Nice work :-)
I look forward to more pics and updates on your projekt :-)


Thanks :-)

These things ALWAYS take longer  than expected and I am partially just slacking today :-p

I am still working on the 2nd internal 1571, with all the cables and connectors needing to be extended.

The 1571 board is mounted and has power, I already have the new faceplate ready. As soon as I am done with this wiring extension she will be installed operational! Stay tuned!

Gotta stay in love with the 8bit!


Yeah i love my 8bit but i have been neglecting them in regards to upgrades, altough now after this GVP 4060 I am done with buying upgrade for the miggy's (except for the Invision OCS/ECS) and now can start saving for the 8 bits only problem is finding Accelators and other things for them... :(

It is a small MMU board that is required with the SuperCPU 128, in order to use the accelerator in 128 mode.

I am going to button her up, enough work on the inside for now. Once buttoned up I will take a few more pics and maybe even a video for Youtube.

I am not completely finsihed with this project, I have more plans :-) At the very least, the blank faceplate is going to become a major switch panel. Fun fun fun :-D

Well, I think I am going to wait until I finish staining the computer bench before making a Youtube video. The nasty, dirty Kraft paper covering it right now doesn't look too nice. I did button her up and took a few pics, here is the one that came out best.

http://redsretro.com/128t-may09/128Tmay09k.JPG

If you have a pic request, let me know! Otherwise, that may be it for a little bit until I either get the bench finished or find some time to put a little more work into it.
