So I'm dumb and lost my ETH password
#1
To make a short story, I was new to ETH and my brother helped me set up a wallet in which I farmed with 6 gtx 1070 for a month.
Somehow we saved not the entire password used when creating the account using GETH, only the first 7 character.
I know the password was 8 to 10 char long, only using what can be entered by the keyboard as we didn't mess with anything special so most likely the 95 ascii printable character.

I've seen the mask attack generator but have no idea if that's what I should be using, neither how to generate the possible list using it.

If for example I know (made up here for the example):

MyPas$1
And it could go from:
MyPas$1a up to MyPas$1999 including \!@#$%?&*()


How do I use Hashcat and other tools to crack the password?
I have no idea how to use it and wouldn't say I'm a pro at coding/ETH/other, yet do have decent hardware (6x 1070 gtx mining rig) to my disposition.

Thanks for helping a newbie
