Here's the video announcing the winners Sorry @Drake, you didn't get picked by the meanie algorithm :cautious:

wire stripper

Those are cardboard + card components for Star Wars X-wing: the miniatures game. It came from Fantasy Flight Games (now Atomic Mass Games is at the helm) so you better believe there's a ton of components: ship bases, model ships, movement dials, movement templates not shown. Hard game to store.

My YT channel is nearing 200 subs, so I'm announcing a drawing...for a drawing. I'll draw your face in Mac-a-Mug + MacPaint. Check it out!

Blue mat- amazon. I'm sure it can be easily hacked with an Arduino type board and shoved into the mouse serial port, but too many projects!

New milestone, had time to install the pegboard and a small shelf and some lighting. Better view of the corner stuff as well

Side note: if your project name is OffscreenTC6.pi (where 'pi' is the pi character that you can make with ctrl-p) or something easier like OffscreenTC6.pr and your resource file in the same folder as the project file is called OffscreenTC6.pr.rsrc, then you don't need to link your resource...

My one solution will bind them all, in the darkness.

@JDW I'm working on my own slideshow utility with more functions as part of the THINK C group week #2 but I stumbled upon this on Mac Garden. It kinda does the same thing I wanted to do, but limited to Mac Paint files and with less "goodies": PaintFlipper...

In THINK Ref Viewer, in the page named "Keyboard Compatibility" you get the following advice; the cursors first appear with the Mac Plus keyboard (they are not part of the original one). Unless you program for System version before 4.1, you should stick with this above advice. You can use the...

In MSDOS, it's very easy to get a list of files with a restriction in the name, for example its suffix. dir *.txt and you can send the result to an output stream other than the screen, for example, a file dir *.txt > results.txt I already know how to use the olden Macintosh file retrieval...

The next logical blind step would be to just use Symantec THINK C 7? I don't recall dramatic differences between the 2.

There are some Macintosh time management functions that are ideal to use here. TickCount will give you 1/60th resolution timing - not perfect, but works in a pinch, especially if you suspect that your operations are relatively longer than the screen refresh rate. If you need to test bench short...

1) Interrupt functions (InsTime, Vinstall) + timing measurements 2) Offscreen graphics for moving fluid objects with CopyBits, BlockMove, or using a low-memory address for the reserved offscreen whole screen bitmap (only works with earliest compact macs) 3) Sound (square wave synth, 4-tone...

visual on the problem it hangs near the mid point during any copy of any file from any source (CD image, dsk from FloppyEMU, etc). I can't exit out of this dialog, but I can move the cursor and see it moving. This only happens on the Plus, not on any other machine (ie SE/30, etc)

I copied over the exact HDA that was working 100% in my BlueSCSI to my RaSCSI (not the first time I do something like this in the last months) and 'lo and behold, with the Apple Recovery CD, since I had a verifyable win, it mounts in RaSCSI! so: CDROM mounting tests: Mac Plus: BlueSCSI YAY...

The oregon "cd" I had comes from mac garden and is instead an .img file (inside a sit inside a bin) - I forgot about that. RaSCSI seems to pad the file just right to still treat it as a CD. Thanks to @eric for sorting this out on the Blue/RaSCSI discord server. The archive.org 600 mb hybrid...

Summary: of CD loading capabilities Mac Plus: BlueSCSI NAY.. RaSCSI NAY.. Mac SE/30: BlueSCSI NAY.. RaSCSI YAY! Mac Plus: Accumulating lists of tests on BlueSCSI: RapidCD installs in System 7.0.1, boots but silently doesn't mount CD10_Oregontrail.iso. Apple CDROM driver (patched) 5.3.1...

No matter what already made HDA file that allegedly works for mac plus, I mount it, boot with it but can't copy even small files to it. It just freezes at the midpoint. I can't bring the patched CDROM extension to @Mac84 HDA file he shared on Macintosh Garden here...
