My cooktop with a pot. [View all]

Why am I posting this? Well, several months ago, that burner stopped working, and I thought it could never be fixed. So I left it. Then another burner quit and that was too much. I decided to explore finding someone who's competent at this sort of thing, and see what can be done.
Long story short, it was accomplished. I was very happy. And tonight I got to use that burner for the first time in a long time.

I'm celebrating!
