I think one of our coworkers sprayed some bleach and left it there for 3-5 mins. Now it doesn't go away.

Hi,
I bought this Mini Fridge (Cumeod, 15litres capacity) last week to use in my student appartement. Within 1 week it developed this block of ice at the back. (humidity in the room around 50%)
Is this normal? Or should I send it back?
I did not excessively open it or put warm stuff in. It also is quite far away from the wall.

We bought a jeep that had a CB radio in it. We want to replace it with a gmrs radio. The problem we’re having is using the cb antenna mount to attach the gmrs antenna. The hole in the existing mount is too small so we want to remove it and get a new mount for the gmrs antenna. We’ve removed the screws but that thing is stuck to the exterior. What’s the best way to remove it without causing any damage? Thanks

Hi! The back of our lovely vintage rocking chair has ripped. How do I reupholster it on my own? And more specifically, how do I remove the existing leather, create a pattern with new fabric, and reattach it to the frame? I can’t afford leather. Would canvas be OK? Other functional fabric ideas? Thank you!

I pulled it to turn on the light earlier and it came on but also the chain came out. I pulled with no excessive force but here we are. Now, it's bedtime and i need to put my kid to bed. I can't open up the ceiling fan right now to see if I can fix it. We really need the fan on and the light off or neither of us will be able to sleep. Have to keep the door closed and it gets stuffy FAST.
We will have a plug in fan later tonight but we don't right now.
So my question is, how can I turn the light off at the fixture so the fan stays on? I don't want to get shocked if at all possible lol
Help! 🙏

Im wanting to add a wood burning stove to this enclosed trailer and turn it in to a hunting cabin. Im wondering what the best route would be for installing it. Do you know what the best style stove jack would be? Would it be ideal to run the stove pipe out the top of the trailer or out of an already existing vent in the side of the trailer? Waterproof and something sturdy enough for highway and interstate traveling. Any and all input is appreciated.

Not sure if the plastic material is compatible or would adhere with nail polish products. I have tons of nail stuff like topcoat or regular polish.

My vehicle has this haze on all the windows, it does not feel to be oily, tacky, but feels dry to the touch.
How do I go about cleaning it the best I can? It makes for a killer sunglare.

I need to fix the D pad on my PSP and therefore take the front of the PSP off. I’ve managed to take 6 out of the seven screws off but I believe the last screw has stripped. I’ve tried shoving paper towel, a bit of rubber down the tiny hole to get more purchase on the screw but no luck. I’ve also tried to spray some polish down there to see if I can loosen it- no luck.
Any advice for how I can get this tiny screw out from this minuscule hole would be greatly appreciated?!
Thanks!

This is a TV at my in-laws, and we cannot figure out how to do the blue functions, only the regular ones.
I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but I cannot find a better place, if it is not the correct place can somebody guide me to where I should post it?
Edit: I have tried holding the button for various lengths of time, I have tried pressing the button multiple times, I have tried pressing the DVD button and then pressing the button that I want to use the blue function for, I have tried pressing the button while a DVD is playing (the main button I would like to use is the one that takes you to the title menu as the DVD is playing, so by default the DVD would have to be playing for me to even try using it), there is no physical switch to toggle between functions.
I am not at my in-laws anymore, if anybody has different suggestions than the ones I have tried feel free to let me know and I will try it next time I'm there (probably in the next month or so).
Thank you to everybody who has made suggestions thus far!

Hi all, I spilled some oil on the couch and scrubbed it out with dawn dish soap, but it damaged the fibers a bit. How do I get it to look better?

"Fellow TV owners, I’ve got a frustrating dilemma. I tried to clean my TV screen with a cloth and a bit of Windex—now I’ve got white streaks that won’t come off. Best Buy told me my warranty won’t cover cosmetic issues. Has anyone dealt with stubborn streaks like this and found a fix? I want to solve it without sending it off. Any wisdom would be greatly appreciated!"
The picture u can see where the very light streak is located

I inherited this statue from a great aunt and really love it, unfortunately during a move, it split completely in half and chipped a bit. Apparently from others I saw previously sold online, it’s a Marwal & Alexander Backer Co. Grecian Women Chalkware Statue. I can’t find any currently for sale.
The two pieces fit together perfectly and i have some of the chipped bits but they are very small (visible in a bag in pic 2) and it might be easier to try and fill the chipped sections then color match with paint?
Googles suggests for repairing adding dowels in the walls and gluing it together with epoxy but I feel like the walls are too thin and fragile to drill into to add dowels. Is epoxy enough going to be strong enough to hold all that weight or is there some other support I could add internally? Also I would love suggestions for what to use to fill the chips that would result in a similar finished texture.
The statue lived inside previously and I intend to keep it inside if that matters at all.
Thank you in advance for any advice on to how to properly repair it!

I have an elderly family member staying with us soon and I would like to install a hand rail on our front steps that will easily support an adult human's weight if needed. It looks like there was previously a hand rail here that was sawed off to be level with the concrete, but it doesn't have to be in the same exact location if that is a problem. The stairs themselves seem okay, though there is cracking on one side (pic 3) if that matters. Steps are just under 12" on the treads and about 5.5" risers, 3 stairs total (including the top landing).
Can I buy a kit for this or do I need to get something custom made? What is the best way to install it so that it is as sturdy as possible?
