1. If yous think you're a real technician, just wait until a little daughter
   brings yous her expressionless Furby she loves and begs you to resurrect him/her/it.

   30 years of military and noncombatant electronics repair experience is no
   match for a dead Furby.

   Afterward considerable research into Furby electro-mechanics, I discovered an
   intermittent limit switch in the flambastic transwobulator had sent
   negative vibrations to the transwobulator's flabillitator in such a mode
   that further transwobulation was impossible as it put the transwobulator
   into a state very simular to a human being coma.

   A couple of strokes of my relay contact burnisher and a tiny squirt of
   magic WD-twoscore brought Furby back from the grave, much to the delight of his
   owner, who now thinks I have more magic powers than whatever religious leader
   in the Universe....(c;]

   I'm terrified more dead Furbys will materialize at the easily of crying
   little girls who are born to wrap 65 year old electronics technicians
   around their little fingers......Failure is not an selection!

   Absolutely nothing I ever repaired, calibrated or overhauled has been
   anywhere near as rewarding at that dead Furby.

   (Service hint - Mommy does Non know what batteries in the drawer are dead
   and which ones are good, even though she thinks they are "new".)

2. Additional service hint - Furby's peel comes off like a t-shirt once y'all
   cut the tywrap from effectually his bottom groove. Don't forget to replace his
   tywrap upon successful completion considering "we don't want anyone to see him
   naked."....her words...(c;]

3. The old "Worlds of Wonder" animated toys (Teddy Ruxpin, Snoopy, Goofy,
   Mickey Mouse, etc.) make Furby'due south wait like a walk in the park. While
   fixing them is possible, doing so in a cosmetically acceptable way
   is the tough role!

   (I "collect" them and "repurpose" them which means "guts transplants")

4. It assumes Furby is a male child.

   Pitiful if that offends you.

5. I'yard a newbie here. Didn't know each mail service came with an English
   professor....(c;]

6. Really, my specialty is metrology. My last serious job, before moving
   on to the electronic organ/keyboard business in the late 1980'due south, was as a
   GS-eleven Electronic Technician at the Charleston Naval Shipyard's Metrology
   Laboratory.

   Since 1964, when I joined the Navy to avoid existence murdered for the
   military contractors profits in Vietnam, I've been in military
   electronics most of the time. In 1977-79, I spent 2.v years building a
   metrology laboratory at Iranian Air Strength Headquarters, Tehran for a Us
   contractor. I've been back to the MidEast many times for our armed services
   and others.

   Think I can qualify as an electronics technician? I taught them at
   Sumter Surface area Technical Higher, Sumter, SC, for 7 years from '71 to '78.
   Great fun if you don't need money to live on.

   I saw this online later my prized possession..white furby has been chewed
   up by my canis familiaris.

   I've had him for 13 years and I can't handle him RIP. He needs a
   transplant. He still works, just my dog ate
   the eyes out and bankrupt some of the plastic parts effectually it.

   Any suggestions? Would you care to be the donor? haha
