    Repair LED strip under awning?

    Wolfpup BHS 16’ The LED strip is sewed into the vinyl swing fabric so there’s no way to reattach. I thought of using large rivets but that didn’t work. Almost need a fender washer type rivet to ensure it doesn’t rip through the vinyl. Any ideas? Image https://imgur.com/a/DnrYb7e

    A section of our theater seats is delaminating (for lack of a better description) It’s not holes, just the top layer is wearing off. I tried some auto touch up paint and that didn’t work at all. It’s where my head rests, so possibly grease from my head or hair has dissolved the finish...

    Electric Jack Repair

    I was raising my RAM brand electric jack and raised it all the way up. Now it won’t retract, motor runs but the base now just spins. Entire rod with base plate spins now. Maybe jumped a thread? I can’t hold it manually since base plate now spins at heavy torque.
