Yet another Raspberry Pi Lisa case, but this one has the STLs!

Found this today: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KlLikJLRA0 and in the description it has a link to the STL files, incase you have a 3D printer and would like to build your own: https://www.stlfinder.com/model/apple-lisa-raspberry-pi-case-ungrouped-8UXkdL1z/7784189/
As a bonus, here's a Mac version from Adafruit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_duo8Wogsw and https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:441583 (but there's more parts needed as listed in the video description).

Lisa2:
Yes this is great, I might try printing one myself.

I don't get why the creator when to all the trouble to simulate the LOS when he could have used LisaEm and ran the real code.....

That was my 3D rpi

Ive been trying to get the code running on Raspberry (this video had the rpi 4; I since returned it in Amazon and bought a rpi3; to try and create a real Apple Lisa emulation. 

Been working with Ray (thanks Ray and thanks for helping find this site)

Having a Lisa would be great but__ they are expensive and NO place to put her (I think she would be a ''her'' haha), so I created a mini version that I was hoping to fiddle with. 

I also created a rpi4 NeXTcube that is successfully running Previous (NeXT emulation)

I finally was able to get the Apple Lisa up and running.  I had a copy of it a while back and put the book of Proverbs on it.  I ended up just using that image on the Raspberry Pi, so I can make changes on a big iMac screen, and then copy the profile file over to the rpi.

whoo hoo, Now I just need to figure out how to minimize the bezel and maximize the screen.  Taking the skin off doesn't work, it just centres the screen.

Hi @berskyboy, welcome and thank you for the bug report on github.

I would say, please wait a few weeks maybe a couple of months until I shake out all the bugs in LisaEm 1.2.7, as this version has a few very useful features for use on a raspberry pi. For one thing, it adds a command line option interface, so when it launches you can have it turn on immediately and go full screen and go skinless, so you could setup Raspbian to auto start with LisaEm on power on.

The trouble is, skinless modes right now have some sizing and mouse location issues, but I've also found and fixed a few memory leaks and I'm tracking down another memory clobber issue that I have to fix before I can go back to fixing the display issues.

Does the display you use report that it's much larger than it is? Does centering in skinless mode break things?

I don't want to steal the conversation away from your RPi case and build to LisaEm, and I know you've mentioned some of the build stuff on your links off youtube, but could you tell us a bit more here? Like what display did you use for your RPi, and does it need any drivers? Anything else you had to do to prep the case for 3D printing and any post printing processes?

This is a pretty common use case for an RPi and I'm sure lots of folks are interested in building their own, myself included, though, I do own one of the ones made by Charles Mangin ( https://retroconnector.com/?s=pixl&submit=Search ) However in my case I couldn't get the display to work, it just shows a white background and nothing else, perhaps I need to install a driver or something, so right now I just keep it powered off a shelf display.

[Actually I do know some of the answers to these questions, but this more to get this conversation started and more people involved, I'm sneaky that way.]
