DH cut my POWER

Bless his heart, he feels so bad (maybe not as bad as I do but nevertheless)

We were reconfiguring my workspace, moving peripherals around and cleaning up the cables. DH likes things neat so he grabbed some tie wraps to group some cables together. He then needed to make some adjustments and went to snip the tie wraps and he CUT one of the wires to the eclips! So no cutting for me for awhile.

I've sent a message to Sizzix to see about a replacement and I shudder to think what they are going to charge for a power supply replacement, but I'll let you know so you know to wrap that thing in "gold" to protect it.

Life gives you lemons sometimes, but I don't feel like making Lemonade right now. :(

Oh no is right! :shock: Hope it won't cost an arm and a leg. I wouldn't feel like making lemonade either unless it had something a little stronger than lemons. ;) Sorry this happened.

ohmygosh! I'm so sorry that happened. Luckily, in our house, my DH is not electronically apt, so I do anything that has to do with hooking electronics up. He's a fabulous wood worker, but I don't think he could even turn on a computer! Here's hoping Sizzix is quick getting you your cord and doesn't charge too much. If there's something specific you need cut, let me know and I'll mail it to you!

:D :D :D :D :D

DH is (sorta) off the hook. The power supply black brick is $10 plus shipping/sales tax. Shipping today and since we are both in California I should have it Mon/Tues. I think I can make it until then!

Thanks from him and me for your condolences.

Yay,...I am just glad nothing was plugged in when he cut...something to be grateful for, for sure! Glad you will be up and running again soon.

Wow, that's awesome. DH must be relieved too. Glad it's working out so well and you'll be back to cutting in no time.

Sizzix customer service is great and their prices are often cheaper than other retailers selling exactly the same thing. Glad to hear you will be up and running again soon.
