Nephew's PCB Cleaning Disaster
Posted: 15 Jun 2025, 08:12
Alright, funny story for ya, techheads. Last weekend my nephew (who thinks retro means Xbox 360, lol, ffs) asked if he could help me clean up my Pac-Man cabinet restoration. Gave the kid some simple instructions—dust off the PCB carefully, nothing fancy. Well, I turn around for TWO minutes, and find he's grabbed a damp rag and is legit SCRUBBING the circuit board like it's a dang countertop! Nearly had a heart attack, but thank god it dried fine. Lesson learned: don't trust anyone born after 2000 near your vintage arcade stuff. Seriously though, gotta love passing the torch—but maybe with closer supervision next time, eh? Those were the days! ️
