That my friend is an amazing case! How did you get the psone screen in there without bondo? Did you vacuum form that as part of the first mold? All in all I'm glad you spent a lot of time on it, as most of us would just try finishing it right away after its all wired up

He used a wood form and vaccuum formed over it.

The extra putty you see on the above photo is what I had to do to currect for the draft of the forming table. When you cut the shell from the mold, the bottom lines up perfectly with the other piece.

thanks for the pics marshal, that is really a great idea so you basically just took a big peice of wood and added some smaller peices to give it the shape you wanted, right?

Okay anotherperson, I'll remove it since you said please.
I think 2.5hrs is pretty good time, if he gets that good then I should be able to get 1.5hrs out of a 3300 mah battery.

Thanks for the comments guys

It makes all the hard work worth it when you people like it.

anotherperson wrote:Can I ask - how have you wired your batteries up?

It's simply a Polaroid BT41 Li-Poly battery, it has its own charging and protection circuits. To charge you just apply 9 volts to a set of terminals and it has an LED that displays when it's charged. I'd recommend this battery highly. I haven't tried running it while charging but I'd guess I would be able to.

anotherperson wrote:Also, Is your 2.5 hour run time on a CPU intensive game like Perfect Dark?

I played mostly Donkey Kong 64, so I guess you could say that. Also, the battery has been used quite a bit before so it's not peak capacity (maybe 3900mAh I'd say)

I'll leave that to the mods.

I double that, too bad there isn't a DPad or L button. That means no taunting in Super Smash Bros.

Wow. It feels like I died and went to heaven. But then they realized it wasn't my time, so they sent me to a Nintendo factory. But seriously, not only is that the best N64p ever, it's probably the smallest. I can just imagine playing Ocarina of Time now!
By the way, what is going to happen to your old case now that you've got this one? Is it possibly...up for sale?
