It was the metal piece that wraps around the outside part of the transformer, was soldered on to bridge a gap where the metal broke. 1 sec: Rust: 128k rust: de rusted: rust coated: booting sortof: Don't know why it says attached thumbnail, uploading pictures is kinda wonky for me...

WTF man :O Excuse the dirty hands, just got done changing the oil in the car. :approve: There was another paperclip on the FBT, but that vaporized in the earlier explosion.

Yeah, east coast.

Oh and I just realized from that pic I put the CRT in the 128/512k in upside down. :-x I'll fix that right now I guess lol.

Weekly update thing: Well the guy never responded :p , maybe Bunsen scared him off ;) . Anyway I cleared out the van and brought all of the reasonable good quality machines into the extra room in our house. I started to take apart a plus so I could grab a extra screw and came across this...

Elfen, the .267 is from a stock Se/30. Compared to the stock Se (forgot to take pictures), the accelerator is around 8x faster, if I was to get a FPU, what chip am I looking for? Nothing useful :<, darn, that email is dead too.

Darn, :p . I checked all the numbers in his phone book and they're all dead too.  Too bad, I'd have liked to get him back his documents :-/

The accell has ram, but the dash dosen't show how much, so I don't know if its being used :c . There's also some memory timing switches, don't know how to configure w/o the manual, Actually the cpu is only clocked at 33 mhz, I guess 50 was too high to be stable. :(

Weekly Update: So NipponMac is actually Chinese/Taiwanese :p , will get to that later. Got the accelerator in the Se working today, and fixed up the FDHD Se, and put the accelerator in that. I did some quick benchmarks: Se w/ Accel: Se30: I guess because of the lack of ram and a FPU it...

Imma post in the conqest thread. Look over there.

Nevermind, I had to restart with the control panel program installed :V

One of the mac Se's i'm working on has this accelerator. It's listed here: http://vintageapple.org/macdrivers/accel.shtml , but when I run it on SSW 7.0.1, I get a 'this software isn't made for this macintosh' :-/ . I'm pretty sure the card is working, but I cant test it without software...

Wow that's worth a lot, hopefully it works }:) (side note, how do I write single sided floppies in 2016?) Ironically while some of the outsides all look like trash, the insides have been immaculate (so far), the SE I just opened has a brand new CRT :) Cat stickers are all faded sadly, the...

Why? :p Why not? :D All in all there's 27 in total. List  of :) ; A SE, a SE, a Plus, a Se (no mobo), a Classic, a Se (orange :<), a M0001 (dosent have a name), a Classic, a Classic (cracked case), a Classic 2 (also cracked), a Plus, a Plus (cracked), a SE (with some vintage apple...

Trust me it was easier to rework the shift register than it was to solder the lines to the vram :p

Don't worry Elfen, Uniserver did that already (pretty sure he gives every mobo a bath with his re-caps :) ). Pic isn't cap goo but excess flux I cleaned up after that picture.

Fixed :^) Replaced the shift register and we're back in business. Probably will get a hot air gun for the next time. Used some gallium solder but it doesn't work so good on older solder joints like these.

Uniserver does good work, pricing is reasonable too. I haven't seen him break anything...(yet :p ).

Heyo, I know searching the internet isnt "in" these days with the kids but here's a good comparison video between a 25mhz 68k vs 300mhz PPC. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8CF_OJFBhc Considering the 68k is running at a good 5 fps you'd probably be best off with one of the PowerPC CPU's like...

Morning all! Quick post before going back to work. Yeah Uniserver I was thinking about getting a hot air setup for future smd work, at some point the cost of repair/shipping everything to you will balance out with doing some of the repair work myself ;) . In terms of run time before it...
