ITEM FIXING GUIDE

To repair a broken item, put it in Jeff's inventory and stay the night at a hotel or other similar establishment. If his IQ is high enough and if luck is on your side, he'll work through the night and fix the item. There's a system to how likely he'll repair an item, and it goes as follows:

Your very first attempt to fix an item in the game has a 100% chance of success.
If your last attempt had a 100% chance, the next fix will have a 25% chance of success.
If a 25% chance of success succeeds, your next fix will have a 100% chance of success.
If a 25% chance of success fails, your next fix will have a 25% chance of success.

Note that the ruler and protractor have absolutely no bearing on your chances of fixing an item.
