The little details make all the difference sometimes. I have made several “under-the-hood” changes to my models and how they go together since I started building miniature Apples. But the latest, small addition really makes a big impact: logo decals for the Apple ][, ][+ and //e.
Big thanks to John Leake, co-host of the RetroMacCast (http://retromaccast.com) for designing, printing and delivering these decals at Kansasfest.
Next up, the second most requested item: a working keyboard.
It wasn’t just hackfest entries, sessions and sleep deprivation at KansasFest 2014 for me. I did a little bit of productive work, too. Products based on the Apple IIc and IIc+ are coming soon.
I did a little digging around in Google Maps, and found out I can plot locations on a map, based on CSV data. So I threw all the RetroConnector orders at it, and here’s what it came up with (click to view larger)
RetroConnector orders, plotted on a world map based on shipping location.
Your miniature Apple II needs a monitor to match, or use this working 3.5” LCD as a standalone display for a Raspberry Pi. Available for order now at RetroConnector.com
The Disk II SD Card Reader files are now on Thingiverse. Share and enjoy:
New model on Thingiverse: the Apple Monitor //
I’ve updated and finally uploaded the Classic Mac Nano Dock to Thingiverse. The model now includes a snap-on base to hide the cable innards, as well as some cleanup inside to better conform to the shape of the Nano.
This site is new, and thus, is still a work in progress.
Essentially, I wanted a place to showcase the various products under the RetroConnector name that I sell on Tindie and Etsy.
