This isn't my scene, so I thought I watch for a minute or two, but I was glued to the screen to the end. The number of disciplines involved in making this, a single individual, I can't comprehend how brilliant some people are. I really enjoyed this, thanks.
Amazing job! Don't beat yourself up over the small stuff. The monitor turning is totally a bonus and not necessary at all. This is so cute and adorable and really bring you back to the way computers were in the 90's.
The amount of joy I am getting from seeing this work in action is astronomical. No joke, if you were to make these for sale, I would be front & center ready to buy one.
Every time I opened a PC case from the ’90s, it was like signing a blood pact! Those things were covered in so many sharp edges, especially the removable cut-outs! I swear, if you didn’t walk away with at least one cut and a new set of dried blood fingerprints, were you even really building a PC?
it's amazing to me that in the short span of 2-3 decades we go from this piece of tech bein cutting edge, to a hobbyist buildin a miniature version for fun & it's likely more powerful too
I just found your channel through Instructables, and I have to say this was beyond outstanding from start to finish! Thanks for the great mini PC project !
Man you've got a downright gorgeous workspace, that's the only way to describe it. It was nice to see someone using resin for parts like these. You just can't get that level of detail with a normal printer.
Great project! Tbh the only real flaw I can see is going with a Windows XP-styled skin for a PC with that kind of design - that's a Windows 2000 machine at most, though W98 would be just as fitting. XP era Dells were more often black and much more rounded and stylized in their designs IIRC. Now, this might be on the "going a bit too far" side, but once you're making your own SD card reader PCB, why not make a 3D printed floppy disk microSD card holder that fits into a suitable slot, where the card interfaces with a reader? Or a CD-rom tray you can pull out that holds the card? This would of course require a lot of careful design, plus probably disassembling an SD reader to get the pins without the housing, but it would be incredibly cool. Still, even as it is now, 10/10 project, super well done!
That's incredible! The screen looks a lot like (and probably is the same as) the 720x720 4" display in my PowKiddy RGB30 handheld games console. It's great for playing horizontal and vertical oriented arcade games. Didn't realise you could buy it separately, so thanks for that. Come to think of it, the speakers look the same too.
Dear Salim, honestly, make this a buyable thing... maybe just in a small amount! I've just turned 40 this year, and THIS is exactly what would stop my midlife crisis!
Amazing attention to detail, just beautiful. All the old school games i used to play back in the late 90's! Couldn't get Golden Axe to play on my crappy computer running Windows 3.1. My mum didnt want to get Windows 95, cause she had learned on 3.1 and was worried she wouldn't be able to use 95.
It was Beautiful, man. I really feels the 90’s vibe in every single piece that you’ve projected all by yourself, and most important thing, all that parts of the project were made with attention in details, even the pronounced parts of texture and the tiny water decals, remembering me in, and I believe, everyone here was delighted by the charming and nostalgic idea. It’s amazing. Greetings from Brazil.
Abso, fuk'n. epic. Your attention to detail, candor/transparency, and production quality of your content earned an enthusiastic subscriber and I can't wait to check out your other vids. Thanks for sharing, what an awesome project!
The work you put into this project plus the great editing and camera work are top-notch! The monitor wobble is definitely a real-life thing, so that's actually a "happy little accident." Great video. Subbed for sure so I don't miss out on your other projects!
I have some suggestions for significantly improving the product experience and making it even more realistic than the original. One of the main things that is noticeable right away, that tells you it only looks like a replica, is the lack of a lensed screen made from glass. It is possible to create it from clear resin mold. The best option is to cast a glass shape, which is a complicated process, but this will be a top-notch solution. Another thing is not to add extra weight to the monitor. This could be done quickly by adding small metal inserts on the side walls of the box. But even with all configurations, this project is in a league of its own! It would be cool to convert the old ball mouse and keyboard to wireless. So there will be a complete setup
This is somewhere between astonishing and fantastic. To say that you're cool means to say nothing at all! It's like... I mean.... man I'm totally overwhelmed!!!!!!!
OMG! This is AWESOME! Well done! If you plan on selling these I MUST have one. I learned to code basic on these so I have a deep love for these machines. Thanks for making this vid and sharing your build! ❤️❤️
0:1916:38 Super fast build mode! Damn, I expected some quick and dirty "click bait worthy" content. And, oh boy am I glad to be wrong! You worked a lot, and really have a passion for details, it's awesome! The end result is awesome! Thank you for sharing your wonderful work with us all.
I had a great time with Pentium II and Pentium III , browsing the web , playing video games , watching Divx , playing emulators back in 2003's . I still have my IBM 300GL , I need rams , the cpu and a new CRT
I LOVE this video. And I wouldn't have appreciated it as much if not for the conclusion and reflection at the end of the video. Really showed that you care about the process! Keep it up big guy
Despite the flaws you mentioned this is incredibly work. I like your idea and how you went about building it. And last but not least nicely edited video with very nice b-roll footage.
AMAZING. I have been looking at doing this for many years, but basically just sticking a pi inside of an existing case I have that looks like a miniature pc but it is a novelty storage case for floppy discs. But you have gone total next level and the design of it is spot on. Now just to make some miniature speakers! The only thing I would have changed really is having the micro sd slot be a standard sd slot with a microsd inside an adapter card. Not sure if this messes up anything with the pi system, but the bigger sd slot may be less fiddly. If you did a small kickstarter for these (say 1000 units) just the kit without the pi, you would probably get the funding within a day and then some!

