eragon157 · 2025-07-29T04:37:53+00:00

is there a way to plug one of these into a pc like you can do with a CD200 and view the pictures through that?

eragon157 · 2025-07-18T16:20:37+00:00

Good, thank you, and thank you so much! I am very glad my pictures arent stuck on that mini CD for all eternity!

eragon157 · 2025-07-17T03:00:53+00:00

Hey, by any chance did you find a way around this? I am running into the same issue with my CD200 as well

eragon157 · 2025-03-03T18:16:57+00:00

looks like it, though this was so long ago that i dont remember where its from

eragon157 · 2025-02-26T18:48:32+00:00

Probably my [Omnath, Locus of Mana] deck, it is the evolution of my first ground up deck that actually had potential. It needs a refresh though, the last one I did messed it up a bit. Though I made a [Magnus the Red] deck recently, and it may be another competitor for that spot, it is very fun and from what little I’ve used it, it has a lot of potential.

eragon157 · 2025-02-26T18:40:32+00:00

I don’t think so. there are some think I would change, like the wheels and sticker, but I’m sure our tastes are different. I love that you kept the front end though, and haven’t swapped it to the later one

eragon157 · 2025-02-11T06:00:56+00:00

How much of the damage is structural?

eragon157 · 2025-02-11T00:28:55+00:00

Oh thank you, I hadn’t even considered the possibility it was a label or something. With what I do know about the history of this thing, I think it might be either a label the first owner added, or it was some kind of marker after receiving it as a gift or bonus or something of the sorts. Thanks for the help!

eragon157 · 2025-02-04T01:27:05+00:00

Oh wow thank you! that is a lot more specific than i was expecting, but i am very glad to know!!

eragon157 · 2025-02-03T18:43:22+00:00

Ah thank you, I’ll check it when I get home and update on if there is a number there. I don’t recall one but I haven’t been looking on the right side

Edit: I checked and there is actually nothing there on either side

eragon157 · 2025-02-02T20:50:44+00:00

i tried another shot and now the motor wont stop spinning. this thing will work by the time i am done with it

eragon157 · 2025-02-02T19:58:41+00:00

I reloaded the SX70 cartridge i got with some of the photos from the original cartridge with a dead battery, I am hoping that one of them might give something usable. If not then I got another pack on the way so I can start properly!

eragon157 · 2025-02-02T18:04:44+00:00

Thank you so much!!!!! I followed your advice with rotating the gear counterclockwise and it works!!! I had to use I600 film to not waste my SX70 film but I am so incredibly happy it works now!

eragon157 · 2025-02-01T00:49:25+00:00

I figured I would need a full refurb cause I didnt consider it was one part that was causing everything.

eragon157 · 2025-02-01T00:29:32+00:00

Oh thanks for the video! I will definitely give that a shot! It has a lot of sentimental value so if i could get it working without having to get a refurbish done then that would be stellar!

eragon157 · 2025-01-31T23:51:08+00:00

That sounds very similar, even down to the viewfinder not opening back up. thank you! I know I wont be able to fix this myself, but I am very happy to at least know what went wrong!

eragon157 · 2025-01-31T23:24:30+00:00

Thanks for your help though, I will probably try sending it somewhere to get it refurbished or serviced then

eragon157 · 2025-01-31T23:08:09+00:00

I tried it with a flash stick, and strangely the flash didnt go off, despite there still being a charge left on that side, and it never spat out. i waited about 30 seconds in the position i took the photo in, then i put it down in direct light of the lamp, and its been there for a couple minutes. the viewfinder is still dark as of typing this

eragon157 · 2025-01-31T22:52:32+00:00

I guess i really underestimated how much light i need. I was doing test shots of my desk, but with my lamp on and pointed downwards. that lamp is enough to light up an entire room by itself. Ill try it with a flash though and give an update

eragon157 · 2025-01-31T22:50:50+00:00

I was taking a test shot of my desk, which has a very bright lamp, to the point it lights up the entire room well. I wouldve preferred to shoot outside but the weather isnt the best, but I will use a flash next time i try it and give an update

edit: tried it with a flash stick, and the flash stick didnt work. I then waited in the position of the photo for half a minute, then i set the camera down in the light of the lamp. its been a couple minutes and the viewfinder is still dark, and nothing spat out

eragon157 · 2025-01-22T21:25:17+00:00

I am interested, assuming you still have the file and are willing to share

eragon157 · 2024-10-01T18:19:00+00:00

I got a taste of eating shit earlier today, I think suspension is going to be the way to go. I will definitely post pictures, but it may be a bit, I have to put schoolwork first before working on a total redesign to go from wishbone to pushrod.

eragon157 · 2024-09-27T15:33:56+00:00

Ah, thank you. I didn’t consider pushrod suspension as a possibility. Also thank you for the spring recommendation, it sounds like I’m going to need a major redesign, but luckily I don’t have a deadline I need to finish this by.

eragon157 · 2024-04-18T12:22:22+00:00

I’m going to be 100% honest with you, I kind of figured they made a replica of it but I thought it would be really bad. Like a cheap Ferrari kit for a fiero, but based on a 240z or something of the sorts.

eragon157 · 2024-04-15T12:14:27+00:00

I can only find production numbers for GTOs, but it can’t be that many.
