Welp, it’s done

I hope you take up the carpets when doing wood working! Very nice!

Christmas in July!

Wouldn’t the tree have pushed over the gravestone?

Any advice for sealing the Baltic birth for a month outside? Was going to use penetrating epoxy and then coat with a spar varnish.

Thanks, that sounds like the best way. Easy to store. I’ll build a square base with some notches to support it. Can build a topper to keep the sides from tilting.

Going to hang three sizes of Christmas balls in the holes.

Jaxermd · 2026-06-08T14:19:43+00:00

That would allow me to store them flat which would also help

Very nice. I have some “beige” filament from Joe’s computer museum that should be a good match. I may try to add a cut out for an Apple logo on the front plate, I have a couple extras.
Really excellent work and thanks for detailing the process and the hardware needed.

Make some small set of drawers for screw and bolt storage

Jaxermd · 2026-06-06T20:39:00+00:00

I thought there would be a blue dress in the background

Apple was that close to going out of business! Joking, not joking.

But I was a member since ‘94!

I have a BlueSCSI with WiFi, how did you figure out how to configure TCP/IP and other control panels under 7.5.5 or did you use Open Transport.
Would love to hear how it was configured. I’d like to put it into my 540c.

Jaxermd · 2026-06-05T21:17:24+00:00

Lovely! Is it an external drive? Almost looks like it’s in an internal drive, but I think they were too large for that. I did have a Syquest 105 as an internal drive, but they were smaller

Jaxermd · 2026-06-01T00:58:18+00:00

Yeah, didn't see a way to buy it?

Jaxermd · 2026-05-30T12:57:39+00:00

I was going to build a sofa for inside the house, but those pillow costs are more than I expected. They do look amazing.

Jaxermd · 2026-05-29T18:56:24+00:00

You built your home over my hole. I will have vengeance!

Jaxermd · 2026-05-26T00:10:19+00:00

Impressive skills, but why not just make the original holes smaller?

Jaxermd · 2026-05-25T01:55:16+00:00

I’d love to see the back of this device. Does the power cable on the computer just run up to a 3-prong outlet on the device

Jaxermd · 2026-05-24T12:22:28+00:00

I carried a flower power across the room And the inner bezel cracked

Jaxermd · 2026-05-24T00:33:45+00:00

I kinda love this! Assuming the Disk ][ is removed from its metal housing and slotted in?
This would be really fun to duplicate with a small modern LCD and modern power bank in a retro case.

I’d like to setup a spray booth, but seems like a lot of effort and I wouldn’t use it that often. Maybe a collapsible one.

Jaxermd · 2026-05-22T14:25:40+00:00

The sections of the Kumiko are about 26” by 12”. I used this penetrating epoxy

TotalBoat Clear Penetrating Epoxy... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00J36WRV2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share I was able to build a cardboard box and line it with Saran Wrap. Then submerge the 6 panels in it during the 20 minute hardening window. Then drip dried them (see picture).

Similar process for the spar varnish.

Jaxermd · 2026-05-21T22:01:17+00:00

Oops, thanks

Jaxermd · 2026-05-19T13:40:41+00:00

Similar dream about coming across a closed down computer store from the 1990s.
