comment How can I open a desk drawer that is jammed closed by the stuff inside?
Shake it any or all of those ways. You don't have to see what it is holding it closed to be able to shift it around.

comment Why won't my shower's temperature handle let the water get hot enough?
I'm not sure, but I suspect it doesn't apply to sinks because the risk of major injury is significantly less. You might burn your hands, but you can quickly get them out of the water. In the tub or shower, your entire body is exposed and it is more difficult to get out, especially for small children.

I'm assuming you want something inside the shower or bathtub. Here a few different options: - Zenith Bathtub and Shower Pole Caddy - 3M Command Large Shower Caddy with Water-Resistant Strips - Zenith Over-the-Shower Door Caddy

Great answer! I haven't had time to run through your entire list yet, but I can't imagine a more comprehensive list.

comment Troubleshooting a circular saw that quit working
I can turn the motor by hand. It's a Skil Saw...at least 10 years old, so it's not worth putting much money into it.
