When IMS Associates, Inc., couldn't get their hands on an Altair 8800, they decided to make their own! How's that possible? Key technology like the S-100 bus were easy to replicate, leading to a slew of clones, like the IMSAI 8080.

Nothing says CES like booths, badges, and… soldering. We fired up the FixHub on the show floor and @beccafarsace.bsky.social jumped in to give it a go. Repair doesn’t need a lab. Just the right tools.

From electrically-releasing adhesive to adhesive-free screen repairs, these phones stood out in 2025 for their repair-friendly design. Especially the number-one ranked phone!

We tore down Samsung’s Galaxy XR. Inside we found a quick-swap battery, modular parts, and a warranty sticker that should not exist. Is it the $1800 Vision Pro killer, or just another headset? Check out the teardown at the links below.

You just need 1 tool and 1 minute for some common household maintenance, like tightening the kickplate on your dishwasher!

Looking for a small gift with big impact? The Minnow is small enough to fit in a stocking and tough enough to handle real repairs on the go. It’s the everyday carry toolkit that turns your favorite tinkerer into the on-call fixer wherever they are.
