Making a perfect Amiga 500 from salvaged parts and amazing donations - Part 2!
This time I put right a few annoying things from the first part of this build. The green keyboard PCB and stood out like a sore thumb, being visible right at the top of the machine through the lovely transparent case! As well as that I replaced the green trapdoor memory expansion with a nice purple one, and added a lovely transparent Retroradionics Arcader joystick to the mix.
There is a bit more to do to this. But the bulk of the work is now complete. And the next thing to do with this machine is sell it to raise money for The Befriending Scheme!
October the 19th will be the final day of the auctions. Keep an eye on this and the second channel @morefunretro2 for details on the sales. Another good place to watch is morefunmakingit.co.uk where soon all of the auction items will be listed with links for you to get involved!
