Finally added an eMac to my collection... time to model and build miniatures at 48 (not printed yet) and 22 percent (photo side by side). Old speakers from an old 2006-2008 iMac will work great for the 48 percent size. Experimenting with speaker grille hole sizes.

You may have to disassemble those original DVD drives and lubricate/revive the rubber roller. Or abandon them and install a slimline slot load from an old iMac. See this thread.

Here is a maintenance manual. It does not sound like yours are "flashes" as they are defined as 1/4 second. If it is slow pulsing, not sure what that could be. Two Flashes: No memory is installed or detected. Troubleshooting: Make sure the RAM is securely in its slots. If no memory is...

I have a beige G3 Desktop. Stock CPU was a 266MHz G3. I found a G4 400-500MHz zif in a Blue & White G3 that would not boot (Free Geek project purchase). I was able to get the G4 to 533MHz and it is stable. It does get quite warm, so I thought it would be best to add some active cooling. I...

These from eBay work great, exact fit.

Stopped by Free Geek Minneapolis last week and found this Quicksilver $10 project. Labeled "Won't boot to any external media, For parts / project HDD, RAM removed $10" I can't say no, so I took it home. I threw in a single 256MB DIMM and a mechanical hard drive from another old G4 and powered...

Yes. You may have to make some adapters to align the mount holes. I have mounted a SATA slot load thin drive from an aluminum iMac into my cube with a SATA to IDE adapter. if you have a 3D printer, see attachment for slimline/laptop style slot load drive.

I am still working on the files, but I have printed the 7600 (should be the same as 7300?). And if you need the internal kickstand (Chassis Stand), I have that too!

Thanks so much! I will update my G3 files to add that hook on the rear corner (where mine was missing).

My 3D printer is an Ender 3 Pro, so limited to 8x8x8 inches. I had to split this in two and add a seam. I was pondering gluing them together, but after printing I remembered that I have some threaded inserts, or I could use nuts. I may just soldering iron in some knurled inserts. I printed...

Found this in some documentation...

The iMac G4s use a regular Desktop DIMM internal on the logic board, and a SODIMM that is "User Accessible" by removing the bottom base plate cover.

Just trying this out now... Some suggestions: 1. Optional interface colors. When in light mode in system preferences, I get black text on dark gray which is very hard to read. To get the version I see in the screen shots here, I have to go to Dark Mode in system preferences. Personally, I am...

This is my best guess... going to print and see how they fit. PM7600 G3 Desktop top views PM7600 G3 Desktop
