Looks to me like you're off to a pretty good start
You should have it finished in no time! Glad to see you decided to keep going on the original board rather than replace it, Its really not that hard to rebuild one of these as you will find out. If you follow all of the instructions in the repair guides you should have no trouble getting it going
With regards to buying replacement boards, i'm the same, i'll ALWAYS try to repair an original board first (unless someone has totally ruined it), and buy a new one as a last resort.
looking forward to seeing how it turns out... Cheers.. Mitch
