Repair Cafe Rugby<p>So last Saturday was our second and thus last <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/RepairCafe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RepairCafe</span></a> in June. I predicted another quite session like the previous one, but everyone was very happy to point out that I got it wrong and we were almost as bust as usual.</p><p>We still get new people coming along to become volunteers and so I think that we're still pretty much getting it right. It's all about keeping people happy, isn't it? Short term by volunteering and long term but helping the environment.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/repair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repair</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/fixer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fixer</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/ReduceRepairReuseRecycle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ReduceRepairReuseRecycle</span></a></p>
Repair Cafe Rugby<p>OK, so here's the data. Kinda.We're running second in a non-existent race to do the most fixes in the UK this year.</p><p>As for the the Fixed / Partial Fix / Binned stats, I'm only monitoring our Binned rate as these are the items that have gone to landfill. Everything else has managed to stay in use one way or another and that is what counts to me.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/repaircafe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repaircafe</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/repaircafes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repaircafes</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/fixer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fixer</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/repair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repair</span></a></p>
Repair Cafe Rugby<p>Today was our second <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/RepairCafe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RepairCafe</span></a> in <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/RugbyTown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RugbyTown</span></a> in May. Things have, as expected, quietened down a little since we started opening twice a month. Enough items to keep us busy to the end of the session, but not so busy that we have to turn people away. I think that two people did leave without getting their items repaired, but I think that was because they turned up too near to the end of the session. New <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/repairers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repairers</span></a> joined today too.</p><p>I shall confess that I have recently built an adjustable bench top power supply with an old laptop charger and some bits off eBay and I took it with me today to do some real world testing. It passed with flying colours so I'm quite proud of that. (AKA no one died and nothing exploded.)</p><p>I'll upload our stats once <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/RepairMonitor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RepairMonitor</span></a> has made them available.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/fixer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fixer</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/repaircafes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repaircafes</span></a></p>

We use <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/RepairMonitor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RepairMonitor</span></a> to log all of our work so that it's captured by Repair Cafe International. This gives us a few stats and thanks to the fact that we have a session on the first Saturday of the month and that we have two sessions per month, we are currently at the top of the Items Through the Door chart. The percentage fixed measure isn't one that we get competitive about. As long as the end of life number is low, then we're happy.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/repaircafes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repaircafes</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/fixer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fixer</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/righttorepair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>righttorepair</span></a><br>@repaircafe</p>
Repair Cafe Rugby<p>Another 1st Saturday and another <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/repaircafe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repaircafe</span></a> in <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/RugbyTown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RugbyTown</span></a>. This one was quieter than usual. Or maybe we should say less chaotic.</p><p>Today's mix included a stereo that was in for its third session and was finally condemned. The processor seems to be fried. One of the few bits we can't replace. </p><p>We gave a shovel a new handle. That required planing the handle and adding a bolt. We don't often need woodworking tools, but thankfully we have a Library of Things and that contained a plane.</p><p>The most satisfying item for me was a folding pram frame that wouldn't lock in place anymore. Looks like the manufacturing process damaged the riveted hinge pins. We drilled them out and replaced them with bolts and it's as good as new. The perfect example of a design that discourages repair of minor failures by fixing everything together with rivets. <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/fixer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fixer</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/repair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>repair</span></a> @repaircafe</p>

I was a little concerned that we might not get any custom, but 33 items through the door was a nice number. Not to hectic but enough to keep us busy until about 20mins before the end of the session.
