Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
So I bought a magnetic knife block on a whim and when I opened it, it needs to be screwed into the wall. The wall is tile that I don’t want to damage, I was planning on using 3m strips but it turns out the thing is plastic with a hollow back.
Suggestions? I was thinking of maybe gluing a block of wood in the back to then attach the 3M strips to?
Should I just return it? 😄
I reckon return. Ours is screwed to the wall and the magnets are quite strong, there’s a bit of force to remove a knife. Don’t know if I would trust 3M strips on tiles to hold up a bunch of knives 😅
I was gonna put on like 5 of the strips… ok ok I guess I’ll return it. It was an impulse buy, I didn’t exactly think it through.
I’d say it’s fine if you were placing them on there permanently, but pulling the knives off and on repeatedly seems like it would eventually weaken them.
Yeah, I didn’t really think about how you’d be pulling on it all the time. You’ve convinced me not to do it 😆
