Why I Do What I Do - TronicsFix Q & A - ft TronicsWife! In this video I'm answering about 20 questions from my followers. From business questions (like why I don't repair customer game consoles anymore) to personal questions (like what does my wife think about my YouTube channel) I'll be answering your questions so you can get to know me a little bit better.

About This Video: In this video I'm answering these questions from you: Why did you stop repairing consoles? When you are looking for broken items to bid on, how do you evaluate items before you bid and what are the “deal breakers” for the items you like to fix. What profit margins are you trying to hit? Do you have a significant other and what do they think about your channel? Do you have children? How did you learn how to repair consoles? How old are you? And do you prefer Android or iPhone and what is your current smartphone that you use the most?

Have something broken you want to send me?

What questions do you have that I didn't answer?

[Mymatevince]

Nice to meet the family Steve, very enjoyable video. Your son (mini Steve) stole the show on this one with his perfect timing :-)

[richardgould]

Im a IT manager in a school and love watching your videos in my downtime. No question, just a thank you.

[BigRalphSmith]

Love that you support the "Right To Fix" movement.
It's a natural progression from what you already like to do.

[waltersobchak]

The reason I love this channel is because your honesty shines through. Also because you're a stickler for perfection and you can't stand a dirty console/device. Not to mention you run a kick ass website forum for anybody who wants to fix anything. Yeah that's most of all you share your knowledge

[ProjectNateRS]

Was good to get to know the man behind the videos a little better, cheers Steve!

[markreynolds]

Great channel my guy. My only complaint is there is not more, addicted to watching you fix stuff.

[JeanP]

you have a very humble family setting with a beautiful home environment...god bless you man and keep up the great work...i'm still living vicariously through you as this was my once past time favorite thing to do

[ShALLaX]

You seem educated, down to earth and no nonsense. You have an inquisitive mind. Keep going, dude.

[JohnSmith-clfs]

One of the funniest things he does is when he says "put the perfect amount of thermal paste" lol great channel he will hit 1 million in no time

[michellefernandez]

Hope i am not late, because i just want to say thank you. This video was SO wholesome, and it gave me hope to try a lot of things. You have a lovely family and this is my fav video from this channel now.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, and for being the kind human being you are. Kudos!

[wimwiddershins]

I started out as a breaker, inquisitive kid with a screwdriver. Now I'm (mostly) a fixer. It's always great fun getting something people consider dead junk, up and running again. Great stuff Sir, thanks for sharing your knowledge, you're a natural teacher.

[nomodzreal]

Stay-at-home dad was my career goal, good to know someone got there :)

[underneathsky]

I can't stress enough how rare is to have an honest person nowadays, thank you for sharing!

[reloadfast]

I am a long time suscriber and for what it's worth, you are one of the few YT channels that I watch consistently and look forward for your videos. Keep up your great attitude and the awesome work that you do.

[patprop]

Nice family and it's nice you and your lovely wife work on the channel together.

[flori]

I found your channel because I commented on a really old Reddit post about PS4 Blue Light of Death and you actually replied! Then a few months later I saw a video recommended and the username looked familiar.

I thought it was really nice of you to reply since dead tech support threads are kinda a meme, so it was really unexpected. PS4 still going strong almost 2 years later! (Used the washer trick)

[boharihamen]

Thanks for this video. Thanks for showing your lovely family. You are truly a DIYer and Maker. Glad you like Thai Food

[KrazeeKubano]

So nice to meet the family. I've been watching you for a few months. The process of fixing electronics has always fascinated me. I wish I was younger [I'm 63] so I could have done what you do.

Legend says Steve still can’t find his son
