Recent Progress
Great progress recently on both the software and hardware side.
Software
- Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS installed
- Macbuntu installed to make it look like OSX. Amazingly close to the real OSX.
- SheepShaver – Emulates PowerPC setup with OS9 up and running.
- Basilisk II – Emulates 68040 with Quadra 630 ROM. Yes, I do own a couple of these, so ROMs are legal.
Hardware
You can see the results below. All the pieces fit together very nicely. Its amazing the tolerances of a laser cutter. The whole thing “snaps” together. Next steps are to paint and apply the cherry wood veneer and stain. I expect this will be a Version 1 product, but I’m hopeful given how well the pieces fit.

A labor of love done at last. More commentary later, but here are the pictures.
