New member with color classic

[jon_pi]

Hi All, I just wanted to do an introduction post since I’m a new member, but I’ve been visiting this site for a long time. I have a Color Classic that I bought non working about 15 years ago when I was a teenager. At the time I fixed the analog board, got it working, and put in a 575 logic board with full ram and vram, and then did the 640x480 mod. The computer sat in storage for about 10 years after while I was going to university and moving for different jobs. In the last couple years I wanted to get it usable again so I have done a bunch of work to it including installing a SCSI2SD, PDS Ethernet card, full 040 CPU with heat sink, tantalum recapped logic board, 3d printed rear panel, and most recently recapped the analog board. Next thing I want to do is put in a modern SCSI hard drive, so I have lots of space for downloading isos from Macintosh garden. I have it set up prominently in my living room and it’s a great conversation piece.

Which 640x480 mod did you do, the VGA 60Hz one or the high voltage 67Hz one?

It’s 67Hz

Welcome! Great looking machine, glad you pulled it out of storage and gave it a prominent home!

didnt realise someone had modeled this. Hows the fit IRL?

Color Classic - Rear Panel by StephenLulz

This is a replacement rear panel for the Macintosh Color Classic from Apple. Overall, it is dimensionally accurate but I have taken the liberty to remove the flexible locking tabs. Instead, more vents were added!

Bluescsi is pretty nice just knowing its on flash memory and fairly reliable though I wouldnt be surprised if theres an issue with the design theres certainly a lack of passive components on bluescsi.

I actually modelled my own rear panel, because I wanted to have the port symbols and all the internal alignment tabs. I can share this file if there's a standard location for these sorts of things.
