Working with this microscope has been fantastic! 🔬It's been especially useful for checking for lifted traces and the condition of the ribbon cables. Love the microscope, thanks Andonstar!

New addition to my workshop: a Bambu Lab X1 Carbon! 🎉 With this 3D printer I can create even more detailed and colorful projects. Here's a few Space Invaders characters I've already printed...my space has officially been invaded! 👾 Who remembers battling these pixelated aliens?

Throwback to my days at the C3 Hobby show in Tokyo! This event was one of Japan's largest character and hobby conventions, I always loved these kinds of fairs. During my time in Tokyo my parents would always take me there! 🎌 Still rocking the same bangs all these years later lol

Here’s my Spectravideo 318, one of the early MSX-compatible machines (almost)! It was part of an early push to create a universal computing standard but it ended up as a unique piece of tech history. It’s like the quirky cousin of the MSX family, still cool and full of character!

I'm still bummed that I couldn't fix this Game Boy Pocket!😓I'm on the hunt for a cheap replacement screen, hopefully I'll find one soon! Has anyone ever successfully restored ribbon cables? I've tried using the soldering iron, but the connections seem too damaged!🔧

Check out my new microscope, this time with autofocus! Ever since I started using it for repairs, I can’t live without it 🔧and the autofocus is such a game-changer! 🔍 Guess what repair I’ll be using it for next?
