Question, can the ps2 run without errors if you leave the DD unconnected?

Yes.

i haven't personally tried running the ps2 without free mc boot, but if it works without the DD connected and free mc boot, that's awesome :)
thanx for the confirm, hail :)

this is great for swapping saves to/from memory cards :)

thats an interesting regulator your using, where did you get it??

Its a TI Regulator PTN78020

They are a bit pricey ($30~), and I may be overdoing it just to run the PS2. But I'd rather have a beefy reg than one struggling to keep up, and I figure you cant go wrong with TI. Here's the specs:

I think there is also a 3amp version available. but the same price just about.
 
Did a flaxton of primer-ing/wet sanding yesterday, and just got the case all painted up. Turned out pretty good, I'm happy.

Gonna let it dry for like a week since I used regular metallic Rustoleum and some clear coat on top of it. Then pray I can actually fit everything in. XD
 
Why's my screen fogging up? Oh, right, it's because I'm mouth-breathing on the computer monitor while I stare at this sexy case with my jaw hanging open. Drool...
 
Thx everyone. :D

I know there are like 500 different types of PS2 Controllers, but if you happen to have the same one as me this could be useful I guess.

Its pretty accurate as far as I know. When I say "all other buttons common" I'm lying a bit though. R3 and L3 actually go to straight ground.

The thin red line is where I cut.
 
Beautiful case. also, the case looks really nice.

If your really want a tiny PS2 controller PCB, RDC at the BenHeck forums made a tiny custom board you can transfer the components from the original controller to. I have one right here, the dimensions are 42x20mm
