Yep rit always rit lol. I used the powder ive been thinging about trying a fre mixes using the liquid stuff. As for vessel i used a heavy duty mop bucket, i know plastic =bad but Its all i could get at the time but i also used a sink and got the same results.o_O

See i had the issue of black turning clear cases brown. The gameboy ive modded up with the gears ive dubbed Clock Boy was died with black dye and was in the dye for a good couple of hours and I checked it every 10-15minutes. Did the same with a clear pocket. I think the acetone may have something to do with color quality. Certain amounts may effect it. Not sure but ive heard other people say they got purple also but I always got brown lol

Would you be willing to share with me how you went about painting the front pcb white? Ive been debated on trying this on one of my gameboys but disnt want to risk anything until I got more info on safe paints and techniques to use. Please PM me if youre willing to share. Ill sign an agreement or whatever if you wish. I only want to do it for personal cases of my own.

Thank you in advance. Even i you dont share smile

First up, the Random boy! This is THE test case I used for case light and button light theories.

Whats inside:
-Pink Backlight
-Green Power led
-Clear Teal Kitsch buttons with power switch
-Blue lights behind the buttons with 4 mode control button on lower left side
-Green led in Speaker grill
-Speaker still in tact
-Custom Russakk screen

Since this was a test case Im selling it for $60, shipping not included. I will add a 1/8th inch prosound for $10 more.

Next is a work in progress for myself that I never got around to doing due to money issues.

-Black front
-Yellow back with yellow battery cover
-Black Dpad
-Yellow AB buttons
-Yellow backlight
-Black Screen will be bought if you want it
-1/8th prosound is optional for $10 more
-Rca prosound is optional for $15 more
-Both prosounds can be installed
- I can also change the power led to Yellow for free.

If anyone wants it I will install the backlight and get a black screen cover for it with the money you send me for the order. Giving it plenty of time for it to arrive while I do the backlight and prosounds if you choose to go that route.

I have a yellow screen I bought to install on it but the yelllow doesnt match at all and I personally dont like it. But if you want I could put that screen on it instead of waiting on a black one.

Im selling it for $70 with backlight and new screen. Additional costs mentioned above for prosound mods if you choose to have them installed.

If interested please let me know.

Nes Boy price drop to 100$ no trades please. Price negotiable.

Lowered price die to, as many of you know Ive been in a hard place recently and Im going to use the money to get back on my feet and back in the game. I love this gameboy and hate to part with it for so little as it was my first decked out gameboy, but hard times call for hard decisions. If you are intererested and dont think 100$ is fair please message me and I will concider your offer.

Ebay for all parts needed. Though someone on here may have an extra speaker laying around. Also someone may have a batt cover for you. But these can all be found on ebay and amazon the like..especially the pokemon games.

I can tell you youd probably have a lot better luck selling them seperate or in smaller groups. You have a lot a clears here and people want clears but i dont know if anyone would want 11 clears unless they atr running a mod shop. Id love to buy all of these and the price is reasonabke but I cant afford it at the moment. If these havent sold in a few months I'll probobly come grab this set. Good luck man smile

Thanks a lot guys and @matt things definitely are turning up. Ive been working a generic job I hate for about a year getting paid squat for it and the experience I have that was really shooting my sense of self worth down a lot. I just got a job in the cellphone and other wireless devices field which I have tons of experience in and the manager offered me pay that I couldnt turn down. I am very excited about this job. One more month of suffering I think and then everything will be smooyh sailing. And man Ive got sooo many plans for projects Im going to be working on, once Im caught up on everyones orders, since Ill finally have the money to fund them. smile

Alright guys just wanted to post this to knock it out all in one hit and to give a public explanation.

This past month-month 1/2 has been really crazy. It started with me working a ton at my job then turned into me finding out that after a year with the company my hours are getting cut down to only 4 hours a week which turned into me being "okay" and surviving to me basically almost losing my home. This turned me a panicking freaking out nut case and Ive been hunting for a job religiously. I jst found out not even 30 minutes ago I noe officially have a very nice high paying job and I will be starting sometime early this next week, i believe monday or tuesday. I wont start recieving a pay check until closer towards the end of the month. My grandfather that serves in WWII also died on new years day at the age of 93 and I just got back in town from his funeral a few hours ago.

