Wow excellent in death rebuild thread there Laurie, great job. 👏 Yes absolute pet hate (amongst many others), pots and switches directly connected to a pcb board and receiving weight :o This also extends to the power jacks as they get constant abuse with unplugging/plugging in (especially if there’s...

Thank you watching and I’m glad you enjoyed it!
