    When Was The Last Time You Dumpster Dove? :)

    I'm a hobbyist woodworker so I always grab old furniture made from quality hardwoods. I've seen old walnut dressers and tables in the trash before where the wood alone is worth $100 or more. I take it apart and I've some nice expensive hardwood to make whatever I want. Finding vintage Macs at...

    I forgot to ask, does anyone know which male and female connectors they are? Digikey, Mouser, Amazon?

    Restoring my SE to SE/30 conversion with a noisy fan

    I'm restoring my SE/30 that was an SE conversion and the fan is super noisy. I pulled a quiet fan out of an SE parts machine but I discovered that the noisy fan has wires and the other one has 2 terminals sticking out the back. It looks like the analog board has a place to solder in a fan with...

    No Wonder my SE screen just has a vertical line

    Should I just replace the connectors or should I try to determine the root cause? And if so, how?

    Migrating from SCSI2SD v5.2 to BlueSCSI v2

    That's good info Patrick. I didn't realise it worked that way, then again I never researched it either. I have two v5.0x SCSI2SDs but I do prefer BlueSCSI which I also have 2 of. I'm using an internal SCSI2SD for my SE/30. Now that I have it working well I'm just gonna leave it but I'll probably...

    Disk Jockey v3 for macOS is out!

    This is great, thank you! I do have a comment and a question; 1. On the driver sidebar it says about replacing the diver "click the button below" but the button is on top. 2. When I click the button, Disk Jockey quits with the attached error. Am I doing something wrong here?

    Just seeing this, I would be interested in a clear SE/30 case and a clear mouse case too if he has those.

    Stock CC recapped, screen goes purple

    Thanks Eric, I just bought a BluSCSI with the wi-fi board from Joe's Museum that i'm gonna put in there to replace the whining spin drive before it dies. I read on the "other" board to check the connectors from the yoke as well. When it's fixed I'll post back what I think it was.

    Migrating from SCSI2SD v5.2 to BlueSCSI v2

    So I take it there's no real way to extract an image from a SCSI2SD card, edit mmit and put it back? I couldn't even get a bootable MinivMac image to boot my SE/30. I downloaded the 2GB 6.0.8 image from SavageTaylor, I added software to the image with MinivMac, copied it to the card using balena...

    Nylon alignment tool?

    I'm trying to adjust the alignment on my SE/30 monitor and having a hard time finding the 2.5mm nylon hex key that fits in the monitor adjustment pots on the analog board. Anyone know where they are available? I see the kits on Amazon but they don't appear to a have a hex key and that's really...

    Efficient web-based classic Mac emulator

    I love it. Are there any instructions or a forum? I've tried briefly to get system 7 connected for internet access but it's not obvious. Thank you @mihai!

    Does anyone know what this is?

    I found it in a box with a disassembled IIci PSU. Is it part of the PSU?

    Source for half AA batter holder for an SE?

    I have an SE with the soldered on black battery and I want to convert over to a standard holder. THIS ONE is out of stock, and with the state of supply chains right now it could be months. Does anyone know of another one that would fit? Maybe from Amazon or something where shipping isn't $10?

    SE/30 UE8 replacement

    I ordered a 296-33968-5-ND SN74LS166AD from Digi-key to replace my UE8 chip in my SE/30. When I look at the backorder status, it says March 2023! Wow! Is there another chip that will work? Does anyone have one they want to sell? I can confirm that this chip is too big: 296-SN74LS166ANSRCT-ND...
