[SOLD OUT] 1mm Gorilla Glass with Silkscreen border

[devsfan1830]

How are you guys planning on sticking the screen to the Gameboy shell?

I was thinking epoxy carefully applied to the edge with a toothpick but I'm not sure if epoxy will bond to the glass and if it does I'm not sure I want it permanent should something happen to the glass to crack it. I have some 3M tape used to mount LEDs (https://www.amazon.com/Rextin-Meters-Do ... B00N7D62HC) that I think I can stick to the glass edge and trim to fit. If that doesn't hold then epoxy is the backup.

Measured without the plastic on?

Sure

Curious if there is any update of a case someone has/found that has a tight fit around day's glass protector?

Debating of using my case or sourcing another one to get the best fit on the glass.

That 10mm tape is too wide.

I used double sided clear tape that was 2mm wide. It was from 3M. It is exactly the size of Day's boarder on the glass. It works well. Strong hold all the way around but I could still remove the glass if needed. Here is the eBay link: http://m.ebay.com/itm/Adhesive-Tape-3M- ... 2064342386

Picture of my screen. No tape shown but screen held on well.

I bought the same tape and look forward to using it. Btw love you build. The clear shell looks so dang good! I tempted to switch over lol.

I know. I was just gonna trim the excess with scissors but if they make it small enough to not jeed to that works too. Thanks!

2mm 3M Doubleside Tape works very well!

Not that i know, but it looks like the original mold. Which seems logical, since thats the one that has been noted to have the best fit with the screen.

That is crazy how well it fits and looks so good. Pretty sure it's a OG shell cause I tried the screen cover on a OG shell I have and it appeared to fit very similar. Almost a perfect fit.
