Scrapped Amiga Boards

Loedown · 22 March 2013, 13:20

If anyone has any Amiga boards that are especially corroded and you've taken all the useful parts off then I would like them, I'll pay for postage but nothing for the boards, so I really want the dregs.

This is to do with my cleaning thread in Hardware/Support.

Cheers

If you don't find any, I guess you could probably find some other old electronics. Pour some weak acid on it, like citric acid and leave it for a week or so, and I'm sure it'll be due for a cleaning.

I agree with your thoughts but because it will be Amiga specific I would ideally like some old Amiga boards which are just destroyed, with no hope of resurrection, that way I can tailor a process for Amiga without any nasty surprises in the future, like some form of rot that sets in after a year or similar.

I have a 600 & 1200 mb that's stripped for parts, no leakage damage though.
