Refurbishing the BBC Master 128

In this video, I work on refurbishing the old BBC Master 128. This involved thoroughly cleaning the computer, getting the keyboard fully working (no easy feat) and getting the system booting the BBC Master welcome disk. It was a journey but the payoff feels great. Part 1: https://youtu.be/MS_KFcSZaLs Part 2: This part!
