We will help you find out how to fix whatever physical
object you want fixed. We'll help you DIY with our
instructors, or point you to a good tutorial if you wish so.
In some cases we can do home calls and fix it at your
location, other times we'll advise you to send it or bring
it in, and
we'll fix it here.
This is not for emergencies, does not replace car garage
service, house repairs, the dentist or the plumber. But
we
will fix your bicycle pedal, that old molecule toy, and
your
broken clarinet. We fix old laptops and vacuum cleaners,
we fix broken parts from old cars, we clean and fix torn
old books, and old batteries that lost their power.
We fix old electric appliances and old cars as well.
You get warranty the same as buying a new part, and it
costs about the same.
Good for people who dislike the throwaway culture and
for
companies targeting that market.

Can you even dye my eyes to match my gown? |

The appropriate tagline shows itself as I read, "Romantic, but doomed to fail." |

[+] all the same, since I remember several occasions on which I would have rather maintained most of the material which comprised some certain thing, and simply repaired the inoperable parts. |

Howabout broken governments? |

Ah; now there, I think, is the tricky part. Is magic involved? |

Well I'm hooked. We could take this puppy pan-global, and folks would find the tinker-bill very accommodating. Why... if we launch this thing it will never, never land. |

[2 fries shy of a happy meal]: nicely done! |

Sounds a bit like a hackerspace to me. |

In the '90s we salvaged an old toaster, likely Kenmore or GE circa the 1950s, and it was a wonderful toast launcher. The dog and the toddler would anxiously await the 'pop', and scramble to catch the toast. The dog was always a gracious loser, and would also share with the toddler if he won. The leg fell off (the toaster, not the toddler, or the dog); we took it to the fix-it shop, but then the shop closed suddenly, and the toaster was lost forever. |

If your shop had been available, that never would've happened...right? |
