Those precise strokes with the broom. What an amazing technique

The way you masterfully tore apart the screen and gently placed it down at around 7:10 I could really tell how much you care about restorations and preserving the historic ninTendo GameBoy DS Classic Sony.

Finally, an authentic restoration!

It always breaks my heart when I see a poor little stray gameboy in need of a home. Glad you rescued the little guy, I wonder where his mother went. It's nice to see him make a full recovery, he was in pretty bad shape.
