Building
resilient communities through conveying basic troubleshooting skills and
celebrating repair, Fixit Clinics are do-it-together hands-on fix-n-learn
community-based exploration and discovery workshops staffed by volunteer Fixit
Coaches who generously share their time, tools and expertise to consult with
you on the disassembly, troubleshooting, and repair of items.Please
bring your broken, non-functioning things — electronic gadgets, small
appliances, computers, toys, sewing machines, bicycles, fabric items, etc.–
for assessment, disassembly, and possible repair. Fixit Coaches (and helpful
neighbors) will be available for consultation on broken items: we’ll provide
workspace, specialty tools, and guidance to help you disassemble and troubleshoot
your item. Whether you fix it or not, you’ll learn more about how it was
manufactured and how it worked, ready to share your new-found confidence and
insight with your friends, neighbors, and the community at large. (Hopefully
you’ll be inspired to become a Fixit Coach yourself.)-
First-time Fixit Coaches and fixing families are always welcome; sign up at http://bit.ly/fixitcoachsignup-
Even if you can’t make it: report your broken item at http://bit.ly/brokenitemreportQuestions? Contact fixitfv1@gmail.com or (714) 839-8611
