WHAT IS FIXIT CLINIC?
FIXIT Clinics are workshops where neighbors assist each other in repairing their broken durable goods. THE CLINICS ARE FREE. These gatherings are generously staffed by volunteer Fixit Coaches who share their time, tools and expertise. So bring your broken, non-functioning things -- electronic gadgets, appliances, computers, toys, sewing machines, dull knives, fabric and textile items, etc.-- for assessment, disassembly, troubleshooting and possible repair.
  • Bring your broken item with all parts necessary to recreate the symptoms (carry-in only: no oversize items)
  • Bring any parts and tools you already own that might be helpful (e.g. hand tools, sewing supplies)
  • Come ready to describe what’s wrong and what you’ve tried
  • Bring your exuberance for trying new things and sharing your knowledge with others
Fixit Coaches (aka 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 skills and insight with friends, neighbors, and the community at large. (Hopefully you’ll be inspired to become a Fixit Coach yourself.)
