I made a case for my nes games out off a Adidas shoe box. The Nes games are are a perfect fit.
I worte it with pencil becuse I dont have a sharpie.
If you look at thethe case ypu can see the magnetic latch I made.
I like he way my nes games fit in there. It looks right.

Re: The Afternoon projects thread.

Yeah, I have to change the bulbs though. The turn signals have to be amber or red. Thanks!Tibia wrote:Wow. That's legal where you are? It looks great, though. And that plate is so made of win.

That "Moms Make Memories" pillow is AWESOME. How long did this take you to sew? Surely, it can't have taken an afternoon like you're suggesting.schmellyfart wrote:

Re: The Afternoon projects thread.
Coming from a guy who makes his money in a body shop this is awesome. The styrene was a great way to be cheap but what realy makes this is how well you did it. The end result is very clean and looks just as good as the big money customs. Great work man!
copulate all you goddamn smartasses.

Re: The Afternoon projects thread.
I guess I'll post mine up, got the idea at a 4th of July party after burning my hand lighting fuses all night, finally got all the stuff to do it.
Here's my firework launcher.
Internals
Lid Internals
TOP VIEW - off
TOP VIEW - on
Angled VIEW - on
To ignite the fuse I use 10ohm 1/4watt resistors held on by alligator clips connected to about 50ft of speaker wire

Re: The Afternoon projects thread.
Here's my project... It's a solder fume extractor! Made from a power supply fan, it runs off of a 12v transformer and sucks solder fumes away from you. Spend an afternoon to lengthen your life. w00t.
If you are going to build this, us a wall wart that is around 12v or lower and has a milliamp rating as close to your fan draws as possible, as transformers change voltages based on current draw.
It's mounted to a harbor freight helping hands with a bolt going through the screwholes and tightened into the spot for an alligator clip.

I don't get it...where does it put the fumes? One foot away from you?
