This is like the 20th reason why I need to get a filament in the retro computer beige color.
- ChickeNES 3y agoThis filament: https://www.printedsolid.com/products/jessie-pla-1-75mm-x-1kg-beige-500 https://www.printedsolid.com/products/jessie-pla-1-75mm-x-1k... claims to be a direct match for the Amiga 500 beige. I don't have one to compare it to, but it's pretty close to some of the beige machines I do have
- 13of40 3y agoThe real question is does it turn nut brown on one side if you leave it next to the window for ten years.
- 037 3y agoOut of curiosity: can you list some of the other reasons?
- krabizzwainch 3y agoSure! I’ve got a Tandy T-100 that I want to mod/repair/do something with. The needed electrical repairs are beyond my soldering ability, so I’m gonna try to hand off the internals to someone at a vintage computer fair. I also have an old handheld radio project that I want to mod to put a Pi in. Need the matching color to make it thicker to actually fit the components I have. And I’m in the middle of printing a case for an eReader I’m building. I wrote the software in Python and it has mechanical keyboard switches for the buttons. It’s the main reason I bought a 3D printer, because it was previously built out of an AirPods box. Seems like it’d be cool in this beige. Fine, I exaggerated. I have 3 other uses lol
- 037 3y agoReally interesting, especially the eReader idea! Thank you for taking the time to answer.
