In his latest upload, Chris Edwards brings viewers along for another behind-the-scenes session in the workshop—this time with an Amiga 3000 on the bench. This particular machine came in as part of a trade, and it’s more than just another fix-up job. Chris has his eye on something in return: an A3070 tape drive he needs to complete the UX setup for an earlier Amiga repair that didn’t quite go as planned after recapping.
As always, the video walks through the troubleshooting process in real time, complete with Chris’s usual commentary and a few light grumbles when things don’t behave. The repair is equal parts diagnostic work and careful inspection, and that’s where one new addition to the lab really shines: a freshly unboxed JOYALENSE 4K microscope. Chris takes a moment to give it a spin, offering viewers a first look at how it performs under real conditions. Spoiler alert—it’s crisp.
Between the trade, the hardware quirks, and some new gear in action, this video’s got a bit of everything.
