Commodore SX-64 Restoration - Keys and CRTs | Trash to Treasure (pt2)
About this video
The Commodore SX-64's built-in CRT and its keyboard are tackled in part two of The Retro Collective's Trash to Treasure restoration series, with part three still to come.
Good to know: The CRT and flyback hold a high voltage charge after unplugging. A knocked or cracked tube can implode, so protect your eyes and never lift it by the neck. Mains voltage inside. Soldering brings burns, fumes and lead.
Why watch it
Begin with part one, linked under the video, since this is part two of Trash to Treasure. The SX-64 puts monitor and keyboard in one case, which is why a CRT and keys share an episode.
