Just ordered a transparent blue one for a future build, Ill post back here once it arrives.
Ah that might cause you some headache later. Ohkin's injection moulded shells are a modified version of Wesk's original design and are designed to fit ohkin's boards rather than 4layertech's. I *think* the top shell is mostly the same and *should* fit the same screen and controller PCB, but the bottom half of the shell doesn't have most of the screwposts or mounts for PCBs, cells, or the heatsinks. You can assemble an Ashida using it, but it'll be very fiddly.
Didn't know that, is there any particular reason that he has his own boards?
The V1 versions of most of the boards were open sourced so people could make their own, so he sells adjusted versions of the V1 PMS and GC+. The current 4layertech V2 and V3s are closed source for the present
Interesting, ill see if I can make it work.
wishing you luck, i have bought one of their shells and i have just received the shell
Its not 4lt compatible, is it?
just looking at the bottom and no it's not, there is no mounting holes it seems. you would most likely have to buy his parts on the store in order for you to finish the build.
i was comparing the shell to the aliexpress and the ashida and it seems that there are some difference that will most likely be tough to do. here's some pics:
possibly but definitely going to be some cutting for the ports.
Very very interesting... I'm a little surprised the back interior really is as empty as you said. I can see there exist some screw mounts in the handles, but there's really not a whole lot to work with. It definitely looks doable, but certainly not easy. Are there pictures out there of what these shells look like when fully assembled? I'm really struggling to understand just how everything goes together inside it. Adapting this to work with regular Ashida would clearly be an undertaking, but it seems so worth for the upgrade in shell quality...
