Repair Café Toronto Troubleshooting Workshop
Nov 13th 6-8pm, PARC (1499 Queen St W)

The Parkdale Free School is proud to host a troubleshooting workshop by Repair Café Toronto:

Have you ever wondered why your toaster or DVD player just stopped working? Don’t know where to begin? Come to our free troubleshooting workshop and learn some simple steps to solving the mystery of broken stuff. Troubleshooting is a method for determining what caused your electrical or electronic equipment (or almost anything) to break.

This workshop will go through the logical process step by step. Bring a broken home appliance or some broken home electronic equipment to practice the troubleshooting method. If you can’t fix it then and there you will know why it isn’t working and if it can be fixed.

An important skill required to fix things is to figure out how to open them up and see what’s inside. If you don’t have something to fix, we will supply various small home appliances and the tools necessary to open them up and see how they work. The Instructor will be Paul Magder, one of the co-founders of Repair Café Toronto. Repair Café Toronto is a volunteer group traveling around the city putting on repair events on a monthly basis. Their volunteers help members of the community fix their broken things for free. Join us for this hands-on workshop on Nov 13th from 6-8 pm!
