The build uses a Raspberry Pi 3B+ running macOS inside a 3D-printed empty 1984 Macintosh shell. The shell is printed horizontally to achieve a tapered profile and includes a larger 10.5-inch 3:2 display. A 3D-printed tray secures the Pi with cutouts for USB and Ethernet, and I/O cables connect to the display. A custom six-color Apple logo is 3D-printed and applied for a glossy finish. DIY files are available on MakerWorld and a step-by-step video documents the software and hardware assembly.
The 3D printed 1984 Apple Macintosh empty shell is powered by the MacOS-enabled Raspberry Pi 3B+ inside. It is a brainchild of Quinn Nelson, who runs the YouTube channel Snazzy Labs. The modernized 3D case is something that you can also build yourself. Nelson has provided DIY files for the same on MakerWorld, if you are interested. Designer: Snazzy Labs
The Raspberry Pi mount tray is also 3D printed. It has cutouts for USB and Ethernet connectivity. The eternal display slides into the specially created opening to form the screen of the Macintosh computer, which is finished with the classic six-color Apple logo just below the screen. The custom Apple logo is also printed from scratch and ironed on the surface using the printer for a glossy finish.
