Amiga Pregnant Mouse: optical replacement board (PCB) and 3D-printed shell
For the once quite unique, now very rare 'Amiga Pregnant Mouse', which could be found mainly on the Amiga 3000 with two or three buttons, there are new spare parts for experienced, experimental do-it-yourself fans.
The PregnantLaserMouse-project on GitHub by Board Folk is a printed circuit board (PCB) project that represents an optimised, optical replacement board for this mouse. The Gerber files needed for reproduction (and further modification), a list of the required components and tools, as well as documentation, can be found on the GitHub page for the project and can be obtained free of charge.
Matching this, user Maxim7745 offers free STL files for 3D printing parts of the Amiga Pregnant Mouse as a two- or three-button variant on the printables.com platform. The top and bottom parts, ball, buttons and plug can be conveniently printed out using his data. Alternatively, Dennis van den Broek also offers parts of the Amiga Pregnant Mouse with three mouse buttons for 3D printing, but for a small fee. This way, defective parts of an existing mouse can be replaced or a completely new mouse can be 3D-printed. (nba)
