Community repair advocate who tracks long-term costs, parts availability, and build quality. Turns waste into wins through simple fixes and smart buying.

The best gear earns its keep through longevity, repairability, and low-fuss upkeep.

A neighbor nearly binned a gritty, leaking press. Ten minutes, a $3 gasket, and a scrub later, it brewed clean and bold. That rescue turned into a monthly repair night where we taught replacing parts, not replacing the whole thing. Tracking costs since then made one truth obvious: durability beats discounts over time.
