looks pretty good. any idea when the electrical will be done?
you should sand the plastic around the edges and get it fluch to the metal.

Lol, the metal is extremely uneven, I screwed up forming it! It just wouldnt stay! But whatever. Anyone else think the start button is way to close to the screen?

i noticed that and i think it may giove you a problem. but you might be fine if you can just slip a tact switch under the screen pcb

I think I'll just cut off a bit of the side of the button, but leave the front intact
no one will see it coming

i got the perfect solution: make your own very thin button! here's how you do it:

One problem. With that setup you'd etiher need some some of chip to keep it on or you'd need to hold the button while you play.

Perfect solution for that!

You put some weather stripping or cotton strips around the border of the bottom copper plate, so it gives a squishy feel and makes it stay up!

So it's been a while. Leave me alone Ive been busy

Anyways, I managed to get a bit done. Haven't installed the mobo yet because, uh, it decided to go on strike. Yeah.

Here's a pic:

It'll look much better when painted. Trust me.

Where'll the start button go?

I really like your case design - it's unique and looks pretty ergonomical, too. I'm inspired...

Clear stuff is rad. I totally wish I had a clear GameBoy case for my Genesis portable. Your N64p looks cool.

cool case, it turned out really good looking

joevennix · Post by **joevennix** » Tue May 02, 2006 4:45 pm

Oh, the start button will go wherever I want, since I'm tired of it complaining about cramped space.

I'll probably end up sticking it somewhere off to the side, you really don't use it too much.

Also, the case design was the result of many English classes worth of doodling. I like it
