I practiced my #smdsoldering by soldering these #MCL64 #MOS6510 cpu replacements.
I'm starting to get good at this.
I really don't need that many, so let me know if you'd like to have one at a fair price.

It seems I underestimated how much time it would take me to get these done with dayjob and family, but I finally got four #MCL64 ready for testing. I hope they all work.😬

Two #MCL64 almost finished.
I'm still waiting for the correct 10 μF caps.
If you want one, let me know.
I still have parts for two more.

Another #MCL64 soldered. I'm getting better and better at this, only my perfectionism getting in my way.
Think I'm going to sell 5-8 boards plus (crazy-)shipping from Switzerland.
Anyone interested, let me know.

It's alive! It's alive!
The #MCL64 actually works.
This is one of those rare occsions where something works on the first try.🥳
A modern replacement for the #MOS6510.
All credits go to Ted Fried👍, it was huge fun building it.

Some good progress on the #MCL64 board.
Didn't expect the drag-soldering to be that easy, but even an expired Amtech flux did the trick.

PCBs for the #MCL64 have arrived.
Soldering those tiny logic chips is going to be a challenge, to say the least.
I will see if my drag-soldering skills are up to the task.😬
