    We have a thread for PLA color - how about Resins for best matching Platinum and Beige Macs

    I just did a cursory search for pantone 405nm resins and I regret to say there were zero relevant results. I would definitely be interested to hear if anyone else has more information.

    M0110 Keyboard Dead - Ideas?

    Have you ever confirmed the Macs port? After that - have you confirmed power is making it to the keyboard side when it’s plugged in? IIRC the outer pins are GND and 5v. Inner two are clock and data. if you have an oscilloscope or logic analyzer it’s trivial to probe clock and data on the...

    Mac Plus floppy drive not happy

    They're 3D printed by @Kay K.M.Mods. Extremely high quality! My Shapeways gears (regular) (premium) are a decent alternative if MacEffects is out of stock. Kay's gears higher quality as demonstrated in this thread. Dozens (possibly even hundreds at this point) of people have used my gear and...

    68000 CPU interface replacement for Killy Klip - Photos of alternatives wanted

    I was lucky and could submit a few prototypes to JLC before they enforced minimum PCB size guidelines. I used the thinnest board and made "tongs" that came down to touch the sides of the legs, held in place with a 3D printed frame. My results weren't promising but perhaps there is a better...

    I made a CloneyClip, but it's sort of a pain in the butt.

    Flashing green light only sign of life

    Nah, that’s the expansion slot that’s empty. It’s typically empty (expansions are sort of rare). The ROM is present but “camouflages” in with the rest of the board … if you’re not looking closely enough like me!

    Here's an example of the Электроника Б6-03 — Elektronika B6-03 Digital LCD watch. This particular model, among three others, has arrived from Ukraine. It's the first of the three I've purchased which was in good enough condition to bring back to life. The other two were "battery bombed"...

    Mac Mini G4 unstable

    If it's an endeavor you're willing to undertake... a copper shim with thermal paste will be significantly more performant than a heat pad.

    Macintosh 128k w/ 4MB & SCSI expansion - flaky

    maybe try booting with no expansion RAM and the. Half of the RAM - and switch the sticks for the other half. You may need to change jumper settings to support none / half ram. edit: I’m on mobile, about to head out so my message is a bit short -
