I recently built two SDrive Max devices for the Atari 8-bit line of computers. I used the excellent tutorial by Steve Boswell. Additionally, Steve had created some beautiful 3D printed cases to put them in. He made a range, but as the devices I had as a kid (and have the real thing again now as well), I went for a 1010 cassette player, and a 1050 floppy disc drive.
They really are works of art, and he has colour matched the filaments perfectly. I wanted to make them even more authentic, so created some labels for them, that I then printed on heavy duty silver stickers, and applied them for the finishing touch.
I added the ‘S’ on the end to denote SDrive Max, but others suggested ‘Small’ and ‘Speed’ – whatever works for you!
People asked for a set, but they’re not professional products so I didn’t feel I could sell them, so I’m making them available for download here.
I have included a full sheet which contains 8x 1010 and 8x 1050 labels, but there are also individual ones should you want to create your own layups.
These are the labels I use, print ONLY with a Laser printer. The PDF (UK or US as appropriate) should be printed at 100%, not fit-to-paper, or scaled in any way.
