Description
Note: Check out the Instructables page for an updated version for a new screen (the old one is no longer available). In addition there is a link to a slightly larger version using a Pi 3x
Years ago I saw that John Leake, of RetroMacCast built a 1/3 scale Macintosh. I was so envious... I really wanted one but didn't have the time or resources.
Times have changed and technology has moved on. Smaller, cheaper components and new fabrication methods have made the process far easier. I was able to made a smaller, cheaper and simpler version. Now you can make one for yourselves!
All of the instructions and supplies are on Instructables.com Making a Tiny Mac From a Raspberry Pi Zero.
Note that the original screen is no longer available so I added the new models and info in the Instructables page. There are fronts for the original Mac, SE, SE30 and Classic front panels.
Printer: Prusa I3 MK3S
Resolution: 0.2

Notes:
MiniMacFront.stl is placed on it's back and uses Supports on Build Plate Only
MiniMacBack.stl is placed upright and uses Supports Everywhere with a Brim/Raft
The remaining 2 parts use no supports. MiniMacFrontPlain.stl was included if you wish to print it on it's side.
