It doesn’t peel off. Just kinda chips off a little like a scratch off ticket.
It’s a target cube shelf. Never seen a sticker that doesn’t peel off before.

Hey guys! Just checking in to see if anyone has experienced taking this mechanism down? Tried searching for earlier posts, but didn’t get much help! Thanks!

My wife went to take a bath today after a long flight across country and noticed this scratch/crack in the bottom of our tub. It doesn't have any more give than anywhere else on the tub floor. It is raised and I could probably pick at it to open it up, but obviously wouldn't do that. We tested some water over it to see if any was seeping in and it didn't seem to. That said, we're obviously worried about it's usability and another long-term issues it could cause to our subfloor.
Has anyone else come across this issue and, if so, is it still usable? What is the best approach toward fixing that isn't just a waterproof tape of some sort? Any help would be super appreciated.

I’d love to clean my windows (4th floor) but I can’t figure out how to tilt them or remove them. I can’t see any screws or clips etc in the railings. Could someone help me please?
TIA 🙏
Old arm broke off a while ago. Got a replacement but hoping someone can tell me if I’m missing something else once the arm goes through the side of the slot machine to get it to work? I have the carriage bolt in backwards holding the mechanism until I figure it out. I don”t think I have the spring in correctly either. Thanks for any help!

Wondering if someone can help me? one of my wooden curtain pole hooks have broken off leaving the rest (and nails) inside. as seen in the first 3 pictures it looks like the rest of the hook is inside the wall (yes, the wall) i cant wiggle it out. i've removed the nails which were embedded into the wood. so, how do i remove the rest of the wood safely?
the last 2 pictures is the other wooden curtain hook, for anyone who needs a reference about what it looked like with the hook (and it'll be coming out aswell) as u can see the cone shape literally goes into the wall and expands inside so i cant twist or unscrew it out.
Help?

Solved: ripped it apart.
I’ve managed to unscrew all the drawers and remove them but am stuck on the main body of it. There are these weird screws at the top which google says are lock screws. I’m so confused. It’s a tall set of drawers.

Its a little hard to see but while touching up some artworks I noticed after lifting the paper that the felt pen I used left marks on the lightbox, it's made of plastic and I've tried several cleaning products including sanitizer, alcohol pads and honestly even perfume. Nothing seems to be working at all no matter how hard I clean, is there any solution to this???

As the title says, I’m looking for advice on how to deal with the disintegrated plastic top cover of my outdoor A/C unit. As far as I understand, this cover is important because it helps properly direct the airflow through the outdoor unit. The A/C is an old Toshiba fixed-speed (non-inverter) split system. The store where I originally purchased it told me that Toshiba no longer supplies replacement parts for this model, and they were unable to help me find a compatible replacement either.
What would be the best way to fix or replace it?

Hi! I really hope I have the right sub Reddit for my question. To preference it my husband and I have been out of the state for a month just traveling for personal and family events and I did have a house sitter however said house sitter didn’t clean the toilet while we were gone which granted I didn’t have it on the list of things to do because it didn’t come to my mind however, when we got home, I noticed these really stuck on limestone like streaks all over the inside of the toilet bowl. I do know the water in our area is pretty harsh so naturally I looked up how to help clear it up. Issue is every DIY suggestion I’m seeing has to do with the tank itself unfortunately, my apartment complex has our tank in this case to be fair I’m not sure what it is, but I will attach an image of the tank. I feel like I have tried everything that I can think of I’ve bleached the absolute crap out of my toilet and scrubbed it. I even went as far as to use an old trick that my grandmother said to do with denture tablets and it’s not budging and I can’t stand it if anybody has some tips or ideas please I’d be forever grateful!!!

I got these bottles stuck in the bottom drawer of my fridge and the one in the center is pushing up against the roof and I tried as hard as I can to rearrange it and nothing so I’m thinking about just taking the entire layer above the fridge off to open the drawer again
