A DIY fan has been praised for sharing a genius hack to find out where the metal pipes are behind the wall before you start drilling.
Jordan took to TikTok to post a video explaining the clever trick, which involved her using her Apple Watch charger.
Being in America, she suggested using the hack to find studs behind the wall, but it would be just as effective finding metal pipes and electrical work so you know where they are before you start drilling.
"Fun fact for you guys," she said.
"If you're ever in a bind and you need to find a stud but you don't have a stud finder, you can use your Apple Watch charger.
"Just put the metal side down and it's going to pick up on any metal nail heads or screw heads in the wall."

She then demonstrated, using the magnetic side of the charger and showing where it was pulled to the wall – indicating there was something metal on the other side.
People were quick to praise Jordan for her "mystery mousketool", with one writing: "Holy macaroni!"
"Genius," another added.
"I have a Samsung watch but it works the same way. I never would have thought of this," a third commented.
