    New platinum filament...

    I'm using a Bambu Lab A1, but it's fully enclosed. I generally use the BambuStudio slicer, but I'm open to using something else like OrcaSlicer. The printer is on the most up to date firmware version 01.06.00.00, but I am still using version 1.xxx of BambuStudio. To be honest, I don't have a ton...

    Got My Transparent Inner Bezel From MacEffects Installed

    I guess the obvious is there is no active cooling, so my personal concern is trying to extend it's life, more specifically the flybacks lifespan, but I definitely went overkill with 4 fans. Is it necessary? Probably not, I've seen discussion over the years online about this, and I got the idea...

    New platinum filament...

    Does anyone have any recommendations for settings when printing with this filament? This is the first time I've used this brand, and it's my most difficult filament to print with. I've got it mostly figured out, but my prints with it are either under extruded or over extruded. Anyone have any...

    Got My Transparent Inner Bezel From MacEffects Installed

    I am not using anything to reduce the RPM's. I used 4 because about a quarter of each fan is blocked just due to the amount of space available and the shape of top plastic. I don't have the proper tools to do any measurements. I tried downloading a couple apps to measure the difference from...

    Got My Transparent Inner Bezel From MacEffects Installed

    I updated the LED mods a bit to tone down the brightness. I took some photos of the wiring and internals. I have 4 12V Noctua 40mm x 20mm exhaust fans. The LED is 12V, and everything is custom wired together to run off the 12V molex that powers the HDD.

    Got My Transparent Inner Bezel From MacEffects Installed

    Got my transparent inner bezel installed from maceffects. Added a LED under the apple, and added a led to the mouse. Not happy with the keyboard, I'm going to revise the keyboard and probably remove the leds from the keyboard.

    Possible To Hide Partition From Desktop In Classic Mac OS 8.1 / 7.6.1 / 7.5.5?

    Just curious if it is possible to hide a partition from the desktop, or even an entire drive on classic Mac OS. Either 8.1, 7.6.1, or 7.5.5? I have an alias to a folder on the drive, but I want to hide the drive from my desktop just to clean up the desktop.

    Color Classic Mystic Back Panel Model

    Thanks, I appreciate it! I just wanted to share the work in case anyone else finds it helpful for their own project. I open sourced everything, so now there are back panel models that can be easily modified to suit whatever you need, and I made a bunch of revisions for people that aren't...

    Color Classic Mystic Back Panel Model

    I used this SD card extension specifically, but it is a bit long, and probably does not need to be that long...

    Color Classic Mystic Back Panel Model

    I posted this on 68kmla a few months back, but I've finally got around to revising the model and open sourcing it. I just wanted to share for anyone that this might be useful for. Tinkerdifferent seems to be a little more active for compact mac conversation. I couldn't find what I wanted in a...

    FloppyEMU IDC20 Connector Pin Out Help

    Looking for some help with the pinout of the IDC20 connector on the FloppyEMU / Macintosh LC575. I am setting up a FlippyFloppy from the magical Kay Koba, but I want to use a DB19 connector instead of the IDC20 cable. This is purely for aesthetic, and completely form over function. I'll be...

    High resistance on Spicy O Clock

    I'm looking for some help with the spicy o clock. I just received it in the mail recently and when I attempt to adjust the potentiometer, I'm getting resistance measurements that are way over the appropriate range. I'm still learning about electronics, so I'm maybe missing something or doing...