So I am here to apologize for the inconvenience this has brought any of my customers/friends Im doing orders for. I want to start with Kitsch/Matt, the first half of your order is completely finished and ready to ship but our deal was you pay shipping to me and I pay shipping back, well I havent had the moneys due to work issues. I will get it out ASAP and until then I will continue to work on the other half. Very sorry man. Ill make it up to you somehow in the future.

Next is Justin Thursday of ThursdayCustoms, got everything ready to get yours done luckily its only 1 case lol and wont take long either. Just want to apologize for the delay. I know you said a bit of a delay was expected and all and you understand but still, I honestly planned to have your case back to you by now as it was a very small order.

Next is Fudgers, Everything for your case is also ready man. Part of the delay with yours was yhe fabric as you know and then you decided on an alternate one because I couldnt find your original choice..and then I found your original choice lol. At that time is when shit started getting really bad and Im sorry. But again everything is ready I just have to throw it all together and get it shipped out.

Next is uXe, this one is a little odd. I messaged you awhile back saying that there would be a delay on yours due it being a trade only and youre in Australia. I never heard back from you so I have no idea whats going on with this one. Please message me soon because I need to discuss that with you and talk to you about your gameboy with the orange screen you want me to use for it. I can not proceed with yours until we discuss it because I dont want to mess anything up and risk you gettin mad.

Toastypinecone, as you know your super fur boy is finished. I just got to het the thing boxed and shipped and out to you. As the others just let me gather a few moneys and itll be off to you.

Theres also a few select good friends that have been waiting on their cases, one of you is because I havent gotten the case and buttons from you yet. The other is, well you know who you are and you know I'll make it up to you. We've discussed it greatly and you know a little more detail of whats been going on and as always Im happy youre so understanding. If I was waiting that long for something I probably would have killed someone. But hey..I am bribing you with one if a kind free stuff! Lol


As for the people that payed for shipping and still ate having to wait I am very embarrassed to say but due to the money issues I encoutered due to my old job being stupid and cutting our hours back so majorly I had to dab into my paypal to pay a bill or two here and there which is what happened to it. To make up for this delay, if you ever order from me again, which I hope you do because this will never be an issue again you will recieve free shipping for your order no matter how big it is. For extreme cases we can talk in private and work someyhing out when the time is right.

Thank you all for being so patient with me.

-Vex

Damn it!!! I was going to do a gameboy like this using Skullcandy stuff T_T

That is amazing though! Very cool!

Im also curious to see a side angle or two and wondering what you used for the icing looking stuff.

thanks ^-^
The icing is just caulk with a little pink paint mixed in and piped out of a icing bag
I'll upload some side shots in a little bit!

So its actually a little squishy?! Thatd be an awesome thing!

For major issues and you notice it come back when you press it it may not be that small strip right under the screen. You can also heat any other part of that ribbon cable, just dont touch the black square in the middle. Any other part of that brown ribbon can be heated. Ive often had to run my solder iron all over that damn thing. Just turn your gameboy on and watch the lines carefully. I promise this will work. Only think it work fix is if you have loose solder on your board somewhere and it makes the scren look like it has missing pixels but its actually glitching..if thats the case...good luck lol

I had this issue with my 64mb cart. Theres two pages on it and you can put a game or something on one side and lsdj on the other. I played around with mine a lot and found out that if you put the same version of lsdj on both sides it works just fine. But if one side is blank or if something else is on one side itll sometimes not work...if it worked at all. Might be something to look into if youre using a 64mb cart.

I dont know of any places to get replacement screens but this video is accurate. Its the same process I use. Just use a soldering iron and youll be good to go.

I personally like it honestly. You shou get your hands on lsdj though. im curious what you would do with it. Sounds great no complaints. Dona few more ad lets see what happens..
