Building a new ZX Spectrum in 2023 - All New Components!

time2 yr agoview271 views

A brand new ZX Spectrum 48k made from completely new parts. Even the tricky bits! Not a brand new concept, but the first one I've made and possibly the first issue 6A motherboard build video? The motherboard was created by the brilliant Devzine (https://twitter.com/devzine_pl or https://devzine.pl/) Something I wish I had access to when building this is Devzine's GitHub page with all the interactive information you could wish for - https://github.com/pmandes/zx-spectrum-issue6a-replica If you want to buy one of these boards you can find them on Devzine's Tindie store here: https://www.tindie.com/products/devzine_pl/zx-spectrum-48k-issue-6a-motherboard-replica-pcbs/

This very special ZX Spectrum will be auctioned for charity on the 16th of September 2023 to raise money for the Befriending Scheme
