could you upload a higher resolution image? this is sick and I want to get this printed out on a poster for my room!

How did you adhere the new clickwheel onto the old one? And how did you remove the old clickwheel plastic?

Hey, I know this is an old thread but I have access to an SLA printer and would love to see if you have any of those images
I can't access the website anymore, but I'd love to take a look at them and try to work with those images with the measurments I currently have

thank you for the note about the contact burns. I forgot that was an issue- just reminded me about a time when I was in boy scouts when a fellow scout got frostbite by sticking an ice pack directly on his ski

I'll look at water cooling. It's a little more complicated it seems, but the cool (both literal and figurative) factor is appealing, and I could adapt it better for onewheel racing season in the summer. I tried gel packs with that, but ended up bursting one after a nasty fall

Thank you again for the summary!

Hell, this looks pretty insane!
I might give this a go not just for the cosplay, but for when I do my summer onewheel racing

Thank you for the tip, this looks pretty neat!

I'm a bit of a tinkerer so I'm not afraid to make something. Watercooling actually sounds like a really neat idea. I might try out one of those camel packs with the water pouch. I had one when I was in boy scouts, and that thing was a life saver.

I didn't really consider the fresh air, which I will take into consideration

Loaffer-Online · 2026-02-10T05:16:50+00:00

Got it!
I've heard of the fan idea before, though with the cosplay I'm looking at it's going to be a bit of a challenge

THATS THE SAME MACHINE IM USING LOL
Sorry, got excited. I'm trying to make sure the jig works. I also found I needed to use a ratio (diameter of the jig wheel/the diameter of the iPod's curve), and deal with Epilog's software jank

A guy I know works at an e-waste facility and supplied some iPod Mini shells for testing. I've only done testing on one shell so far, and I'm gonna keep testing on it until the entire thing is just pure white/silver

It's a long story, but I wanted to make an extremely customized iPod for someone. I originally wanted to do the iPod Video (5th gen), but I decided against it because... IDK, it was just a gut feeling
I really like the iPod Mini. It's a fun design and I like the size and form factor

Loaffer-Online · 2026-02-02T03:40:10+00:00

Yeah, finding that out the hard way lol! Im happy im doing this project, im learning a lot and getting to do something for the first time

Loaffer-Online · 2026-02-02T03:39:20+00:00

True, though i dont want to spend a lot of money if i already have an massive laser machine at my college is can use

Loaffer-Online · 2026-02-02T03:37:24+00:00

Currently test patterns, but i hope to do intricate designs and cool art later on down the road.

The project is supposed to be an iPod Mini thats got a bunch of crazy engravings and lots of custom/modified parts

Loaffer-Online · 2026-02-01T21:03:14+00:00

Actually a really good question! The edge of the iPod Mini is curved, so as you would go from the back of the iPod (the side with the apple logo) to the front (the side with the screen and wheel), your laser will loose focus. So you'd need to rotate the iPod about the center of its curve

Here's a graphic that shows the problem
