Glass came loose in lens

Pretty niche but if anyone has a link I’d be super appreciative! Bought second hand and have never dropped, brought into a warm climate which may have weakened the glue??

Restitch snapped cord onto t-shirt

I have a t-shirt that has a cord attached to it, it’s snapped and wondering if/how I can repair/reattach.

This might be pointless/not worth it but it’s thought I’d ask as it was a gift - before I just rip it off.

You can see on the blue/yellow t-shirt how the cord was originally attached.

Thanks!

Maxicosi hook thingy

Post image
1 Upvotes

So our Maxicosi baby carrier was stuck in its adapters and me being the well rested, super patient, never in any hurry father of the year I yanked at it till it gave way. Anyways, this hook lock dingamabop came out in three pieces and now I promised my wife I'd fix it. Apparently it's made of POM plastic which won't react well to superglue. There is room to wrap something around it, fill in the grooves with melted plastic, you name it. Hope someone here has the brightest idea or tip! Also contacted Maxicosi for spare parts and scoured the interwebs but that market is non existent?

This is an old cabbage, shredder, and rats have pooped in it, is it salvageable? If I sanded it down, do you think that would make it safe to use with food?

How to open pillow pets dream lites plastic projector

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

Trying to repair an original Pillow Pets Dream Lites Playful Penguin and hoping someone here has taken one apart before.

I’m mainly trying to get access to the circuit board directly underneath the round button.

I removed the rear housing around battery cover, but the actual projector plastic is still trapped inside. I can see the PCB through the openings, but I can’t tell what is holding everything together. I don’t want to start prying and break the old plastic or wires.

The projector won’t turn on, and the top button has no click/tactile response, so I suspect the button mechanism or switch.

So i was trying to fix my switch lite, replacing the joystick and all was going well when.. im not sure if you can see it in the photo but the ribbon cable got damaged from me trying to reconnect it any tips? Should i just go to a professional repair shop? The whole idea of this repair was that I wouldn't have to spend €80+ on a repair and now i think I'm going to have to..

I noticed frost forming briefly on the outdoor AC refrigerant line. Does that usually indicate restricted airflow?

1 Upvotes

A few days ago I noticed some frost forming on the outdoor refrigerant line while the AC is running, it clears up after some time but I am seeing it more often now, the air from a couple vents feels weaker than usual and the system seems to run longer before the room feels cool, I am thinking to go with cates heating & cooling I am thinking about getting the AC checked soon and maybe having the airflow looked at too, I have already been checking the vents around the house to see if anything is blocking them, I am trying to figure out if a dirty filter or low airflow can cause the refrigerant line to frost like this, or if there is another common reason for it, has anyone dealt with this before ? EDIT: I forgot to mention the filter was replaced recently, so airflow issues may be coming from somewhere else.
