    Remember that this is just for entertainment and I am not an expert in these repairs. The processes in the video may not be the best way, the correct way or the safest way to fix these things. I do love fault finding and trying to fix broken things, so I hope that comes across in this 'Trying to FIX' series. Many thanks, Vince.

      I would like to fix that hole with some epoxy resin and fiberglass stuff that I work with very often. But the problem is that I am in Hungary and I can't travel because of the massive virus problems.

      And inside the motor I don't spray WD40. Instead, I spray Weldtite TF2 teflon spray that I buy at our bicycle shop.

    Vince! Don't sell yourself short! The Dougal fix was brilliant. Using body filler and painting it almost the exact color really looked better than I thought it could be. I say go back and paint a little more around the dog to make it even more realistic.

  • @StezStixFix
    @StezStixFix 3 роки тому +6

    That Jukepet is definitely going to give me nightmares. And the Dougal was all cute and cuddly until you made him satanic at the end. All you need to do now is make the Coco Pop badge play music from The Exorcist, and you're on to a hat-trick! Apart from that, awesome job, as always! 😉

    @Timothycan 3 роки тому +1

    I have a 'Laughing Bag' toy, a bag with a clown's face on it, and when you press a button it laughs for a few seconds. In the bag is a little mini record-player, almost identical inside to your Jukebox toy, except there is only one record (of the laughing) which is permanently glued in. The mechanism is SO similar that I'm sure it was made by the same company as your toy.

    Hi. I`m from Japan. I had Jukepet when I was kid and loved it. 3 Years ago I found it on ebay and now I have 4 of them. I needed to fix them as you did on this video. But I`ve never open motor. That was something new information. Thank you.

  • @cass276
    @cass276 3 роки тому +1

    Hi Vince
    When i was a kid in the 60s i had a toy train ( the American western type) that worked the same way as Dougal.
    As i understand it when the toy hits something, the two wheels underneath work like a differential on a car, and when resistance is met drive swops over from one wheel to the other, and as the wheels can spin on an axis the toy takes off in a different, random direction including reverse.
    My train had flashing lights in the front and cab and was probably made by the same company.
    Ohh the memories!...i still remember me and my dad (long since passed) playing with that train on the rug on Christmas morning.
    Cheers!
    Chris

    Love your videos, just a note: WD 40 is a protectant (anti rust). The lubricant (volatile) will evaporate leaving a coating behind to prevent rust. It only lubricates temporarily. So using on gears, pivots and contacts will actually cause everything to bind up later or not conduct electricity.

    Vince try adding baking soda to super glue to make an instant dry cement. Just use superglue like normal then while holding the parts together sprinkle some baking soda over it to have it dry an harden instantly. You can also slowly build up missing parts/ holes. Best part is its sand able after about 1 minute. I have used this on serval plastics an it always works. Even on broken car dash panel clips.
