    My project today was to repair a six switch 2600, which had a broken joystick port (pin 5 missing) and player 1 difficulty switch.  So, I "borrowed" those parts from a broken 4-port board.  It all works perfectly now, and the next step will be to add a composite mod.  Tools used were a push-button suction desoldering iron and a normal soldering iron.

      It's a light sixer, but you have a good eye.  The innards of the heavy/light are the same.

      Maybe I will start a projects thread.  Maybe at least to go over the tools that work for me and aren't bank breakers.
