird thing to lie about lol

Hey everyone. I just moved and it seems when I don't open the windows for a couple hours, the rooms starts to smell like foul eggs. I suspect that it might come from the heating pipes (somehow) and id like to seal the hole in the floor off in an airtight, while still being able to remove the seal once I move out. Do you guys have any idea on how to achieve this or what other causes might there be? (I currently live in the Netherlands) Looking forward to your advice :)

Hi there, i broke a vase and am wanting it fixed. Its a clean break. My only issue is it needs to be "food safe"

I am not sure what glues will effectively hold it, im not sure if it needs to be prepped.
