🥳Unsolicited thrift store good news:
For just wanting the case for my RaspberryPi build, I bought a tiny, about 50 year old portable radio for €0,50. Clearly marked "(Philips, not working)".
I bought, for spare parts, a Scalextric slot car racetrack with two cars, €2. Clearly marked "broken".
What's hilarious is that, not only the radio works fine, the slot car racetrack came with EVERYTHING including spare parts and original untouched car decal sheet.
The racetrack is pretty clear case, I will... AHEM, my boys will play with it as is just fine.
But the radio though. It's cute as a little pig. I can't destroy it for a Pi build. 😁
I feel so lucky. Should I now go buy scratch tickets, chewing tobacco and a Peterbuilt meshback baseball cap? 🤔
