Parts enable conversion of a disk II 5-1/4" external floppy drive to hold an Intel Mini mac and have the drive work through the slot etc
macfrontlift – This is a small strip of a very particular size to sit under the black front facia which used to be held by the drive internals. – I did 100% fill
macfrontdriveflsp – The slots push fit into the back of the drive flap (pictured) to stop it falling out of its hinge. It again it normally attached to the drive innards. I did 50% fill
macfrontboardmount – This again is a very specific size to hold the mini mac on and above the base so the CD drive slot matches with the floppy slot. I attached the motherboard to this with silicone. – Printed 40% fill
macfrontrear – Optional as you will have to cut off the rear aluminium plate to use it. Allows the cable to go through and fan to vent, with a cutout for a cheap ebay push to make switch for power. Printed with 25% fill.
The mac mini LED wire can be spliced to the “in use” red LED infront of the drive and will work !
The Power switch wires in to the rear switch for power and reset. It’s then self-contained.
PLEASE DON’T DO THIS WITH WORKING OLD DRIVES ! I obtained this one broken and infact rusty inside from a garden shed !
