    Hey, would you be able to repair my PS2 slim model? The disc drive won't spin discs and I can't find a single soul to do it. The one guy that decided he'd contact me back, said it would cost me 150 to repair it!!! That's way more than I paid for the unit. Please contact me! Thank you 😊

    Nicely done, as usual. But, I must point out that the USB mod could have been a lot easier by simply removing the small PCB from the adapter, replacing its USB cable with the longer one, and soldering its PS/2 pads to the keyboard's PCB. You could have used the original strain-relief clip, too.

    I recently dug my old N64 out of storage (15+ years) and the blue controller, despite having the tightest joystick of the four, was pretty grimy, especially the d-pad. I didn't do a take-apart cleaning but gave it a through scrub with isopropyl alcohol and a soft-bristle toothbrush. Might take a look inside when my Kitsch-Best replacement parts arrive.

    Here is a great tip to someone who would want to remove this old thermal paste with no hassle. Instead of using alcohol try brake cleaner it will remove it within seconds. I swear it works 1000 times better than alcohol. Even at those old fat xboxes were thermal paste is more like glue, brake cleaner just disintegrates it.
