So that's why I never throw anything away.
Who'd have thought that an
LED display stick I bought over 30 years ago would find a home in an
early 70's calculator... in 2009. Of course now I have yet another
vintage four-function calculator I don't need, but it still feels good
to fix something that would otherwise have ended up in the trash.
I hate throwing things away particularly if they're not working (I
don't mind giving away working things) I recently repaired a
cordless drill with a MOSFET taken from an old 1/2" tape drive
controller board.
I figure that it's a disease.
