-Falcon Case-

[Warp12]

I bought a beautiful Falcon last year. But, The casing has some small mods (holes, and a notch). Are these cases, aside from color, the same as any other Atari model? If so, what model?

Bottom is specific to the Falcon, the top is the same as a Ste

The floppy in particular is different. You have to make some cuts to fit an STe in a Falcon case for example. I also remember having to shear off a post or two in there (I put an STe in a Falcon case loooong ago).

Right, the top is reusable apart from the floppy drive hole.

Maybe someone with a 3D printer could make up some STF/E drive slot "shims".

 

Basically a hollow rectangle that you glue over the modded drive bay hold to hide the less-than-machine-accurate cuts made with a drill bit and xacto knife.

 

Would be handy for anyone replacing a failed ST drive with an industry standard 3.5 unit.
