So one is creative and solution seeking and now proud about himself and an inspiration to others and the other one -- not, but just a thief.

Just a thief?? That’s creative, solution seeking, and ecologically conscious problem solving right there
That's a humongous oven, must be a 10+ person household.
90cm.
We have one for our 4 adult, 2 kid household. Its amazing how often it's not big enough for all sorts of things.
I think 2 X 60cm ovens make more sense in hindsight and they also dont take as long to heat up
Or its the house people designated as the holiday house, maybe! Only actually used fully a few times a year.
That's my house. We have dual ovens and use them simultaneously several times a year, mostly holidays.
My oven is so old I came across an identical one in an e-waste pile behind a store. I stole the timer knob and mechanism so I don't need to keep using it on manual anymore.
You didn't steal it, you 💫recycled💫.
*Reused, which is preferred to recycling even if the materials are 100% recyclable.
That's what I told to the store employee I encountered coming to work via the back door. He wasn't too happy but ultimately let me do it.
YOU WOULDN'T STEAL A BOSCH OVEN KNOB
DON'T TELL ME WHAT I WOULDN'T STEAL
Thats going to be a squidgy mess after a long cooking session. Hope he doesn't get plastic burns.
I've always got a spool of high temperature PLA for that, good for up to 140°C.
Channel locks, adjustable wrench, or plyers are also acceptable. Plus then ya know damned well where they are.
This is why I always buy cheap vice grips whenever I see them in a box of tools at an estate sale or something.
"Oops, I broke a handle on (thing)."
Clamps vice grips on the bit left over
"Fixed it."
Right now both of the seats in my truck just have a vice grips for the reclining lever.
I had my shower knobs as vice grips for a long while
What about the old vice grips that are now a permanent part of the stove trick?
Nothing is more permanent than a temporary fix.

I'd eyeball the measurements in Blender and laugh at my crooked knob every time I use the stove.
You're still putting too much work into this. Just heat up the metal shaft where the knob was with a torch and press any old hunk of thermo plastic onto it. Now you have janky done even more quick and cheap.
I laugh at my crooked knob all the time.
I also laugh at it.
That's at least better than his wife. She laughs and points.
The two types of players
Edit: Here have a funny youtube video I reminded myself of https://youtu.be/CJpsL3XbD-M
When an artificer and a rouge are faced with the same problem.
Edit: my english sucks
DM: Roll a D20 for a stealth check.
Rouge: I bat my eyelashes.
DM: Huh, I misread your character sheet. I'll allow it.

I simply pulled the knob off in the store & shoved the rest of the stove up my butt, later at home I printed the missing knob. It's a simple life-hack, basically everyone is doing it.
