Sharp CE-150: A valiant repair attempt that ends in disaster. What went wrong? What didn't?

Video sponsor: PCBWay: $5 for 2 layer PCBs with 24hr turnaround at https://www.pcbway.com/ I originally did not plan on making a video about this project but right at the end, when I put it all back together, it quit working. The journey from that point was fraught with peril and disappointment. While this story does not have a happy ending a LOT was learned along the way. While I thought about not making this video I think we often learn more from our mistakes, our failures as it were, than from our successes. So, here is the whole sad tale.
