Fixed = phone up CS and got it replaced under warrantyHow have you managed all that without owning a soldering iron
If I remember the microwave was just a diode that was screwed in that had split. So the power wasn't getting to the magnetron.How have you managed all that without owning a soldering iron
The speaker I didn't need solder either, but it was too long ago to remember.
When I changed the light in the bathroom I just used wago things. That was crazy. Needed a 6 gang as 5 wires in the old rose in one junction!

Don't buy a cheap one.
You don't have to go top end mental either, but cheap soldering irons are quite frankly ******* awful, go mid range, adjustable temp with stand.
I'd probably be spending like £40 on one.

The best way to get rubbish stolen is put it outside with a sign saying "Item X...£100, please leave money on door step"
whenever i clean out garage shed or house any mechanical/electrical items go into the front turnaround they usually disappear in a couple of days.
only time i had trouble was a couple of old honda diesel engines large oily and pretty cumbersome, put a advert on f/b market free for collection first come first served. guyturned up in a toyota aygo...........only drivers seat in the car and a small portable engine lift. he got them both in but cant have been very safe

Yeah, always RTFM, but newer ones must be designed differently, or use different gasses or something, as 4hrs was the case when I bought one about 3 years ago.

Shortly after my car crash which put me in the wheelchair, I had a sudden break-up with an increasingly abusive girlfriend (and after trying politely to get her dad to come and collect all her stuff), I lost my patience with getting messed about and told them if they weren't round by midday tomorrow, I'd have all her stuff (and the stuff we'd bought "together") put out on the pavement in front of the house.
I received a phonecall the next day from someone claiming to be a police officer (but I thought was one of her mates messing me about), informing me that if her stuff were to be stolen, I'd be responsible for replacing it.
My response: "Well, joke's on them; when they open the fridge and realise they've got a body to dump, too".
9 hours I spent in the interview suite at my local constabulary. 9 bloody hours.

That fridge was dumped for a reason.
I suspect it's freezing on minimum.

How does it even hold a yo-yo?
Plug it into the wall and use the heat from electricity to melt the wires together.How have you managed all that without owning a soldering iron

Brill! Now buy that soldering iron for next time 
I normally am not a tool snob and recommend anything people can afford. But with soldering irons I've honestly found a decent (not expensive, kit but a proper brand) will literally make your work easier and better. Just an Antex or similar, used to be £20-25 although I've not bought one in years.
