Bikerbob Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Has anyone reproduced these, with the pin locators for the circuit board? I have a reproduction PCB that fits into a SParta shell perfectly.. but I dont want to use my Sparta shell, I would like to print up something instead. Has anyone done this?

James I don't know if the COREi64 shell for the Super SpartaDOS X cartridge PCB is compatible with the original ICD PCB size, but I think it is. https://corei64.com/shop/index.php?route=product/product&path=62_87&product_id=67 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember that being part of the discussion back when he first made the models for these. Express!, Diamond Cart, etc... all could use this...

The following is from the end of the description: Two different cartridge tops are available. One with the embossed SDX lettering, and the other plain (in case you'd like to put your own label on it).

I could print enough for all my friends for that kind of money. just need the STL to do it!! @Mr Robot IF you could it would be amazing.

Mr Robot Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I have the STL's for a 1200 extender PCB which is almost the same thing but longer. If someone wants to send me the PCB you want to fit in it, it should be pretty trivial to cut down to size. I'd of course send you back the PCB when it's done and stick the STL's online. I'm in the process of *slowly* putting all my 3d stuff on line for anyone to print but lack of time in my real life is not progressing these things at any pace. I'm moving off thingyverse and on to https://www.printables.com because its actually a good platform that feels fit for purpose. My models will also be on my website for forever too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathy Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Hello Steve Why use the PCB to create the STL of the cartridge case instead of the original cartridge case itself? The original cartridge cases used by ICD (for these carts) are all the same, the PCBs might not. Sincerely Mathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Robot Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Because if I have the PCB I can check that it fits, if I have an original case I can only check that it looks the same. I've done this a few times, look at the SIO2PC cases I did, I had to make a few design changes because not every board fitted the original design due to tolerance issues with aftermarket SIO sockets, I could have never done that just looking at a case that is supposed to fit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve, I have an original SDX I can send you to test with if you need it. I'll pay you for a case also -- my original cracked a few years ago. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
