Most privacy door knobs, also known as "bed and bath" door knobs, either have a pushbutton or twisting lock mechanism on the inside Doorknob. The outside Doorknob will have a small round hole in the center that is intended to allow for emergency access. If possible, ascertain which kind of lock mechanism (push button or twisting) you are dealing with. If the outside Doorknob has a keyhole instead of a hole, you will need to proceed to the method for picking a locked entry door. You need to find a long, thin object that is small enough to fit into the hole, but sturdy enough to put pressure on the locking mechanism. Ideal choices include a small screwdriver or hex wrench, a hair pin, or a heavy-duty paperclip. You can even use a bamboo skewer from the kitchen, or a cotton swab with the fluff removed from one end. If using a hair pin or paper clip, first bend it open so you have a long, straight bit of metal. If you are having trouble finding a suitable object, get creative. Open up a ball-point pen and use the ink cartridge, or check the bottom of your purse for a toothpick. You can almost always find something that will work!

Summary: Identify the type of lock you are dealing with. Find a suitable object for picking the lock.

Taking empty cartridges to a store is the surest way to get something back aside from a sense of satisfaction. If you print and buy frequently, this is the way to go. Most office supply stores will accept spent cartridges as part of a rewards program, so you'll want to find a place that you visit frequently. Local participation may vary. Office Depot accepts ink cartridges as part of their rewards program. Staples accepts cartridges purchased from them and will provide a $2 rewards credit. Often these programs reward with discounts on more ink. Keep returning them to keep saving money!

Summary: Determine your best option. Find the right store. Keep the cycle going.

Use another pretreatment stain remover product at home if you find that the Tide to Go Pen hasn't effectively removed the stain. Do this as soon as you are able, and before you machine wash or dry clean your garment. Follow any instructions on your individual stain remover product, as they may vary in their application. Consider the type of food or drink that caused the stain when you treat it further at home. A greasy stain may warrant the use of hot water, for example, while a wine stain needs cool water. Follow the care instructions for your clothing after washing it, taking care not to apply heat from a dryer or iron until the stain is out. Hang, lay flat, or machine dry as instructed. After washing your garment, check to see if there is a remaining stain. If there is, treat it again with a stain remover and rewash. Don't put it in a dryer until the stain is out, otherwise the heat will set it in. You may want to alter the exact drying instructions on your garment's care tag if you are concerned about a stubborn stain. Hang up or place an item on a towel away from sunlight, which are gentler drying options that won't set in any existing stain with heat.

Summary: Treat the stain further if needed. Dry the garment carefully.

Set a chalk line 3.5 inches (8.9cm) from each side edge. Measure between these lines to make sure it's 113 inches (290cm) apart; take measurements at different points to see if the lines are parallel all along the platform. Place the 2 113in (290cm) boards at the top and bottom of the wall. Add 2 6ft (1.8m) boards to each end. Space the other 4 6ft (1.8m) boards out evenly across the middle of the wall running up and down. Nail the boards into each other with size 16 penny nails. Nail into the top and bottom of the wall at each perpendicular board, adding 2-3 nails to each end for every board. Cut the plywood to fit the wall by measuring the wall and the plywood. Lay it on top of the wall, and then use size 6 penny nails to nail it into the boards below. Try to place a nail at least every 1 foot (0.30m) or so. Move this wall off the platform to work on another wall. Lay 2 192in (490cm) boards going lengthwise along the platform, one at the top and one at the bottom to form the wall. Place 1 6ft (1.8m) board on each end and space the other 8 out along the middle at an equal distance. Nail the wall together with size 16 penny nails by adding 2-3 at the top and bottom of each vertical board. Wait to cut and nail in the plywood siding for this wall. Do this step twice to build a wall for each side. Before building the front wall, you need to know how big of a space you need to leave in the front wall for a door. Measure the height and width of the door using a tape measure. Create the frame out of your 2 by 4in (5.1 by 10.2cm) boards. Cut 2 boards that go the height of the door and 1 that is the width of the door plus the width of the other 2 boards. Place the 2 longer boards parallel to each on the floor on their edges and the shorter board perpendicular at the top on its edge. Spread the 2 longer boards out so they are at either end of the shorter board, then nail them into place with size 16 penny nails to form the frame. Lay out 2 113in (290cm) boards at the top and bottom. Lay down the door frame you built where you want the door to go. Space out 3-4 12ft (3.7m) on either side of the door frame, placing one each directly on either side of the door. Cut a board to fit on top of the door frame going horizontally between the 2 vertical boards. Then, cut a board to go from the top of that board up to the top board of the wall frame. Nail everything together in the frame with size 16 penny nails. Secure the long board to the top and bottom boards and the door frame to the vertical boards. You may need to go in at an angle for the vertical board above the door. Cut plywood siding to fit over everything but the door frame and nail it into place with size 6 penny nails. Lay out the boards you made for the triangular roof brace. Nail the boards into place with size 16 penny nails. Remember, you need to make 2 triangles, one for each side. Place the longest edge along the top of the wall with the right angle at the front. This side will meet the tall wall at the front of the shed. Use size 16 penny nails to attach the piece to the top of the wall. Cut plywood siding to fit the walls and nail it into place.
Summary: Mark the platform to use as a guide for the back wall. Lay the boards out for the back wall and nail them to each other. Add plywood siding to the wall. Repeat the process for the side walls. Measure the door you plan to use for the front. Make a frame for the door. Build the front wall. Make triangular pieces for the side walls to brace the roof. Nail these triangles into the top of the side walls.
