[pics] 4,700 AXIAL CAP REPLACEMENT
A few more pics from this evening - managed to find some time to do atari stuff :) This is the cap replacement kit for the big cap that lives on FM and STe boards (though interestingly, not on MEGAs, it's a different shape on those) Again, dont be put off by the fact it needs soldering, a methodical...

Hi All, some new pics on building up the STe switcher, just to show how easy it is, in case anyone is putting off ordering one due to soldering worries :) pics were taken with a 'go pro' cheap knockoff I'm experimenting with, so not the best quality, but there are better pics I did on another build ...

Re: Floppy header pinout - loose pin
Well, this is 'on hold' for now as i dun fucked up. Looking closley at the WD chip I noticed one of the pins was broken off at the chip, not sure when it happened, but I have a spare, so I desoldered it by snipping the pins then heating the stubs and lifting them off, like usual, but for some reason...
