Recapping a 3000 is relatively easy. Battery corrosion repair is not. I've done a lot of repair on boards like this, and depending on the level of corrosion, it may be too far gone. That said, the Amiga stuff is well enough documented that it's possible to make things work that you wouldn't think could be fixed, simply by virtue of being able to know where the traces were supposed to go before they got eaten. Having fixed lots of Amiga and Macintosh boards in various states of damage - you'd be surprised what can be salvaged. But, then, sometimes things are just too far gone to be practical. Battery corrosion sucks to deal with due to the way it alters the solder and makes it so difficult to work with. -Ian On Wed, Jan 11, 2017 at 8:56 AM, Steven Toth via vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vintagecomputerfederation.org> wrote:
Any recommendations for people who might do such a thing in the NJ, NY, CT tri-state area? I wont say money is no object, but I'm happy to pay a reasonable fee.
I need a 3000 recapped also, so I'm following this thread.
