Yeah, I only have 8MB in mine. Really hoping someone comes up with a solution, because the solutions I've found either have no documentation or the parts needed are essentially unobtainable.

OK, I found the reason for the slowness. It appears to be due to the ZuluSCSI or SD card in it. I copied the same HD image over to a BlueSCSI and it is night and day. I suspect fragmentation on the SD card as a possible issue. I formatted the SD card and copied the HD image back on using the...

So, I just recapped the logic board (it looked like someone had recapped, but the surface mount caps were poorly done, and I wanted to get some OS-CON caps in it for longevity. It looks like maybe this machine had an engineering sample installed? Is it possible that this was a reason it...

It doesn't appear a 605 would support the card. At the very least, the opening for a network card isn't large enough for the card connectors, so the back plate would need to be cut out.

I want to, but I'm having some sever performance problems. It's way slower than my NeXT Station, which is the same 25MHz 040... I'm going to recap the logic board when I have time and take a look at the ZuluSCSI to make sure it is set up properly.

After about 6 back and forth interactions with the very patient support person at JLC3DP, I finally got a printable, full color model that they were willing to try to print. It's a bit thicker than the original, but it meets their requirement of prints being at least 1mm thick. The order is...

It's been on the top of my wanted list for some time. I've been selling a decent number of items from my collection and decided I had sold enough that if an opportunity came up to purchase one at a not unreasonable price, I'd finally pull the trigger. Well, I bought on earlier this week and it...

Yeah, I believe they have been delivered and he should have some for sale. Not sure how his website manages inventory, but I suspect you’ll be able to buy shortly. If not let me know and I could assemble one for you. I have a fresh batch of 2mm spacing extra long pins, as well as a stack of...

I did notice that on a second Mac II I ended up getting. The odd thing is that Apple didn’t continue that on the IIfx. If it was that important, it feels like they would have changed it going forward. A side note on my machine that was having issues, I ended up selling recently but before I...

Man, I wish I had found that before. I had a similar experience with a Mac II (I thought it was completely dead, but it turned out to be a bad speaker so I couldn't hear the boot chime). Also, a bad graphics card meant no video... If you are OK with a les original option, I created this...

FYI, if anyone made their own (unlikely), I added a new 3d printed part for better ensuring the pins line up properly. I'm installing them on the next batch I'm sending to @jcm-1. But I've also added the 3d file to the GitHub repo for people that might want to make their own. Note that due...

Highly recommend just building your own: https://tinkerdifferent.com/threads/powerbook-1xx-usb-c-pd-adapter.3827/post-32308 You can use this adapter to connect 24v to the laptop(s): https://www.bixpower.com/CNT-C11-p/cnt-c11.htm?srsltid=AfmBOoq-bTZr8Okl3mOpL9WSzEKl66Xa5-A9XvinL5rqQGD4_9jWrvD0

Apologies. I was out of town for work. Looks like it sold.

Not the cheapest price, but not bad and you’d get some other spare parts. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1DfxKSh2QR/?mibextid=wwXIfr

I've been fighting with a 550 that worked just fine a few years ago and then last year when I went to power it on, it does not boot. I get the power LED, fan, some sounds from the SCSI HD, but no picture or boot chime. I recapped and cleaned the board, same issue. I tested a known good Color...

Got the screws and nylon washers in. I was able to get it to work, but I think using socket head cap screws made it harder. Basically, I had to insert the knobs in their holder with the hex key not fully pressed in, then rotate the knob while pushing the hex key in with tweezers until it was...

I assume you're talking about the resin case being in sunlight? I've heard of yellowing of resin prints. I'm likely to try to paint it when I have it all set up and mostly working. I've read that there are some almond colored spray paints that do a good job of matching the IIc color. (e.g...

Got my replacement case parts optimized for resin. with the updated orientation for the hex key, It's the original front case with the glue / press in slot for the nut on the hinge, so we'll see how it holds up and I may reprint just the front if the superglued nut doesn't withstand the stress...

Might be worth trying to at least confirm that the ground pins are where the schema expects them to be. Would at least increase the confidence level a bit.

Could you clip the arms off the connector so you could insert it the proper way? Of course, that assumes all the pins are actually the same and its not a whole new pin layout... Obviously that only works if you can find a new logic board, and verify nothing in the LCD was also fried.
