    My soldering skills are not "professional", but I get by. If I were to recommend two things... Good tweezers and buying a hot air rework station (350 degrees Celsius) would have helped me with removing and resoldering those tiny resistors (size of a grain of sand!). :ROFLMAO: You don't want...

    https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B0CP784HF1?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details Just an FYI...I had to wet sand the bottom of the heatsink "flatter", since it wasn't totally flush/level when it arrived, what do you expect for $5 Plus, I bought this roll of thermal tape, got lots left! LOL -...

    The project thus far is nearly done. All I have left is to clean and lube the floppy drive, and replace the caps in the power supply unit. CPU Note: The heatsink on the 33mhz CPU gets pretty warm, but not crazy hot of anything. It's a full 68040 and it's native 33mhz. Not overclocked.

    LC 475 RAM weirdness - OS 7.5.5

    LC 475 RAM weirdness - OS 7.5.5

    I want to preface by saying that my general Classic Mac knowledge is relatively limited. This mac - https://68kmla.org/bb/index.php?threads/lc-475-project-upgrades-mods.47687/ With me upgrading my mac to now having 64MB (+4MB on board) instead of the 16MB stick that was there before there, I...
