Hello,
I disassembled it and cleaned it. I tried also to lubricate, but the mechanism seems quite simple and I didn't see clearly where could be friction.
I'll check the springs...
Txs!
Hello,
my ZIP 100 drive almost never ejects the disc. If I help pulling the disk slightly while ejecting, it will eject it... it's like it doesn't have strength to do it itself.
Is this a common problem?
Really cool seeing this improvement.
Congratulations for the result of such a hard work.
This clearly sets a difference on the easiness for self-making it... Do you plan to release the Gerber's and the component placement files to order the boards with the SMD components in-place, like in the...
Thanks!
I don’t have the skills or tools to work properly the wood…
This case was made by a guy I know in Spain that is a retrocomputing hobbyist, that happens to work as carpenter. He told me he can make others.
Little update on my Apple 1 build...
Now I got this nice/ugly case and working to finish my project with it:
The keyboard I made is already fitted, now doing the rest.
Hey there,
I watched this video from Classic Mac Gaming and I think this could spark some new project.
I'm basically aiming to develop something that can:
- Be developed with CodeWarrior, because I'm into that now
- 68K
- Work at least in System 7, but ideally also in System 6
- Probably only...
I got mine from Aliexpress and they worked fine. In the pack the chips had different marking, ones Germany (original said "West Germany") and Austria, both with the old "Siemens & Halske" logo
Could it be a bad solder joint?
I had this is issue in a couple of units I made myself. Apparently after plugging/unplugging several times it stopped working and desoldering the 50-p connector worked again. I also had issues with the soldering of the SD-Card socket.
It would be quite cool to see it with the matching keyboard and mouse... or maybe even cooler to see it with totally different colours, such as a blue keyboard and a green mouse
It's nice to see this moving for real. I heard about this project but I thought it was not yet working.
I understand SCSI is not yet functional, right?
How it looks like in the inside? A photo would be great to see.
Txs, and keep telling us!
