I use a HP media laptop that had a broke screen as a Nas, it has two HD´s of 1TB and boot from a SD card in a USB reader with OMV. Works good, connected to my network with a cat cable, just fire it up and ready.
set me back about $150 just fixing the backlight and swapping the SSD off of a water damaged 13-inch MacBook Pro from early 2015 that I was given for free from a family friend. this is a scenario where you’re best off individually selling off what’s usable for parts, and it’s a damn good thing the motherboard counts as one
For soldering I would use a sponge next time to clean the tip, works wayyyy better than wool or sandpaper imo

I learned the hard way myself that you never, _ever_ use sandpaper, wool, or any other abrasives on the soldering tip. It will destroy the protective layer in the tip, cause it to oxidize with the heat, and the solder will never stick to it properly again

You'll have to buy a new tip after sanding it as it has layers of iron and nickel that you would have removed. When you sand these off, the copper underneath oxidizes and makes soldering much more difficult.
@TMHedgehog
Жыл бұрын
I've been sanding the tip on my iron the way shown in the video for some time now, my trick to prevent the oxidation is just to tin the tip with solder as quickly as it's up to temperature. Once it's evenly coated with a layer of tin, it won't oxidise again until it needs sanding again.

I love doing things like this. There's so much cool tech from 6-10 years ago that I always wanted to play around with but could never justify the cost. Finding broken devices or those needing minor repairs a few years later and fixing them up is a great way to learn new things and get an opportunity to mess around with cool devices without breaking the bank.

Congratulations on getting those caps back on as well as you did. The Macbook boards are notoriously good at consuming heat which is why we use hot-air rework stations to really get the parts reflowed nicely. Wave hello if you need more parts here in Australia; I'm in the process of decomissioning a lot of 2012~2013 era or older machines; it's just not viable/economical for me to repair them any more given that I cannot gaurantee other faults won't pop up 6 weeks later after the customer gets their machine back.

Excellent restoration project bro, well done! You r real example of the trip R approach especially the Reuse "R" - 1. Reduce, 2. Reuse, 3. Recycle👍
Just a tip for soldering. A thinner tip doesn't always help and usually makes it even harder to solder, especially since it can't retain the heat as much. large tips are better even for small parts. Heating up the solder pad with the component in place hot enough and then dab a bit of solder is all you need. Flux helps clean and distribute this heat too.

Since you led with the $25 for the broken laptop, it would be nice to know how much you spent of ALL of the parts that it took to repair it. There is also the issue of labor: that represents a cost as well, so how many hours did this take. I confess that I did a similar thing, taking my son’s IBM Thinkpad laptop where the basic chips had burned up (leaving the machine running all the time with those terrible small fans), and my daughters Thinkpad laptop, with a monitor that had burned up as well, and took them apart and combined the working components into a machine that I ran Ubuntu Linux on for some years. My son looked at me when the thing was finished and admonished me, that for all of the time that I put into repairing it, I could have gone out and bought a NEW (cheap) wintel laptop for less that the imputed cost of my labor. “But!” I told him, “I wouldn’t know how they built these if I just tossed them!” LOL

The Pinecil is okay. It's cheap, heats up quickly, but either has poor thermal mass or I'm bad at transferring heat to joints I'm (de)soldering. As for charging, whenever I use it with my USB-C phone chargers, the Pinecil shuts off heat because it's not getting enough power, and I had to run a Pinecil IronOS firmware update to make the MacBook Air chargers not cut off its power every 5 seconds.
I have a late 2013 model with the GT750M. I got the machine with a broken screen for 200 and spent another 200 for a replacement. It works, but it has pretty heavy image retention and visible dead pixels. I'm a little disappointed, those screens are really hard to find and I feel THAT close to having my dream laptop, but the dead pixels especially hold back my enjoyment a little bit
Thank you for a great by video. It is certainly refreshing (to say the least) to come across a video where the creator is not wasting the first 30+ seconds begging viewers to subscribe and give a thumbs-up. In addition, all of the audio is purposeful, without any irrelevant info nor annoying, useless anecdotes and vernacular being used. You are straight, to the point, and pleasant. I chuckled out loud when you said, "...but thankfully, I like cleaning computers!". Cheers for a job well done, mate! G'day!
I would have just got a 3D printed case to put the mainboard in and run it as a desktop. Amazing that it still worked.
I recently checked out the old 90's laptop i have and i saw two files, meant for business probably, and also Norton Commander and eTeacher, which was used to translate stuff, for BASIC or something. That laptop runs MS-DOS 6.22 with Windows 3.11 for Workgroups, very neat indeed!

Okay, I have two questions... Number one, Which basically follows up on two. But, Why didn't you just put the good battery and a new SSD into the parts MacBook you bought? And when the board fell onto the ground, Why did you repair the broken board when you had a perfect one?

Here in the US a few months ago I found a 70 watt T-12 solder station with 3 tips for 20 usd and there was another offer on 5 extra tips for around 10 usd on amazon. The station was a "handskit" brand and I did have to bend the tabs on the T-12 handle for a proper connection with the changeable tips but it is instant heat and can maintain it for longer periods.
