Re: New way to replace Bosch brushes.
Did timdowning i see you asume someone is making a profit out of this website, here is your quote.
It would be interesting to know how much the subscription would have to be to cover UKwhitegoods plus the profit made by advertising / sales. te]do you now something we dont or was it a statement,you hadnt realy thought about. ❓
Re: New way to replace Bosch brushes.
iadom nothing in life is for free, every time someone watches posts on how to repair on utube actually will cost each and everyone of us in some way,
heres a little story, a man is an expert on cabbages, so he decides to open a forum,on the internet for all other experts on cabbages to join. this is brilliant for all concerned freedom to talk to other cabbage growers and suppliers, about all things concerned about cabbages.
trouble is initially this man had very good intentions, and soon realised,that cabbages dont grow on trees,(obviosly not quite the expert he thought he was 😆 ) anyway lets push on, a decision had to be made,because of the success of his internet forum,he soon realized,he was not quite paying enough attention to his own cabbages,and his business started to suffer.how can this be rectified 😯 ?. the answer was staring him in the face,lets open a little shop on the cabbage forum, and sell all and sundry that you could imagine for the expert cabbage grower of the future. in fact why not open a forum for the public, and then see how nieve our cabbage experts are,lets see if they can tell the public how to grow cabbages,then maybe they will come and buy there equipment from me.in fact if i go as far as producing my own brand of cabbage life may become a bed of roses, soon it wasnt long before everyone became a cabbage expert, and the real cabbage experts,where no more.i infact think this is a ,brilliant idea and only wish i thought of it first,
iadom you may now understand the reasons why i dont make many comments on this site, and the only reason is. is because of the type of information passed on to the puplic. if this were more restrained,then maybe we could grow cabbages for a lot longer. i do believe in helping the general puplic as much as possible,but i feel there has to be limits to what information should be given. and yes your right this site is a fantastic resource, but all we get ramed down our throughts is dont complain you get it for free.
why not have a small subscription if this site costs so much to run,then maybe there would be no need to tell jo public in grafic detail how to fix their appliances.
if this is a fair and open forum no doubt i will here your replies and views.Re: New way to replace Bosch brushes.
well said martin and i do agree with the points Kwatt has made, so will now take aleaf,out of your book,and have to concentrate on more upmarket appliances,in doing this i may have to move to a more upmarket area, so could you please forward your postcode Martin, may soon be your new neighbour LOL. 😆 😆
Re: New way to replace Bosch brushes.
looking at all the different views and opinions, maybe im a bit old fashioned,
maybe i should change my ways,
maybe i should start supplying parts to the general public and send a little doit yourself cd with them.
maybe as time progresses,i could be a hollogram, and hold jo publics, hand and show from start to finish how to do a repair.
just because times are changing doesent mean to say, that WE have to take part in the extinction of the small, independent engineer, yes the internet and technology are the future, but what is the long term future for our trade? nobody nows. but what i do now is, that i do not support the idea of showing jo puplic how to do my job.
maybe its time for a career change, looks like there may be good prospects, as a short film producer, maybe if i go on the internet,i will find out how. damn im to late looks like the market is over run,
to much competition,making small films for the white goods industry.
at the end of this rant i hope that i have not have offended, anybody,
but i do believe topics like this should be brought up more often, it would be daft if all of us just followed the flow. so it is good to hear other opinions, and points of view. but at the end of the day i believe only the larger companys doing repairs and supplying large amounts of spare parts to the public may only survive.
as a small independent, i do not want to expand in order to keep up with the jones:es, been there done it, just happy to pay the morgage and have a decent quality of life, without the worry of PAYE, working 24 hour days making sure your making enough money, to pay someone elses holiday pay,like i say been there done it, and if that pleases some people that is fine but, but im just happy trying to make a respectable modest living. but i feel the nails in the coffin lid are getting closer.Re: New way to replace Bosch brushes.
Quite concerned, penguin 45.
am i right in thinking you have to much work, and are therfore posting on you tube, a do it yourself guide, for the public, on how to repair appliances.
i do believe that giving people general advice on repairs is ok. but do not think it necessary to actualy, show them how to do it. with this present economic climate i believe this is not the way forward,
hope this does not offend, am i being to fussy or am i not the only independent engineer,with this point of view.Re: ZAN. zwf14070W
checked all of the above including glance at pcb tracks, but nothing seems amiss. 😥 😥
