Components:

• mattel electronic football handheld

• pi zero w

• pitft 2.2 no touch

• powerboost 1000c

• 2500mah lipo battery

• ethernet cable as wire (works but ethernet wire a little stiff. more flexible wire would be greater)

tools used:

• wire cutters

• solder gun

• dremel

• hacksaw and coping saw (for cutting aluminum screen plate)

• drill

• glue for gluing in components

my resources are limited, i didnt have a fine tipped solder gun at my disposal so i was using one of these, a real headache but with much patience it worked!

the gamepad pcb i was able to wire into gpio and use, and i plan on hooking up the 3 way switch to be 1. off and charging. 2. on and charging. 3. off and off?

to do:

• ad micro sd extender

• connect speaker for sound

• wire on/off switches (would like to add a backlight switch)

• add second plate on face (the first was a rough cut and has a slight gap)
