Adrians Digital Basement ][ | Tinning corroded pins on the trash-picked CGA card @adriansdigitalbasement2 | Uploaded June 2024 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
I recently found a corroded IBM CGA card in a scrap pile and brought it back to life using some chemicals to remove corrosion. I than movidied the card with some hacks to see if I could speed it up. Now it's time to try to make sure this card lasts in the long run. We can't leave exposed copper on the edge connector or it'll just corroded again. Time to fix that!
