I took apart a broken Ryobi leaf blower (RY40402) to see if it would be cheaper to fix it rather than buy a new one. Easier to disassemble than I was expecting. At least until I got to the actual problem, the burned out motor. The motor was fused to the housing assembly, requiring the replacement of the housing assembly, motor, and blower fan. In the end it would cost the same to replace the leaf blower with a newer, more powerful version as to repair the broken one.

I like to cook and I’m making some duck pho right now. Well, it’s simmering away. Going to be delicious!

Tried to read and write more. Recently tried to open up my notebooks “rules” to use one book for multiple free purposes and it makes it so much more enjoyable.

I bought an audio interface to start recording music

This came out pretty good in resin, even captured some of the small antenna details. I think it’ll look great once it’s painted.

Nothing, just sleeping. 31th did nothing and first just tried to sleep more and watch YouTube and p*rn

I did a bit of reading and writing for a short story idea I have. Other than that, learning about things via Youtube, and playing video games.

Been sick with the flu 🤒
