Hello!

With a repaint and a 3d printed logo it looks like your cube came from Rob at Black Hole Inc. Curious what you paid for it if you don't mind telling; I try to keep a view on pricing trends. But the real reason for reaching out is your printed logo effort - how is it going? Do you intend to offer them? My logo is trashed... and I am not a fan of the 3D printed reproductions.

No directly from Rob, but I suspect the same. I got it from vintage-computer-parts-store on eBay. Paid about $1700 for it shipped to me (ouch), but I had sold a decent bit of my collection to raise money for it and have always wanted one. I had never seen one locally and felt my chances of scoring one at a bargain were likely not going to happen.

The recreation logos came in, but I was having problems trying to get the gloss finish to look good. The gloss finish from JLC3DP cuts down on the crisp edges that better match the original. Also, the colors are not quite right - a bit too dull. The colors do improve with the gloss finish though. I tried using a gloss spray paint but it tends to pool and there are areas I just cannot get it to stick. My plan was to try getting a brush on coating to give me more control and get the thickness right, but then got side tracked on other projects. I have 9 of the resin prints with no coating if you wanted to try to gloss coat them yourself.

The lineup of two I sprayed with gloss paint, the one gloss finished from JLC3DP, and an unfinished one, underneath the FDM 3d printed on with marker on my Cube. On the FDM one, the N is too red, and the T is too purple.

Here is the unfinished one next to my NeXT Monitor logo:

And here is the gloss painted one:

I'd love to take a shot at applying gloss to one! What would you like for one?

They cost me about $7 each, so $8 to ship in an envelope via USPS?
