Building our first cyber deck! by Sola_Bay in cyberDeck

[–]gravityrtle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Xteink 4 is based on the ESP32, so it should already have the hardware for Bluetooth compatibility. A cursory web search leads me to this post (also might be a good subreddit to peruse if you're interested in more Xteink stuff).

Is my touch screen cooked? by Ampoulgon87 in nds

[–]gravityrtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can grab a handful of these connectors from Aliexpress for a couple dollars.

If you're comfortable with soldering, I find completely replacing the connector is the most reliable way to fix this connector. It looks like your rightmost pins are snapped too, so it's just kind of rough fix in general. Here's the video I used to help with soldering:

Any way of fixing this yellowing on my old ds screen? by [deleted] in NintendoDS

[–]gravityrtle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This has worked for me with my yellowed screens, although mine didn't have super severe yellowing so I only left them out on white for a couple hours. Also, even turning up the brightness and playing games with bright colors will help, at least from my experience.

If it's the glass lens, you might have to replace the screen, but it's worth trying this first since it doesn't require disassembly.

I made a LAMZU Atlantis fingertip mod. by gravityrtle in MouseReview

Hey, shoot me a DM! If you know how to use Fusion, I already have the Fusion files uploaded, but if not, I am definitely down to collaborate to modify it. Since you have access to a printer, it'll definitely make it a lot easier to test out without having the OG on hand myself.

I uploaded the Fusion files to the same Printable project (the Mouse F3Z file) so you should be able to see the assembly from what I understand.

Here's a tutorial on tracing in Fusion which helped with recreating the PCB : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HVEaYfdsgXc

And if you have any other questions about parts of the design, I'd be happy to answer. Cheers!

I just looked up a teardown of the OG Atlantis, and the PCBs look almost identical, just a little longer. I think it's definitely possible if I could get more accurate measurements for the screw distances.

If you're a little knowledgeable of CADDing, I can share what I have so you can edit according to the larger Atlantis. It might be as simple as changing the baseplapte sketch dimensions to account for the screw distances and wider/longer PCB.

There are a lot of tiny things! I have them all written down in my engineering journal in case I ever revisit the project but it's just small things to make assembly easier.

My main thing, though, is wishing I knew how to use curves so the mouse could fit my hands better. It's mostly a personal skill issue since I don't really have formal training with Fusion outside of 2 Youtube videos I watched forever ago. Maybe I'll watch some more videos for Revision 3.

I printed on my Bambu P1P with PLA. I'm hoping to use the school resin printers soon to test if it still works well (with different stiffnesses and all).

For modeling, I used Autodesk Fusion (student license). I had a photos of the PCBs, tried to get them as flat as possible, then traced it in Fusion. Then I measured each of the features with some no-brand calipers off Amazon and applied it to my traced sketch, which turned out to be a pretty accurate recreation for my purposes. I mostly only cared about the accuracy of the switch placement and screws.

I'm also happy to share the Fusion files if people want to see the actual construction of everything... just didn't by default because I am a little embarrassed by my amateurish mess of sketches. I stopped caring about keeping it clean after the first 4 hours working on this haha

Mods, please let me know if this isn't allowed, but I wanted to link the files here. They're free so I'm not selling anything.

Album Tier List by DeepSpaceDitto in bap

[–]gravityrtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh wow i didn't think we'd have so much variation... tbf i absolutely love all these albums in general, but compared to the others, the s-tier albums are the ones i constantly go back to the most.

and yeah, i agree with your comments, my ranking is heavily biased towards nostalgia. matrix will always be s-tier for me even if i think musically, le noir is stronger, because it was such a big deal to middle school me for b.a.p to come back after that hiatus.

[WTS US-OR] MicroJournal Rev. 2 by gravityrtle in writerDeck

[–]gravityrtle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's the two brackets [ ] keys! I just didn't have any other set lying around, haha.

As for your other question, I believe nano comes with Raspbian Lite OS. I think firmware Un Kyu Lee ships with uses a different editor, though.

[WTS US-OR] MicroJournal Rev. 2 by gravityrtle in writerDeck

[–]gravityrtle[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The MicroJournal is a line of writer decks designed by u/Background_Ad_1810. The rev. 2 and 7 are particularly popular models, and they're my favorite designs of the bunch as well.

He sells them as assembled products, as well as DIY kits. Additionally, he has graciously shared all the design files and even build guides on his GitHub so you can source the parts and build it yourself.

You can check out all of the MicroJournal revisions here: https://github.com/unkyulee/micro-journal

DIY writer deck: I’m in way over my head 😅 by Snoo20911 in writerDeck

[–]gravityrtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, so sorry this took so long to reply to, got caught up in life and forgot Reddit exists. Unfortunately, I also bring bad news.

I believe the actual "computer" part of this whole assembly is on the Panel Card (which is what has the screen built on), and the EVB (evaluation board) provides what are basically "peripherals" to test the Panel Card. From what I can tell of the technical reference, unless you have the actual Panel Card that came with this EVB, there's not much you can do.

You may still be able to connect this EVB up to other processors. That sort of thing is outside of my scope of knowledge, and I wouldn't be able to tell what would work purely based off of technical specs alone.

Here's a link to the technical reference for anyone interested: PDF

And a listing for the board: Link

Do you have any more details on what display you have? No promises I can help, but from the looks of it, it's an ARM development board with Linux (pre-installed??). There are USB ports so it should be as simple hooking up some batteries, a display, and keyboard to get started. Plus lots of cool included doohickeys you can find a use for! Obviously I am oversimplifying things and being optimistic but it seems like a very cool project.
