If you don’t have the time or money to have something fixed by a professional, I suggest you jury rig it yourself. After all, it worked like a charm for these MacGyvers.
One good thing about being a handy person is you can fix just about anything by doing it yourself. Sometimes you end up jury-rigging something just to get you by until you can afford to replace it but what if it gets the job done?
The best part is you fixed it yourself but honestly, not everyone should be engineering their own workarounds. Some of these projects are so bizarre that I can’t tell if they’ve failed or if they’re actually brilliant. You be the judge.
