  1. Kitchen scale repair

    After a couple of decades of use, the pointer on my Hema analog kitchen scale broke. This model is long out of production, and analog scales of this weight class (500 g) are kind of rare.

    Since I have a preference for equipment that doesn’t require batteries I wanted to repair it. This article documents how that was done.

    To be honest, if I didn’t have a 3D printer this repair might not have happened. The pointer is a small and delicate injection molded part with a wall thickness in the order of 0.5 mm.

  2. Repairing a USB flash drive

    Recently, one of my USB flash drives, a Kingston DataTraveller 100 G3, stopped working. It didn’t register at all in whatever PC I tried it in. So in this article, I will attempt to repair it.
