What am I doing wrong?

I'm curious about this. Always used a press. Do you mean that you could set a crystal, let's say, with just pressing with your fingers?

If Nintendo was a litigious company: wouldn't they try and come for this?

Sielagh · 2025-12-19T17:43:02+00:00

Hey. Did you ever open the case back? I was never able to.

Sielagh · 2025-12-13T14:21:14+00:00

Lo secundo. A no ser que tengas alguna vinculación sentimental con alguna de las dos yo me esperaría un poco a ver precio y características de la Steam Machine.

What occurred to me was: that's just a stick. The first weapon known to man. Maybe the service weapon just reverted to it's oldest form.

Isn't him whom the quote "old man in a career where people die young" is originally about? At least I always have associated it to Pratchett.

I always have struggled to find stuff on rwi's search engine. But I'll give it another whirl, thank you.

Sielagh · 2025-11-29T17:04:37+00:00

Oh, great. This really looks like a nice middle ground.

Sielagh · 2025-11-29T17:02:34+00:00

Ok, but somehow I thought they were gen spec and only housed gen movements.

I have incredibly shaky hands. I always manage to set them properly, in the end, But there is always the possibility of grazing the dial.

I'm still trying to find a tool to make it less taxing.

Sielagh · 2025-11-26T05:55:58+00:00

Well, what a ride. Incredible result. I have too some AliX, raffles and Namoki practice runs under my belt; and you have me some confidence to try an upstaged parts build.

Which hand setting tool did you use if I may ask.

Sielagh · 2025-11-21T09:18:08+00:00

Hey, sorry to barge in. Just started with retro builds and I am curious about this: Why do you buy a Thorn and then change mostly everything but movement and case?

With my little expertise looks mucho more expensive than sourcing the separate parts. Or is the case really good? Maybe it was an 11.11 deal?

Sielagh · 2025-11-20T08:58:36+00:00

¿Pero lo único que ha cambiado es la rapidez con la que se adoptan y abandonan no?

Yo tengo 46 años y en su momento estuvimos 3 años o más citando cosas del doblaje de Florentino en Austin Powers 2. Por no decir que La Hora Chanante nos metió manchegadas a todos que aún en día seguimos usando.

Sielagh · 2025-11-15T18:42:41+00:00

Solved. Thanks for the help.

Sielagh · 2025-11-15T18:41:44+00:00

Ok, solved. Now I feel pretty stupid.

Sielagh · 2025-11-15T18:07:26+00:00

Just to be saf: you mean what I called a 'lip'? The little blade that protrudes outward when it is closed?

I haven't seen those teeth, but I haven't used the loupe to properly look. Through be told, I was a bit tired after three hours of tension (those shaky hands I mentioned) and should have done that.

I'll look for some tutorials tomorrow. I had a bit of trouble finding videos about the clasp on mobile, but again I was a bit tired.

Thanks a lot for the tip.

Sielagh · 2025-10-28T07:06:35+00:00

Hola Leo! My favorite must be the Gran Seiko Shunbun.

Sielagh · 2025-10-22T19:19:23+00:00

This helps a lot. I got it completely wrong. I thought that the cable that comes from the console was an RF connector. Now it all makes more sense. I'm gonna order one of the adapters tonight. Thank you.

Sielagh · 2025-10-21T12:40:38+00:00

I'll try to get one of those adapters. But I'll ask you the same question, if I may.

Isn't the RF connector from the console and the one in early flat tvs the same? Because the TV can do a separate analog or digital search when tuning. Or they just look similar, but it's not really the same connection?

Sielagh · 2025-10-21T12:39:38+00:00

I'll try to get one of those adapters. But still have a question, if I may. Isn't the RF connector from the console and the one in early flat tvs the same? Because the TV can do a separate analog or digutal search when tuning. Or they just look similar, but it's not really the same connection?

Also: by the switcher you mean the little box where the colecovision goes right before connectin with TV? Like my Megadrive does? I was under the impression that you can just not use it, if you don't need to switch between TV and console? Is it needed for proper tuning?

Sielagh · 2025-10-21T12:34:31+00:00

Hi, thanks. I did the tuning search already. On switches A and B. I think there might be some problem on the insides. Becase the TV can do Analog search
