Any idea how to help get the handle off?

I’ve been trying to get this nozzle off to replace leaky cartridges at a clients house. The screw has been pulled out but nothing I do is getting the nozzles to come off. I’m assuming corrosion has locked them on there. I’ve tried heat, WD40, straight strength and they’re not budging. I’ve pulled so hard on them that the counter top was starting to lift up. Is there something I’m missing or do they just need to replace the whole faucet to stop the leaking if these won’t come off?

Recommendations for a 5ft Truck Bed Topper

Hey all, the business is growing a little and with that, so are my things. On top of more stuff, I’m moving to a place that has not a lot of available storage. I’m thinking about getting a truck bed topped to organize and store stuff. I do mostly smaller jobs at the moment and don’t have much for larger tools such as table saws and things of that size. I mostly have hand tools, general power tools, painting supplies, chemicals/cleaners, and general hardware to store.

I need the topper to be pretty secure as a live in a major city. I’m not necessarily in a bad area or anything but if people see stuff in your car, there is a chance you could get broken into. Basically, I need solid security but not like top level security.

What does everyone here use for toppers to help keep things organized and secure? Any recommended brands or specific things I should look for with one? Other ideas?

Thanks for the help!

Hey everybody! My name is Zach and I moved to Philly about six months ago. I am working on starting up my own handyperson and odd job business and I am taking new clients. I am fully insured and registered as an HIC in PA. I am focused mostly on lighter jobs at the moment with the main jobs I perform listed above. I am open to all kinds of different jobs if it fits my skill set though. Larger jobs or full remodels of bathrooms, kitchens, etc are not what I am looking to get into currently as I am just one person and I also work another job currently.

A bit about me: I am queer and looking to provide services to everyone but with a focus on the queer community as I think it’s important to feel safe when having people come into your home. I would also like to help elderly or disabled people that may need a bit of help around their home. I am kind, trustworthy, honest, and a hard worker. I also strongly believe in economic justice and will provide a sliding pay scale on job quotes to help promote that.

A bit about my credentials: I have always been handy and prefer to work on my car or house myself if I can. I owned a home for a few years and always did any work on the home that I could, including a full bathroom remodel amongst other things. I also spent six months this past summer working for a historic preservation nonprofit that does construction of buildings on public lands so I have plenty of experience with tools. I currently get contracted on projects with them still from time to time as well.

I am looking to provide more affordable options for people who may need help so with that, my trip minimum starts at $80 and goes up from there depending on the job and the financial needs of my clients. I can accept cash, Venmo, PayPal, Credit, Debit, or ACH for payment.

If you have any questions for me, feel free to reach out here or through the contact info above! Thanks for reading and I hope that I get to help some of you out!
