inShoutout to the guy who told me to use a propane torch on a stubborn core box
You know how a lot of those old tricks feel like they're about patience more than tools? Like my grandpa would fix a dent in a car's plastic bumper with a hair dryer and a can of air duster. It's all about controlled heat and knowing when to stop. Makes you wonder what other simple fixes we've lost by always reaching for a new product instead.
