Re: What Type of Paint is suitable to paint the case?

Re: Help fixing cosmetic mistake

Yeah. Probably painting the entire shell is the only sure way to hide it, but then you will need new button labels too. Not sure which hassle is easier, starting over or painting. I would suggest possibly painting a symbol/logo with a stencil over that spot, but it’s so close to the button I’m not s...

Re: Game Boy Null Kit

Yeah. I was tempted my self to order tinted acrylic, but I knew I wanted the first one crystal clear. It just looks so cool like that.

Re: [UPDATE] "Air duct" and "fan-mount" for kites circuit sword

Variant 2: Simple fan mount I designed a little bracket which can be used to attach the fan nicely (hopefully :lol: ) to the CM of kites circuit sword. Then fan can be fastened with up to three M1 screws (I used the normal little "phillips head screws" from a 3rd party gameboy shell). To make it fi...

Re: Nintendo Switch Buttons...what do you think??

I definitely like the look a lot. I agree with Helder on the fit. Maybe you can lighty sand the holes to open them up a litter bigger so that they pop out more.

Re: Veteran's Nintendo DS Pi Zero Build

Wow! That looks great. I was about to ask about the hinges as well but I see your pics above. Cool custom decals on the back as well.

Definitely interested in seeing the process when you post it.

Re: My First Circuit Sword Build - Custom Painted US SNES Style

Probably won’t work with the snes cartridge, but on my build with a full gameboy cartridge (not cut like yours). I used a dremmel to cut a strip off the metal shielding piece just above the bottom? two screw holes. I then filed down the rough edges and covered it in electrical tape the friction kee...
