In our throwaway culture, repairing something is a radical act. A loose chair leg, a frayed cord, a wobbly drawer — these are all chances to extend the life of an object and keep it out of the landfill.
Most everyday fixes require minimal tools: a screwdriver set, pliers, wood glue, and a roll of electrical tape. The real skill is in diagnosis — finding the source of the problem before jumping to solutions.
Repairing not only saves money but also deepens your connection to the things you own. Every fix becomes part of the object’s history, a story you can tell. Makers don’t just create new things — they keep old things alive.
