JT-64 portable (Talakoski's Portable)

[Talakoski]

Ok I am starting a new N64 Portable which is going to be called the JT-64.
I am going to use:

ZN-45 case
Hori Pad/Mako Pad
Tact Switches
PS1/Zenith Screen
2 Lithium Polymer batteries (I am pretty sure each is 3.7v) So I should get 7.4v
1 Smart Charger (1.2A) for 7.4V Li-ion/Polymer Rechargeable Battery Pack -- UL listed
PCB for 7.4V Li-Ion Battery Pack (8A +/-1A Limit) (Not quite sure what this does yet?)
Headphone Jack
N64
Miscellaneous Buttons (For power)
Relocated Cartridge
Expansion Pack
Rumble/Memory Pack

Thats about it, let me know if I missed something or if I should add something! Anyways I am going to try my best. First of all here are the plans and I will get started opening the N64 soon.

* Also Will the screen be able to fit inside and fit with all the buttons? Some people mount on the outside because they say it doesn't fit...

Yes the screen will fit on the inside with all the buttons in a Zn-45 case.

Ok thanks I am going to open up the N64 and cut off those things. What do you suggest I do after that?

Ok I am going to Radio Shack today and I was wondering what I should buy. Ok I know I need Tact Switches but is there a certain size I will need. I am pretty sure you can't get the batteries there or the charger so I will look for a head phone jack thing, what would this be called and last thing for a ON/OFF switch I wanted to use one of those two way switches that you switch from side to side to side would that work for the power of everything? Thanks hope I can get some help...

Just to make everythin look nice I fill in the dips on the ends of the front of the case with wood filler. Then I sand it level with the rest of it. That way when you put the buttons in they won't be uneven. And it looks better imo. Also you need a dpdt switch at radioahack. Just ask for one. They know what they are.

Wouldn't it be better if you put L on the left side (under/over Z) and R on the right side?

Thanks for the help I will get on with buying the stuff but I am putting the L on the back because there is not much use for it. Also what do I do for a headphone and power jack? And is there a certain size you need for the TACT switches?
