Nice work! Love the Spectrum! Had one as a child and still have a few different speccy models to this day (unfortunately I sold the original one I owned). Those spectrum colours just take me back every time I play a game.

Great machine. Have fun playing the games!

Nice!!! I've got a fried speccy motherboard kicking around that I had been wondering what to do with. Thanks for the content.

im not much of an artist😅😅 i hope i can keep up!

[@BytesNBits]

Give it a go. It's basically cleaning and glueing. I'll upload the background on the bytesnbits.co.uk website. Have fun!

[@markretro3612]

nice, but you put a Z80A where the ULA should be 🤣

[@BytesNBits]

Just as well I wasn't trying to fix it. Still looks good to me.
