Finally a cardboard mock up of how I'm going to finish the case posterior. Someone suggested pop and lock latches to hide the drives but I want to put a CRT on top.
Now to add the drive bays to make a Dragon Pro+™.
Filled imperfections with body filler and sanded the case.
Added tabs to help with the structural integrity of the case and bonded it together with acrylic.
I'm playing around with broken computer cases again and this time it's the turn of this damaged Dragon 32. Taken about 20mm off the height.
Looks like Burger Time.
Do you have an Amiga A500 and want to play with acceleration but don't want to permanently modify your machine (other than maybe one jumper)?
Just fit a PiStorm to the expansion connector using a Lazarustorm board then.
In my latest video I build a board. Not difficult.

Completely unexpected and very cool indeed. Been a huge fan of Sam's work for years now.

Well done, Sam.

I can only presume that my use of Sam's video building one of my Mini PET kits on the Tindie listing has raised his profile sufficiently, but I don't think I should take all the credit.

Congratulations Sam, this year it's going to be worth watching.

Well, that's a surprise. LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER to represent the UK in this years Eurovision!
I've watched this and now I want an action figure.
RetroFest 2026 is happening again in Swindon 30th and 31st of May.

Everything you need to know. They'll let any old herbert (me) in.
Messing around with #retrocomputer cases again. This time with a smashed Dragon 32. There is so much space in here I can take about 2 cm's in height from it.
Linux on a cheapo android tv box thread.
Paid £6 for this one plus shipping from a Vinted seller
After a long ride with EVRI, it’s here.
This should be 64bit and not like the very limited 32bit one I did recently.
Let’s go!
Have you been wanting to get into vintage computer repairs? Here is how I have been learning to do retro refurbs:

The best use of American AI today would be to help Europe build its own sovereign technologies: operating systems, social media, communications, semiconductors, defence, and yes, more AI. While the subsidies are flowing, let them underwrite a future of genuine technological independence.
Got a few Magnum records in the collection, might have to play some more next Saturday.
Were mine too, probably one of the first bands I ever saw live. IIRC it was the StoryTellers Night tour in 85.
I have my original copy on the Polydor label, not Jet, which I bought in Germany on a student exchange trip.
Now for a bit of Lloyd Cole and the Commotions. #vinyl
How's your Saturday? Painting the kitchen this weekend and need some tunes.
Magnum Vigilante on #Vinyl, not listened to this in over 35 years and still know every word.
I'll look forward to it. I don't mind a bit of filler and paint as it gets the job done. Here are some pics of a Sinclair Spectrum project that I'm currently doing.
Hi Bill, love your recreation of the DEC VT-05. I have a fondness for old computers and terminals that have compound curves and would love to have a real one on my bench. As they are unobtanium I was wondering if you would consider sharing your .stl files?
