DIY
Recently my mop gave way. It broke just at the neck of the mop. Some of us might just throw it away but I didn't. I just put it there on the pail till this morning. I had got a new wooden stick from my shop. I even borrowed the spanner from my shop.
So I broke it and started digging the remains with my screwdriver.
Then I just screwed the new wooden stick into the hole of the neck.
Voila! It's new again!
Hello Wenn,

DeleteGood morning Wenn!!
ReplyDeleteWow! Either that mop is fragile or you push it too hard. Lol.
DeleteYou are indeed very handy woman. Salute you!

DeleteHandywoman in the house!! I surely will throw that away cos I am not a handy woman in the house.. :) Will surely get a new one cos I don't think there is a stick around the house too... Happy Mopping, Wenn... I still have a lot to do in the house.. never seems to end..

Deletewow, you must have been working hard with that mop on the very dirty floor?? else, it would not have broken, hahahaha!! but good, you just replace the stick and didn't throw the whole thing away.. :)
ReplyDeleteyea, I squeezed the mop too hard on the pail cover..
Deleteby the way, the mop seemed so fragile..not tough at all..

ReplyDeleteBatang also can break.... Lol
haha, I suppose I put too much strength on squeezing it..
DeleteMy mom did that too, I remember the old time one was using nail, have to hammer to hit it!!!
ReplyDeletenowadays you just screw it on..
DeleteWhat a clever lady!! I often encountered the same stick problem and chose a plastic handle in the end.
ReplyDeletebut nowadays they won't last..
DeleteDefinitely a smart way to save! Thumbs up!
