I'm pretty sure it was 20 or 25 last year. I just go and walk through the exhibits in like 20 minutes and then head to the consignment section to see what goodies there are. If I have to tack on the extra $45, it kills any kind of deal I could get from consignment. I guess I won't be going this...

Am I remembering correctly or did the ticket prices double? I seem to remember going on Saturdays for a single day for half the price of this year.

Hi all, I'm restoring a 128k with a Levco Monster Mac board in it. I cleaned everything up, serviced the floppy, and replaced a burnt plug on the analog board, along with a burnt Rifa cap. Everything seems to work but I'm getting these weird staticky artifacts on the screen. Has anyone seen...

I'm recapping a 128k analog board so I bought the 3 extra caps from Console5. The film cap at C38 is burnt so I figured I'd replace that and C33 and C37 too.

I glued it back together and although it's bit brittle, it should hold. You only need to adjust it once… I hope.

I slid the plastic out of the coil and it's still intact and the pot still spins inside. So I think I'm gonna try and glue it back together with some T-8000. It has a super fine nozzle so I think I can make it work. The burnt plastic is really brittle though so I have to be really careful. I'll...

I wonder if the internals could be extracted and a new plastic housing could be 3D printed? I might try that since it's junk now anyway. I unfortunately don't have a donor board to extract another inductor from. I think the main problem with that is 3D printed items are not heat resistant at...

Can anyone point me to the correct part on Digikey or Mouser or even Console5 for this part at L2 on a 128k Analog board? It's right next to a power plug that fried and melted this one.

Ah, OK that makes sense. I really don't know though. Can you tell from the pics?

Thanks David, I guess since I don't plan on using the modem I can just leave as is.

A PAL board? I dunno. You mean like PAL or NTSC? I do know it's a rev A board that has the PMMU upgrade. I bought from a fellow 68ker in 2018. It's been in a display cabinet since then. I just started restoring all my vintage Macs (recapping, BlueSCSIs, retrobriting, floppy servicing, etc.) and...

I have a Mac II with an upgraded PMMU and 20MBs of RAM. I pulled it out of my display cabinet to replace the soldered on batteries with a battery holder and noticed a resistor soldered in the J2 position. Does anyone know what that's for? Here's some pics:

I'm having the exact same problem. I have 2 LCIIs I'm working on. One is not recapped and boots fine, the other one was leaking so I didn't try to boot it before recapping. After cleaning the board and recapping and cleaning again, I get no chime and black screen. The fan runs and I can hear the...

I did the mod on both my Pluses and they both work fine with the SillyTinySCSI on the external plug. I did use the 50v diodes though.

Colorfabb till not available in the US. Here's the answer I got when I asked about it: Remco Gubbels (colorFabb) 17 Jun 2024, 11:21 CEST Dear Randall, Thanks for reaching out to us. Unfortunately this item is not (yet) available in...

The reason I ask is because maybe the overpowered diode skowly burned something out. I don't know enough about electronic components to know if the 1000v vs the 50v could have harmed something but when you mod something and then shortly after that something goes wrong, it's rarely a coincidence.

I was gonna do this mod on my two Pluses so I could leave my SillyTinySCSI mounted on the back with no external power, but now I think I'm gonna wait until you can post what the problem was. I just recapped the analog boards and serviced the floppy drives and they're working beautifully. I don't...

It's there now, works great. Thanks so much!
