Atari 2600 - Installing a Cap Kit - I made a mistake - Restoration Part 1 - Fix It Friday

In today's video I'm getting round to restoring my Atari 2600, and the first job is performing a cap kit which I got from here - https://www.oldskoolconsoles.com/prod...

This is all leading up to a Part 2 where I install an RGB Mod from Old Skool Consoles too!

This was a bit of a journey, and mistakes were made - I recommend watching ALL the video if you're following along because I'd hate for you to mess up how I did!
