Hello, I'm Brazilian, founder of APMIDIAS, I've been working with electronics for many years, it's my passion, I hope I can help you and that you can help me too!!
Hello, I am Neptune in North East, TN.
After 20 years in Auto industry, and not being paid well after becoming an expert in my field, I've sold everything I own, Tools and all.. and have begin buying equipment. Although I have little money and even smaller resources I'm working my butt off to try and make something that belongs to me, and I can help people with. I'm doing this out of my bedroom, but so far people don't seem to mind that at all because either their are no repair shops here or they get scammed, or worst it comes back more broken than before, if they don't run off and steal peoples stuff instead..
I'm trying to get "Open Board View" working on Linux or Windows without success (Anyone know how to simply open the program please let me know =)
I've been repairing things the hard way apparently.. by hand drawing schematics and diagrams and don't know how to use board view stuff yet.
Anyway, anyone in the North East, TN area that has soldering equipment for sale (especially fume extraction!!), or can help a new Tech out in any way let me know. I'm kind of on an island out here, without much direction, resources or guidance, and as far as I know I'm the only Repair Tech/PC Builder etc etc.. of my type here. They're are shops but they don't go past very basic stuff, and won't even touch a soldering iron or Hot Air Station.
Struggling with the overwhelming cost of equipment but I am coming into work with what little I can do until I get more Diagnostic/Rework Tools together, but I've yet to break anything or take a job I couldn't fix yet. Was doing CPU Socket swaps, DIE swaps etc.. Until my 8280 Heater died, but I hope to replace it when I can.
I hope to try and help anyone starting out, with advice on buying equipment on a budget because you are gonna be buying from China, and it's super easy to get ripped off, I've experienced the Good and the down right Scam, of buying soldering stuff as of late, so if I can give any advice I'll gladly do so, just ask.
That's why I'm here.. Take Care.
Recently started repairing just about everything electronic as a hobby and at work. This has lead me here more than once to get solutions to laptop issues. Today I needed a bios so I got it here.
I hope to learn a lot more here than I already have, cheers.
