Anyone with experience/advice for a community appliance repair clinic? A place where people can bring in small appliances/tools for help in diagnosis/repair. With all the sealed/non-repairable things these days, perhaps this is a dying concept? |

I've heard of "repair cafes", but don't have any experience with them. Depending on the country there may be issues with working on mains power operated items (regulations, liability, etc) ? |

we still have those back home but now most of them don't do real repair as we did before, really tracking down the root of the problem now they just say - change the whole module - change the motherboard - it's cheaper to get a new one :-// https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/repair-or-replace/msg5165907/#msg5165907 |

Do you have Men's Shed in the USA? https://mensshed.org/about-mens-sheds/mens-sheds-around-the-world/ Maybe you could repairs through something like that. |
