but isn't turbo only ONE of the vac forming gods????(Dkap counts too...)
anyway, thanks for the compliment, CTF I had my friends dad, which he is very good at wood working, cut the mold out of wood, but I had to sand it... which is like 75% of the work put into the finished product.

it is a nice mold. what kind of wood is it? I usually use pine but it's a pain to get the case off of the mold. this was slightly less of a pain

ummm, dang, I don't really know what kind of wood it was, but if I find out I'll tell you.

do you thing that the controller above the 1st party controller could be hacked to use a gcn joystick(or in other words, do you think it uses pots?)

I need to know this because I might possibly buy this off ebay...

Wow.

Anyways, if I had to take a guess, I'd say yes. If it does have a potentiometer in there, which it probably does, then you'll probably be able to use a GC joystick with it. The only real way to test it out is to crack the sucker open and start looking around!

ok, i was thinking that it did, but i just noticed that it comes with an rf adapter, so I don't get to add another composite hookup to my abnormally large collection of them.

oh well, it comes with games too, so its a steal

Is it still possible to get free DC to DC converters from TI? on the product page thing when I click the "purchase samples" link, all that happens is that the page scrolls down a bit.

Yea you still can.

thanks for that link, it actually work now.

but the description says it needs a resistor to adjust output voltage, so what resistor do I need to get?

Master of Portables · Post by **Master of Portables** » Fri Jun 22, 2007 2:32 pm

just have to say my dc to dc converter came this morning, so yay(and it was free) i'm in the process of getting an n64 from ebay, but I picked one out so I'll get it soon enough...
