Ooooh nice! Wish to get my hands on those as well sometime. I have two other ongoing builds (all gifts ). Better screen surround and better back buttons are the two things I need to improve!Lphillimore wrote: ↑Sun Jul 23, 2017 11:33 pmFear not I saved my Gorilla glass screen from Day for my SAIO build

Re: Eccho's GBZs
Very nice color combinations on those two builds!
Where did you buy the screen cover on your 2nd build? I think it would fit perfect on my next build the ones on kitshbent have too thin borders.

Re: Eccho's GBZs
Thank you!
I bought these at Deadpan Robot in the UK. Be careful what you ask for, the border is quite thick. I think it would better fit a "traditional" GBZ build where the screen comes from a BW screen for instance and you can then nicely hide the metal surround with it. With a Kite build, a thin border would be better. What I experienced is that some menus at the bottom are a bit hidden (vanilla retropie menu, some heavy text games, and the bottom lines of the terminal.
Good luck!
Edit: I checked for a link to give you, but it turns out I can't find it on their website anymore. I remembered it being out of stock a while back...

Re: Eccho's GBZs
I actually need atleast 2.5mm border for the top and bottom. This is for a KeDei 3.5" HDMI screen. It's wider than the BW screen i have and shorter width. The usual kitschbent screen has 1mm ithink.

Re: Eccho's GBZs
Yes this one! Sorry i quickly looked for it but didn't find it. 3mm is indeed thick.
Re: Eccho's GBZs
Thanks! And yes the battery cover is loose, I just followed Kite's guide! He would suggest using magnets to close the case but I used a bit of Velcro to keep it in place, just a small square. It doesn't need much as it is already quite tightly packed with Dextech's battery.
