    Pacman tabletop trace repair

    I knew a guy years agothat would use the trace pen but with a architects erasing shield to help with the smaller size of the traces. Since they look to be almost straight in the photo it probably worth giving it a try. Repaired a cracked 1541 board after I dropped it on the floor.

    How to bring back original color of plastic panel on old PCs