You could add tiny smd LED (or other one) to illuminate LED on monitor, but god darn this is the most interesting video with RPi i have seen in a long time, even music in this video is retro and fits the theme! Well done!
This was absolutely incredible. I have no words! I wish I was as knowledgeable as you in doing something like this! The games shown at the end made me incredibly happy 😊
I do design many objects too and I have a subjection: Like Elon says: best part is not part. You should try to reduce drastically the number of screws, there is a lot of solutions with clips included in the model to prevent screws. You should take a look at the Amiga 600 laptop a French guy did. Like me, he tried to remove most screws.
Beautyful! I think about to built such a thing for myself, theoretically I have everything needed for at home (beside eventually the screen and so) but its pretty much work for.... nostalgy ;) Anyway: gr8 work!!!
I've always wished there was a company that still made CRTs, but with modern technology, and you've absolutely nailed it! Is there any chance you could create a full-sized CRT monitor, maybe 15 or 17 inches? That would be incredible! Since older CRTs are becoming fragile with failing capacitors and other malfunctions, having a brand-new life-sized CRT with today’s tech would be amazing. I'd gladly pay good money for it! Do you think the market is too small for companies to turn this into a viable business?
These computers are specifically called CRT monitors. The actual computer is the big brick under it, which is called a PC, which like a game console, puts in an operating system, into the display.
I do love how you embedded the ad/sponsor in the video. I didn’t even skip ahead at the risk of missing content 🤷♂️ Also a fantastic project!! 😊 You gained a sub and probably a lot more.
Even while wet sanding, I would highly, HIGHLY recommend wearing at least a dust mask, if not a full respirator while sanding resin. Resin dust is a serious hazard and can give you life-long breathing issues. It's definitely better to be safe than sorry with this stuff.
Really great project and video, thank you :D And I think the monitor swing makes it more realistic ^^ I remember some weren't very stable after some years...
This is SO amazing... the attention to detail and thoroughness of the video and explanations... This takes so many disciplines to make something like this possible, I only hope to be as great as this one day... I really want a mini pc now too haha. Great work here, I so look forward to what you make next! Subbed! And thank you for sharing this!
the real monitors wobble like that... you nailed it
Yes! 😂 Just missing the "Turbo" button no one knows what does 🤣
@@TheStuartstardust The Turbo button slows down the CPU so it can run older applications at the correct speed.
@@JoBot__so it's more of a slow button
Yea, all my CRT monitors had that wobble too.
@@Planet2763real Correct.
You should sell these! I'd buy one!!!
yes... in kit form....me want
Pls sell these and do ship internationally 😢
you could create kits to assemble, you would sell thousands of them 💰💰💰
Yes! I would buy one!
I'm interested in buying as well
19:15 - That "slop" in the monitor... replicates just about every monitor I had back in the day! Great job!
Haha! You’re right! Mine too had that
i came to comment exactly this.
100% the old plastic monitor stands were absolute trash. One solid smack to the desk and the whole thing would wiggle.
@@greenprotag so true
dude you bit me to this coment by 3 weeks :)
This isn't my scene, so I thought I watch for a minute or two, but I was glued to the screen to the end. The number of disciplines involved in making this, a single individual, I can't comprehend how brilliant some people are. I really enjoyed this, thanks.
The algorithm did not respect this video enough
the fact you can make something so compact, functional and aesthetically pleasing is a testament to how skilled you are, holy crap.
Not gonna lie.
That's sweet AF!
Amazing job! Don't beat yourself up over the small stuff. The monitor turning is totally a bonus and not necessary at all. This is so cute and adorable and really bring you back to the way computers were in the 90's.

Thank you! No plans for making any for sale for now but all instructions are available if you wish to make one your self.

