Pretty close…..🍀

Just wondering, will this conversion / adaptation also work similar for a classic II board?

@nanoraptor , Welcome! Now get ready to start cutting and Hacking👍

You can use it anytime you like 👍 English is not my First language….had to look that up🙈 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocratic_Oath Tinkerporactic Oath…..now i get it! So we are tinkerdocters then….🤘🏻

Wow….. what did I do wrong to cause this chaos….? No good looking, well working macs where harmed in any thinkerble way 😇 Whats good about your all comments is that I now know what path to go…thanks for that. @retro01, the CI board is bad, maybe recoverable. But then again it will take a lot...

I believe that I got the switches, and put that inside. The CI board was actually included, but battery did dissolve, and also they took off the cristals (or maybe corroded off) …. So I did clean the board asfar as I could, but dont know if its worth restoring 🙈 It was a freebee, so I did not...

Thanks all for the inspirational comments… Much appreciated! A mac TV or mini mac to build around would be nice also. Good idea! I have a look😇 ……Fear, not @-SE40- you can make it wider on the footprint. Even better, you can mix things up….. Get any Mac II. Cut the front to the correct width...

Via Pinterest i came across this Website… It shows some well performed 3D CAD illustrations. As I have some plastic 630 parts , I figured, why not cut it up and see if this kit fits together….? Well, it does somehow….😇. Now I am wondering if I can extend floppy, multimedia and CD cable...

Looking forward to see where your project is going! 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀

Hi, just jumping in…..😇 When the CRT is gone, there is sooooo much extra space to play with 🍀 My guess for placing the meanwell inside the original sony CR44 PSU is to keep it looking like original. As the CRT is gone, your SE30 isnt original anymore… so why put it inside the CR44 (and make it...

Here someting I found inspiring….. https://uri.cat/projects/modern-retro-terminal/ maybe you appreciate this stuff too?

…… so many projects😇……So many options. Why not flip it up? Like a convertible 🍀 Hinges can then be fabricated much easier. Then you dont have make the backcasing edge smaller……(there where it closes) Looking forward (to) follow your projects. Greetings, Chris.

Well, its not really that dramatic….😇i guess But glad I could help👍 Njoy your vacation!

Hi, thanks a lot! Well, the board slides in from the back Then is locked with the clips. It wont go anywhere anymore and this works really nice. Moving the board backwards /angled could work to create space for a floppydrive, but see no real need for that. For now the original FDD en HDD/CD...

Well, a trial with the cables showed that 10-15 mm underneath on extra space is no problem on the topside and makes it a bit easier on the longer connectors. It all seems to fit pretty neat…👍 Sofar…. Greeting Chris

Ok, thanks a lot for the input. Much appreciated! Then I have to find me Full68040 processor + memory extension lateron. First see to get this setup going…..😇

Same same, pretty much interchangeable through the entire 630-6500/5200-5500 mobo drawer series….. Wondering what was/is the best 68040 and powermac out (of this drawersize) at that time period?

So many options….too many choices👍

These projectors have become realy small these days….✅

Thanks for the compliment! Itx is an easy size to built with. The 6500 is similar sized board as a 630? Vertical mount offers a lot of space. No big holes to cut needed👍 Really something to considder…. greetings Chris.
