Day 1

Day 2, was a little tired

Working on my Retro Switch.

Working on an Atari Jaguar.  Spoilers, someone let the magic smoke out!

A really mixed bag for this video, includes a Sound Blaster card, a Amstrad (!) Mega Drive PC/ISA card, and an Atari Jaguar Un-boxing Repair/mod.

The final video of the Sega Nomad, this has the battery pack build. More annoying plastic cutting and some solder work. I did a little clean up after this video, just added some insulating tape and a backing for the charge board so it does not move.

Working on the Nomad battery pack. Skip this video if you hate high pitched whirring sounds.

Got the Nomad all spiffed up, now just need the missing battery charging circuits.  13 days in transit…from 30 miles away.

Sorry about the microphone pops, will turn down the volume next time and wear a shirt with lapels.  Replaced the A/V port and a cap, very exciting.

For this round of what’s on my workbench, a Sega Nomad with the original screen and modern screen, side by side!
