WORK IN PROGRESS - At this point no one has printed and assembled one of these units other than me. The documentation on required electronics, wiring, and software setup is also a WIP. At this point you should consider yourself an alpha-tester!

This model evokes the feel of a NeXT MegaPixel Display, but is not an exact replica. I made some changes to make it easier to print, but there are still quite a few parts. The display has mounting spots for a Raspberry Pi, display, and associated hardware that allow you to run a NeXT emulator called previous (get it?).
Take a look at a short video of the model in operation.
Instructions for Printing, Assembling, and Wiring the model, along with a list of required supplies, are available on GitHub and will be maintained there.
