I noted this on the Center for a New American Dream e-newsletter today…. I LOVE this idea of a “fixers collective”… where people bring their “tired, their poor, their huddled masses yearning to” be repaired….

Is this something we could do here….? We do have some specialized repair groups locally, like RIBS for bikes and the Computer
All-Stars/Finger Lakes ReUse for computers… but it would be great to have a place where folks who know how to rewire old lamps, or fix that finicky toaster, or what-have-you could assemble and fix one another’s stuff and keep it in service….
Whaddaya think….? Perhaps this is something the Ludgate’s working group could consider….?
