I clipped the hooks off the floor of the IIci and the rear. Modified by lengthening the first three rear slots. Took the top off and customized a PC power supply, then installed it upside down. Carved the outlet holes larger. Placed a '486 server motherboard, with IDE and SCSI hard drive connections, in the box. Added a Trident ISA video card; and a mouse and printer dongles to the trimmed slots, screwing them into place. Sloppily carved the floppy slot into a cavern, ;^) , and, using the existing hard drive/floppy drive bracket, pushed the carriage into its home. The PC floppy drive fits, kinda, into the newly carved cavern. I'm gonna seal up the oopses and photograph it, adding it to my Website menagerie.
