I need a bracket for this screen :-)

Or some 3D printed screw bracket so that I can screw the two halves of the case together.

For anyone interested (it been done but no one posted it here) you can shave off 1 mm on the screen by carefully bend away the ribbon cable and cut off the white plastic part on the screen.
I do not have a dremel so I have to sand the two sides of the front half of the case by hand now the screen fits, just a little tight.

these might be of some help.....

HDMI ScrewBracket.stl

HDMI Button Wells.stl

place the screw bracket at the top and the button wells at the bottom, and the screen should slide in....

HDMI BWELLS with Analog.stl

this is a prototype, i havent used it so it may not be 100% (but its for anyone who wanted to add an analog stick)

hdmi gbz.stl

this is the one i used, but i have to modify it with a dremel to get everyting to fit right (where i placed the Pi Zero)

I don't suppose you'd share those files for those holders? I'm basically copying your build because it's so clean and awesome and would love to have those printed as well

Ok I'm missing something. Where are the audio and power strip stl files uploaded too lol? I found the screen surround/power bracket/button guide but am not sure where to look for the audio/power strip files

edit: lol ok I found them. Thanks again!

How about the rear button caps - were those already posted somewhere? I didn't see them. Would you mind sharing? They look very nice. How do you like the feel of them?

Hey again! So now that my parts are starting to come in.

2 quick questions.

How did you secure the audio/power/power strip pcbs into the holders

How did you secure the holders onto the actual case? thanks!

Hi @veterangamer and all others. I´m new here and just want to say, I was thinking about doing my own Gameboy project for a couple of weeks, but this forum and especialy this thread just made me order everything finaly.

This one is one of the best builds I have seen so far. I love how clean it is an how original it looks.
Great one.
My own one will hopefully hold together at least, but it´s very nice to see what´s possible and how dedicated people are. And of course to get some ideas.
Thank you. I´m sure I will have questions later too :D

I ordered the Battery you used and got it. It has a tiny little board on it. Do you know if it´s a safety circuit for preventing overcharging or if should buy one?
