@olePigeon good luck with that other board
That’s amazing! How did you get the dimensions for the original parts in order to reproduce them with such precision?created new 3d parts for fixing the broken standoffs on the lid

You are on a roll! Inspired by the 3D parts... something I want to learn how to do... Blender's installed, I have access to Prusa's... just need to do it!
You could totally market these if you wanted to!Finished building a power supply for my 540c using my custom made connector.
Do you repaint the cases on the systems you've restored? They look very nice. All my classic Macs look like they fell off a building onto some rocks, and were then drowned at the bottom of the ocean for a few decades, before being washed onto the beach and pooped on by gulls.
To confuse matters, there were two versions of the Plus. The earlier ones were beige and they were later changed to Platinum.I don't entirely remember which machines were "platinum" and which were other shades of off-white, but if my memory serves I think the Mac 128K, 512K, and Plus were a slightly more beige color compared to the Mac SE and later systems.
Could you share what paint you're using, and what kind of brush you've used to apply it? I would think the toughest part might be avoiding visible brush strokes.
What did you do for the keycaps on your ADB keyboard? Did you paint them too and then apply new decals for the letters, or just leave them yellowed?
