Mac Plus restore, Pt. 3
5Hey Retro Community! Here's part 3 of my Mac Plus refurbishing and restoration series for #MARCHintosh!. Today I teardown the keyboard, give it a cleaning, retrobrite the top, fix a small oops moment, and re-assemble it. I then proceed to reassemble the rest of the Mac Plus, correcting an almost show stopping oops moment!
Also make sure to watch the many other fantastic MARCHintosh videos by checking out the playlist:
