It's easy: 1. Package in in a box, 2. Send box to Mark, 3. Pay for repair

Very inspiring. I disassembled a dead classroom tape recorder / pa for a friend today. Since he'd already written it off, I decided there was nothing to lose by attempting to repair it. I poked around with a plastic straw and discovered the fault was a dry joint on the main amplifier board. Power light came back on, and the audio burst back to life. Once I'd removed the power amp module and flipped it over I discover two dry joints which I resoldered. Mark, you're an inspiration. Thank you very much.

Never thought that repairing electronics can make you so happy, until I found this channel.
@rgbplumbinghilton
This is one of the best electronics channel on Internet period!! Easy to follow and some great tips about the process.
@ImolaS3
I started my electronics technician apprenticeship 44 years ago and it is wonderful to see someone with your skills developing this new course. So much has been lost over the years on the way to a disposable electronics industry
@IanScottJohnston
During Mark's intro I was waiting and hoping he would say the No.1 step was to 'replicate the customers fault'........and he did. Soooo important!
@ManFromLaBamba
This man has such a friendly disposition.
@rafammbass
I will be forever grateful to Tom Evans for bringing me to this channel. 😂😂😂

Mark, I feel that you undervalue what you bring to your videos and your repairs. You are an artist. We have watched you redo the windings of multiple motors, remake knobs, make pcb traces the OLD school way, etc.. I think your new venture will be HUGELY successful because you are a joy to watch and you have such a relaxing way of teaching/explaining.

Having recently retired after 53 years repairing consumer electronics at last i can pick and chose which jobs to accept and not having to worry about ensuring every one of them results in a profit takes away the stress that can make this line of work a bit daunting. I was lucky in that i attended tech college for the theory and worked full time learning the skills to find faults to component level without replacing every component on the board, only to find it it was only a hairline crack in the print. Good luck to anyone taking up this rewarding career even if only as hobby, it can earn you a nice level of income. Mark is one of the best you will find, stick with him as he shows that it is not a dark art.
@andrewpoxon4528
I've only just stumbled on your videos and it HAS reignited my interest in this stuff. I'm 68 so it's never too late.
@MVVblog
I think we have the new king of youtue in electronics, for me the number 1 channel in the world!
@SassyXR6007
I don't know if you'll read this Mark but I've been right into electronics since i was 8, I'm now 46 and my obsession has never stopped, it does at times though get put aside. You're videos are absolutely brilliant in every way and thanks to you my obsession is now through the roof. I'm buying equipment, tools ect and I'm turning my garage into a electronic repair centre! haha thanks mate from a fan down under.
@jonahyue4755
In my opinion your are the best repair tech on YT. The fact you manufacture parts when they are unavailable puts you on another level. Thank you for all your videos!
@patmat.
You're the true ecologist, not only for the scrap you prevent at your repairman scale, but for awareness and satisfaction of repairing things at the world scale through this channel.
@richardbrobeck2384
Great Video Mark ! I have been repairing equipment for over 30 years and I still am learning !
@TheElectronicDilettante
Preach on Sir. There are so many channels that try to “teach “ diagnostics and just make the process more difficult to grasp. I’m glad someone finally said something . I was actually just blocked from a channel for , respectfully, giving my opinion, backed with documentation and other references. It was the opposite of appreciated. My biggest gripe was , verify the complaint. Simple. Second, have all the components of the system to be repaired. If you have a battery charger that only charges a specific tool battery. Sure, you might be able to muddle through and get lucky. But you won’t really know how the battery charger has failed if you don’t have the battery it charges. I saw one that tore into the board because the LED didn’t illuminate. Having about 12 of those chargers, and had I not been blocked , I would’ve shared that the LEDs always fail so you have to start there before anything. Thanks for your video.

"Mend it Mark", I really love your electronics repair channel. At 73 years old I still enjoy repairing electronics especially the older vintage radios and equipment and seeing how others fix things. Now that you pointed out the three step process for repairing any electronics device, I have learned years ago to find the fault and what's causing it and then replace or fix what is causing the fault. Simple. Thought it was a waste to replace a lot of parts needlessly. Only exception is replacing most all paper wax capacitors and electrolytics in very old radios.
@Pwills
A 3 hour long video, yes please 👍
