3D Printed Raspberry Pi Case - Macintosh Pi

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 มี.ค. 2020
- Since my childhood I'm a huge Apple fan. The day my father gave me an old Power Macintosh 8500/180 was like Christmas and birthday together (all nerds will understand why :-D) since then i started collecting old Apple Computer and love the design of those retro devices. A while ago i got a Raspberry Pie 4 Model B and i saw that it was possible to install MacOS Classic on it! BUT... The Cases available on the Market looks ugly and wouldn't fit to it. And buying old apple devices on ebay to put in the Raspberry is very expensive!!! So i decided to design and 3D Print my own Raspberry Pi Case that is Inspired by the old SCSI External Apple 20SC Drive. YES I'M A NERD! *WING
Have fun watching the Video! :-)

So cool to see somebody else figure out the laser print & tape trick we've been using in our fine art for a little while now! A couple of tips that we've figured out that might help you in future laser decals: a little drop of dish soap on your fingers helps keep your adhesive sticky (keeps your skin oils from gumming it up). And we like using laminating sheets instead of adhesive tape, as it's a little thicker and has more adhesive. Happy making!
Cool! thanks for the advice. I’ll try it on my next projects! :-)
That is seriously the coolest Hackintosh ever. ❤️
Thank you!
You sand so fast, you don't need a belt sander! I'm impressed.
Made my day 😂 to be honest the sanding part ist just faster. FYI since last year I’m a happy owner of a belt sander 😃
Those green LEDs you use to solder the Pis for your MacPi cases can be sold for about $9 a pack at Amazon.
I'm currently designing a MacPi case STL file for the newly-released rPi 5 (inspired by your project), which includes a switch for the power button, and I made a new label for the case with Inkscape and Linearity Curve. The Apple logo was used as a placeholder for an icon I made for the label. Once I finish, If you like, I can PM you the STL file and the label. Maybe you can make a few improvements to the case design.
The music is funky fresh! Awesome video
especially love seeing the caliper and paper step of the design process thank you
Thank you! :-)
This is so amazing! I've been wondering since a long time how I can build a plastic beige case (or at least a good imitation thereof) and turns out you can use sprite. Also important to polish the recently printed pieces.
Amazing! 100% Perfect for Retro Fans.
Thanks :-)!
Dudeee this looks amazing! I'd love to have one of these myself! Great work!
Thank you so much! These will be available again soon :-)
this is super cool! good job and congratulations on the great outcome!
Suchipi thank you very much!!
really cool construction!
Kevin, any chance you'd make the CAD files to this available for the public?
Yes please. Really enjoyed watching this creative video all the way through.
Incredible work u have done! Perfect, congrats!
Iván Muhlenberg thank you so much Iván I really appreciate it!
Beautiful work!!
LOVE the creativity and execution!!!
Thank you very much :-)
Id buy one of those already built from you! Amazing work.
Saw this on Reddit, super cool!
yanksrock1000 same
Great job on this!
Thanks Michael!
Wow that's just a stunning build - the transparent decal was esp cool!
Thank you very much! :-)
That's some nice work right there!
spooforbrains thank you my friend!
That was pretty impressive to watch.
Thank you ! :-)
OMG! YOU ARE MY MENTOR!!!!! NICE WORK
Cool project!
Thank you !!
Genius! I loved!
Thank you very much! And happy Easter :-)
Such a gorgeous case. I'm sorry I only now discovered your channel and this video (or I would have insta-bought this case + mouse). I hope you can still reply, what is the liquid you use when sanding the PLA? I'm guessing it might just be water + dishwasher soap?
Damn cool. Awesome attention to detail! Also, has anyone out there attempted to print a full on full size retro Mac case, i.e. for a Macintosh II series or Power Mac i.e. Power Mac 8500? I have an 8500 heavily upgraded but its case is brittle as hell... I'd like to either print myself or have some someone print for me a new case for it so I don't have to be so careful with it.
looking forward to buying this case, good job!
