Sidecar case for my A500

xboxown · 03 August 2023, 21:13

Hello,

I am wondering if there is a company where I can order a custom sidecar case for my Amiga 500. I am going to have a normal basic external 3.5" IDE hard drive hooked into the Zorro port. The A500 external IDE. I just want a case to put this

in it. I have a 3.5" I want to put it in there also. Thanks in advance.

There are some nice 3d printing options mainly targeting the ACA500 accelerator which might be of use to you

Thanks for the link. However, there is no way to reaching him. It just shows the case which is perfect. I can ask him to make the holes for screwing correctly and ask him for a hard drive crate and maybe modify it a bit more. But problem I have is there is no emails to reach him or means to reaching him.

Perhaps you could try and take his files and edit them yourself. Part of the publishing on Thingyverse is that the community can extend, tweak, amend and share - might be a bit of a up struggle to start with and I'm still learning. That is what the previous link / user appears to have done from the original source:
