Fixit Clinic CCII (202) Fremont Library

Celebrating repair through do-it-together hands-on STEM-oriented fix-n-learn community-based discovery and disassembly: you actively participate in the disassembly, troubleshooting, and repair of your item and leave empowered to share your new-found confidence and insight with your friends, neighbors, and the community at large.

Typically, 70% of the items brought in to Fixit Clinics are fixed. It's fun to take apart stuff, see how it worked, and fix it. Fixit Clinic demystifies technology and science so that we can ultimately make better policy choices as a society.

So bring your broken, non-functioning things -- electronics, appliances, computers, toys, sewing machines, bicycles, fabric items, etc.-- for assessment, disassembly, and possible repair. We'll provide workspace, specialty tools, and guidance to help you disassemble and troubleshoot your item. Whether we fix it or not, you'll learn more about how it was manufactured and how it worked.

Returning to the Fremont Library: we look forward to seeing you at this Fixit Clinic!

WHY: To make friends, learn and teach how to fix things, and have fun!

- 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

- Come ready to learn and to share your knowledge with others
