Re: All Hands Active "Repairsday Thursday" from the Ann Arbor Observer's "a2view" of August 15, 2024


 

The AHA shop was pretty busy yesterday! I saw these
repairs in progress:

a kids shoe (could have used some Shoe Goo in stock)
an electric lawnmower whose blade was not spinning
a sewing machine with some kind of lubrication issue
a circuit board where some solder pads had pulled loose
my bike, to which I'm adding a cargo rack antenna/flag mount

and I think there was even more going on than that.

I joined AHA as a member beginning of the year, still
trying to work it into my routine but it's fun to be around
that crowd. Dan, for my part I'd love to have a full set of
radio shop repair and configuration tools there; I dropped off
a spare Baofeng/Quansheng programming cable as a start.

I keep threatening to head down there on a Thursday. Do they get many people bringing in things that need to be fixed?
