New Toy Repair Blog - DIY Toy Repair Shed

Hi,

I've been publishing 'Working' DIY Toy Repairs, Fixes and Modification Youtube videos for some years, but realised that having them scattered in different Blogs with

fixed1t

at the start of the title reduced Blog traffic and views. Therefore, I've created the Blog:

 DIY Toy Repair Shed


The use of the shed analogy is that a lot of happy men (and some women) who have practical hobbies have sheds, rooms or studios they do their creative, practical and repair work in, and there is a degree of light hearted camaraderie between us 'shed people' and much mockery from those not experiencing the joy, relaxation, cursing and happiness that comes from practical work. ;-)

If you have previous Bookmarks to my toy repairs and fixes please delete them as they will no longer work and update your bookmarks to the blog link in this page above.

I am also taking the opportunity to embed links in some of my youtube videos, as a purple banner note in the top right hand corner, to take you to a playlists of my other associated Toy Repair fixed1t, videos so you won't have to search around for the next videos.

If you have a few moments it would be great if you could try it out by selecting the video below and let me know if this works, by leaving a note on this post, thanks.



I've also decided this blog shouldn't only be about my fixed1t fixes I've already created, but should be an active 'shed' for fixers to chat, to post repair items, pictures and stories.  For others who have a problem they'd like me or one of my 'shed' colleagues to investigate and try and suggest a fix for, just post a question on this Blog and I and anyone playing in the shed could try and take a look, if we solve it I'll post the solution.

This shed will only work effectively as a kind of club house with your input, please come along and play.

 Thanks for your continued support.



 Malcolm (aka fixed1t)
