Thanks to a generous short-term loan of several original bezels for the PM9600, I have been able to produce accurate 3D model reproductions of the PM9600 / G3 front bezels. Big thank you to @xenocide21 for the loaned parts! Here are the 3D models for general usage, please be sure to refer to...

I have two IIsi machines, when I use a BMoW ROMinator II I get instant death chimes on both machines. I also get instant death chimes when I use a Kero's Mac Mods ROM SIM loaded with System 7.1.0. I can boot both machines into System 7.1 using a BlueSCSI, no optional RAM or ROM SIM. I can...

Is it possible to get VGA video out from a stock IIsi? I’ve tried a DB15 to VGA adapter on multiple LCD monitors without success. What’s the trick here? Alternatively, I have a RGBtoHDMI; maybe this is a better option?

As the title says, I have an unresponsive Quantum ProDrive ELS. This drive is from my family's 1993 LC 520 and has a lot of old school projects and silly doodles on it. As a result, I'm interested in restoring the information. I see there's a spacer available on eBay for this specific drive. I...

I've made a dimensionally accurate 3D replica of the "Fanny Mac" but now I'd love community feedback. The fanny mac is an active cooling device which inserts into the handle cavity on early Compact Macs. Feedback I see feedback as fitting into three broad categories: What fan is best for this...

If you own a Hakko portable desoldering gun you may already know the single status LED doesn't show power status. Instead, it shows if the iron is up to target temperature and will turn off when the temperature is reached. This is an unusual choice, as it invites two immediately obvious safety...

Want to see the world's smallest hair straightener? Well... not quite, but it IS an ultra-compact and precise temperature controlled hair-clip. I know, I made a weird thing but the reason for making it has nothing to do with hair! See, there was a time when the idea of glueing important...

After watching a popular youtuber's recent Patreon-only video, I was inspired to retry my Logic LUB-SC adapter which I purchased from Sendico on my birthday in 2021. I am pretty sure the drive I was testing it on was ID 0. My M1 Mac Mini recognized the USB device appropriately but didn't...

A few of members are already familiar with truth tables and reversing PAL / GAL chips. If you're among the less familiar, these are chips with several inputs and several outputs. The output is dependent on the combination of input signals to individual pins — all of which can be customized. This...

Some time in 1988, a small company created a video output adapter for early compact macs with the model number 2702. There are other models, but the focus of my post is on this adapter. I can only assume they were a small company with a handful of employees because later the following year they...

TAM Umbilical Cord I've documented the TAM "Umbilical Cord" for anyone who does not have a base unit or would like more information while debugging / repairing their base unit. All of the information is available in my GitHub repo. Connector Pin Connector Label 1 J2 Pin 7 AMP OE 2...

I have a lovely Quicktake 200 and Smartmedia card but no way to upload the photos to a computer. I've purchased two readers — an old HP Smartmedia reader which turns out only supports 3.3v Smartmedia and a MicroTech CameraMate. Unfortunately, the CameraMate doesn't seem to power on, even with a...

I purchased this Mac 128k logic board knowing it wasn't working. I've poked at it a little over the last 6 months, which includes: Building a 4164 DRAM tester and testing the original DRAM. I found 2 were faulty but ended up replacing them all. Swapping the LS166 @ F14 & F15 (example board...

This is an iterative update to the ROM-inator PCB — nothing too fancy, just rounded out a few details to make it easier to assemble and install. You can find the Gerber open hardware link on my GitHub Repo. This project was inspired after watching JDW's Youtube video on the ROM-inator.

This is an ongoing effort to reverse engineer the DT320 eMate 300 Expansion module. The reference module was generously loaned by colin (@This Does Not Compute) of This Does Not Compute. Schematics, gerbers, datasheets, and more are currently closed in a private repo and will be released once...
