DNA20 Cloned Board Box Mod

[EthelKing]

BaDaBooM - Bloody hell! Great minds think alike and all that! I do exactly the same thing with the screen now! I send the broken one to @bish to play with, but I made a mock up of a board with blank PCB for "planning purposes", and hole templates with crosshairs for drilling the holes.

Mind you, if I were making what you are mate, I wouldn't bother with cloned boards. They would sully the beauty of the finished work of art.

Quick question, how do you get the holes for micro usb sockets cutout accurately? I made a box mod with a charging board and was chuffed with the result apart from the shit job I made of the 'slot' for the usb

Sent by lazer from just north of the world's largest nuclear dustbin

I drill 2 3mm holes where the ends of the USB socket fit then a smaller hole between and then attack with needle files to join them up and flatten the top and bottom.

Thanks for the info, I've already asked the gf if I can get some needle files as the set I had have gradually disappeared over the years to leave me with an empty plastic wallet to prove I did have some.

That made me laugh Chegs. When I am looking for a particular tool, I know I've got one because there is either an empty case for it or a moulded outline or hole where it used to live! Why do the cases remain in the shed for years after the tools have fled?

Why do the cases remain in the shed for years after the tools have fled?

Usually because the pillock that removes them originally intended to return it,but forgets where they put it whilst using resulting in GF "putting it away somewhere for safe-keeping" instead of putting it BACK IN THE BLOODY CONTAINER!
If ever I find where she's been stashing shit for safe-keeping,I'll be rich/fully sorted with tools/save a fortune as won't need buy duplicates.

damn thats nice !

yeah itaste should get onto that. my vtr is really beginning to irritate me having to use the extension. i wonder if the guy/lady who did this had to file away any of the body to make it a flush fit for a 2mm atty or not. wouldnt mind sitting a dripper in their without the ring on and just using a pipe style drip to

Cut the ring and grind back the top casing with a dremmel I believe, there is a youtube but its in German
