I feel like I always think of solar punk as a macro thing where a lot has to change but there are still smaller wins we can implement, what have you been doing?

    I know, right?!

    It doesn’t run, but I haven’t dug into it yet to figure out what’s actually wrong with it. (First world problems: we’ve already got a Kitchen Aid stand mixer, so getting it working isn’t particularly urgent. This bowl-lift one would be a slight upgrade from our Artisan, though.)

    Still, I’m pretty sure these things are a holdover from back when things were designed for repairability instead of planned obsolescence, so I have little doubt that it’s fixable for a lot less than the cost to replace it.

      I know the motors are supposedly super high quality. I wouldn’t know how to fix one but I am sure it’s going to be worth the effort. Especially if you sell it as used afterwards
