Re: The MTX case profile drawings

I can also scan the end plate and model that.

I'll upload everything into Shapeways or some other 3D printing service.

Re: The MTX case profile drawings

Guess I'm going to unscrew the side plate off mine and put the thing on a flatbed scanner. Should be able to use the image to make a vector based lineart of it that I can import into Autodesk 123D Design. Once the shape is there, it's simply a matter of extruding it, like in the original case. Heck,...

Re: Wanted: Faulty DRAM chips wanted!

You still looking? I have a ragtag team of 4116s, or actually the variations of them.

The MTX case profile drawings

Is there drawings of the MTX case profile in some format? To my understanding the case is extruded aluminium profile. I was thinking of making a case for the CFX and it might be easiest to 3D print the profile to the desired length. I have access to a 3D printer, so I could give a go to making the c...

Re: CFX

Finally, after a year of purchase, I'm gonna be able to try the CFX, and the MTX for that matter out, as I'm getting a PSU for my MTX. :D

I've had the bits and pieces to build a PSU out but haven't had the time to put it together.
I'm also getting a 32 kB RAM expansion card and a replacement GAL.

Re: What NEW hardware you think would be useful for your MTX

For me, some kind of memory expansion would be great and I'm also looking forward for the CFX.

At least if I can get the PSU built.

Memotech production numbers

Is there any records about the production quantities of the three MTX models? Are we talking tens or hundreds of thousands in total? The numbers must be considerably smaller compared to pretty much all other 8-bit computer models as the Memotechs are pretty hard to come by nowadays. I think even Ori...
