When my dad was dying we decided to do one last project together. So we built a small train set. He designed each part of it with a grandkid of his in mind. One loves horses so he put in mini horses. One loved westerns so he put in a little gun battle. We spent months on it. We loved doing model building together. Rc planes, trains, model planes etc etc. now that he’s dead I want to share it with my siblings and their kids. No one is interested in keeping it intact. I want to cut it into pieces and make a diorama of different sections and give it to the sections that are about each grandkid to them in a nice wood box they can see any time they want. Any suggestions on how to cut it cleanly without distorting it? Think 8x12 sections.

We're currently assembling this, and we've noticed that the LED light strip is significantly longer than what's shown in the instructions. However, the instructions don't mention trimming it and there are no marked cutting points on the strip to indicate where it would be safe to cut. Is it safe to assume we can trim it to the appropriate length, or would doing so potentially damage the strip?

This countertop ice maker is pretty new. But for some reason after only 2 days of constantly making ice, mold forms. So im assuming its inside the areas i cant reach as well. Am I doin something wrong?

How do I deep clean the innards without damaging it? Idk why it molds over so easily. I use bottled water to fill it.

Thx

so i have a bunch of photos that were in my garage,we got heavy rain and they got soaked. most are saved or they didnt get stuck together. but some of them did and are doing this now,if theres anyway to prevent this slightly while pulling them apart advice would be awesome as they are photos of my cousins. these are examples of what happend with blurred old kodiak photos in the box. these ones didnt have images but we want to atleast slightly salvage some of the actual photos if we can. thanks :)

I’m unable to post a video here for some reason, but my radiator is making a ridiculous amount of noise. The steam coming out is causing it. I have my radiator knob turned fully off because otherwise it’s about 95°. However, it’s still about 80° in here. My question is, is there anything I can do to make it less hot and also why is there’s so much steam coming out and it’s so noisy? It wasn’t like this in previous years and I’ve lived here for a while.

I have looked at previous posts similar to this and the consensus seemed to be to go to photoshop requests, but I wanted to ask anyway just in case.

This is a high-res digital painting done by somebody on photo paper but whoever put it in the frame used double-sided tape on the back, and there is something sticky on the front that has already caused a small rip.

Is there any Safeway to remove this from the glass? My thought was to submerge in room temperature water for a bit and try to slowly separate. Any advice would be deeply appreciated.

Also, if anyone knows who this artist is, that would be cool.

Throwaway because Im too embarrassed to have this on main.

I have a pair of platform mary janes that I wear to work. I wore just the shoes without any kind of socks or hosery for like, a year, and my shoes smell BAD. I recently found stockings that work like socks, but everytime I take my shoes off they still stink and there is a layer of grime adhered to the bottom of my socks on the heal and ball of my foot.

Does anyone have any advice to clean these? I cant pull the sole of the shoe out.

Hi guys,

I recently bought this jacket from Stradivarius. It has a waxed effect finish with dark green and olive tones that change depending on the lighting.

After washing it, I noticed that one are became noticeably lighter, as if I had lost some of its color or finish. The care instructions say it’s machine washable at 30 degrees, which I had did.

I wanted to restore it, but I’m not sure how to do it without damaging the fabric further.

Has anyone dealt with something similar? Is there any way to restore the original color or waxed effect?

Thanks in advance!!

Despite living in a literal basement my apartment is blazing hot and we have to have all the windows open 😭 is there a way to adjust the amount of heat coming out of the radiators? They're also on my ceiling of that changes anything

I can't figure it out, the water pressure is off, the filter is the right size, but I can't get all the way in. We just hooked up the water so this is the first time installing the filter.

The cap just spins along with the bottom part. It’s not “tight” enough on the bottle to separate so we can’t get it open. Any recommendations?

Solved! Thanks all for your recommendations

I got this desk second hand recently and I really love it but I can't get it up the stairs as it is (my stairs have a narrow corner near the top) so I have to separate the top shelf part from the rest but I have no clue what I'm doing. I've tried googling and it says I need to point the cam locks towards the panel of wood im trying to disconnect it from but I've tried multiple times and tried doing it on like every screw I can but i can't get it to work, so i think i must be doing something wrong. I really need help so any advice would be appreciated 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I ordered a set of the Shogun series books from Amazon a long time ago and stupidly let them sit in the box and now they are all warped like this, is there any way I can make them straight again?

My right AirPod pro 2 fell in the siphon while I was washing my face. I tried every ustensile in the kitchen but I’m not able to.

Any advice please ?

It was a gift so I really care about it and my coverage expired too.
I’m not eligible to get apple care + either.

It's a bed frame...idk what kind but id like to know how to put it together if anyone knows! Please and Thank you!

so i left an incense stick on the corner of my bathtub like an idiot, and only realised when it was too late and the ash had dropped into the bathtub, melted it and now it looks like the picture.

is this fixable? what can i do to smoothen it out?

Hi everybody , sorry if this isn’t the right sub for this.
Recently on a night out my heel broke. We purchased super glue and stuck it back together, but i accidentally got some glue on my jacket sleeve. It’s a faux leather jacket with wool sleeves (i am assuming since it was second hand) and the superglue is on both materials. Should I just accept it or is there any way to get this out or at least minimise it without damaging the jacket? I’m really hoping for the latter.
Any help is appreciated, thank you

Hello! My dog has a pain med that needs to be cut in half. The problem is, the pill is super chalky and doesn’t cut evenly. I’ve tried a knife and a pill cutter. Both leave a mess of dust and an uneven cut.

Does anyone have any other ideas or luck using something else? If it helps, I get his meds filled through Costco.

Edit: okay so it was in fact the screw, however I never thought to check it because I plugged the thing in originally and NEVER PUT A SCREW IN so I have a ghost in my house. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.

How in the sam heck can I remove this? I put it in the wrong outlet last month. it has two three prong on the other side. My leverage situation is not working and I don’t want to die.
