Re: The phoenix cube BORN FROM THE ASHES OF THE WINGMAN!

My only concern is that you didn't use enough hot glue.

nah, it looks great.
 
Re: The phoenix cube BORN FROM THE ASHES OF THE WINGMAN!

Dang almost a month before another progress update, this thing is going slow, probably slower with school starting tomorrow, but I intend to catch up with shockslayer.
Forming the case is what I procrastinate the most on, seriously nothing kept me from making these over the past 2 weeks.

Well should be more updates coming out more frequently.
 
Re: The phoenix cube BORN FROM THE ASHES OF THE WINGMAN!

Looks great man! I agree, case making is a pain in the ass. I always procrastinate on it.
 
Re: The phoenix cube BORN FROM THE ASHES OF THE WINGMAN!

I'm building another portable next weekend. It takes a ton of pressure to make a diamond.

That’s what I always say.

It looks textured but it's going to be sanded down smooth, the only abs I could get was textured.
 
Re: The phoenix cube BORN FROM THE ASHES OF THE WINGMAN!

That actually looks really good. Im using ABS Plastic as well, and it has 2 sides, textured and smooth. Which side shhould I use? Also did you wire that wiikey to the plug or the FFC? Looks really slick, keep it up! :D
Edit: Never mind, saw your pic, where you wired it to the FFC.
 
Re: The phoenix cube BORN FROM THE ASHES OF THE WINGMAN!

That case looks Dang sexy so far Ben.
 
Re: The phoenix cube BORN FROM THE ASHES OF THE WINGMAN!

Thanks guys!

Tonight I should be able to cut out top ports for the sd card slot and memory card slots, after that do more refining on the controls and adding holes for the buttons on top such as power and the memory card switch.

I also need to get onto that auto wiikey switch, make sure if I can get it to work or not.

I also need to rebuild the trigger assembly, the Q tip idea actually gives too much flex to it.


So pics or possibly video update tonight or tomorrow.
 
Re: The phoenix cube BORN FROM THE ASHES OF THE WINGMAN!

Got some more work done on the case, the only thing left on the front now is the speaker holes and the low led light.

I should be able to get to work on that circuit for the wiikey soon. Other than that more work on the case soon.

More work done on the case.

Re: The phoenix cube BORN FROM THE ASHES OF THE WINGMAN! 9/2

Probably just an accurate representation of the feeling me and people are getting about how long it's taking me to finish this thing.

I haven't been giving you guys anything to chew on.
