    15:07 Woah woah woah woah woah... I painstakingly CUT caps off! What kind of monster do you think I am?!

      Sorry! My words weren’t coming out smoothly during the stream! I didn’t mean to incorrectly cap shame you!

      @@BigBadBench Your editorial board is both swift and fair, thank you ;) Just finished the stream, quite the crusty IIci, and glad to hear at least some of your 6100 troubles are gone! Hope you can figure out the DOS video distortion... 🤞 (oh, and sorry again for the 575)

    I have dozens of broken parts for old Macintoshes (retaining clips, feet, cable routers, panel covers) that no one has 3D models of for 3D printing. We desperately need someone with the skills and hardware to 3D scan or model these items for our community. Clearly not me though.

      Yeah, there’s a lot more parts to re-engineer, but I’m impressed with how many do exist.

    When using hot air to remove caps, why don't you put flux down first?

      Flux helps more for soldering than desoldering. But for really corroded stuff, I like to add flux in the hopes that it will react a little with the oxidized solder a little.

    Engineer, biologist, chemist.. what can't you do?

    Why is a biologist doing hardware repair?

      Why not? 🤣 In reality, I started doing tech YT to use my brain in a different way.
