Done reading that? Good. Now, lets expand the idea to include new parts and designs.
Let's start with simple modifications to original parts to make them better, sturdier, or more useful today.
For example, how about an Amiga 500 trapdoor cover with integrated vent holes and mounts for a tiny cooling fan?
Or an Amiga drive bay face-plate with mounts and slots for other uses. Like an SD reader, or USB port, or switches and LED pairs.
How about a 1084 monitor control door with a sturdier hinge!
How about cases for various devices and expansions that don't have them or have inadequate ones?
The next step is to have 3D modelers and printers collaborate with hardware hackers and designers to create cases, mounts, etc. for their designs to help bring more complete, polished, and protected products to the community.
