    Hi, in this video I attempt to fix items sent into my PO Box by viewers of the channel. In this video I look at 4 different items.
    If you would like to support these videos, please click here / mymatevince
    Remember that this is just for entertainment and I am not an expert in these repairs. The processes in the video may not be the best way, the correct way or the safest way to fix these things. I do love fault finding and trying to fix broken things, so I hope that comes across in this 'Trying to FIX' series. Many thanks, Vince.

    Female here. I've started fixing things around the house because of watching you and a few other CZcamsrs. A few weeks ago, I fixed a cheap toaster. It was really interesting. LOL Merry Christmas to you and your family!

      Well done! I've been watching Vince for a long time now and my attempts at fixing stuff are hit and miss (more misses than hits). I don't have Vince's patience for one thing.

    Vince, my friend works as a technician at Apple in Cupertino and he told me that they have watched a lot of your fixing MacBook videos in the labs there and they get a real kick out of them. Tim Cook even came down and watched a few with them! I know people won’t believe this but I promise you it is true. They think you are wonderful and you have a standing invitation for a personal tour of the “Spaceship”and the labs if you ever find your way to California. Family included. 🍻🍻🍻

    Hi Vince the motor head on the satelite dish rotator you worked on is almost identical to the rotator we worked on that swivels an array of solar panels, they keep the panels facing the sun.
    The timer controller nudges the motor so many degrees every 30mins then resets to the start position at dusk.

I know it's not really "car" stuff like you're working on the engine or something. Just didn't think I'd enjoy them but maybe I will!

    Some feed back .. coming from an electronic engineering career, your channel is obedient of my top 3 entertaining and informative and funny. But you mention the RR videos not doing well, for me and I guess most of your viewers car fixing is interesting but there are so many channels out there doing that you are up against some slick content. Also, can’t relate to a RR, yes it quality engineering but it’s a RR and your target audience for RR fixing is very small.
    Concentrate on house hold fixing, more relatable to your target audience and you are excellent at it.
    Keep it up and merry Christmas Vince
