Hi,
Well done.
I am very interested in understanding how you mounted these CPUs in the frames. What materials did you use? |

well, i made the frames using fir (pine ? ) to be light.. i used extruded polystyrene (2 cm thickness) for fixing the CPUS. For some of the cpus i had plastic sockets that i have glued (with double sided tape used for fixing mirrors) on polystyrene... and i just mounted the CPUs in the sockets .. the older CPUs with big and solid pins i just stuck them in polystiren until i'll have sockets for them... Other CPUs with smaller pins are fxed with double sided tape...

Polystyrene is very bad in terms of static electricity, I would think. |

some are white , some yellow... i like to keep the colour.. its the same story with old coins..cleaning them destroys them... i just try to remove the others : dust, pen marks and other substances...

I'd be afraid of the same, though I'm curious what about graphite enriched polystyrene...? That might be somewhat conductive.
Nice exhibition, btw! And it's not even that far from here...

thank you
i dont know what to say about static electricity .... i searched for a solution to be pretty cheap, big pieces , and a good contrast for best view (ceramic cpus on black surface wouldnt look so good ) ..
