Once again, spare a moment for Mrs retro shacks t towels…..thank you for your service

Have you got the parts you need yet? Really looking forward to part 3.

Hi, I enjoyed the two parts so far. Hope you return to it. Gday from sunny Melbourne. ☀️

Excellent videos. When do you think you'll come back to Part 3 of the Archimedes?

at 9:57 if that spot wasn't a burn caused by some kind of external heat source, It could be due to a chemical reaction between two different types of plastic, one of which is the PC case, I have similar issue happened by an AV cable touching my pc case for a long period of time in a slightly warm unventilated place, Looking forward for the next part Thanks

Great work, as always. I look forward to seeing a functioning Acorn in the next episode.

Cable was a quick home made job I used to test my video out before I had a monitor - it may fall to bits if you open it 😂

For the battery compartment, if you can find a battery charge/boost unit that has it's "battery voltage" controlled by a single resistor, then it should be fairly easy to use a multi-throw switch to allow you to use whatever type of battery that you want, when you want.

Just making a quick enquiry as to how the project is going considering this video is almost a year old now?

So surprised to see you power it up before giving the board a good clean. Now looking forward to seeing you make it work :).

Imagine what retro computing channels will look 50 years from now. People with home electronic microscopes, using nano robots for re-soldering and splicing silicon in chips. You're lucky to be able to do anything with your actual human thumbs.

Have a good break, looking forward to seeing the A3000 working

please do a part 3!

Great work as usual

What happened to the 3rd part of the A3000 series?

Ah, I remember video cables just like that and with the headphone jack running into the scart, I never did figure why they didn't provide audio on the D-connector.

🐨 That defect can be cheaply fixed by learning how to fix Textured Plastic, So I would suggest you do a KZfaq search on " How to fix textured plastic " and watch and learn how easy it is to repair and restore all kinds of plastics, Also note that there are Plastic/Acrylic Paints out there that can also repair any Retro-Brightening gone wrong, Mind you though... If you are somewhat of a perfectionist, you may find yourself investing in several colours in order to blend the perfect colour matching the plastic when it was first manufactured, usually a colour found within the insides..

That melted case looked like an Amiga 500(+), no idea what melted it though.

Oh my! I've been looking for one of these to refurbish for my daughter for a while but can't find one for remotely sensible money. Real shame as they are great educational machines even now. If anyone has one in a cupboard do get in touch!!!

What happened to part 3 ?

Did this project hit a brick wall?

RISC OS 2 was okay but 3.1 and 3.11 were vast improvements. The casing looks, as you point out, like original. The keyboard, however, is disgusting. I'm looking forward to the next exciting episode! Have a good break.

What ever happened to the part 3?

Great video, I particularly like the length of your videos. I'm still missing an Archimedes from my collection. What happened to that Amiga A1200?! It was difficult to guess from the first angle as the A600 and A1200 have the same port arrangement, but the giveaway was the square hole underneath. I might have a spare A1200 case buried in a dark cupboard corner, I will have to have a rummage to check on the condition as it's been a few years though. I was planning to cut a hole in one to add a laptop CD-ROM drive for CD32 emulation.

The burn is either an Amiga A600 or an A1200 for sure.

Automatic subtitles haven't been generated 😟

That looks like an Amiga that someone has stored with the power cable wrapped around, to me... -Dx

3d Printing time?

15th century lol feels like it

A down vote? Must be jealous he does not have an Acorn A3000.
