Esterilla eléctrica reparada!!! 🔥

Wishing those who celebrate a Merry Christmas🎄 Tonight if you are up late assembling something 🔧, take solace in the fact that it will make you more prepared to fix it when the time comes 😂 🙌

@MidlandsMovies Yes we have a couple! Best to have a chat with one of the team on FB

@LeicesterHack ?

Anyone got a 3-d printer? Or know where I can get something printed in the Midlands? I need a specific lens cap and have the downloadable printing file so an "easy" job I'm assuming? Any help much appreciated

@Viss Hi you're more than welcome to just drop in for a visit :)

@danablankenhorn Innovation is SMEs inventing novel means of repairing electronics. ANTI innovation is Apple spending lavishly to kill 20 state-level right to repair bills in a single year, thus banning the practice.

At Melbourne Repair Cafe in #Yarraville today with my 3yo Breville toaster which does not hold toast down, keeps popping it up. And guess what is in queue in front? Another Breville toaster (1 yo). Is this a known problem, @BrevilleAus? Not good enough! #RightToRepair
