Re: Game Boy Null

I love it! Laser cut acrylic has such a nice finish. Gizard’s right. You should consider kitting this out. It’s a brilliantly done project, and the custom theme is the icing on the cake. I can totally understand keeping it all to yourself, though :lol: BTW, you could tap the screw holes in back case...

Re: Octoprint or Astroprint ???

I've used octoprint for a few years. It runs on an (original) Raspberry Pi right beside my printer. I like that I can send a file directly over from slic3r, and not have to worry about it.

I can't wait to see what your surface finish looks like. I'm printing a case as well, but haven't really considered sanding or painting it.

Tinker's Printed CSO Build

Hi all, This is pretty early in the build process, and I'm taking my time. But I figured I'd share. Because I can't do anything the easy way, I want to use Kite's CSO with his 640x480 LCD. So I'm printing a case that's just a little wider than a DMG to accommodate the slightly wider screen. While I'...

Re: Printer bed

Late to the thread, as usual.

I’m using glass, with a quick coat of the best hairspray $3 CAD can buy. Works great. Glossy finish.

Re: Anyone from Canada here?

At first that seems a little high. Sales tax (HST) in most of Canada is 13%. Currency differences can play in though. So when the US dollar is worth $1.50 Canadian, 22 x 1.5 x 0.13 = $4.29. However, there are both taxes and brokerage fees. If you ship with a courier, they will charge the receiver a ...

Re: Gameshell Kickstarter

Oh, I should clarify. Not my circus, not my monkeys -- I'm not involved with this project in any way. YouTube just suggested the video to me.
