Thanks Mike, really enjoying the teardown, also those knobs look shiny !

Thanks Mike.  Luckily the grime on knobs and body is commonly due to our body oils by touching it; luckily most of such grime we create can easily be washout out with just regular soap and water.  I do the same, soak in soap, to save labor; another item that helps is warm water.  If you have one handy, a burst with ultrasonic cleaner will loosen anything further.

Always good to see a well made device.  The scope is made in Malaysia too isn't it?  It lists for about $12K US, has the price changed markedly in all that time?

Thanks for the show. Makes a change seeing you tear down something you have to put back together afterwards

Think it was about GB£6500 when I bought it about 8 yrs ago, but a year or two later they made 8M RAM and 3yr warranty standard and increased the price.

Thanks for this Mike. Very informative, as is to be expected of your video's.

Yes thanks for the video that was great as usual.

I usually use crushed dishwasher tabs for hard cleaning / soaking. I have not tried washing powder. :-) but will try that next time.

Regarding normal soap: Dishwasher tabs and washing powder contains enzymes that break down organic matter. That is why they usually work better than normal soap.
