Ok, I did a little sleuthing- - - @jmacz stalking on another forum. I am guessing this is another great restoration in a long line them. This is probably a MO drive, am I right?

Also, that ”Macintosh SE/30” is unique. . . A stock SE/30 name badge is next to the apple logo, not over on the right like the SE. Still, I love it!

@JDW This is your chance to dive into TinkerCAD! Or maybe Onshape? Honestly, I find I can knock together almost anything with TinkerCAD on my iPad fairly quickly. This is one of those little projects that’s really hard for someone else to design without being able to take a bunch of...

@wottle I noticed the bevel too. Hmmm. Until @jmacz shares the details we are left to speculate. I also see there is a crt/flat panel bezel adaptor—so pretty sure this is some kind of video display conversion as well, since that HDD icon is definitely dark blue! :unsure:

OK, so a matte white case looks pretty sweet, but thanks to your profile link, I am THRILLED to find your model of a PB5300 rear port cover! I used to search for this model once in a while but it has been a few months. Thanks for creating that. I can’t wait to try it!

Here’s my updated ADB Mouse with the MacEffects clear shell. This includes a clear homemade ADB cable as discussed previously, and my TPU strain relief fully assembled:

I just posted over in the 3D Printing forum my new ADB Mouse Cord Strain relief: https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/apple-adb-mouse-cord-strain-relief.4661/ This thread has been about 3D printing to be sure, so instead of a complete cross-post, you can check out the details at the link above...

After recently migrating the innards of my SE/30 into a MacEffects clear shell, I did the same thing with the Apple ADB Mouse. This is the original mouse with the black roller ball inside. The problem was the cord, and more to the point of this post—the strain relief. The easy step with the...

Just assembled another 3D printed eMac swivel base part! In spite of my diminutive 180x180mm print bed (Prusa Mini+) this part again came out perfectly usable: Although I'd love to see what a full part would look like printed in solid resin which would be the ideal replacement, I probably...

First boot with the case buttoned up! Wow, she looks so good! Thanks, @wottle for sending the knob. I think it makes a difference. I did not realize it would be so visible! I have a few BlueSCSI devices but this is my first 2.0, so looking forward to WiFi. I still can’t believe we have such...

I dunno if it will help or not but I used iFont app to install fonts on my iPad Pro M4. Now, the scale of your situation is way over and above mine since I only ever needed to install two (2) fonts, but iFont did the trick for me and to be honest, I don’t really even remember the details. I DO...

Funny to get excited about a little knob, but those clear ones look great!

I took a peek at the model you just linked. Let’s call it the jonschwenn model. It definitely looks to have been designed with FDM printing in mind. However, I see a few issues when I pulled it into TinkerCAD alongside yours. . . The PCB mounting holes would need to be adjusted as you...

OK, here we go: This works a treat! All I did was solder a splitter on the LED wires and added a tiny speaker/buzzer. I will 3D print a little mounting clip with an adjustable mute. Perfect.

That‘s excellent. Thanks for sharing those photos. . . Wow that clear resin version looks really nice. I know you commented on it having a little texture, but this looks way better than mine will look. You can see the PCB right against the “window”. I am printing my bracket now using your...

Well, heck, that‘s not bad at all! By the time the case is all buttoned up, that would sound like a lot of drives I have heard over the years. Thanks for sharing that!

Does it click? Squeak? I saw this video: Like that?

Hey @croissantking , sorry to dig up this old thread, but I was wondering how your piezo buzzer/speaker sounds. I know it’s not a relay “drum” like I have seen written up a while back, or the little board with the microcontroller for a clicker of a clicker, but you can’t beat the simplicity...

@wottle How well does the back panel fit over your crystal clear BlueSCSI2 mounting bracket? I am comparing the amount it protrudes into the expansion port area and it is almost double the version I have installed in my SE/30 today which sits flush. I have not assembled my MacEffects case yet...

Thanks for the follow up. That’s the kind of hands-on report I needed. I am going to take a look at the model now to see if the holes are good for my threaded inserts and maybe add the four screw holder holes that PotatoFi has on his model. This is just a really convenient place to store the HDD...
