Amiga 600 Restoration Part 2: Floppy Repair and Retro Bright

Описание: Part 2 of restoring my Amiga 600. In which I attempt to fix the floppy drive, and retrobright the case. https://www.pcbway.com - the easy way to PCB, from just $5.

The floppy drive on this A600 (a Panasonic JU-253-043P) doesn't work. At least, it doesn't spin. The heads tick back & forth as you'd expect, but nothing happens when you put a disk in. Hopefully I can find the problem. And since it's the coldest, darkest time of the year, it must be time to do some retrobrighting! So we'll do that too...
