    Buying some things.

    Found a buyer for the Kindle. Things I'm looking for: N64 controller or two. A/V cable. Intact Xbox 360 case to replace my broken one with. Power hookup for the Xbox 360. Heatgun and other odds and ends (washers, screws, etc.) for x-clamp fixing/reflowing a 360.

    Help me out.

    So, we're all aware of the tremendous heat the DMG gives off, correct? That's why I want to water-cool it. However, I've got no DMG to reference and even if I did, I wouldn't know what parts give off the most heat (it's all like one big oven to me). Unless I know where to have the water flow...

    Schematic for Touch-Switch.

    Borrowed the book Workbench Guide to Electronic Projects you can Build in your Spare Time, and found this schematic for making a touch switch. I know SDH over at BH had asked about this for a PS1 and people told him he'd have to dissect a touch-activated lamp in order to have this work. However...

    EL Wire, etc.

    How would I go about hooking EL wire up to a PulseVU? I know it can be done, so that's not an issue. It can't be as simple as hooking up the wire as if it were an LED.

    OH GOD THE SHAME (RuneScape accounts) D:

    HURR HURR HURR. Yes, I know it's lame. I was young and foolish, and so I wasted a ton of time on RS. Definitely willing to trade, especially for a DMG + like $10. Offer me that and you can have it. Heck, make a nice offer on the first one and you can HAVE the second one free. >_> FIRST...

    Items of interest on DealExtreme.

    I'm making this thread to save Epicelite and Eurddrue some time making it themselves. This thread is also useful for those that really can't be bothered to dig through DE's countless items for the truly useful stuff. ELECTRONICS DIY: 1mm solder 0.6mm solder Flux Heat-shrink tubing Heatsinks IR...

    OH MY GOD, YES.

    I was looking for ideas for an N64 casemod and ran across this. If this game does what it says it'll do, it may just be enough reason for me to keep my DS. Thoughts? EDIT: ShockSlayer should totally get these shoes.

    Mix and Match - Anyone Interested?

    I want to pull a ShockSlayer and take the cases from two different DS Lites and mix and match their parts, basically creating a two-color DS. Problem is, I don't want to go out and buy a black DS just so I can have one cool-looking one. That's where you come in. If you have a black Nintendo DS...

    Caseless DVD player, anyone?

    Standard 7" LCD DVD player. Composite input. Runs off 7.2v, but can run off 7.4 easily. I will include the screen, mobo, speakers, batteries (7.2v nimh, 4000mAh) and disc tray. I was going to use it for a portable, but I've decided against 7". Too big for the portable. I'd be willing to sell it...

    Analog, analog.

    I'm adamant in making at least one of my portables Steampunk-ish, and that means no digital displays and whatnot. Wood casing, brass trimmings/buttons, etc. What I really want to do is take something like this and combine it with a battery life indicator, sitting at the top left corner of the...

    Recipes!

    I was looking through my fridge, hoping to find something quick to eat, when I noticed the carton of eggs we had. I then noticed all the vegetables and whatnot we had lying around, so yeah. PRETTY MUCH THE MOST UNORIGINAL BREAKFAST FAJITA EVER: Eggs (I used 6, way too many) 1 Bell pepper...

    Shameless ripoff idea.

    SDH over at BH was finishing up his one-handed NES controller (the NEShuck), and I was thinking: Why not do the same with an N64 controller? Of course, a one-handed N64 controller would be horrible, considering the original controller was built for three different handling positions. The...

    Guides

    Okay, so we're missing out on quite a few guides because plagiarism is "wrong". Are we going to flat-out omit those guides from these forums or does someone have a plan? I'd say somebody should take the time to paraphrase a guide, draw out their own diagrams, etc. in order to "legally" post the...

    Cartridge copier?

    http://modthis.com/2008/09/24/retro-con ... r-the-z64/ This has probably already been seen and discussed, but daaaang. Despite the fact that it looks HUGE, that thing could be useful. I never did see the discussion about this, if there was one. Could this thing be cut down considerably? Man...

    Batteries, yay~

    I'm getting four 7.4v 2200 mAH li-ion batteries (with charger) from omgitsthebishop over at BH. $15 for them sounds amazing, considering they're like $35 each at some stores. From what I've seen, they look like this: Most likely camcorder batteries with their own protection circuits. My...

    "Art" (56k beware!) [REPOST]

    Does anyone here draw or something to that effect? Post it here. I'm curious as to how many people on these boards have an artistic side to 'em. No, in this case, your portable doesn't count as "art" (even though they do tend to be beautiful). :P As for me, I don't consider anything I do to be...

    REPOST, YEAH YEAH YEAH~

    There are several reasons why you shouldn't even glance at this thread, the first (and most obvious) being my post count and how recently I joined. I'd be suspicious too, put in anyone else's position. Another reason is that I'm not even completely sure I'll be trading the items I'm listing or...
