Si le nombre de restaurants qui ont mis la clé sous la porte ces derniers mois est au plus haut, il y a toujours plus d’ouvertures que de fermetures d’établissements. Pourquoi trouve-t-on toujours plus de restos, brasseries, et fast-food dans nos centres-villes ?| Le Télégramme
Now it's finally time for a test run. Will the Sidecar work?| shred.zone
In the second part, the Sidecar is repaired and reassembled.| shred.zone
I was lucky and got hand on a Commodore A1060 "Sidecar". This first part is about the teardown of the Sidecar, and the damage assessment.| shred.zone
I recently got two Competition Pro Mini joysticks. The full-size Competition Pro was probably one of the most famous joysticks back in the 1980s and early 1990s. This model was said to be unbreakable, and was able to withstand even long and intensive gaming sessions. If one of the microswitches eventually failed, it was easy to get a new one from an electronics store and replace it just by using a screwdriver, no soldering required.| shred.zone
In the first part I successfully repaired an Amiga CD32 that got broken due to leaking capacitors and a botched restauration attempt. In this part I replace the laser pickup and calibrate the CD drive.| shred.zone
I found this CD32 for a fair price, and bought it. The optical condition of the case is quite okay. It has some visible scratchmarks. The previous owner tried to fix them, but made it even worse. At that time, I wasn't aware yet that this would be the main theme of the whole restauration.| shred.zone
In the previous part, I refurbished the keyboard of the Amiga 1000. It was in a bad state, and truly deserved to get its own part. Now I will replace the floppy drive with a Centuriontech GOEX on pills floppy simulator, and then put everything back together.| shred.zone
The Amiga 1000 is the jewel of every Amiga collection. I had the lucky chance to get one. Let's refurbish it!| shred.zone
Let's refurbish a handheld game console for a change. This PSP got a shiny new case, and a custom firmware.| shred.zone
