A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

Pic looks good. Probably the best option is to trim that cord a little past that break, remove the broken section, and insert the trimmed cord and reattach it to the trimmer. This will probably require soldering, and will definitely require opening the case. A picture of the trimmer with any visible screws shown will help to determine how feasible this is. You will require some solder, a soldering iron, and some flux. If you haven't done soldering before, this could be the most forgiving project to learn it on. Electrical soldering is pretty easy, electronics are fairly precise.
