    I run 3 laptops & dust is the killer. I use a laptop cooling pad on my i7 as you could literally fry an egg around the area of the processor. Instead of using convection the cooling pad forces air through the PC & out of every orifice. 😛. It also cools your nads down on a hot day if you have it on your lap. (With pants on I might add). 😂

    Morning Will. What can I say-an insight into the composer's laboratory.😊.
    Glad laptop repair worked. Its all packed in there tightly. Puts me in mind of the maxim "if it ain't broke, fix it till it is" 😂😂. Shame it was 14 miles to Kendal. Maybe you need an electric bike plus bog battery.😂😂😂. Expensive though. Anyway, keep up the good work. Really beautiful canal now the flowers are all out.👍. Paul.

    Malcolm, an excellent vlog, very informative. Far better than that other guy Will. Blimmin laptops, they can be a real pain when they die and you lose everything including passwords, and your her indoors has tossed out your notebook with all the info. Good on you for going for the silver propellers, it set's a target. Take care.

    Treat yourself to some magnetic electrical screwdrivers methinks Mr Will and a can of compressed air for cleaning the laptop inside, dust is a killer.

    The Lancaster canal is a dream for people who are not in favour of doing locks. Gongrats with achieving silver propellor. Your laptop has some propellor issues of its own! Normally removing a carpet of dust is enough, but I think you do wisely to replace the fan, despite your impressive efforts to get it going.😅

    • @NarrowboatWill
      @NarrowboatWill  Před měsícem +2

      I have replaced it now, Umberto, but I found it interesting.

    Well done on the repair to the fan mate. I’m just like you, love to repair things myself. Shame we live in a throwaway nation nowadays. Hope you get to go down the Glasson Branch to Glasson Basin. My girlfriend and I did it a couple of years ago. Well worth the effort. Keep the vlogs going. The Lancaster canal is amazing. Glyn the gas man.

    • @NarrowboatWill

      Bless you Glyn. I've heard it's risky going down the basin. Once you go down the locks break or the pounds empty and your stuck. Still going though. Ha ha 😂 Cheers..

    • @NarrowboatWill
      @NarrowboatWill  Před měsícem

      I researched it, and the fan oil dries up, and it worked without fault. Before the computer was overloading the fan to make it work. So, in reflection. A success. 👍

    • @TheEmbeddedHobbyist
      @TheEmbeddedHobbyist Před měsícem +1

      ​@@NarrowboatWillI've re-oiled my hp laptop fan about 3 times after the replacement lasted about 6 months. As the las sub said it won't spin freely due to the magnetic poles pieces. But you might see it bounce back and forth more as it stops due to the dry oil resistance being removed.

    I would say the old section is kayakable yes but some of those locks with water falls are a no no 😅 I've not fitted wings to my kayaks just yet.
    I'm really chuffed you mentioned me.
    I've had a few mentions over the last few years from foxes afloat to narrow escape who I gave some fab footage to of the landslip in Brinklow and also kev the country house gent 😀 met em all going through Brinklow.
    Hope you'll pass through St some point. Glad uou looked at my youtube channel much appreciated.
