Jocki (the guy engaged in repairing the Draftmaster) sent me this link:

I haven't been in the shackspace (our local hackerspace) for weeks, but
I disassembled the housing for the controller board years ago to take
photos of the electronic, but I didn't document the disassembling itself.
I remember that it was not necessary to diassemble it completely to have
a look inside. I think, Jocki can tell you some details.

Jocki is not on the list. So I'd like to redirect the discussion to him
via PM. Is this ok?

regards,
Martin
