Taking a quick break from the larger machine refurbishments let's do a quick project on one of my favourite consoles, the Vectrex. We're going to build a different take on the 3D Imager, one of the rarest and most expensive things you can buy for the machine.

Whilst there are projects that attempt to fully recreate the original colour wheel based Imager we're going to take a simpler option and put together a version made by Mountain Goat.

Parts used:

Stripboard with isolated pads (e.g. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/332626034917)
