SG60 celebration 2025/8/18

 

Backpack Upgrade 2025/8/12

Keychain “THULE” when I was working for ChinShinLtd, who is the distributor for the Roof Rack brand from Sweden.

Keychain “RSAF” was a gift from my brother, whose employer is SG Air Force.

Keychain “NeckTie” was make by 淑敏, my 東方不敗Line Dance classmate.

Had these Case Logic backpack for many years, when ChunShinLtd is the Distributor.  THULE of Sweden actually buy over the brand from USA. The strap is deteriorating and teared off easily, which I finally decided to replace it with available free Lanyard collected at exhibition visits. With an additional chest strap to make  travelling more comfortable with the backpack.

@Dandelion常不輕-2025/7/27

TongAn dance classmate recommended this high tea place located within 慈濟關渡 building. Surprised it’s a pretty serene restaurant and gift shop just beside. Also another coffee/tea outlet which operate till 6pm. Famil-mart established a store in their building too. Went to 92 水鳥 Spanish restaurant for dinner.

Repair Umbrella 2025/7/9

Umbrella repair version 1.0 wasn’t as effective by using cable ties and metal string. The umbrella's frame sagged down and convas's profile don’t looks good. Took a while, thinking what best repair method version 2.0 . Using aluminum plate cutted from can drink container and shape like original frame. Wrapped it up with aluinum foil taping to prevent dislodge.

One of the umbrella plastic frame was broken. Above picture showed after it’s repaired.

Position where the plastic frame was broken. Obviously, can’t find any replacement part.

Repair method: cut an aluminum piece from a drink can. Bend the aluminum into frame shape, lock with a hole on one end and friction grip the other end. Wrapping with aluminum tape.
