Following up my pretty disastrous 'Let's build an Atari ST accelerator' video (youtu.be/PlojawkgNAM). We're pretty much feature complete now so time to demonstrate what our monstrosity can do, including a full FrontBench run through.
Keep an eye on my Github for source releases, once I've been able to redesign the board to fit properly!

![[B-Roll] External PSU: cable resistance tests
The first cable I built in my External PSU video wouldnt power my ST.
Did I get my calculations wrong? Is it a bad cable? Was someting else the problem? Was it all three?
