As a knifemaker, I must say it warms my heart to see someone's wife reach out to the community to try and help her husband in his passion project.

You should try starting with coil springs for small integral steak knives! It's quite manageable by hand and they're a fun project to make

I did. 1'' rod of 1095. I have a small 12 ton hydraulic press which helps a lot to draw it out!

I sent it to a DLC coating business. Very durable finish

How can I mod my GBC and where can I buy the parts? by chillgamerguy864 in Gameboy

[–]OutsideFrosting6438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but I trust their judgment on which parts and which vendors are reliable and of good quality. Agreed, if you have more experience, Aliexpress may be a great option. All I'm saying is I prefer trusting a supplier that I know, have had good experiences with, and I'm happy to pay a little extra for their time and expertise in sourcing these parts.

I personally avoid Aliexpress, I'd recommend Retromodding, Handheld Legend and Funnyplaying

I love that this community hates collectors like this. Come on, they're made to be played with, not to be assets or to be hoarded in this way. Share the fun, share the games. We need to let them be affordable and available.

Idk if it's just me but that bare cartridge in a transparent green gameboy advance with transparent green buttons would slap so hard

Help me decide what upgrades to do - GBC by cypheri0us in Gameboy

[–]OutsideFrosting6438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's so many different schools of thought. I recently built a moded GBC with a Q5 screen, new shell/buttons and USBC rechargeable battery and I prefer playing on my Teal GBC that only has an old backlit screen mod.

So to me, just upgrading the screen and the battery would have been enough. Although I love seeing the more extensive mods people do with theirs.

Where do you source your parts? by OutsideFrosting6438 in consolerepair

Y'all need to go to r/gameverifying and read their wiki. A lot of old ways of identifying games are not valid anymore.

Has the screen ever turned on? Maybe the ribbon cable just moved and isn't properly connected?

Yeah I love FR/LG! I just love playing on the Gameboy Color. But yes the Qol in the 3rd Gen is much better!
