solid core is generally for exterior doors. hollow core is for the interior. The wood door would be used if you are using stain or varnish for the natural wood look, but a waste of money if you are painting the door. most contractors will charge around $100 a door, maybe a little less if doing all 5 at the same time.
Doors are not that expensive, you can get pre-hung units or door blanks, You can try to repair it with Elmers or quick tite bond wood glue but you are going to end up drilling holes that are small in order to place a slat behind the hole to pull on to get a good bond with the glue. In order to do that you drill a 1/2 inch hole about one inch from the edge of the crack, use a popsicle stick and tie a string around the middle of it, slide the stick into the hole you drilled and then apply glue to the crack. Pull on the string to bring pressure from the back side of the crack to the joint you glued. Keep doing this until you get all the way around the crack. You can use new sticks each time. Wipe off the excess glue before it dries. you can then either patch the holes with a wood putty by using the same technique with the sticks or get laminating paper to cover the holes.
I think the best way to fill in a whole is with plaster and then find a paint that matches the color as close as possible. To mimic the lines in the fake wood, find a paint brush that has similar bristle structure. Good luck!
I believe this is a user settable option(went back to factory default when the battery died).The owners manual would be the place to look!(If you don't have the manual,scour the wrecking yard for a same year/model in a glovebox).You probably have to do some annoying sequence to change this option,most likely you won't figure it out by trial and error(it's usually changed by holding the lock or unlock button while putting in park while standing on your head and *******(hee-hee!) or something stupid like that.
Reverse is the big lever in front but it should be sprung so you need to hold it down to reverse; if your machine is only sewing backwards, this lever might be stuck or locked into position. Check out page 25 and 26 in the manual for specific info.
I had the same problem when I borrowed my father in law's C class 2000. I have replaced the battery, cleaned contacts inside the key, nothing. Had to get taxi home and get a spare key. My father in law has replaced it but I don't think the problem was so simple to enable to find easy exit.
If you used WD40, you should have the unit inverted so the WD40 runs down into the beater socket.Use a small piece of wood and place it against the bottom of the beater and tap lightly with a hammer while pressing the beater release button/lever, just enough to break any crusty seal that may have formed.
If this does not loosen it enough to remove, using two pieces of wood about 1"x1"x12" put them around the stem of the beater, above the beater cage and tap with a hammer while pressing the release button/lever for the beaters.
This has me a bit intrigued. Please let me know how you make out.
All the best.
