Maker Movement / Mending Things

Having finally received my E&T and read the section on repairing consumer items I wondered how many people here  actually mend/make things?

To start thing off I have attached a couple of pictures of recent repairs I have made. Did it make sense to make these repairs? I think so.

  • Part 2 of this story is that not only did this give me the chance to learn enough luthiery such that I can now set up my own instruments without expensive mistakes, but it also meant I could help the secondary school my children had attended who found themselves with no budget and a room full of broken instruments - between myself and the head of music we got over 15 guitars back into service.


    I'd heartily recommend having a go...


    Cheers, Andy
