What are you doing today?
Working on replacing the power cord of this 1970s era Craftsman drill my father gave me. Insulation on the original cord had worn through.
I have several battery drills, but a good corded drill is always a bonus.
Hopefully successful

As a boy who's blessed with having chunky thighs, I have worn through many a gusset. Which has historically spelled the end of numerous pairs of trousers. But no more!
Check out sojo.uk if you're a chunky boy who's tired of throwing away clothes because of your epic thighs!

#sewing, #RepairNotReplace,
Now that all the pieces for the #Oililly tote are stitched together, I'm coating the edges with a blend of Angelus leather paints I whipped up.
I could have futzed around with color matching a little bit more, but I think I did a good job.
1) Ok, for @scoutandt.bsky.social (and others I hope), the process of making a replacement tote strap. #sewing, #RepairNotReplace.
The first step is usually the most nerve wracking and that's removing the straps without damaging the tote. This usually involves a seam ripper, x-acto knife,
Today I replaced a plug on an extension cord and removed some melted cord from a power strip (someone left it too close to a wood stove) and re-soldered the wire into place and lemme tell ya! Fixing shit instead of throwing it out feels good as hell!! #repaireconomy #repairnotreplace

Repair quotes for parts and labor were close to $700. Found a like-new drum on eBay from a dryer with electrical damage for $265 shipped. Some research on YouTube and a Time Life Fix-It-Yourself book that's as old as I am, got the drum replaced in a couple hours. #RepairNotReplace #DIY
