Thanks, @wkbaran. Plus, most of the stuff we have now, we're not expected to fix. It's just assumed we're going to throw it out and buy something new. Paying someone else to fix this mower would probably have cost as much as getting another one.

That's true especially for the country I live in. We're generally spoiled and not as hands-on as people in bigger countries. So we either throw the thing away or just call somebody to fix it. Kinda sad. Nobody knows how to fix anything anymore.

I think a lot of it comes down to how busy everyone is. Plus, kids aren't encouraged to take things apart and really play with things with their hands. So they grow up incapable of figuring out basic tools.
I grew up without a father, so it's not like anyone showed me how to do any of this. Fortunately I don't mind getting my hands dirty.
