Updating my epic #AppleLisaClone thread with a new 3D printed card chassis by SQ9PXB that's now available! I haven't tried it myself, but it looks great.

@fred Thanks for making such a cool program for all of the vintage Macs!
I’d have to go back through my notes but I think it’s a combination of the original video, the aspect ratio of my screen (an LCD from an iPad, this is my #AppleLisaClone ), and higher frame rates because I’m using a SCSI card with a BlueSCSI.
Also, I found the ArduinoFile has better throughout than the original ProFile so even it too could achieve higher frame rates than the default.
Staying warm in front of the 1-bit glow of the Lisa and the Yule log with MacFLIM.

I just realized I started my #AppleLisaClone a little over two years ago!
The post below begins the long thread about my journey.
My #AppleLisaClone has a new front panel! I got one of the new Lisa 1+2 hybrid panels from Mac Effects, courtesy of @Recta_Pete
I moved the iPad LCD panel over to it and added some custom 3D printed CRT bezel gap fillers to fit the curve.
I just noticed today that the case for my #AppleLisaClone seems to be.. painted? It's lighter in color than the first front I purchased. I didn't really pay much attention to it at first but I noticed the HD activity LED light pipe was painted over..!
I mean, it's not a bad paint job as far as these things go. But, why?
This thing is utterly ridiculous.
It's a wooden Apple Lisa!
Inside is my second #AppleLisaClone
Well I can't bloody believe it.
So several months ago I built a second #AppleLisaClone which I semi abandoned as it had a weird fault I couldn't diagnose - the floppy interface was just really *really* slow.
So I took the nuclear option, and with my one good IO board - I swapped every single chip from my "bad" board with my "good" board.
