It ain’t much but it’s honest work.

Tonight I'm breathing life back into my recently acquired 128k
Still needs a wash and a re-cap and this bad boy will be disappointing future generations for... generations!

Here's another mod, this time with transparent 3D printing filament as a light pipe:
Originally these SNES Jr. (SNS-101) don't have an LED power indicator at all. This simple mod (with my own twist, the light pipe) tidies up what feels like a "missing" feature.
For this console I also removed the tabs on the interior of the cartridge bay. These tabs are added by Nintendo to prevent imported carts from working. I had planned to recap it but when I took the original OEM caps out and measured their Vloss and ESR it was clear they were all high quality caps in excellent condition.
Next up is to brew up my own RGB amplifier mod, which I think will close this project out.

Just got some nice 68000 in the mail 
Very happy with my accomplishments for my first Marchintosh
Finally found why the N64 logic board - which I got a great deal on - wouldn’t start (no sound / video).
two pads (AD6 & AD9) had a break directly where the trace meets the pad. A quick bodge (once you find it) and I’m playing GoldenEye!

When you want to test a RGB mod but don't want to wait for a PCB. Each wire is 0.25mm 
Latest pickup. This IIsi is filthy and stinky but at least it's not battery bombed!
Working on getting Classic Mac Environment working on my Tiger Mac Mini tonight
So....Dual 7457's...overclocked to 1.2GHz @ 1.3v by the infamous herd - will shortly be headed my way for my QS board
Perfection
with some modern filters, you almost can’t tell this is from a QuickTake #MARCHintosh *ok, just kidding - on a real monitor you can definitely tell!
Looks like i'm definitely heading to Cyprus for a week's R&R - where I plan to do as little as humanly possible...and enjoy every second!