Simply AMAZING! I can’t get over how realistic it is. Every computer geek needs one of these.
If this was on Amazon would buy it in a heartbeat
but how much would you pay?
$150-ish?
This really whips the Llama's ... well you know ;)

Same! You have a wide set of skills and tools to match them! 10/10

Nice, would have been cool if the sd card went in to the floppy slot :D
Or, or some sort of business card CD/dvd slot.
These are the type of videos that deserves millions of views.
That's some serious engineering right there! It's spot on!
This is maybe the coolest thing I've seen anyone do with a 3d printer 🙌
That's incredible! The screen looks a lot like (and probably is the same as) the 720x720 4" display in my PowKiddy RGB30 handheld games console.

What a great build. Your craftsmanship is superb! I'm near 50 so remember this style of PC very well.
I am happy. I was born to exact moment when computers came to my country, so I could literally grow up with it.
To think that a tiny micro board like the Pi is more capable than the full-size PCs this one is emulating is just bonkers.
That mini computer looks legit and professional
That's waaaaaaaay more effort than I could put into all those little details! nicely done.
The work you put into this project plus the great editing and camera work are top-notch! The monitor wobble is definitely a real-life thing, so that's actually a "happy little accident." Great video. Subbed for sure so I don't miss out on your other projects!
This was a really nice and fun build to watch. Thank you for putting this project together and sharing it with the world.

And ofcourse the mini XP can play Doom 😂
I've seen a lot of minature computer projects The fact that this runs and works like an old PC is amazng.
يا رجل لقد قمت بعمل أكثر من احترافي !!
أقدر لك هذا ..لم أرى شيئا بهذه الدقة صنع في منزل !
This looks close to 1/6 scale, im a collector and I would absolutely buy one of these.
This is a work of nostalgic art.
I had a great time with Pentium II and Pentium III , browsing the web , playing video games , watching Divx , playing emulators back in 2003's . I still have my IBM 300GL , I need rams , the cpu and a new CRT
Awesome project!
This kind of machine I only had in the mid-90s, my first computer was the 5150.
I LOVE this video. And I wouldn't have appreciated it as much if not for the conclusion and reflection at the end of the video. Really showed that you care about the process! Keep it up big guy
Every video is a new peak on this channel. Once again, an amazing project and something I look forward to build!
What you show here, sir, is pure art. Kudos to you
You're a wizard, Harry. 🪄 Subscribed.
Carinissimo! Very nice! Bellissimo! Che nostalgia i vecchi computer.

Man those old Beige box desktops give me so much nostalgic feels. Great work! This is so cool. id 100% buy one of these
Cool project and amazing attention to details!
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Awesome!!!! Love it!!! I want one!
Your projects are incredible. Thanks for sharing your process with us.
That's the coolest thing I've seen in a long time!
This with HDMI in as a monitor would be amazing. Bonus feature, run your PC's HDD and reset pin outs to this to have them flicker on the little pc.
I want one, It's so beautiful. Awesome work!

Lovely little one. Ive been sitting on a mini laptop idea for a while myself out of one of my Pis. Respect

Finally a proper fully working miniature. It's gorgeous
Honestly bro, I don’t want one … I NEED ONE!! 👋🤩👍✨
Amazing work !
A tear for all of us still using this type of computer.
As always, I am impressed by your attention to the details in everything you do.
Well done Sir! My biggest respect. And really nice and beautiful piece of artwork as result ❤
These computers are specifically called CRT monitors. The actual computer is the big brick under it, which is called a PC, which like a game console, puts in an operating system, into the display.
Man...i used to have one of those at home back then in 2005-2008.Good times 😢
This is a beautiful industrial design piece, nailed it, just subscribed
I do love how you embedded the ad/sponsor in the video. I didn’t even skip ahead at the risk of missing content 🤷♂️

Gorgeous little PC! It couldn't be better in my opinion!
Even while wet sanding, I would highly, HIGHLY recommend wearing at least a dust mask, if not a full respirator while sanding resin. Resin dust is a serious hazard and can give you life-long breathing issues. It's definitely better to be safe than sorry with this stuff.
The detailing and professionalism ❤
Very cool build and great video. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
This is way freaking cool :) Very impressive!
Really great project and video, thank you :D
And I think the monitor swing makes it more realistic ^^ I remember some weren't very stable after some years...
It is a fantastic good result! You are great!
Wake up babe Salim Benbouziyane just uploaded.
I've just about snapped because of how overused this is.
Another great project and video!
Thanks Scott!
This is SO amazing... the attention to detail and thoroughness of the video and explanations...
