recapping

You'd be wrong about that. Through the years I've read many people talk about what things they THINK need recapping and what they don't. Most of that goes beyond their own personal machine usage experience and also ties in with what they read online, or more accurately, what they DON'T read...

So I have been recapping my old macs and some gaming consoles following Bruce Rayne’s amazing videos ! For some time in soldering jobs I have been using : Ceramic Fiber Insulation Blanket Paper Sheet for Wood Stoves/Inserts 610×300×1mm to protect heat sensitive components around the components...

Hello! I have a Macintosh Plus and as you recommended me, I'm gonna recap the analog board. I'm trying to buy them in local shops (digikey,mouser, etc, have like +20€ shipping only, to Spain). But I'm having some trouble finding some specific capacitors. For some capacitors, can I buy them with...

Greetings all. I recently got a Q700 case with the motherboard and the PSU from a Quadra 650. The caps in the PSU looked really toasted from a hard life with a million hours in at least soft-power-"on". I couldn't find a parts list for the caps in this specific one, so I thought I'd do the...

Although I've been a Mac fan since 1984, I'm still new to the Apple II. But my recent purchase of an Apple IIe Card & Y-cable for my Macintosh Color Classic Mystic has been a fun learning experience. I made this video showing how to recap the card and to provide a general overview of the...

I bought a dead Mac 128k a while ago and now finally getting around to recapping it. It's been pretty straightforward, except for one capacitor. Noticed that someone added a 100ohm resistor on the negative side of the C6 capacitor on the analog board. Was curious if anyone knew what this was for?

Since it's Thanksgiving in the US today, I should express my thanks for Panasonic's low-ESR OS-CON capacitors. They're the ideal choice when recapping of the LC575 "Mystic" motherboard, especially when you upgrade the CPU and/or overclock. Enjoy that turkey, friends! 🦃
