Worklog Switch-alike Portable

[Predue89]

Heey, that's an awesome work, did you tink of adding a HDMI port or some sort of video input? Is always nice to have a second monitor wherever you go.

I did think about adding a HDMI port for an external monitor. But not the other way around xD. I don't have no use for this...

Oh, I see it super handy, because I'm studying computer engineering, and I have too screens on my house, so for example I can put a Datasheet on one screen and Proteus (microcontroller simulator) on the other, but then when im on the university I only have the screen of my laptop, so when I saw your work I thought "That's super handy, I could play during my train time and then use it as a secondary screen" xD

Oh and I forgot to tell you, amazing work dude

That fit...

Excellent planning! Can't wait to see more!

I would really like to call it Swiitch. Because ... reasons xD. It looks like a switch (to a certain degree) and contains a Wii.
But I have a bad feeling because the name is already in use

Oops. I literally changed my worklog name yesterday morning. Sorry to steal the name, although you have more progress done.

The print of the backside looks promising. One short video for you guys

Edit: Everything fits together (nearly) perfect Soon I will be getting my GC+. So there's not much left to do

 

[Predue89]

The case is finished. I am printing the left joycon atm. I now have to decide if I go with 0.1mm or 0.05mm layer high on the printer.

 

[Aurelio]

This looks good! In my opinion .1mm is already highly detailed for 3D printed cases, so I wouldn’t go with .05mm, actually I’d use .2mm

 

[Predue89]

You might be right here. I'll scrap the 0.05mm.

 

[Predue89]

I know I need to start with something. And so I did:

On the pictures it looks like these stripes are clearly visible. In reality they aren't. I don't know why the camera is pointing out this lines so much.
This is the final color and design. (At least for the controller)

 

[Shank]

Progress is fast. Quality is excellent. This project is looking so good. Keep at it, I can't wait to see it finished

 

[GingerOfOz]

Those stripes are consistent enough that it looks like you did it on purpose. Looks amazing!

 

[fibbef]

You keep churning out pics like these, Predue, and I'll keep slamming that Like button. Simple economics, my friend.

 

[cheese]

Holy crap that looks good, lines or no

would buy 10/10

You say lines, I say sex tier texturing and grip.

Yesterday I designed the left and right shoulder buttons. I also printed 4 of them and they look and feel really good. But they are so tiny that pics of them look bad in 0.1mm . So I made a small video .


Man, I'm getting old with my shaking hands xD

Man, I'm getting old with my shaking hands xD

Same thing happens to me when I work too long on a single thing, especially electronics. You just need some alcohol or video games. Or both.

 

[Predue89]

I will post some updates soon. Just a bit busy atm with marriage and so on :/
(Needed to change the shoulder buttons a bit. I hopefully will be able to print them today)
