Is re-casing allowed? I've honestly been meaning to start a project like this for the past few months, I really hate the N64 controllers but I just love it's games..

Valium: Re-casing is only allowed for a small nominal fee.

Naw, go wild.

Anyone up for prize suggestions/donations?

Prize suggestion: Everyone who enters should put in $1 to a jackpot, let sparkfist handle the cash(an admin, not one of those so called mods!

)

I'd suggest Bicostp, he's much more active. But that's only like a $10 prize, and many here aren't old enough for a bank account.

ive stripped off all of the bondo, dremeled out all of the seams, rebuild all of the areas around the edges, spaced out and filled in a spot on the back and done reinforcing of the whole thing, i basically stripped it down almost to where it was in the first pic i took of it (peices of plastic hotglued together)

I have a question, to enter the bondo contest does it have to be made entirely out of bondo, or can we just use it to fill in cracks etc...I have an awesome idea I might do...

it's a legit question. I see some people just used plastic form controllers, or just made the whole thing out of bondo. QAnd when I'm new at this stuff it's expected. I can't get a simple answer on the internet anymore it seems...

something made entirely out of bondo would be extremely brittle. like brittle to the point of not being usable

Epoxy, however....

epoxy would be somewhat better but still no substitute for plastic
