Submitted by tmtomh on June 21, 2004 - 9:58pm

Quadra 7100b - NuBus Slot Covers. Painted both in case I ever remove the ethernet card. Note two small spatters on one cover. A hazard of Molecubond -- I think they could solve this if they spent more

Quadra 7100b - During Painting

Submitted by tmtomh on June 21, 2004 - 9:53pm

Quadra 7100b - Another shot during painting. Ideally I would have had a third can of Molecubond. Then the paintjob would look perfect and the spatters would be virtually invisible.
