I 3D printed an “Apple” case for the BlueSCSI

With the #BlueSCSI v2 out, I had to think of a good way to make it blend in to my retro setup and a custom case seemed like the right thing to do! I love Apple's late 80s & early 90s design language so I decided to give it a shot.

In this video I'll show you how I laid out the case in CAD and the whole process for a 3D resin print including my techniques with color matching the resin. Hope you pick up on a few tips and tricks and enjoy the video!
