Slightly more ambitious #FixItYourself today. Replaced a low beam headlight bulb, which required removal and refit of the air intake and dealing with the fiddly lamp fitting. Definitely buying a proper 10mm socket next time though. El cheapo shifter (which I bought perhaps 28ish years ago on a student budget) is a bit of a false saving as it makes every job slightly more annoying.

Still, total cost $25 and about half an hour including walking to Repco.

Happy Prime Day(s)!!! I ordered a third-party replacement gear kit for my 20-year old stand mixer. I've been putting repairs off since the stroke. Got my fingers crossed. Can't wait to use the accessory hub again. My pasta roller, food grinder, and slicer/grater attachements have been sitting idle for far too long.

Cordless drivers are the perfect "lazy boy tool". I paid £25 for the Worx WX242 from a Chinese website, and it replaced not only my Wowstick (handy, but not very powerful) but also my "big boy" impact driver for most things.

Seriously, it's so convenient that I went from this https://youtube.com/shorts/Y6kf1PXIJII to running out of things to fix and tinker with.
