wii laptop hlaf done, LITERALLY

Post by OMGpedobear »

You may have heard me talking about my wii laptop and running it from a lead acid battery so as i dont have a decent camera a friend tk some pics at a robotics club attend. The bottom half is completely functional and just needs a screen that bloomin vga cable from amazon and some paint :).

I didnt have any bondo so i sanded down a blob of hot glue and covered it in super glue and sanded it hehe. Also does it look like a bbc micro to you?

You are now competing with SS for most hot glue used.

Quite a bit actually. Guessing most the guys here mightn't get the reference to one of the great British computers (ZX Speccy being the best). The Micro did have my favourite version of Elite though.

Reminds me more of the TRS-80 Model 100 to me. Embed a 7" widescreen in the top and it'd be a dead ringer for it. Of course, I've never seen a BBC computer in real life and only have a minor knowledge of such machines.

I have and still use a model 100, doesn't really remind me of it that much... I can't say much on the bbc micro thing though...

Looks nice, even with the 85 sticks of hot glue inside. I'm almost scared to see this thing finished... it's gonna be huge, but at least you will be able to actually play the games on it.
