I built up a GB Null2 and got the acrylic bits off wermy (thanks!) but having some minor issues:
1) Once I'm in the wifi config menu there's no way for me to select an option - I can move the highlighted select thing up and down, but "A" doesn't work to confirm the option anymore....and I can't exit the menu either...all buttons except direction buttons don't seem to work anymore...have to shutdown/restart to get out of the menu. Buttons work otherwise (eg playing gameboy games)
2) Acrylic case wise, I glued it up (solvent-ed it up?). After the solvent is applied I noticed the acrylic developed cracks. Some of the smaller pieces like the buttons had some cracks straight out of the box, but the larger body pieces definitely didn't, but definitely did AFTER I used the solvent on them.
Where did I go wrong?
Also, after taping the pieces together (body pieces) in prep for gluing, once the solvent is applied, it soaked along the tape and melted the sides, now I'm left with a rough surface along the sides where the tape was. This is purely a cosemetic issue...but is there anything I can do to fix it? If I sand it it'll become frosted...ideally I would want to restore it as close to the laser cut edge as possible.
Long shot I know. On the other hand ... cosmetic issue... I can live with it.
What could I do next time to avoid the solvent wicking along the tape? Is there a technique that I missed?
Pictures of the acrylic attached....
