Okay, Keith. My brother had one in like new condition he still uses but I went ahead and tore into it anyway 'cause I thought he'd really like all the goodies inside. I ran into some kind of glitch, though. Maybe I had the wrong brand? I couldn't find a single thing that was shown in the video, and now I can't get it back together...

First off, this is not true! Your VCR does not have those things in them.
