Check out the Bambu A1 3D printer and filaments I used here: Bambu A1 printer: bit.ly/3WiJ9e5

It's a little-known fact. AMTEL is the Sony of miniature CRT TVs.
-
I'd recommend using a Pi 3 for this, it still has composite video (on the "audio" jack, it's TRRS) and is much faster - might even get decent emulation speeds with it. And you can route the GPIO to your empty slot in the back!
-
"Glow in the dark green! That's what we're using!" Of course you're using the dumbest option, Sean. Never change! ❤
-
If you haven't seen mine, I built the Big Mac @ Open Sauce, which went the opposite direction with a 21" screen-sized Mac Plus and everything else scaled up to fit.
-
You might be able to get better quality if you output a black and white (luma) signal from the Pi, not sure if it’s possible but I’ve heard on old black and white displays the contrast and legibility can improve.
-
Sean: "Maybe I'll just be careful" LOL!
-
The opposite would be a Mac/2, a cursed computer with a Frankenstein GUI running on top of OS/2 1.0.
-
I used to have a Mac Plus as a child, it was my dad's, and my first computer. I played many games on it until it was stolen in a robbery
-
As a British person of a certain age, the appearance of RISC OS fills my heart with joy.
-
I have two or three of those 5" black and white TVs that I never use, something like this might be a good use of one of those
-
I have one of those CRTs mini TVs. It works. And a pi. And random PSUs and voltage regulators. And a 3D printer. And a VCF nearby. Nah.
-
The Mac Plus has always been my favourite Macintosh so seeing a smaller, more portable version complete with CRT, is a real treat!
-
DankPods would call him Shrek-minus.
-
these types of tvs were very common and were even still on sale brand new in 2009 or maybe ever 2010
-
This is what an Apple Archimedes would look like!
-
What about an FPGA-based or otherwise re-engineered but shrunken version with a BlueSCSI instead of the floppy drive? Or even a smaller version still, while you’re at it 🙃
-
I love my Mac plus, I’m not that old but one of my friends brothers got me into retro computing then I found this channel which is a great channel. I watch it all the time and it’s so cool to see a portable plus
-
Glow in the dark filament is great. A couple of years back I printed a 12 inch Enterprise 1701-D in the stuff, and its still awesome
-
Damn right, it's adorable. I love how you bring me in to get fascinated by projects I thought I wouldn't have any interest in. Until I do. Dang it!
