3D model description

Build your own Commodore PET Mini! This is version v317. Instructions, documentation, latest versions and more on the official Commodore PET Mini website: https://commodorepetmini.com

This is one of the most iconic-looking computer of the 70's, it reminds us of an era of frenetic innovation, harsh competition and bold design choices that shaped the computer industry as we know it today.

This project is based on the Commodore PET model 8032. You'll 3D print a case that contains a Raspberry Pi computer and a tiny screen to emulate the almighty PET (and many other computers and game consoles). It has been carefully designed to be as accurate as possible to the original design, all the connections are made on the back panel and it even hinges upwards to reveal its guts, just like the original!

3D printing settings

My recommendation is to print the parts in a normal 0.2mm layer height setting, with a 30 - 40% infill setting and use supports. The recommended print orientation is the one you find the pieces in when opening the files.
