Best impromptu fixes of 2013

Our shooter wasn't elevating to the right angle when we were prepping our bot for a bedford district match, so the programming team was called over to address the issue in the queue. I go down there and upon close inspection, i see a piece of metal that our potentiometer for shooter angle feedback was attached to is completely bent inwards. After locating a pair of clamps from our alliance partners and a little elbow grease the angle was back withing a few degrees tolerance.

What's your best impromptu fix?
