    TinkerTips - Tools of the Trades, Arts, Hardware and . . .

    That's pretty much what this thread is, but I think it's probably bett here in the DIY forum. That way I can add stuff as I go along, post projects I've documented in the past as time permits and it'll keep popping up in new posts now and then?

    630 mini?

    Wondering if the width of your case lends itself to doing a Mini-Portrait Display utilizing one of the inexpensive RPi LCD kits? 768x1024 calling! 🙃

    630 mini?

    WOW!!!!! :cool: Lovin' it, but maybe I might make a suggestion? One LEM legend is that the Q630 was a rework of the Q605 logic board. You might consider that board to keep this wonderful build Quadra correct? Breaking connectors out the backside presents no real problem. ;) edit: that top...

    Macintosh II Rev.A - Reversing the Discrete IC Implemented Origins of NuBus

    I love the images you chip de-constructors provide. How many layers does an ASIC like NuChip employ? I'm wondering if my set of HALs might be shaved(?) and imaged for reverse engineering? Reproduction by burning GAL/PAL replacements would entail how much work? What might be the odds of...

    TinkerTips - Tools of the Trades, Arts, Hardware and . . .

    Rats, all my in progress pics are on the phone! Here's a teaser, shows my love of the figure, color and knotty textures of wood. I've been hoarding the best bits and pieces from what I've used since I moved down here in 2004, apparently just for this project. The two front rails are shipping...

    TinkerTips - Tools of the Trades, Arts, Hardware and . . .

    Update: minor project documented upthread finished! Spade bit countersunk hex bolt head and washer are used where particle board material doesn't meet carriage bolt requirements. As the name implies, they were meant to be used in an application where really solid, tightly grained, first growth...

    Satanic SE/30 Project

    666MHz . . . perfection! :devilish: I love it, fabulous hacking with incredible fit and finish, the backplane and especially the CD conversion exhibit true mastery in practice of the black arts! 😀

    Macintosh II Rev.A - Reversing the Discrete IC Implemented Origins of NuBus

    First step, go back to the source. First of series: DCaDftMIIaMSE We've got C16M (AKA CPUCLK?) and /CLK running in and out of this mess everywhere . . . Now to compare this to the Bomarc NuChip schematic and maybe get this sucker up and running so I can measure the rate of /CLK? WAG is...

    Macintosh Classic Reloaded, almost done.

    Methinks @Bolle is already well on his way down the IIsi road. Just before I started bugging you about morphing your LCIII into the Compact form factor I was posting about reformatting IIsi for the SE/30, driving its CRT from Vampire Video at 12" RGB res. ISTR he PM'd me saying something like...

    Macintosh II Rev.A - Reversing the Discrete IC Implemented Origins of NuBus

    Back to basics: the source of this stream of craziness would be the longstanding NuBus in SE/30 project. So I'm dialing the Rev.A reverse engineering back to the source of its 16MHz CPUCLK to 10MHz NuBus clock implementation for the moment. If that's simple enough, such might be implemented on...

    Shades of His Steveness. :eek:

    A Classic II/LC III laptop/book….

    Not by a much. :unsure: Dana's PowerPortable is a modernistic interpretation of another classic frog design study, such could be the basis for this kind of build, but that's tangential. If headed that way the LCD would be larger and symmetrical, but I like the asymmetry of the target design...

    Modern PDS Riser Card for SE/30

    They do not require an accelerator, they support a IIci Cache Slot interfaced accelerator. They are perfectly usable sans Accelerator which requires no interrupt. If building a riser for the SE/30, provide PowerCache support, but leave connector and PAL unpopulated and you have a three PDS...

    Modern PDS Riser Card for SE/30

    I understand your obsession with this. Many years ago I started the ProtoCache1 threads, not trying to build a new tech adapter, but to complete a project abandoned by the Gamba team. This was the traditional approach to SE/30 expansion, PowerCache Adapter development to go with the crazy stack...

    LOL! Target design + trackbal + palm rests = footprint of Macintosh Portable! :ROFLMAO:

    Modern PDS Riser Card for SE/30

    Artmix PowerCache adapter card has been around for quite a few years. More recently, @Bolle has cloned the DiiMO adapter card, which is likely what Atrmix had done. Bolle did one better, he has the full size card with a single passthru at top, equivalent to Artmix, but has also designed a...

    Transfer files from PowerBook G3 Pismo to PowerBook 190cs

    Lombard's not much better, but retains support for SCSI Disk Mode transfers. The G3 bridge machine to have would be a Wallstreet.

    Transfer files from PowerBook G3 Pismo to PowerBook 190cs

    Pismo transfers with SCSI PowerBooks are a no go on several fronts, I/O ports are totally out of sync along that line of development. But you're talking 190cs, which is blessed with a PCMCIA slot! ;) Get a Compact Flash Card""""" and PCMCIA card adapter for it. DO NOT fall for buying CardBus...

    How do I turn off email notifications . . .

    Thanks, did that yesterday, the alerts are only shown under the icon for in house use, no? Don't mind those, but if they fling junk at my email box I'll turn them all off. Could be that the emails I deleted today came in between trashing the first batch and the time I got around to whacking...
