Lawn mower repairs

It is time to mow again... well it has been, but I am finally getting around to fixing my push mower that I use for touch up, small areas, etc. Bring it out for the season and of course it will not start. Spray some starter fluid in, it kicks over a few putt putts... Drained any old gas out, replaced with fresh - still nothing.

The motor is a TB105b - a quick search on amazon and it looks like replacement carbs are only available for model TB110 and up. Nothing for the 105b. The one for the 110 looks very similar, so I ordered it.

Received it, and it is basically the same, with an additional lever to control the choke. Apparently the TB105b just has the choke locked in the open position. I am going to get working on it later today, and hopefully I can report back that with a simple mod, the TB110 carb will work fine on the TB105b.

3D Printing hot end upgrade

3D printing is great, isn't it? Until you run into your first issue (this hardly ever happens, right? right?).

Had my first hot end disaster, started a print, walked away... forgot to check 1st layer adhesion... Oops!

On to amazon to order a replacement... wait... are there any better hot ends for the Elegoo line up? There are! I'm going to be trying out this one below.

Bluetooth OBD2 reader

Along with all of my tinkering with 3d printing and woodworking, I also maintain all of my own vehicles. What is the first thing I'd recommend anyone has? A decent OBD2 reader!

If your check engine light is on, you'll be able to see the error codes stored. The BlueDriver app will give you a list of solutions to repair your car. Sometimes it might be out of your capabilities, but what if you could replace a simple part and save yourself hundreds at a repair shop? This device will pay for itself!
