Tecumseh Carburettor Swap
I was getting to the point where I had little option other than rebuilding this small Tecumseh engine carburettor, I was really surprised to find that you could purchase a whole brand new carb for the price of a rebuild kit! Its a pretty quick swap out, you just have to keep an eye out for some of the gotachas.
Amazon has these crazy cheap small engine components:

Patreon Special: 50 Questions answered!
I am aware of the risk of sounding like a total nutter by posting this video, but that is the point right? :)
I decided to answer some questions on an answer list that in hindsight was clearly aimed at North American children!
Still the simplicity of these questions have caused interesting discussions with anyone I have shared this with, so feel free to comment down below with your thoughts!
Note, all answers and thoughts are transient and open to radical U-Turns at any time :)

I have to admit, my printer bed is more ravaged than I ever anticipated, however, there is a solution! Naturally you can buy an expensive replacement bed, or as I have done, cobble something together!

Japanese Gamecube Modification Project Part 4 - Chip Modding
Ok its brutal, having this beast and only a really random Japanese Horse game to run on it. If I want to get the best out of it I am going to need to figure out how to get some English language titles on it!

The LTW writes the time with a violet laser on a piece
of ‘glow in the dark’ sticker material. After a while the numbers
fade and a new write cycle can start over.
