xAD / nIGHTFALL    A few months ago, i printed 3D the MOS 6581 LightBox but out of laziness i hadn’t yet installed a home automation LED strip. I’ll leave you with the photos, there’s no point in describing what seems obvious :D Gallery:

Digital Magnifier with 2.83 IPS LCD Screen
xAD / nIGHTFALL    Yet another Chinese product, but for 13 it was worth trying this crazy piece of crap. It works well for the price, but the problem, as I suspected, is the focal length, which is practically zero. The protective ring MUST be placed on the object, so if we need to identify SMD components, such as [.....

xAD / nIGHTFALL    I tried for the first time this circuit to mod the Atari 2600 to have a Composite video output and S-Video instead of RF.

Atari Commodore TI99 4A MOS 6581 LightBox
xAD / nIGHTFALL    I modified the original Atari design to have all the components needed for printing on a single plate, having a multicolor printer, it seemed absurd to print all the components separately and then glue or fit them together. I made the two Texas Instruments TI-99 4A and MOS 6581 lightboxes myself....
