Nice to meet you!

I’m Nelson, a hobbyist in Brazil. I currently work with IT for an american company. I have a degree in electrical engineering, and I enjoy repairing old electronics such as VCRs and bringing AV equipment back to life.

Leo’s the reason why I took the dust off my soldering iron after a decade. His enthusiasm made me realize how rewarding it feels to build something durable and reliable while understanding it completely. It sparked in me the joy of learning and building electronics that I thought I had long lost.

I hope we can share and learn a lot from our experiences, and of course, build amazing stuff together!

Walljam- nothing like burning the dust off the old soldering iron to get back at it!
welcome to LBOT

Those VCRs are going to be antiques to the new generation. You should show off some of your repair work if you want :slight_smile:

Nice! I’ve got an old BetaMax player that I’m trying to fix (been sitting in a box now for a couple of years though :frowning: )

Do you have any minidisc players?
