i have started assembling all the parts i have and here is the current progress: matt

That is very nice looking, I like the contrast of the black buttons. Are you going to add a screen protector to it?

i have a screen protector on order but that will be the last thing that i fit as i want to try and do a custom paint job on the case when i have all the parts and have finished modifying it.

i have uploaded my custom parts to thingiverse for anyone that wants to use them

great work....

like the extra 3d printed part, im also using one of the screen frames (aiming for a no hot glue build)




like the look of the hdmi extenstion... hows that working out, and is it mini to full....


and how are you securing the top ..... glue or screws

hi, the hdmi is a mini to full swivel adaptor minus its case and i have not yet tested that part as i have yet to install anything on the pi as im currently away from a computer with an internet connection to download retropie to test it with.

The swivel adapter is a fantastic idea! Did it already come with all 19 wires soldered as seen in the picture? Or were they connected some other way?

the hdmi adaptor is as it came just removed from its case.

Awesome that looks great. The HDMI swivel is just what i need for my build, as I'm mounting my pi in the same spot. Is there enough clearance between the test pads side and the 3D printed part for wires? I had mine flipped over as USB data, TV and Power wires are all connected on that side, and had the Pi on the opposite side to the cartridge as you do.

nearly finished now all i need now is a power switch and the screen protector.
i may wait for the next run of the safe shutdown boards for the powerboost so i have just wired in a random switch for testing
