I found some really cheap Twentieth Anniversary Mac parts on eBay. With Techshop shutting down I’ve been worried about how I was going to create some of the parts. Particularly any injection molding. I wanted to create the backstand you see in the previous post. However, now I was able to pick up the original backstand from eBay for $50.
Metal Backstand paid $58.
It’s in great shape. The plan is to create a hackintosh with an ATX motherboard placed into the old subwoofer case. I picked up a broken one of these on eBay also for $65. I’m going to try to 3D print a new base that will house the motherboard.
I picked up one last piece from the same seller of the backstand. Its the full front of a broken Twentieth Anniversary Mac. It includes the screen and CD-ROM, but no motherboard. I’m toying with the idea of making the whole middle of the front a vertically oriented screen. Creating a new vacuum pressed backside and housing the motherboard in the subwoofer. Here are the parts.
Front of the Twentieth Anniversary Mac. Paid $200
Subwoofer Case, notice the bottom is missing. Paid $65.
