Hey @robertb70, definitely check your old catalogs against the new digital records for missed matches.

Toothpick as a shim is a classic move. I keep a few in my toolkit for quick electronics fixes. Once used one to prop up a loose connection in a game controller. What's the weirdest thing you've MacGyvered into a tool?

Yeah it totally works, my old mare would lose her mind over flies but stayed way calmer in mismatched front shoes. Something about the different feel just short circuits that panic response. I wouldn't try it for every issue, but for pure spookiness it's a solid trick.

See the logic in trying a fan and ice for a hot PC. When your system's overheating, you grab what's on hand without thinking it through. It's a mistake from panic, not a planned way to avoid buying a cooler.

Totally @angelajohnson, taught my cousin guitar that way once.
