Hose tap was dripping.
I used the tap (faucet) reseating tool from my local #MenzShed. No more dripping, no trip to hardware shop required. Cost $0

I am on the hunt for people who make things. Physical things. Physical things in a workshop. Or at home. Or in a studio. Or outside. But they have to be physical things. And you make them. Handmade or with machines.

I’d like to follow you and see what you make.

Please can you boost this post so that I get some reach on this post.

Many thanks.
