Need help fixing chair with missing threads.

So as you can see the chair is supposed to have this threaded hole kind of set into a square hole for the bolts to attach to, this holds the backrest onto the chair.

They are M8 bolts normally, but I need to find a way to have some form of self anchoring system as there is no access to the interior of the chair for a regular bolt to work.

If I could find the threaded part that sits in the square I would do that but I have no idea what to look up.

All the self anchoring bolts I’ve seen are either for concrete or drywall and will not work for this.

How do I take this apart?

I am trying to change the cartridge in my single handle Moen faucet but after I take the handle off I am faced with this plastic piece with no obvious way to remove it. I am not sure if I twist it off or pry it off to get at the cartridge underneath. I don’t want to break it. No online video I have watched shows this same piece when replacing the 1225B cartridge. Any advice appreciated.

Has anyone got any advice for a Eastpack suitcase wheel repair?

https://preview.redd.it/4303bl8ce4wg1.jpg?width=1512&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cfdc1ae9d936fc448e5110a042e2923a2e230c07

I'm just looking for some repair advice. As you can see, the wheel on our Eastpack Tranzshell has been damaged. We have reached out to Eastpack, but to be honest I am not hopeful as we got a reply from a repair company who state they won't sell me a spare wheel (it is 5 screws to replace), and I'm pretty sure it isn't covered under their 30 year warrenty, so I am expecting this repair to be expensive.

Has anyone got any experience or tips replacing the wheel on a Eastpack Tranzshell? I have looked on the usual sights for replacements, but it is hard to find any wheel which might match. Just wondering if anyone knew where I could get a replacement, or get a repair done. We are based in Edinburgh if it helps. Thanks.

Idk if this is the correct place💔

I don’t even remember how it happened but I always have trouble with these sliding mirror doors but this time it detached from the mirror and now it won’t close and don’t even ask me abt the other side cus idek how that happened either 😭 I was wondering how I can repair it myself is, is there a type of glue I need to use? Or is it possibly the tracks themselves as well as needing to reattach the edge to the mirror 💔 whenever I close the mirror the edge (the white part not attached at the bottom) will go behind the mirror and almost snap and has almost clipped my finger some days. I’m so sorry if this is like gen an easy fix I’m just not aware so please any help is wonderful! I wish to get rid of the sliding mirrors but I sadly can’t
