Topic: Random Home Repair

Nothing like breaking the handle on your Microwave Oven just days before the Holidays...the plastic male stud on the bottom broke off in pieces yesterday.  How else could one have fixed this without 3D Printing!  I just designed an internal yoke to fit within the recess of the handle and epoxied the unit in place.


Also, over the years, we broke a few Pool Cue stick holders through general use...once again; Solidoodle to the rescue!  I love this thing!