Thank you very much Andre :-) few more days and it will appear in my Onlineshop
@@KevinNoki is it there yet?? : )
Almost! Waiting for some Parts which are needed to build this case then I can start! Thanks for your patience :-)

Un Súper Invento!!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😄
Muchas gracias :-) !
Beautiful-- and awesome with the decal. I had no idea that could work. Can you tell us exactly what you sprayed after you affixed the decal/tape? Some kind of varnish?
Richard Peacock Thank you my friend! I sprayed a few layers of clear coat to prevent a detach of the logo :-)
@@KevinNoki did you use a laser or inkjet printer?
@@KevDoy sorry for my late answer! I saw your question just right now. This process works only with Laserprinters
@@KevinNoki thank you! Any chance of releasing the STLs? 😇
I wanna make a vintage Mac case/shroud for my M2 Mini!
Great idea! I made one for the Mac Studio a while ago unfortunately I don’t own a Mac mini m2 but it should look amazing :-)
This gives me Nostalgic about a Mac OS 9.
Really cool please upload it somewhere
awesome! pm8500 was my favorite tho. btw can you share how you installed macos 9 on your raspberry pi? everything works well? does sound work?
Thank you Jamie! Check out the video from the TH-camr „Novaspirit Tech“ he’s explaining it how to install OS9 on Raspberry Pi -> It works great! sound as well!
Kevin Noki Thank you so much!!
Hello I saw you your own made mac case its great!! i want to buy your case without raspberry Pi thank you
Instant buy!
Soon available again :-) thank you 😊🙏
@@KevinNoki Do you plan to sell that wireless retro 1984 mouse? I have been looking for a similar product to buy. (Maybe a little bit less original one with two buttons similar to C64 mouse and probably with a scroll). I must say that RAL 7044 made my day. Thanks for that. I've already ordered some Ral 7044 spray paints after watching this video.
Dude, this is freaking awesome. I wish I had those skillz. I want to make a life size Macintosh classic or se to fit a 7' or 10" LCD with a pi 4, but I can't model and don't think it would fit on an ender 3 to print lol
Thank you very much bro! Actually I’m having the same idea to print a life size Mac I’ll release a video soon :-) should be also possible on the ender 3 if you split the parts so that those fit on the buildplate and glue them together in the end 😃
@@KevinNoki if you make a render and subsequent file for printing, cany you let me know. I'd love to make it. I've been looking at Amazon for the r-pi lcd kits between 7-10"
@@adonian Sure!
awesome work, stunning
any chance to get these files to reproduce your cute case for private purposes?
Thank you very much! I’ll try to release it asap
Super Awesome, how did you get a Macintosh to work on a Raspberry Pi I have tried but no luck.
Thank you! Try Sheepshaver :-)
Wow Nice Project, what printer do you have?
Thank you! I used an Ender 3 for this project
Could you explain that "decal making" process? Is that a special paper? or tape? How does that work?
Ian McCullough Decal is actually a special foil that you can print on but I did mine with a simple Laserprinter, Tape and Water :-)
Hey, two questions.
Since you're not making the case anymore, do you sell the CAD files for printing?
Also, how did you get Mac OS 9.XX to work at what seems to be close to full speed? Are you using QEMU-PPC or SheepShaver
Sure, I‘m going to make more cases those will be available soon :-)
I‘m using sheepshaver with good results.
Thanks and have a great day!
any chance of the STL files becoming available again?
Now we just need macos 9 for raspberry pi
Emulation is possible with sheepshaver :-)
@@KevinNoki but its sadly just emulation would be really nice if someone would port it to raspberry pi natively even if then no external software works
@@KevinNoki great work that case looks amazing i really love the old design language of apple the new aluminum looks great too though
Sure that would be amazing!
what are you running for macintosh classic emulation? Sheepshaver or something else? I remember giving up on macintosh emulation at the time of sheepshaver due to things like no usb or serial support. Would be interested in what you are using :)
Hi Matt, I’m using sheepshaver ARM version on rasbian you can find your USB drive through the Unix partition or set it up as a shared folder i guess that should work too but I’m not sure yet. Serial support might be difficult
Also could you please create the macintosh pi for the raspberry pi 5 because it’s a much more capable machine and I’m planning on 3D priming the files
Not read all the comments so it might well have been said before but… Apple Pi, surely!?
