  • Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without a horrific piece of cheaply put together tat that's in need of fixing.
    So let's do just that, with this cheaply put together Christmas Ferris Wheel thing!
    Hope you enjoy!
    Steve
    PS. I'm not an expert in repairs at all. I do this for fun, and it may not be the best or safest way to go about repairing broken stuff. I'm pretty good at melting plastic though. Please don't copy me - I'm an idiot.

    "the wheel isn't spinning and there's no sound"
    That's probably a blessing in disguise regarding the sound.
    Merry Fixmas Steve and Dave

    Reason #3 not to update the plastic counter: You knew going in it was going it be melted. The spirit of the counter is to track when the last time you accidentally/unknowingly melted plastic.

    When you need shrink tube to be stiff, you can use the 3:1 glue lined variety.
    It's very good on cracked screw receptacles and similar applications.

    Merry Christmas Steve! Thank you for the content and giving me the confidence to try repairs in my own life. I repaired my 93 year old grandmother's beloved 1975-ish sewing machine. She was beyond happy to have her sewing machine back. She's too old to try to learn the new machines and the simple ones just don't last long (her words).

    At 12:06 you should have reset your plastic counter yesterday when "repairing" R2D2 and melting some plastic by adding a half spring to the battery compartment.
    And today counts as melted plastic too. It doesn't matter where, if your iron meets plastic the counter must be reset.

    Fibre washers are the best for packing gear shafts. You can buy little kits that come with dozens of different sizes. Also get yourself so insulation paper like we use in motor rewinding. Its handy to have around and you could have used it when you were trying to solder the speaker wire. Put it under the wire and you wont damage the plastic
