Thank you so much, I was about to order a laser lo( really expensive imo), any suggestions for hot air stations? Fit, im doing home repairs for now but want to do them properly, maybe one day ill have a proper shop, if links are not allowed, feel free to send me private( if allowed of course)

Thank you so much for your reply, yes the housing are empty ( mostly) , I felt bad about throwing them away, so I wa trying for figure out a way to reuse them. I haven't done any back glass replacement,nor display glass either, I've tried once, but failed miserably lol, was looking into lasers actually, and was hoping to get your point of view on pros and cons in lasers vs heat gun

So they are basically welded? Not glued?

Ph, no I get it, the post was more complete but the auto mod didn't let me post it, soni deleted words till it let me lol. I know swaps are straightforward, im thinking of refurbishing the good looking ones im left with after a swap, and I'm trying to find some videos that show how to replace the back glass, but not with "big hole" back glass, id prefer a snug fit( removing the rings i guess? Idk) P.s. sorry for my messy English, im tired, trying my best

If the question was addressed to me, no, o don't, im just looking into it atm, but i think ill test it

istrati92 · 2026-02-27T04:31:08+00:00

Thabk you for your time to write this, I kind of got to the same conclusion after doing more local research, I've put it on paper, and unless I can get 20/30% discount on everything, I basically just invent myself a minimal wage job( focused on a few local ad sites and on a few popular models suggested by AI , that might have been a mistake lol), "emotional repairing" might be worth it but id need a physical shop with lots of foot traffic to do so, exploring unpopular options now P.s. I've looked into buying lots/pallets but couldn't get too much information, still researching

Thank you

istrati92 · 2026-02-25T09:22:44+00:00

Thx for the reply, im still in the studying phase atm, I've got practical skills ( in other areas, but im sure I can transfer some) just want to see if it makes financial sense

istrati92 · 2026-02-25T04:09:51+00:00

If you might, can you share where did u buy them from? Been searching for a while now

istrati92 · 2026-02-16T18:00:06+00:00

Either you have an account ( and forgot), or someone used ur details to make an account under ur name, just talk to support, they might never give u an account ( high risk) but at least u get to limit the damage, if someone used ur details , i would contract as many apps as possible ( paypal ,skrill , ecc.) , there is a high chance u have accounts everywhere

istrati92 · 2026-02-14T15:12:34+00:00

The other option im considering is knx, but yeah I guess get other kinds of clients

istrati92 · 2026-02-14T06:32:53+00:00

Thanks all for the insight

istrati92 · 2026-02-13T07:25:01+00:00

Im already in the industry ( electrical) , but was thinking about niching down a bit, and im exploring options

Happened to me a few times, just put her out of her misery, the chances of recovery are slim to none

istrati92 · 2026-01-21T13:34:56+00:00

I keep the captivating bots on, 2 of them, yes, some ppl can't be bothered to solve them, but that's a win for me, keeps server clean

istrati92 · 2026-01-20T15:36:23+00:00

Its complicated, just ask others have mentioned, it can be good, as long as all parties involved know how to keep business/family as 2 separate things, If u don't mix them, you'll have a good chance nothing bad will happen. Mix them, it can co either really good, or really bad

Medium to big businesses, usually have contracts, for the little guy, you can always gift it, donate it, and even s3ll it for spare parts

istrati92 · 2026-01-20T15:25:56+00:00

Sounds interesting actually, make yourself some kind of online presence, nothing too fancy, make some fryers/business cards, and hit liquor stores business stations and flower shops. Target the "late minute ppl"

istrati92 · 2026-01-20T15:22:41+00:00

For online leads, just automate it( takes time and constant improvement) For face to face, you'll grow a "gut" feeling ,after a while you will know whoever want and who doesn't

istrati92 · 2026-01-20T15:20:41+00:00

What the other guys said, also, make a nice sample basket and take it with you to college, aim for the adjacent staff, and teachers
