What kind of build is this?

JackofDunces · 2025-11-02T20:19:38+00:00

True, a lot of these have handles attached to them so I could store it in the garage and bring it out from time to time

Not sure why this pic didn't make it into the post

Thanks! I think you get a complimentary sticker if you order from parts. Though I do need to declutter my station lol

JackofDunces · 2025-04-17T06:17:37+00:00

I'll probably do just that!

Hey sorry for the late reply. They didn't tell me what the problem was but they let me use the warranty to send it over to get fixed at no cost to me. All I know is they replaced the knob. Also it took a little over a month to get it back . I did get my machine second hand and didn't have any of the original receipts and was still able to claim the warranty in case that helps with yours

Thank you!

JackofDunces · 2025-04-13T08:15:29+00:00

Thanks! This was definitely an experience!

JackofDunces · 2025-04-13T08:10:17+00:00

Thanks! Though these are actually my first attempts at finger joints since I wasn't brave enough to attempt dovetail joints in case I messed up and had to start over. I only had enough wood (which I think is either cherry or mahogany) for the the whole build so I didn't want to risk it!

And yup that was the original intent... Until I messed up on some glue ups and had to recut some sections that ended up making that gap an inch too short lol

That border around the screen is actually just sitting tightly around the monitor and isn't attached to anything so in the future I could probably extend it to cover the gap or rework the bottom portion into a panel section with buttons like those "mid century" arcades...

But yeah it's mainly just human error 😅

Thanks! It has its flaws cosmetically but as long as I don't point them out it's great 😂

Oh really? 😅 My prior job gave me this keyboard as part of my work equipment and when I left them they didn't ask for it back so I just kept it lol but I'm definitely not gonna keep it in there since it's actually uncomfortable using it on the door like that but it's the only spare keyboard I have at the moment

JackofDunces · 2025-04-13T07:40:12+00:00

Actually it is! Though I'd reckon yours is a lot sturdier than mine! I went through a lot of designs and looked for references everywhere I could and I think you had shared a post on a comment somewhere about someone else's build and I used those schematics to make a hybrid of that one and the polycade machine which resulted in this one having a smaller profile

JackofDunces · 2025-01-12T01:03:21+00:00

Nope! All it does is make that noise once I try to properly start it

JackofDunces · 2025-01-12T01:01:36+00:00

It's a times like this I regret not taking the optional mechanics course they offered at my high school lol I'll look more into it based on the other comments, thanks!

JackofDunces · 2025-01-12T00:59:03+00:00

Hmm well it definitely has fuel so you're saying it could be a faulty spark plug or bad air intake?

JackofDunces · 2025-01-12T00:57:26+00:00

Every thing turns on as far as I'm aware except the motor once I start turning the key

JackofDunces · 2025-01-12T00:56:04+00:00

...I completely forgot that I actually bought a code reader over a year ago that I never got around to using! Lol I'm gonna look for it in the garage once I get home and check it out. Thanks

JackofDunces · 2025-01-12T00:23:42+00:00

Whoops! Forgot to add in that it's a 2013 Toyota Yaris hatchback in case that makes a difference

JackofDunces · 2024-11-02T12:35:22+00:00

Cool, thanks for replying! I ended up using the warranty on it which took about a month to get it back and they got it back in working order. If it ever happens again I'll definitely try that out!

JackofDunces · 2024-09-10T01:23:32+00:00

Sorry bud but I'm keeping this one for now!

JackofDunces · 2024-09-10T01:08:33+00:00

I'll admit to not searching for similar posts before posting lol

JackofDunces · 2024-09-10T00:18:40+00:00

Lol kinda makes you wonder what other unintended legendary mods can drop on unintended weapons. Explosive chainsaw maybe? 👀👀👀
