About

Join me as I fumble around the innards of 40-year-old tech. Relax, put your feet up and watch me build and fix stuff. I especially like repairing vintage computers from the 1980's, along with upgrading them with period correct and modern technology. I don't always get it right, but I do have a lot of fun along the way!

Video Description

Restoring and repairing an Amiga 600 ready to sell in the October 19th charity auctions to raise money for the Befriending Scheme. A yellowed case in need of a day in the sun. Some very leaky caps that caused damage requiring replacement pads and bodge wires. And a good result in the end. I hope this goes to a good home! Donate here! https://www.justgiving.com/page/mfmi2024 Charity Details: https://www.morefunmakingit.co.uk/mfmi-charity-2024/ With thanks to: Andrew Searle Colcuz Retro Passion https://www.retropassion.co.uk/ SECOND CHANNEL! https://www.youtube.com/@morefunfixingit Ko-fi page https://ko-fi.com/morefunmakingit Amazon Wishlist https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/I5EGNMXIW5PC?ref_=wl_share Discord Channel https://discord.gg/5fmPMzU More Fun Website https://www.morefunmakingit.co.uk/ My Twitterings can be found here https://twitter.com/morefunmakingit Facebook https://www.facebook.com/MoreFunMakingIt BlueSky https://bsky.app/profile/morefunmakingit.bsky.social Music: https://www.epidemicsound.com/track/vnkjNOOJLO/ Have You Seen My Beach Ball?
