This is why we do what we do - 2 much loved dolls returned to their very happy owner!

Here's what Veda had to say about the experience:
"I have just been down to the Repair Cafe in Barry to pick up my dolls. I was overwhelmed with what they had done.
They have an amazing team of people working there and would like to thank the amazing group that made my dollies look almost new. Thank you Jo, Molly and Kevin. I am one happy lady Xxxxx"

Veda sits on an orange sofa, she is holding a toy doll. Molly hands a second doll to her as Veda wipes away a tear of happiness.
A toy doll which is missing a leg, the paint work off the face entirely, an arm falling off, and hair looking very worse for wear.
A toy doll with a detached arm and messy hair, it looks well loved!

Barré deux trucs sur le tableau aujourd'hui :

  • fait une soudure propre là où y avait un connecteur foireux sur le ventilo avant de l'extrudeur de l'imprimante 3D (r'mettrai un connecteur en temps et en heure mais là j'ai pas de pince à sertir sous la main)

  • "réparé" la "space mouse" (un périphérique bourré de capteurs optiques dédié à la CAD) d'un parent : en fait j'ai juste décollé le truc antidérapant dessous pour dégager les vis et constater que le connecteur du câble USB sur la pcb était un peu lose. Du coup j'ai gagné une souris 3D parfaitement fonctionnelle.

Sérieux, ouvrez vos trucs avant de les jeter, passez au , faites valoir votre , c'est un maillon si important d'une économie circulaire efficace

today. 32 items through the door. Don't know how many were fixed, but it was most of them. Several new faces too. And it all promoted a reorg of the toolboxes this afternoon. More space now for extra tools. 😁

We had a guitar amp in today that hummed when stood flat but worked fine when at an angle. This is a photo of our musician volunteer testing the works around he found.

A great afternoon skill sharing at the yesterday. Lots of the team learned to solder, while others learned to not fear the sewing machine and how to darn.

@ai6yr Since you are the only person I know that repairs things: I have old Energizer Weather Ready flashlights that are normally plugged in, switched to the position that keeps the light completely off, but will turn on when the power goes out. On several of them the light is no longer completely off anymore in that position. I have replaced the batteries. Any guess what needs to be fixed?

@DerReparierer

Hallo, ich habe quasi aus dem Schrott eine LED-Leuchte gefischt und mal geöffnet. Scheinbar ist dort ein Widerstand, oder Kondensator (ich weiß nicht, was da so braun geworden ist) durch gebrannt. Ist es ersichtlich, was das ist? Ist ein Auslöten/Ersetzen möglich und sinnvoll oder ein kompletter Austausch des Trafos?
Mir würde auch ein einfacher, ohne Dimmfunktion reichen, da das selbe Neuteil an die 50€ kostet. Welches günstige Modell würde denn gehen?

Besten Dank

The biggest thank you to everyone who came to our January . We received £84.69 in donations!

Your donations go towards parking for our volunteers, putting volunteers through PAT testing training, consumables (plugs batteries, cables) so we have stuff on hand for your repairs, and small repayments to set up costs and upgrades to our equipment.

Every penny helps but no donation is required so don't feel you need to donate to come along.

Das erste Treffen steht vor der Tür. Wir wollen herausfinden ob und was in Hamm mit Chaos zusammen geht. Wir überlegen ein hybrides / und/oder einzurichten. Dabei suchen wir auch noch Inputs wie wir Inklusion von Anfang mit denken können.

Dazu vielleicht ein wenig recapen.

Ein Terminfindungs-Nuudle gibt's dazu gleich hier:

Is there anyone following me who knows about adjustments? I’ve cleaned, oiled & de-gunked a low-end machine (HobbyCraft 19s; made by Silver) but the top thread keeps getting knotted up round the bobbin mechanism. Any ideas?

Do you have a nearby? There may be someone there who can 'do' sewing machines, or help diagnose it.
