Question about CNC kits... and book

Post by |TA|SolidSnake »

hey so i just had a few questions about the kits and book. First off im stoked, im going to the book store when i get out of my class, cant wait. Ok so i was wondering would it be easy to make a case or am i better off just buying the case from the site. what can you make cases out of? and also how hard would you say it is to build one of these suckers, im going to build a ps1 for my first. how good is the book on helping you with your projects?

Thanks for any info, and i will keep you all updated with my build :D

Love the Solid Snake, and I would RECOMMEND, the Ben case. Polished, and it improves loyalty by 20% :wink:

Plus, the CNC PSonep is one of the best ones from the book, on the contrary, the hand-built one (even if you buy the plates precut for) is extremely difficult and fairly ugly, despite other things. I'd say buy the CNC kit if you're ok at soldering.

If you're just interested in building the thing, the book tells you everything you need to know. If you want to learn how everything works and how to go crazy with it all on your own, stick around here.

Edit: You can make a case out of just about anything. I think I've just about seen it all in this forum. Take a look around and you'll get some good ideas.
