Think half term won over the rugby today. Very busy at the repair cafe.
* A cricut that seemed to just work.
* A toster that they'd brought a new element for.
* A TV that they'd brought a replacement cap for but unfortunately it still didn't work.
* A set of fairy lights needed the wires splicing back in.
* another set of fairy lights that snapped right at the plug not leaving enough to solder to.
* a hoover with broken Cable Retractor, spring had snapped.
* a laptop with a column of keys that didn't work. Opened the back disconnected the battery and keyboard, plugged it back in and amazingly it worked.
* something I'm sure I've forgotten... I really need to learn to make notes while I'm working.
Also tried out a new tool bag, using an old sewing machine bag my wife acquired from someone cleaning out their craft cupboard. It works pretty well. Nice compartment on top to hold a lot of common tools.

That is a nice set up. looks good too.
@Maker_of_Things @emily_s very smart! I am repair cafe'ing tomorrow and my clobber is flung in a stanley tool rucksack in a very disorderly fashion! You look way more organised!
@concretedog @Maker_of_Things that top part is. The main compartment is just a big space, all bundled in together.

Won't be long before you end up with this much! 🤣
