Do I really need button wells?

Post by LordoftheRaccoons » Wed Aug 01, 2018 3:15 pm

I am building a Gaboze Pocaio with snes buttons on the front and using the Game Boy Pocket Buttons on the back. In the guide on the Gaboze Pocaio github page he just super glues the buttons on the silicone pads. I have access to a community 3d printer, but it's only open 2 hours a day 3 days a week, so I basically have to schedule my entire day around getting the wells printed. Also, has anyone made Game Boy Pocket button wells? I'm not familiar with CAD and don't know how to make them myself.

You shouldn't need button wells for a gaboze. I've build three with pocket buttons and did not require any extra buttons wells.
