This video was surprising. I knew there was such market but it was really interesting to see how the markets work and all the individual pieces and that it's possible to do this manually.
The software came pre installed on the motherboard and from the get go its mostly gathering a big shopping list of iPhone 6s parts. But the way the put the screen together, following instructions and understanding how the wiring go. Really amusing to see him struggle. Great video!
