I last fixed my Foghat cassette

(Thier 1981 album)

It had a crappy pad in it which produced horrible sound!!

I fixed my SUPER HITS OF THE 50s cassette today

It said COPYRIGHT 1978 when I bought it so I was hopefull they didnt ruin the songs..

They didnt but the tape didnt play well and I thought it was because of no rollers but it did have rollers... I put it in another cassette she plays fine

I fixed another tape I had that didnt play well in its cartridge (Def Leppard - Pyromania) and it had rollers!!

Thankfully that one plays in the alternate case I put it in... (A few months ago)

I fixed my record player needle earlier!

I heard a noise the other day like something broke and needle wouldnt go in!! (I thought the cartridge broke) but I found the needle earlier on the floor and I tried again and it popped in nice the tight!! (It was loose before)

Worked on a lower kitchen cabinet door. It was not holding closed. I re-magnetized the magnet on the door, and tightened the metal latch the magnet attaches to. Still didn't work.

Took a flashlight and checked, and found there was a slight warp on the door, which was preventing contact. Tried a little brute force to bend it straight, no luck.

Loosened the magnet slightly, and inserted a small piece of cardboard backing from a pad of paper and retightened, which was just enough to get the magnet to contact.

I fixed my 38 special 8 track tape today

(Wild Eyed Southern boys)

This is a CRC copy and I didnt wanna lose it!

It wouldnt play well in the cartridge it was in so I put the spool in a spare cartl I had and she plays beautifully!!
