on my way....kinda

Post by Antwarrior »

So I went out and bought Ben's book today. Between my dad and I, I have have almost all the tools I need. I know of a few places to get a Snes mini...but I'm gonna feel bad tearing it apart. Oh well.

Since I'm building the snesp from the book (with the ps1 screen)...what does everyone else suggest for the case? I've seen the ones on benheck.com but I don't want to have to pay out my ass for one. What do you use?

like in the book. Use plastic sheets for the walls and aluminim for the siding. The book shows you how to bend the aluminum and stuff.

I've used a few of Triton's cases, and they are really great, and very reasonably priced. If this is your first portable, you should definitely use one of Triton's cases.

I'm sure that for a few dollars more, Triton will be willing to paint the vacuum formed case for you.
