Great video but PLEASE discharge the Anode cap with a flathead screwdriver connected to ground (or the metallic shield, preferably both). The shocks these CRT's can give are nasty, it's definitely worth the hassle 😃

With a single touch, it will give you an instant punk hairdo! What a time saver! Don't pay any attention to the smoke and sizzling skin, it's a minor side effect, nothing to worry about. (

Awesome. You put in so much work. I had one of these back in the 90s. A classic II. Great machine for its time.

@danielmartinsson899 Жыл бұрын

Great job! We had one of these in my school back in the days as well. It was one of the first computers in the school. This one and an some newer Mac model were donated by a parent that worked as a doctor. He had the money our school didn't hold at this time. They didn't see much real use, we mostly used them for some basic games but it was a good introduction to computers for most of us.

Need a Macintosh Lisa? It powers on, but needs either a hard drive, or just a boot loader/OS. I used it way back in the 90's, maintained and ran it at least once a year until 2014 when i moved the drive platen during cleaning (axis protrudes the case), and it never booted up again since, but it sure wants to.

Awesome! I would recommend getting some of that conformal coating spray and coating the boards and whatnot to prevent corrosion in the future...it will live inside now but still would be a good idea for longevity! Great going on the restoration! Keep em coming!!!!

I loved this video. The Mac Classic (4/40) was my first computer when I was in high school. Major geek points for the raSCSI hack. I will say, though, that OS 6.0.8 worked much better than 7 on the Classic.

Great video and restoration work. Another vintage Mac restored and saved! My only suggestion would be to normalize the audio throughout your video. I had to turn up the sound level to hear your narration, but then I was blasted by the music, which was at least 3x the volume of your voice.

@redphantom000 Жыл бұрын

With the RaSCSI, do you run into any problems when shutting down the machine from the OS where the image becomes corrupted? I usually have to power down the PI first through the web interface so it can dump the cache or else I risk corrupting the disk image for the HDD.

@ryanouston 2 ай бұрын

Hey, thanks for the great vid, going to work on a Mac Classic very soon, I'm just building the parts list. Where do you get the caps from? do you get them in a set or just buy individually for the project? Thanks heaps

@Pendleton115 2 ай бұрын

There are some eBay sellers that sell premade kits. However it’s usually cheaper to manually check all your capacitors and order them individually from a site like digikey. I do have plans to offer some capacitor kits on JuicyCrumb.com in the future though :)

What would be real dope, is if some took an old Macintosh like this and put the guts of an iPod Pro inside it, updated the screen, and maybe made an app you could click on and run classic macOS for the nostalgia.

UV lights are good and all but dont you have plenty of sunlight in Australia? I know in winter months it can get a bit dull if that was the case. Great video though.

Yeah when this was filmed it was late winter/early spring in one of the wettest seasons of Australia’s history hahaha . Personally I found the LED’s more consistent and able to get better coverage of the entire part, so I’d recommend them either way

@@Pendleton115 yeah, especially with such an oblique angle the sun is during an Australian winter, early spring it can yield some less than optimal results for it, as well as normal boring tasks like hanging clothes to dry on the line lol.
