For the adventurous Apple II restoration enthusiast, I present two new items, technically still in Beta. These are 3D printed replacements for two of the more frequently broken parts on the Apple II, and typically difficult to replace.
- The Apple IIe keyswitch post – purchase from Shapeways or download the STL from Thingiverse and print your own
- Datanetics Apple II or II+ keyswitch post – purchase from Shapeways or download the STL from Thingiverse and print your own
- More variations coming soon
The Datanetics post design includes some very small details that are difficult to reproduce in standard 3D printed material, so if you have any suggestions of redesign options that can replace the original part, and be produced more cheaply, please let me know.
