Hello everyone, how are you, I wish I had posted this topic earlier, but I was short on time, several things happened in my life that are irrelevant, but it was a hindrance to my time, I didn't want to present to you a project that was completely poorly done by That's why I invested a lot of time in renovating this project, to make it as organized as possible.

First let's go to the credits, I would like to thank the people here on the forum, without your publications I would never have been able to do something like this, such an advanced cut on the PS2 board is something really impressive.

In this laptop I decided to put 8 2800 mAh cells, but they are used cells that I already had stored here so they were not at their peak, and it is lasting an average of 4 hours of gaming, which for me is already something quite considerable since I don't even have one. time to play all this time, Carcaça is the best known as Frankcase, as I don't have a 3d printer so I have to find my way, I had a PS4 controller with a dead board, and I wanted to make a different laptop, as it is a homemade video game I don't have many files on it, everything I have I'm posting here.

I hope you like the result because I haven't seen this model anywhere yet, and I liked it so much here in the city where I live, I've already received several offers on it, but it's my favorite, I can't sell it .

I apologize if some words are wrong as I don't speak English so I have to write and then translate to post here :)

Not sure how I missed this in the feed. This is an excellent design. Well done!
Thank you very much :) I'm working on two other shells also made in PVC, I think they're going to be very good, I've improved my skills with PVC a lot since the first console which was quite grotesque, this topic is my second since it, I'm already on the 6th or 7th project, but I'm working on these two and then I'll make a topic for them, one of them I intend to do in the PS Portal model and the second I want to leave with a thickness of 2.5 cm. If I can achieve that, it will be a Fassanha since it is handmade in PVC :)

I appreciate you keeping the old art of franken-casing alive. I look forward to seeing more of your work!
Yes, these days it's much easier with 3D printers, but as I don't have one I have to look for alternative solutions, and Franken-casing just requires a little more work, but if you're whimsical it's very good :)

Plus you get the satisfaction of building it with your own hands the whole way along

Olá a todos, tudo bem? uma pequena atualização sobre este Ps2.P, infelizmente houve um pequeno acidente com ele, coloquei-o para carregar na mesa e fui trabalhar quando voltei minha esposa não tinha visto e tropeçou nos fios e o console caiu no chão, tudo dentro estava solto devido à queda, refiz algumas conexões e felizmente não houve problemas nem com a placa nem com a tela, mas o gabinete já estava rachado, então ao invés de tentar consertar este, decidi fazer um novo, pois este é antigo e o acabamento interno é horrível, vou deixar algumas fotos do novo eu fazendo isso me digam o que vocês acham?

Hello everyone, how are you? I'm here bringing an update to this topic about how the Playstation 2 Portable made with a Playstation 4 controller is turning out, I believe this will be the cleanest Franken-Casing you'll see today, following some photos of the project.

I had thought about making it to support a total of 8 battery cells, but as you will see later on, I ended up opting to put only 6 cells.

It will also have an internal 250GB SSD, which I will be able to access through USB port 2.

It will also have a micro memory card slot to play games via SD card.

In this part I had already finished the painting, and I had also finished applying the varnish.

As previously mentioned, a small accident happened with the first model in this topic, in this case this would be the V2 model, so here are some comparison photos between the analogues and adaptation of the old buttons and new models.

This will be the set of cells used in the laptop, these are new, unlike the old one.

At the moment it looks like this, it's taking longer than expected as I only have time to work on it at night, but I really like the result comparing the first version with it, in my opinion it looks very clean despite everything being done by hand.

Good and that's how it is, when I've made more progress I'll update this topic, I hope you liked the result, as I really like it, as well as being very comfortable to hold due to the rounded sides, see you later.:D

LOOK AT THIS CASE
it's beautiful

Both of these are expected and appropriate ;)

I'm sorry you're stuck with that composite video lcd controller, but I don't think there's an easy solution for the PS2 to enable even s-video playback. Regardless your project looks pretty awesome, you should thank your wife for betatesting the last version ;)

hello everything is fine?? I hope so, I'm glad you liked the casing, it really took work , and yes I thanked her later for taking down the Model V1, and that screen, incredible as it may seem, the resolution is very good despite being composite video, the screen is from one model and the controller is from another, a trick I made and it was much better than the other screens, when it's working I'll post a video of it here in this topic until
