Electrical Maintenance
Changing outlets of a broken extension cord I have an old mangled extension cord, that has been sitting around, so I figured I fix it so I can make use of it again. The Schutzkontaktstecker was falling apart and the cable had a cut that someone fixed with some tape. I cut off the broken part which fortunately was quite close to one of the ends and replaced both the plug and socket with a TAURUS 2 plug and socket from PCE.
Restoring a Paul Waechter Microscope Va
I acquired this Paul Waechter microscope a while back. It was in quite a rough shape, most of the brass plated parts had the brass rust off or corroded.
I decided to only fix the severely broken parts and keep as much of it original, as possible. I’m generally not a fan of making old things look new and shiny again, old things have the right to look old and used.

I found this firefly Kleiner Leuchtkäfer Lamprohiza Splendidula on my balcony caught in a spider web.
I released it afterwards.

Cleaning a Thales MEZ
So I got this Thales MEZ a while back which was in a super bad shape:
In particular after a general outside clean I redid the paint on the front-panel, as the majority was rusted off:
However, I did not clean it on the inside at the time and just put it into my shelf to sit there. Now I decided to finish what I started and repair the rest of it.
