How to Fix a Loose, Wobbly Toilet Seat for Good
June 6, 2016
How many times has it happened to you…you tighten the bolts on your wobbly toilet seat. Things are good and stable for a while, and then a few weeks later, it starts sliding around again, and you have to tighten them all over again!
The solution, believe it or not, is not to replace your toilet seat, but to get a new tightening tool. This is an easy and simple fix that is much cheaper than replacing the seat.
The tool is readily available in any large home improvement store, and you can also find the tool online.
Just watch the video below, and follow the steps Leah shows you, and voila! Your toilet seat will be stable and steady for the long haul!

You are a very good teacher because you go slow enough to make sure we understand completely what we need to know. Awesome tutorial! I also liked your video on how to rewire lamps. You gave me confidence to fix things which I always want to do but sometimes didn’t know how to go about it. Good Job!
Your information is so very liberating!!! Thank you so much for sharing your know how.
I tried a router once, years ago and it humped and skipped the cut was wavy. I inquired around to hardware stores and no one had a solution, but many moons later someone suggested that the bit needed a bering to rest upon . I have Maurinenot tried it yet but feel comfortable it is the solution. I notice you have a shiny little bearingat the bottom of the bit. I see how it works. I wonder why no one had suggested my using one. Is it too obvious to users? It seems it should have been sold with the bit.
Thank you again

Hi Mauri, I have some router bits that have come with the bearing attached, but some router bits don’t have the bearing. If, by chance, you moved the router in the wrong direction (called a “climbing cut”) then you would have gotten something called “chatter”, which would explain the skipping. YOu might want to check out our video on which direction to move your router. Here is the link: https://youtu.be/P9m4aHszGNw Good luck!!
