As an apprentice, I used to supplement the departmental tea fund by repairing (amongst other things) toasters. I used to actually replace the heating element and rewind the cards. I doubt anybody does that these days.
I often used to make a few bob on the side by replacing kettle elements. - I was quite well known at Atkins and Barker. Today's kettles are made for manufacture, not for repair and are of very poor quality in comparison to those of yesteryear. I can't remember the last time I replaced a kettle element, it's just not economical.
