Data General Dasher Terminal CRT Repair

Hello!

In this video I had a to take a detour from my planned projects to fix the Dasher. It had been acting squirrely for a while but I was kicking the can on a deeper restoration until some other projects were done, but it had other plans. It was such a difficult problem to solve that for a while I was really stumped and not even sure I was going to be able to repair it at times.

I went with the scripted summary approach on this one again after the last video turned out so well with it and I definitely think it was the right call again. This really was a LOT of work to summarize in this video and it would have been way to long to be enjoyable if I had just edited what I had shot. There's going to be one more like this again right after this because this hardware really coming back to life kicking and screaming!

Shelby-YOU DA MAN!! Holy cow-what crazy issues-and you SOLVED them! So glad you didn’t have to resort to putting that other display in it. Man-it cleaned up NICE too! Looks brand NEW! Thanks for another great video! PS: I finished making the two piece molds for the on/off knob & the side knobs. I hope to pull my first casts in the next day or so…
