Amazing, great work.
This is a work of electronic craftsmanship.
Few technicians entertain this type of reconstruction.
Congratulations. You're an artisan

Cool! I had never heard or seen someone grafting circuit boards.......nice trick. Btw, my grandfather used to do a lot of grafting for flowering and fruit plants. Loved seeing it and more than that, this one.

Brilliant piece of work, John; I never would have thought of doing that.

I have a number of boards from various bits of kit, with either a dead logic side or a seriously blown power side. Unforunately I dont have 2 of the same type [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-ef3015a7-a62b-4da4-a02f-61d1eb5cd41d/contentimage_5F00_4027.png:16:16].

Grafting along the isolation boundary, well done Doc! Have to ask are the black machine screws attaching the transformer to the board steel or nylon?

That’s amazing work with a jigsaw. If you don’t mind my asking - what type of jigsaw and blade are you using?

I like that you have a test jig to functionally verify these boards after repair. Great stuff [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-ef3015a7-a62b-4da4-a02f-61d1eb5cd41d/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16].

Another amazing sample of creatively moving from junk to functional equipment. I am in complete awe of your repair and restoration skills!

This is great, I've never heard or seen anyone do this before...well done.

I guess many boards fail on similar components or sections; you're is more an XOR fault situation [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-ef3015a7-a62b-4da4-a02f-61d1eb5cd41d/contentimage_5F00_938.png:16:16]

Nice job. I would have never though of splicing boards like that. Very cool.

Making a good board out of two broken ones, well done.
