Hardware repair services
Hi,
Please post below if you are willing to provide hardware repair services for other forum members. Please state: - Your location - Examples of repairs you can provide (ranging from easy to the most difficult you feel you can handle) Any discussion will be deleted, this is also not a feedback thread. Edit: meh, I didn't prune the discussion and it's become a chatting thread since, so unsticking. Last edited by Jope; 07 December 2021 at 12:25. |

Good idea for a sticky!
I'm in Glasgow, and I can do basic component replacement (such as recapping or damaged trace repair), basic fault finding and modding. Can also assist creating setups and installations with drives over 4GB, SCSI setups etc. |

I'm near Durham and can do most solder work, probably anything that would be found in an Amiga. I also have a few programmers so can program various chips, including flashing gotek drives.
I don't get a lot of free time, especially Monday-Friday, but could fit repair jobs in if you're stuck. |

I am located in Vienna / Austria, and can do any Commodore 8-bit (C64, C128, Plus/4, etc.) as well as Amiga 500/500+ repairs, including disc drives (re-alignment, mechanical issues).
Only have the most common spareparts available. If some chip has to be replaced, you might need to provide it from another source. No euipment for SMD soldering, so no repairs for A-600/1200/4000. Unfortunately only limited time because of two young kids.... |

Former Tech who worked for Comspec. I also started to repair LCD Monitors and TVs. I will do repairs on older MACs, PowerPCs and PowerBooks if parts available.

my name is Viktor, i'm from Germany, Bavaria.
can do most solder work SMD included, probably anything that would be found in retro computers. Have all necessary tools like microscope, hot air soldering station, preheater, oscilloscope, etc. I also have a huge stock of spare parts for Atari, Amstrad, Commodore, Sinclair, and some other models. Also have few programmers here, so can program various chips, including flashing gotek drives. Have also assembled many hobby projects for amigas like IDE, Zorro II & Terrible Fire 530, so i am able to repair & mod Your computers in one hit. I don't get a lot of free time, especially Monday-Friday, but could do repair jobs at weekends. regards, Viktor |
