    Site for NeXTStep software?

    I can run something like baby ftp but it's the cubes internal setting I couldn't get around. I'm completely unfamiliar with next step and honestly quite novice with networking.

    Macintosh LC 575 “Mystic” logic board recap, install into Color Classic II chassis

    I have them listed in the trading section for $1, albeit they are just cr2032 holders meant to slot between 1/2AA holders in compacts, LCs etc. And from your detailed explainations I can easily see how my efforts to add one to a 575 board may be silly 😥

    Macintosh LC 575 “Mystic” logic board recap, install into Color Classic II chassis

    Soldering temperature

    I work 350 on Fx888D and honestly never find I need more. Using a bevel tip for pad clean ups and an angled point the rest of the time but that's just preference. This can all be subjective too given the solder composition

    Solder Paste/Flux Syringe Gun

    Folks, in consideration of flux applicators I've come up with this device. As you can see the pressure manually fed into the container is perfectly mixed and dispensed by the air in Bruce's head!
