I don’t know, cheap-ish file cabinet from Staples kinda thickness.

I need to temporarily affix a small 16x20 piece of metal pegboard to the side of a steel cabinet. I’ll have a couple pounds max of tools and pegboard accessories. I may need to remove the entire pegboard section quickly due to a clearance issue so am trying to come up with a temporary way to...

The little screw that holds the faceplate to the electrical outlet looks broken off inside the outlet. I guess it was a plastic screw? I’d prefer to extract that screw so I can put a new faceplate on. Suggestions?

I frequently am cleaning some project at my garage and dragging my existing heavy duty garden hose off (and back onto) my manual reel is a pain. Has anybody bought a retractable garden hose reel they recommend? Everything on Amazon looks sketch. My TikTok feed is full of the Vevor ads but I know...

The unfinished attic (crawl space?) over my 24x24 garage is only wired for a single standard bulb receptacle. I've had a CFL bulb in it forever and I'm finally tired of waiting for it to warm up and throw any light, and it also doesn't throw enough light to the other end of the garage. Has...

Has anybody bully or seen any solutions for DIY shelving built into the A-frame supports over a garage? I fee like I can better utilize some space up there doing so.

I set up a small area with my various cordless power tool chargers which helped declutter things. I now want to incorporate a few additional chargers for my fishing gear - a deep cycle LiON charger, and 2 other chargers for other gear. I’m interested in seeing others charging/charging...

I'm getting a little concerned about installation. Replacing it sounds like the right thing to do, and it's cheap, but being dead of winter will probably make it even harder as the materials will be less pliable. When the time comes I will use some silicone spray to help it slide into the...

No, it isn't torn. It is finished. I don't remember if it fully covered the bottom when it was new or if it perhaps shrunk. I did see somewhere that some of these can shrink.

Thanks! I was wondering about that exact thing as I think my current seal is cushioned for a more gentle closure

What kind of adjustment are you talking about? Loosening it so I can get a better angle of entry to slide it on?

Do either of you recognize the type of seal that is needed? Seems like there are different styles to fit different doors.

This area is where I keep a lot of my fishing stuff in my garage. These are relatively inexpensive drawer solutions from big box stores. Each drawer holds a particular type of gear (one drawer holds spools of fishing line, another holds various reels, another for cold weather gear, etc. and the...

I guess I never noticed this before but my 2-car detached garage door seal has like a 10" gap at one end. The other end is more or less flush so either I don't understand these seals or the door company installed too short of a seal. The only reason this is bothering me is that I get a few mice...

Update. Put out 4 traps. First morning I had caught 2. It's been 5 nights and haven't caught any more. Can't believe 2 of them left all those chewed up acorns and droppings.
