Chatting with my dad about his old TV repair shop made me miss schematics

He said 'We used to fix things with a meter and a brain, now you just swap a board.' It's true, but I still keep the old Heathkit manuals for my bench. Anyone else hold onto paper service guides for the nostalgia?

Oh man, I totally get that... my dad's old schematic folders are falling apart but I can't toss them. Good call on the folder vs binder thing, @robin_schmidt57, mine are a mess of loose paper now.

Kept my grandpa's radio schematics in a binder.

Isn't that a schematic folder, not a binder?
