Saba Sabine radio HTPC
I was looking for something to fit the living room better than an old destop case. An old radio that's not to big but can fit a mini-itx and is nice.
I found this: Saba Sabine-M (1959)
It was brown, had some cracks, did't work at all.
I kept the original mechanism to move the dial and the mechanism to work the buttons. The res ws thrown out, but as a consequence the m-itx board firs only in a 45 degree angle. New base plate and back cover from metal, panted it white. I added a LED stripe to the bottom with warm white light.
It served 6 years, now its empty and waits for the next HW to move in.
PSU: AcBel AI2PC23 (200W) - from an old Thinkcenter A50.
