Today was a great day - after 10 months, all the parts were fitted together for the first time. As a 3D printed prototype of the case just arrived.

Excuse the bad photo quality, late at night again and I still have a low-tech camera that can't deal with dim lighting conditions. But actually, grainy pictures are a Good Thing because there's a lot of finer detail still to be done. The new case is just dropped over my prototype like a hood - not even screwed together yet.

Still, a fiiiiine day for the project. The PiDP-11 will be pretty, now I know for sure :)
