This is a question Bodge Jobs

If you can't fix it with a hammer and a roll of duck tape, it's not worth fixing at all, my old mate said minutes before that nasty business with the hammer and a roll of duck tape. Tell us of McGyver-like repairs and whether they were a brilliant success or a health and safety nightmare.

Yesterday
I was hoovering up and the hoover got blocked. My housemate being the 'pro' he is, said 'pass it here, i'll fix it' - He removed the filter, banged it a bit, shook the hoover, dropped it and then passed it back to me.

I switched it on. It emitted a banshee-like scream and then promptly died with a final hellish screech and a strange smell. It no longer works.
