I'm sure there's a 1001 people that could drill lots of nice little holes into your amiga, but you might want to give some more information on where the holes are going and what there for! and where your located!

Buy a drill. If you have to have one hole, you will want more in the future. Something I learned the hard way... EXCELSIOR!

Nice Mod!

But what the heck are they?  whats the 2 round black holes for?  Speakers?  and the rectangle cut?  LCD display?




EDIT:   Nevermind!  I just saw your webpage..........I would have put Shielded speakers in there to make a Portable A500 BoomBox :-)

That tool looks like it will destroy the plastic into shreads! ... It must be spinning realllllly fast and have small tiny teeth?

@all: are there any amiga mods like that black A600 leirbag28 posted in images ?

What does that LCD screen do? It's LCD right?

[hamtronix]

Lets see the LCD fired up! I would assume you are using it for MHz or maybe the LFO? Check out the links at 'hakker's site above. Holy cow you have some nice pics... hakker do you still own all that equipment? Looks like you had a direct line to a C= warehouse.

@hamtronix:

About the A500 mods yes, I will show some pictures when is fired up, but it not going to be befor after Christmas  :-( there is still a lot of work and to little time, but basic I hope to get it up and running on/with a PIC, there controls "minors"   :-D  hacks..
