Re: HP11c - Swapping Internals Between Two Message #4 Posted by John Robinson on 25 Feb 2010, 7:15 p.m., in response to message #2 by geoff quickfall
I've done heatstake removal and restoration on several 41c units, by using a small flat screw driver to lift the top off the heat stake, such that you remove the surround only, i.e. it's donut shaped, and not shearing off the whole top. Then to restore, I use a hot glue gun, squirt some glue, lick my finger, then press with my finger. The licking is to speed up the glue cooling, and prevent my finger getting burnt :-)
Cheers,
John