Wait wait: 6:52 what kind of paper are you using? =D
Would love to buy the STL for this if possible. I see the Etsy store is down
Hi Dylan, the STL is now available on Etsy!
Regards
Kevin
Hey why are there no more stl files and where can I get them?
Your work is awesome! Any chance you’d sell the case/mouse? I’d definitely purchase both if you had an online shop :)
Thank you very much!!! I'm producing both products right now, the shop will be online soon :-)
@@KevinNoki Hi! I am also interested in buying one! I have a Mac Color Classic at home, but would love this little guy. Please put me on your list when they are available. Thank you. You can email me at: mraroid@gmail.com
Not available under the listed link, can the 3d model be purchased and self printed?
Hi! Thanks for your Comment currently there are only versions available that weren’t polished. 3D Printed lines are visible, here the link to my shop: www.etsy.com/shop/NokiOne
Cooles Projekt! Wäre es möglich, dass du die 3D Datei veröffentlichst? Oder würdest du so ein Case auch Verkaufen? :D
Which software did you write on sd card ?
The OS is Raspbian the Software is SheepShaver
What bgm are u using
Will my low profile ice tower fit in this case
With some little adjustments it should fit :-)
Err, this is wicked… any chance you could make more complete kits and take my money?
Sure! You‘ll be able to spend your money by end of next week since I’m going to release an upgraded version of this case on my online shop! :-) I would be very happy to make one of these for you! thank you for your comment and kind words!
Best Regards
Kevin

Y los STL ?
how did you get os 9 to run on the pi?
Hi, I'm using the SheepShaver emulator
so just need a bare metal Mac emulator for the Pi
are the files avalibe to be bought?? i neeeeeeed this!!!!
Yes my shop is going to be online next week again.
Are you ever gonna sell these again🥺🥺🥺
Yes I’m working on it. The Shop will be online soon :-)
hey... suuuuupper 👍👍👍👍🤣🥰🥰🤓 kannst du uns deine 3d druck datei, für das pi gehäuse geben? zb. mit einem link unter das video... 👌 thanks from deutschland. 🙋🏻♂️
Hi Martin freut mich das es dir gefällt! Werde die kommenden Tage die STLs hochladen, da ich noch ein paar Verbesserungen vornehmen muss. thanks ebenfalls from deutschland :-)
Where is the resistor for that diode?
Hi John its soldered to the LED
Will a usb floppy drive work with the emulator?
That’s exactly what I was also asking myself, so I ordered a usb-floppy drive. It should arrive the next days then I’ll give you an update!
Can you 3d print a retro case but in laptop form?
Sure I’ll put it on my list for my future videos :-) Have a great day!
@@KevinNoki ok thanks I'll subscribe so I can see it thanks
Oh one other Question I've ben looking for a raspberry pi laptop 3dprinted case online but I had no luck. And I don't have Good 3d modeling skills. When you make the shell for the classic laptop can you send me a dow load link on my gmail or discord or something? Bucuse I'm getting really tired of searching and all I find is desktop shells. It would help me for my project of making my dream laptop thanks. I can send the blueprints that I drew so it could be more easy for you to make it and you could agust the size to make the rasbery pi fit it in with the kind of ports I would like. But the internals I could do I just need help with the case.
I want one soooo bad
Kevin Noki thanks
Clash with Kayden! Me too 😩
The prices on eBay are so F*ED up.
I guess that's chumacalit an Apple Pi
good job, but i would love to hear you discuss your process rather than listen to music.
Thank you so much for the feedback! I totally agree with you, in my next video I’m going to improve that.
Background music way too loud and annoying. Cute retro style MAC emulator.
Thanks for your comment! I agree with you I won’t add any background music in future videos
