Progress update:
I have lost my internet connection at home thanks to a lousy internetprovider and I'm having a hard time posting updates. But as soon as the connection is fixed (hopefully within a week, the ISP said) I'll post some more updates.

 

Nooooo

I would not be able to live a week without internet Burn them to the ground!

 

Yeah Im pretty close to executing that plan.... To be offline nowadays is like being imprissoned. I have been climbing the walls since last Friday and will most likely do so this weekend aswell.

Just imagine what I'm going through: fresh air, sunlight and perhaps meet people IRL.

 

I've finaly got my internet connection back up and running and can start posting updates again.

I've started gathering connectors for the I/O panel. I need to make my own custom angle connectors thanks to the angle and placement of the mboard.

First I decided to ditch the first Hdmi angle connector and buy a bigger one. I decided to try a rotating one with variable angle...


This is how it looks like on the inside. Tha cables are of perfect length for my intention.


I tried looking for the right DVI connectors on various electronic sites but couldn't find any cheap ones nearby. So I had to slaughter two DVI- adapters and take my time to clean them from the huge mess of molten glue,solder and wires.


Looks very gettoish during the process...


..but they turned out much nicer, here is the finished DVI connectors allong with all the other connectors Im going to use on the footplate.


Next up is making them all fit on the foot I/O and start soldering.

 

YOU CRAZY SOB! -Can't wait to see the pico, BTW... -If you are going to do stuff like ^THAT to it, It might end up looking less like a cable octopus.

 

This is just a amazing built m8 and i want one by my tv at home
