Mischief's GBZ V1 Finished
Posted: Tue Nov 15, 2016 4:22 am
First build is finally done, So here are the pictures of everything i have done.
Quick look at the inside:
[spoiler="Inside"]Main shot of the inside:

Left half holding the Pi Zero and Camble's safe shutdown PCB with reset switch

Right half holding Helder's AIO board, the screen, wifi card, volume pot and speaker.


I wanted to put some better wires for the USB devices so i cut up an old iphone cable, as the outer casing was a bit thick i stripped it keeping the insulation part intact and twisted the wire I then used some thinner heat shrink to cover it back up:

Next I wanted to keep the battery bay as is so here is what I did to utilise the space I had:


I put a piece of 5mm fibre optic cable running from the charge LED's out through the bottom of the case:


Then finished it off by cutting up an old DVD case to create a cover:

Special thanks to @wermy for his great original guide, @Helder for his fantastic work on the AIO PCB, @solder for the 3D printed parts he provided for my build, @Camble for his work on the shutdown PCB, @dominator for the square screen protector and @CaptainDurden for designing me a great black and yellow cartridge label
.
If I have forgotten to thank anyone then I apologise as my memory isn't that great, I welcome any comments that may make my V2 build better
Cheers
John
