Last night my son found one of our old calculators in a desk and asked if he could take it apart. I said sure, but please take photos of stuff before you disassemble them so you know what it should look like when you put it back together. He scoffed and said, “Dad, there’s photos of everything on the internet.. I can just Google it”. 15 seconds later he accidentally dropped the calculator and all the keys fell out. We then found (to our dismay) that there is NOT a picture of a classic “Aurex EDC-8010” calculator anywhere on the internet.

So after a spending a long while figuring out where all the keys went again (CPT, MAR, SEL MU and COS were especially challenging), here’s a picture for future searchers:

Yes.. I invested an hour of my life fixing functions on a calculator that I doubt anybody will ever use.
