YAY!! Welcome back, Alex!! You've been missed!! Hope you're doing well!! We need more "better than factory!" work!!

[@NorthridgeFix]

Thank you all. The wound is getting better. More better than factory videos on the way.

[@desnick2316]

@@NorthridgeFix I hope your leg gets better than factory as well

[@robsantiago118]

Better than factory sir

[@ThriftyToolShed]

Awesome repair Alex. Hope the leg is healing well! For the guys out there watching and wanting to try this repair yourself that is a good thing, but stop just a minute. This takes a lot of skill and you need to practice first. Don't just try this on your $1000 board with all your data on it. Alex sells practice boards and you can find some about anywhere. You can most likely take an old DVD player or something out of the closet or junk drawer and practice removing that connector first. If it does not go well then try another and another and another. If it still doesn't go well send your expensive board to the master before trying it!

[@WinjectAi]

Very true words spoken from a wise person! I hope everyone reads this!

[@digi3218]

I just ripped the entanglement connector off my expensive quantum computer but I think I can fix it 😎

[@Dandan-tg6tj]

@@digi3218 Do it! Do it! I need those 10,000 USD I am going to charge for the repair after you mess it up. Just do it! LOL

[@keithmckay-u6p]

Been watching a few of your episodes and learned more than many other board level repair techs in a very short period of time. Network engineering doesn't get anywhere close to this level of detail, so you make my job seem like a cake walk in comparison. Hats off to you sir.

[@Adrian-xh4ul]

Hello, you are an artist and you are good at what you do. Otherwise you are an optimist. From what I've heard and seen in other videos, a brand name repair service would probably simply send this nightmare circuit board back - with the disclaimer - no longer repairable. Instead, you use your skills like a motivated rescue worker in an accident on the highway and do your work with care and motivation to achieve the best possible result. Apart from the price, every customer can be happy with such a high-quality repair these days. Thank you for letting us watch and sharing your techniques and experiences with us. So when you receive a PCB that is in such bad condition, do you never call the customer? Presumably you document your work in the repair video and send the customer the invoice with the repaired board? Very nice to see that you are satisfied with your work. Thanks

[@jonmcfarmer6954]

14:50 I had to close my eyes due to all that UV light exposure. 😂🤣😂 Nice to see you back again.

[@Suresh_Pillai]

Welcome back Alex,!! Hope you are now well recovered from the unfortunate injury. Happy to see you are fixing back the "problems" in queue waiting for you to be back.. :)

[@keithlambell1970]

Amazingly detailed work.

You have the patience of a saint. Theses folks are really making a mess of thing big tme. Seeing just how small some components are is astonishing.

[@Alan-e7i7d]

Great instructions, just completed my first HDMI socket replacement, all now working well. It is worth tinning the solder lugs before fitting to the board as it makes soldering of them much easier. Thank you.

[@skipdog77]

Great job Alex! Hope the leg is better! Super surprised you don’t mail these back to the customers as no fix. It’s impossible to tell everything he/she screwed up.

[@PCBWay]

Welcome back, Alex!

[@wskrrr6874]

The guy who sent that board in didn't do you any favors for sure. Great video, looking forward to more

[@soliddev1086]

Alex, great channel, love the videos. 👍 I've started working with SMD and quickly realized that you really weren't kidding about those components flying into the 9th dimension! I had a good laugh the 1st time it happened when I heard your voice in my head telling me exactly where that component has gone. 😆

[@ronfacciol4904]

Welcome Back Alex ! I missed your regular insightful videos.....

[@haloslayer255]

Glad to see your doing better Alex! Excellent video, I think I'll stick with ps2 related work for the while. This is insanely small. Keep up the excellent work!

[@MrMojolinux]

Alex, as good as you are with electronic fixes, I can tell you are a wonderful human being and family man! Heal up quickly, we need you in tip top shape.

[@Earthling247]

Nice video. Hope your leg is healing up nicely now. ✌️be with you

Welcome back Alex. I hope you feel better. That's the most important. I think my pots on my variable power supply are going South. It is increasingly frustrating to dial in the voltage. Has anyone encounter this?

Alex, unfortunately with you making it look so easy it means people are going to attempt to do these things themselves. On the bright side, it means more work for you ;)

You make everything look so easy. It would take some for hours.. as usual your videos are the best. Say hello to big boss and your nephews..

Beautiful, I've been using the low melt solder since you mentioned it in your videos, it's a game changer, thanks.

[@outseeker]

aww seeing that board, i can imagine being the person who ripped off pads during multiple attempts and tore a full trace off the board like a loose thread :< so nice of you to notice and choose to replace the unreported missing components so it's at least got a chance of working when they put it back together

[@markmaharaj8861]

With the condition of the board and the HDMI ports, I give this about a 5% chance he actually paid for this repair without being take to court.

Very nice work with those wires

[@jurpo6]

this seemed more technical than most fixes. loved it.

[@_CryptoNoob_]

It looks super easy to do when you're watching it on KZbin ahahha. But, even if you have ALL of the proper tools, ie microscope, hot air station, good soldering iron and all the peripherals, if you lack the skills/experience you're probably going to fail lol. I failed my first 3 hdmi port replacements back when I first started, and I had all of the best tools for the job. You just make it look so easy Alex so all these guys Hiroshima their boards trying to replicate your work ehehhe he. Keep up the great work and videos Alex :)

Have you considered livestreaming some of the repairs? It would cut down on the amount of late night editing. Seeing the live flow of your bench would be interesting.

[@jontait1095]

Great job hope the leg injury is healing up

[@GM-dx3dq]

Many ppl will not notice. It's extremly hard to desolder sucha a small component and move it to another board to solder in without firing it to another dimention by squeezing it to hard just for a fracture of a second. I know from my own experience... Same for soldering a tiny wire joint or pad strip. After soldering it in first spot it loves to unsolder and move while soldering another end. Service nightmare. Requires a lot of experience.

Why didn't you expose us to UV light today. Haha. Wonderful video as always.
