Bill, with the help of his glamourous assistant, Nicholas, is taking my Designer 1 apart.

I have had to leave the room

ETA: after much gritted teeth noises (due to presence of soon *two* boys) he got all the acrews out. after they had gone to bed, he SOLDERED something. in my super duper conputeriesed sewing machine. eek. well, he took the power supply out and soldered a bit of it. he says it works now. i'll let you know in the morning.
