OK, saved it....sort of.
Kites fan arrived today as well so I am just going to pretend that I always wanted to do it like this for the nice view and better cooling

Sure, make it much worse =D Here is a timelapse: - find "cool" buttons - remove old stuff and figure out that the holes are too close together - make them bigg...

I also spent another hour trying to 3d print a ...
Nice work! I finished mine too using the CS, took about 2 hours (3 if you include my futile attempts to print tiny back buttons and wells). I am holding off on posting for now (it looks pretty much exactly like yours for now), maybe when I get the missing pieces (forum battery, screen surround, bett...

It does look and feel ...
