+jedimatt42 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I finally added appropriate labels to my keycaps. Just printed on an Avery full sheet clear shipping label.

ti99iuc Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Wow jedimatt fantastic job on the keyboard! Are you thinking to create some of them for selling? I would be interested in one at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+jedimatt42 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I have no intention of selling these. It would cost too much, and take too much time away from other projects. I will make sure all the design files and artifacts are available on GitHub. This was a case of throwing good money after bad. If the original keyboard was functional, I would not have. -M@ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fabrice montupet Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 It would cost too much, I confirm! The extended keyboard I made for my TIny-99/4A v2 (that contains a PCB, 79 Cherry MX keys and KeyCaps, some stabiiizers & springs) cost me (without the IC logic) about 140 USD. It really must have to be a big fan of TI-99 to spend such money. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minty Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Hi! I've been having fun with my Tomy Tutors too. I bought the Japanese Pyuta because I've not seen one before and it was dirt cheap. Of course, it was cheap because the keyboard was dead (and my attempts to fix it made it worse), so I bought a second, US version (not so cheap) so I could reuse the keyboard membrane. But of course, the new machine is actually in better nick and has a few subtle differences, so I'm going to keep it intact. Oh, and I bought the console version (broken) because it was cheaper than buying the controllers separately. And of course I now want to mend that. So in the course of a couple months I find myself with a Pyuta collection. I never planned to have a Pyuta collection. And two of those Pyutas don't work, so I also have double the number of broken Pyutas! I did find a company in the UK who would make new membranes for it - same company we used to do new membranes for Sinclair computers - but it's very expensive unless we make lots, and I can't imagine there's the market for that. Oh, and anyone know if the Pyuta Jr console is simply the big machine without the keyboard, or if there's more differences? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went hunting at PRGE last year for megadrive doner cartridges... there are plenty... but then I just ended up buying a Genesis. So I made a case for this cartridge board finally.

Airshack Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Jan 2020 Phoenix VAST Meetup included a survey of the Tutor Multi-Carts. @sparkdrummer and the entire VAST community were in attendance — 100% participation. May need to make a YouTube best of video for these carts. @retroclouds Pitfall was amazing and @jedimatt42’s Sega Genesis Tomy Tutor controller mod proved to best the native Tomy joystick. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Loguidice Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Does anyone happen to have a fully working Tomy Tutor for sale with a work controller (preferably a joystick) or know where to get one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
