Thanks to @nulleric, I can now browse the #TinkerDifferent forums using an #AppleNewton device.

Designed and printed a 4 x AA NiMH battery tray for the Apple eMate. This lets me change the batteries out quickly because they're not soldered, welded, or wrapped together. The bottom of the tray is open so you can push the batteries out easily. The fit should be snug.

Model available here: https://www.printables.com/model/1485849-apple-emate-aa-battery-tray

Parts for the eMate battery tray including a cable and copper foil tape.

Today was a good day for #AppleNewton acquisition … three boxes of #MessagePad goodies from a longtime Newton user. I’m going to inventory and document the new additions for the quiver and hopefully distribute multiple items to the community. A huge thanks to Claus for his generosity.

A few small orange ribbon cables in an antistatic bag in an open box.

Two large filament spools, one red and one light grey, along with an ORIC Atmos and an ORIC-1 computer, which show how similar their colors are to the filaments.
