This is a 1:10 scratch build polystyrene scale model I made in 2020 of the HP264X terminal, originally introduced in 1974. This miniature has a tiny oled display to simulate the terminal in function. More pictures in thread (1/3)

The model is entirely mode of polystyrene. At the time of making it I thought of using the OLED to turn it into a desk clock. More interesting fact about the HP264X: it was an "intelligent" terminal, powered by a 8008 or 8080 microprocessor. It also had a very interesting wide screen display which was uncommon at the time (2/3)
