We hold Fixit Clinics at Harvard and other universities to encourage “Design for Durability” (DFD), i.e. incorporate durability, maintainability, serviceability for the coming sustainable circular economy.

At the Harvard Fix-it Clinic, students, staff, and members of the public bring stopped clocks, staticky headphones, clogged vacuum cleaners, and more to eager community members and library staff who work to repair the items, while teaching the owners: hrvd.me/FixIt4665t

Adam Savage of Mythbusters shamelessly / simultaneously plugs iFixit tools while promoting Right to Repair; “...I believe in them both for their output and their political stance,”: we shamelessly concur.

Much of the emergency or backup ventilator supply needs repair to get working. The manufacturers should immediately release all the information -- service keys, manuals, schematics -- needed for hospitals to fix them:
