Announcing a modern box for the Atom
Announcing a modern box for the Atom
Hello everyone,
I decided that I needed a new cardboard box for my Atom a year or so ago, and wanted to do something original but based on some old advertisements I remember from back in the day, but with all fresh artwork.
So I came up with this. There's even a cheeky pic of Chris Curry on the inside, along with space to store an extra few bits and bobs.
In case you want to make your own, I posted the SVG and how I got this made here: https://github.com/ak15199/atom-box

Thank you both. Here are some more pics. The box has been sitting in the garage for a year, so my apologies for the dust!

On every photo that just got better 'n' better.
That is one fantastic box. Acorn would've shifted plenty
more Atoms BITD with that creation.

That box is amazing!
Thanks for making the design available for download!
I'm curious if we have more lovely Atom related artwork. T-shirts perhaps?

Re: Announcing a modern box for the Atom
You're welcome. I''m curious to learn about your experience if you get to print one.
Also, I'm sure I could come up with some artwork for "merch" but haven't dabbled with any vendors and somewhat embarrassed at the idea of profiting from the community. Glad to give it a shot if folks are interested though.
Re: Announcing a modern box for the Atom
Yes there is:
It was created on my request by Apparel of Laughs. You can buy them at https://appareloflaughs.co.uk/product/a ... s-t-shirt/. They also have Electron and Beeb shirts.

Do you also have one that has the ATOM horizontal?

Re: Announcing a modern box for the Atom
It does look amazing. Is there anywhere in the UK that can do the same? My Atom doesn't have any poly inserts either... I wonder if anyone knows if they can be made to order too.
Re: Announcing a modern box for the Atom
Any "Acorn" mug or key ring ?
