Failed PowerBook 100 Restoration- Weeks of torture and misery

[@priosmithxd]

Nice Video. You tried Hard even though the restoration didn’t turn out as planned, your effort and perseverance were amazing. It’s always a learning experience, and watching your detailed process was fascinating. Looking forward to seeing what you tackle next-there’s always another project around the corner! It was funny when you said the floppy drive was ran over. Who knew a floppy drive could have such a dramatic end? 😂 I guess it was trying to ‘drive’ home the point that retro-brightening can be a real ‘crash’ course! Glad you could still show us the ‘remains’-made for quite the hilarious reveal! 📉🔧

Thank you so much! I definitely learned a lot from this experience and had a fair few laughs in the process. I was very taken aback when the floppy drive was run over. It was an "Is this really happening to me?" moment for sure. I actually already have a few more projects in the works as well! Looking forward to hopefully putting out some more videos like this.

Great video, the only thing i would suggest is to get a little bit better with soldering. Otherwise great work
