Whilst all of you plastic DIY practitioners meekly trudge through the doors of the local Homebase every Sunday morning to gather material for your latest self-made monstrosity, Nicks definition of the phrase do-it-yourself is drawn from a higher plane of intelligence. Aside from his bullish (yet effective) approach to unblocking the sink and his occasional indulgence in angry plumbing, his make-shift toilet flushing system ensures that when it comes to home improvement, Nick is the go-to guy. A complicated contraption in which a humble soda bottle plays an integral role, Nicks temporary resolution to the lofts plumbing problems are even praised by the professional that Schmidt hires in a spiteful rage. The guy fixes a waterlogged roof by drilling a hole through it for crying out loud. Talk about scrimping and saving - forget Nick Knowles, its all about Nick Miller.
