Fixit Clinics turn consumers into fixers

Here’s a question for you- if you have something around your house that needs fixing- an appliance, a device… What do you do? Fix it or ditch it? If you do want to get something fixed, but you're not a do-it-yourselfer or you're just too intimidated to try fixing things yourself – then what?

Well, reporter Mary Catherine O'Connor looked for answers - at a Fixit Clinic at a library in San Mateo. 

And if you have a much loved item that’s in need of some TLC, you’re in luck! KALW is hosting a fix it clinic tonight! It’s happening at our live event space at 220 Montgomery in San Francisco.
