As someone who can’t even solder, it’s fun! Messing with my gameboy color, N64, and Dreamcast, and made me more comfortable screwing around with electronics. Been learning slowly but surely!
- Felger 4y agoI professionally solder about 2 to 3 time a week to replace mainly dead capacitors, broken USB or DC power jack connectors, as well as a few SO*-8 EEPROM chips. Became quite good at it after 20 years. But at the end of the day, prices are on the rise in western europe while personal energy is low. I must admit I'm equally ashamed to not be able to do more and being envious. Still, always a pleasure for a tech guy to scroll through a bonafide geek project. Loved the page of the guy that mapped and memory-injected a WD hdd PCB Marvell's ARM cores to ultimately install its own linux kernel on it.
