NESp from book with changes (56k Warning)

[nintendoguy]

A few weeks ago i got ben's book, and it was awesome, so i decided to build a NESp. i hand built the case with my grandpa's skill saw, and it came out great. i do not have the screen yet, but every thing else is wired. i added a player 1 port, a/v out and a charge jack.

Can anyone guess what the sides are covered with?

Aluminum Duct tape?

Great job! I like the blue tape on the foam spacer. A/V out is a great addition to the design.

[chainfire95]

what do I win.

[nintendoguy]

It is just standard duct tape. the best thing after hot glue. The a/v out was not hard to add, but i have 2 jacks. 1 for video out and 1 for headphone/audio out. it was fun to figure it out.

[nintendoguy]

no. you dont win anything. you said aluminium duct tape, not standard

EDIT: sorry for the Double post

Looking pretty snazzy for a first attempt! Keep it up!

I've found that grandpas usually have the best/coolest power tools Uncles, too.

and i only burnt myself twice with the soldering iron, so that is good. i still need the screen, batteries and a heatsink before it is done

I'm diggin' that totally custom speaker grill

I got all of the soldering done, but then i figured out i fried the nes board geting the expantion slot out so i have to buy a new one

[nintendoguy]

I finally got a new board about a year later. paid more for the new board then i did for the original system. hope to finish it tomorrow, and finally show it off.

i just need to remember how i wired it. its been so long
