Haha, I was gonna the exact same thing!

I have billiard ball in my Turbo. It's slightly smaller than the stock ball but it still works fine. Maybe a cue ball would work better? I think the cue is slightly larger than the rest of the balls. According to Wikipedia: "Coin-operated pool tables such as those found at bars historically...

I just got a Craigslist IIci that had an exploded battery. Carnage!

I'll help test it

Awesome! I've always wanted one too. Enjoy

Hopefully someone here will want to put the time into fixing it. I have a IIci I got from belgaonkar that works perfectly and I have a second one that has leaked caps but otherwise looks good so I would rather give this one to someone that will show a little TLC and hopefully restore this...

I took apart 2 IIci boxes to find one of them had an exploded battery (pics below). I don't really need to keep it as chances are it's toast so if any of you need parts I have the box, the plastic floppy tower, the power supply (don't know if it works but the machine clicked when I turned it on...

I have a 5300 and a 5300c and the power plugs have both been replaced with a tiny plug that doesn't really work well. I'd like to solder new barrel plugs on. Does anyone know what size they are? I've looked for specs online and found nothing. Thanks These are what I have:

Awesome, thanks. I can just get some at Home Depot

I just installed a network card in my IIsi. Does anyone know the size and thread count of the screws that lock in place?

Took the back off the monitor and messed with the geometry controls only to realize I didn't have to take the back case off. The top knob took care of the ghosting problem, it looks to be some sort of voltage control. I turned it down and the monitor's blacks got blacker. It turned it up and the...

The dental floss is a great way to remove it. I've used it to remove the reflectors on the front forks of my motorcycle, and that's some tough glue.

Yay! That's the only compact I need to complete my collection.

It's the last thing I need to fully restore my first computer, Mac Plus with a Jasmine DirectDrive 20. Thanks!

He's only a 2 hour drive from me so I'd kinda like to know as well. I have about 5 boards that need recapping.

Excellent, thanks!

Thanks for clarifying Cory. SCSI2SD it is then. Is there a favorite vendor or brand out there?

SCSI2SD/CF is the next purchase for me. I'm leaning toward SD only because they seem to be the more popular one. I could still be talked in to a CF though. I don't think card speed is an issue when dealing with pre PPC Macs as the bus is going to be the bottleneck for the most part. And how...

For larger spaces, doesn't Floppy EMU work in some kind of Hard drive mode as well? I just ordered one so it hasn't arrived yet so I have not had the opportunity to explore it. But I think BMOW is just the guy to tell us.

Anyone know how to keep rubber soft after 20 years? One of them broke already. I'll have to glue it for display.
