Commodore C64 Cleanup

Commodore C64 - Restoration Project #45

I am still swamped with work, both professional and family/home related. This means that my current ongoing projects are not ready for a project video. I decided to dig a bit into the backlog and ended up at the first "postponed" video in the tinkering series: The first C-64 restoration.

When I made the SX-64 video - it's so old that the format is still a bit off and the narration is done in a rather boring voice - I had the idea to get a couple of regular C64s for parts, just in case. Turns out that I didn't need them, and so, after finishing the SX-64, I started with the bread bins too. Since the process was pretty much straight forward, I never came around to edit the project video together. Perfect candidate for a filler project, I'd say!
