Looks good. I know how you are supporting the Micros, but I'm wondering how the NGPCs are supported since the cart goes in from the top. What kind of wood are you using for you frames? |

What kind of wood are you using for you frames? --- End quote --- Thanks. It's a little tricky. There are little suports underneath that fit into the headphone jack on the bottom of the NGPC, and then there's a slotted bar on top which protrudes from the back wall that falls in line with the cartridge port. A slat goes into the slot and into the cartridge port itself to hold it in place. I'm gonna guess that it's kinda hard to visualize :-\ I'll post more pics of it later. Oh, and it's just select pine. --- Quote from: e_brugal on January 22, 2016, 10:32:11 AM ---that looks great :o ;) i like your work man --- End quote --- Thank you! |

Love the look. I wouldn't mind trying to make something like that someday, but I don't have enough portables to fill it up, unless I decide to make one display case for all of my different portables together. --- Quote ---Oh, and it's just select pine. --- End quote --- That was actually going to be my guess. My wife wanted a small DVD shelf for all of our Disney/kids movies and the spot where we wanted it to go requried a very specific size that I could not find online. So I decided to make one myself which turned out pretty good (still need to stain the wood). It's pretty straight forward design. I didn't even bother taking a picture of it. I also made mine it out of select pine which I think looks pretty good. I really wanted to do it in oak, but I don't understand how anyone can afford to make anything out of oak with the prices they were charging for a board. Would have cost more than 3 times as much to get the same boards in oak out where I live. I'll pass on that. |

DSi XL collection is complete for now. There are 3 ugly JP-only limited models that I don't really want. Normal color GBC collection is done thanks to a berry arriving last week. Also pictures are JP-only transparent and Midnight Blue, plus aftermarket she'll orange and smoke/translucent black. Have a Pokemon GBC as well, just needs some love before it goes on display (or up for sale). And current 3DS XL/LL & New 3DS XL collection. |
