  • Screen blindness Why seniors can’t follow instructions on the screen.

    This is what happens when an adult or senior is so terrified about tech that they forget what words on the screen mean. Me: Just fill out this form on the iPad. Senior: I can’t … what do I put here. Me: … your name. Senior : I can’t I don’t know what to put…

  • We moved the Opening Date to Aug 13th

    Sometimes you have to delay. While we could open the shop bare bones with just enough to do the work we have decided that we do not want to kill ourselves in the process. So we changed the opening date to AUG 13th.

  • Yarrr! What does opening a phone and Mac repair shop have to do with pirates?

    I’m very picky about the services and products we offer. So when I found a distributor for refurbished iPhones, I had to take another closer look. I did my research, checked reviews and even made a few phone calls. I even ordered iPhone 8 for my wife. She has been using it for about three…

  • New Shop Coming to Lithgow Soon

    When we opened MacMason Repairs and Training it was right in the middle of COVID lockdowns. I had been laid off from my previous employer in Katoomba, and there is not any Mac shops in the area. Until my wife pointed out to me that there are no Mac Shops in the area! So we…
