    A Classic II/LC III laptop/book….

    @Trash80toG4 , thanks for your input on workstrategy’s….👍 There are various ways to approach this “whack” depending on what you are aiming for. In this “case” the design has been done and its only a matter of creating a reproducable enclosure, fitting in time relevant combined with some modern...

    A Classic II/LC III laptop/book….

    My plan is to layout the parts/components into a 3D cad volumemodel that fits the proportions of the model in the picture. The keyboard size gives away Hartmuts model size (as that did prob not change by much). First start is to get all parts & components actually working together. Changing...

    A Classic II/LC III laptop/book….

    Hi there! Tanks for your help sofar, much apreciated! Ive used this Classc II board quite a few years. Indeed, its no racemonster. With 10 Mb workable. It depends also which system version and software is used. Although its merely for fun, speed is not the purpose. (Suggestions are welcome 👍)...

    A Classic II/LC III laptop/book….

    New Project! As I was browsing through Hartmut Eslingers book, “Keep it Simple” I wondered how cool it would be to recreate this laptop bookstyle computer into a working machine. Then (a while back) inspired by Adrian’s youtube video, and how he managed to get a external screen working with...

    A takky Mac…..

    update! I did modify here and there my original trial files, to the initial experience with the plywood prototype. Anyhow-anyway…as a few mentioned here, the main correction is I did level up the base mounting plate by 15 mm That would give cables & connectors more space. Due to that the...

    Compact Mac Video Adapter

    Yes! and so hoping for that should reduce (skip) the analog board section…as this is what is essential for a Classic II laptop version.

    Compact Mac Video Adapter

    @retr01 …. Yes!…..this is the cable that runs between the logic an analog board. Grey - Violet - White At least that is what I have to look into. This is the easier place to connect cables into a Pi. But I have no analog/psu-monitor board and so pick up the signal from the mainboard. At least...

    Compact Mac Video Adapter

    @retr01 …. Its the main power & vid+sound connector on the mainboard ive shown before Here I did also find the schematics for the classicI/II confirming pinlayout to the Analog board-monitor section. I think of making a patch cable loom from my fully functioning CLII so I can experiment with a...

    Compact Mac Video Adapter

    Pico VGA……wow! This would be great as the regular pi’s seem hard to get. Also the smaller size is a big plus for Hartmut’s laptop. So any pico pi will do? Sounds almost to good to be true🍀 Ive found this list for the classic I and II 14 pin connector… Would I be making connection directly...

    Flower Power SE Idea Assistance

    Do not wonder, as it takes time, it can become costly quickly. Maybe there is an Art-educational institute in your location? Or a amateur art group…. Ask around there for someone (good at Airbrush) who is in need for a project. This way they have a life client, and can cover the materials &...

    630 mini?

    Yes indeed, that great stuff, but its not sold here locally…… I just glue it together like a plastic modelkit, then melt and press in loose staples for reinforcement. The final step is adding minimal bondo and recreating the surface texture and airbrushing it to original.

    Flower Power SE Idea Assistance

    Hey Jajan 547, My guess that this idea originates from the Imac A stickerwrap would be the comfortabele way. Works well on cars, do not know how the vinyl copes with sharp edges of the classic case. The other form is dipping, but leaves limited control over the result. It gives a nicer result...
