Chedda's #3 gameboy pi build

[Chedda]

Hey guys. I guess I might as well get a build thread going. This will be my third build and [mention]Helder[/mention] keeps making it easier and easier. I don't have all the parts and I believe that the AIO board will be the last to arrive and I'm fine with that. Helder did a fantastic job and I can wait.

Will you be doing a guide or updating pictures as you build? I am also using helder's board 2.0 version so i think i will be using your list as a parts list as i wasnt completely sure now what i no longer needed to get now that helder's board takes care of so much.

[Chedda]

I was planning on doing a builders guide the entire way. I have learned from doing certain things and making it look as much of stock as possible. I might be doing something special this time around. Stay tuned

[ontoptherock]

looking forward to it and following along. I am building two, one for me and one for the lady. Here's to hoping i dont mess either of them up lol.

[ontoptherock]

I hope you decide to document the process on YouTube

[Chedda]

It will be on my youtube channel for sure.

[Chedda]

Sneaky peaky at what I have done so far. Which one shall I choose? Testing Zero, Zero, testing Pi3, shrunken Pi3

Ive even cut the board until there is only one set of USB contacts to use Even smaller that way and I don't need 4 USB-s. 2 is enough. (one for expandable storage and accesories and the other for an external connection.

How far did you cut? To the test pads or to the through holes?

[Chedda]

No cuts on the pi for me. I am going to have the full board in there. The build process will show how I will get it to fit along with the stock battery compartment.
