7:00 Tip: to avoid pulling off the silkscreen or traces, use the *purple* tape. It's meant for masking off areas of fresh paint, surface dry but not fully cured, so it's less sticky to prevent pulling off the fragile paint layer.
Fantastic video! Always wanted to build an Apple-1 replica, will be following this closely especially as you get into building the case and cassette interface. Keep up the great work, the Apple-1 will add nicely to your collection with the Kembak-1 and Mark-8!
I always found the wrist strap to get in my way when working, so I put it on my ankle and grounded it via a screw on the power outlet, which would attach to an anti static mat as well.
VOLOS created an ASCII Keyboard using an Arduino Nano. During socket installation, I would have used the better PINED Sockets. Those 'slip' sockets will tarnish overtime! --- In my 40+ years as an engineer, I never used a static mat or wrist strap. Never saw the point.
You make good points. I wasn’t using the wrist band either but I sometimes work on sensitive projects and wanted to make sure I didn’t damage anything with static so I got one.
I was gonna say that 666.66 is even because it's evenly divisible by 2, yet I looked it up and apparently fractions and decimals cannot be odd or even. So it's not even an odd number
Beautiful work, and great explanations and debugging.

Interesting. Thanks for the tip!

That's a great idea!

Nice! I plan on creating an authentic-ish schematic.

Do the RC6502 next. Much smaller.
Maybe :-) I try to focus on vintage builds only and the RC6502 is not vintage enough for me. But we’ll see.
