3D mannequin description
Description
This mission permits you to re-create your individual (and typically uncommon) C64GS system from scratch. You possibly can make the most of the C64C motherboard for that, the one factor to do is to de-solder the connector and solder a vertical one.
This 3d mannequin is an actual enclosure of the C64 Sport System with its sticker and its photographs, re-drawn manually from an actual unit.
The Commodore 64 Video games System (typically abbreviated C64GS) is the cartridge-based dwelling online game console model of the favored Commodore 64 dwelling pc. It was launched in December 1990 by Commodore. It was solely launched in Europe and was a substantial industrial failure. The C64GS was basically a cut-back model of the unique Commodore 64, and the video games developed for it is also run on the unique pc. The specs of the C64GS are a subset of these of the common C64; the primary variations being the omission of the consumer port, serial interface, and cassette port. For the reason that system board is an everyday C64C board these ports are current, however not uncovered on the rear.
Options:
The mannequin is precisely re-drawn from an actual C64 GS system There are 5 components – backside, high, black defend, and a pair of brackets, all of them have each supply (STEP file) and STL, in addition to SolidWorks information. Additionally, there’s a sticker in PDF and CorelDraw format.
I do suggest to print it on a well-liked Chinese language 3d printing and PCB manufacturing facility which you’ll be able to simply discover on search. It took solely ~79 USD to print this enclosure at their manufacturing facility utilizing SLA White Resin. Shield the prints from solar, temperature, and UV publicity!
It’s also possible to print this mannequin manually, however you have to cut up it into components earlier than. For the printing, I like to recommend PLA filament, as a result of it’s simpler to print such fashions utilizing it.
Whereas the C64GS was a industrial failure, it’s actually onerous to search out it now, and if you wish to acquire Commodore gadgets, you may make your individual C64GS simply.
3D printing settings
Use SLA printing and widespread on-line 3d-printing companies. Use “White Resin” on them and “Black Resin” for the label-cartridge half.
