There wasn't an Apple II post here yet, so I'll make one.
I built a GS Stealth without using a kit. It has been modified using a rivet panel on the back.

It's outputting HDMI now, but it's converted to SCAT once and then output through a commercially available circuit.

Beautiful work! It looks surprisingly authentic, well done. I've always wanted a IIe with the GS kit installed, there's something less charming about the IIGS form factor.

You're right. At GS, I hadn't used it because I wasn't that generation (I worked at an authorized retailer around 1990), but when I finished making it, I got tired of it.
However, when I had a GS 20 years ago, I couldn't help with the software and OS, and eventually gave up. But it was a good chance to try, so it became a memorable computer for me.
I think the fun with the Apple II is that you can flash the ROM yourself and experience something like a developer. It's more recursive than the Mac.
