Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

I fixed 2 of my 8 tracks earlier :)

1) THE REAL DONOVAN - The tape let go on 1 end of the foil.. Luckily it was still at the edge so I just opened the cartridge and glued the foil pad to the tape...

2) JAMES TAYLORS GREATEST HITS - I put this into a different cartridge that thankfully plays fine.. (The one it was in did not)

Had issues with a coil whine from my PC for the last couple of weeks driving me nuts. Today I thought I would give it a bit of a service as it was running hot also . Upon removing peripherals I found a M.2 to USB adapter with an m.2 plugging into my front panel. Unplugged it and it appears it was the SSD whining.
The overheating was the water block loosened up over time. So an easy fix

Im glad ya got it settled easily Jay!!

Doesnt it feel good to fix stuff ourselves??

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

well fixed my own computers for over 25 years so it is just normal now hahaha it is nice when the fix costs nothing though

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

Help me please. I need a rail for a bedside cabinet. See attachment...

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

Alot more info is going to be needed because you probably need a matching pair that go on the drawers as well as the cabinet.

Consider treating yourself to a new cabinet it maybe easier and prime day starts at midnight.

He'll probably hit Vinted for a bedside cabinet, wardrobe, bunkbeds, carpet and matching curtains . . all for £27.99 :D

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

The draw itself hasn't got a rail and rather a groove that goes on the plastic rail shown in the picture attached above.

Thanks :tu:

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

Time for an upgrade, then you don't have to worry about hole spacing etc, because something won't line up?

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

Theres a pin or staple holding the current rails. When in doubt hammer it in lol

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

Bodge job then I'd dump it if it's really old and get something else.

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

I don't have the space. I'd get an oak set ideally.

At the moment all the bits in my room are of similar wood colour.

The draw still works though. It's only when taking out the draw fully the rail dips onto the floor. It works. :shrug:

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

Its plastic, cant you just use some superglue on it ?

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

SnoopZ used it all on his arse :rofl:

On a more serious note. Possibly. I don't understand there being screw holes but staples have been used :shrug:

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

Because it's an off the shelf running that the manufacturer used, they just cheaped out and stables it in, it's likely a very cheap piece of furniture which is why I said replace it with something cheap and similar.

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

It's pine I think. Cheap. Yes. I've found another piece on gumtree but I don't like the feet.

Take them off possibly but it'll then sit lower

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

Does it need to be second hand and super cheap? Imagine what the lady of the house kept in those drawers...

How about this?

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

I'd definitely go oak if that's the price range for junk

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

You said you wanted it to match your other stuff and now say you could go Oak.

This one is Oak but I prefer the other one, it looks just like my 2 and don't look like junk.

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

I meant go full oak. The drawer houses my sunglasses packaging and phone packaging. There's nothing interesting going on in there. Leaving it be might make me forget there's an issue :LOL:

Re: What have you fixed lately?
 

Just buy another runner and some screws then, jobs done but that may still cost you £5-10.

But it's plastic so just screw the broken runner in so it's back in shape, pretty simple.

My uncles grave around the grave stone. Fresh compost.

Did you get this sorted?
