Mechanical engineer who likes electronics too much mrkamp.bsky.social

I wanted to share some pictures of something I've been working on for fun: A Nintendo Switch Lite SP! This mod will give the Switch Lite a folding form factor to make it closer to a 3DS!

The design is based off of the original switch light shell with some inspiration taken from the 2DS XL for the hinge. It'll use OEM buttons and keep all the same features of the switch lite. The 3D design is about done, next up at PCBs!

This some amazing work! Something I definitely want to tackle in the future! Super exciting stuff!
You wouldn't reverse engineer a DS Lite 🚨🚔

Just confirming what we already knew. But a video is worth a thousand words 😉 DSi running on an HDMI display📺 So yes, a DSi capture card is possible

Honestly, I haven’t received anything from any projects I've participated in. I do everything as a hobby in my free time. But this time, if you'd like to support me, here is my Ko-fi: ko-fi.com/nitehack Thank you! 😊

Bit of a long shot, but does anyone have a Louvre new 3DS XL that they wouldn't mind taking some caliper measurements of? It has some unique parts that I'd love to include in a version of my reverse engineered shell 3D models!

Super cool project, I definitely plan on building my own at some point!
🥳📢After 4 years of hard work, we (LNH-team) are proud to announce that DSpico, our open-source flashcart for the DS(i), is officially released! 🌐 Find all the details on our website!: lnh-team.org/

"Hey can I copy your homework?" "Sure, just make it look different so it doesn't look like you copied it" "Sure thing":

JK, very excited about the new steam controller!

Want to be able to customize a VMU with a 3D printed shell? I decided to reverse engineer the shell a while back and I wanted to post the files so that people can use them!

The one thing I couldn't test was the cap (because I don't have one). If you find that it doesn't fit the cap, let me know and I'll try to fix it. Thanks!

My design is based off of hand measurements and 3D scan references made by @WeskMods on the Bitbuilt forums. Inspired by @YveltalGriffin, who released reversed engineered Dreamcast Controller STEP files!

Because of difficulties getting resin parts, I've temporarily switched to design projects that I can print in FDM at home. One such project: a custom Gamecube Keyboard Controller! The shell is 3D printed, but I plan on creating a complete replacement!

I forgot to add: the front and rear shells were each printed in one part on my @BambulabGlobal H2D! They turned out very nicely!

So far, I have reverse engineered the GC Keyboard Controller's shell, based on my own 3D scans and the GCC CAD from @GearhawkStudio. Eventually, I'd like to create custom electronics as well that both recreate the original and add modern features!

The 3D modeling was very tedious, but went pretty quickly given how large of a model it is! I'm very satisfied with the 3D CAD! It'll be a big help as I begin to create modern keyboard and controller electronics!

If you are interested in making your own Steam deck controller, now you can! (I hope) I just added the files to a github repo which you can find here: github.com/mriankamp/SteamPa… Heads up: it requires spare parts from an actual LCD Steamdeck!

I'm currently working on adding parts to the repo that let you use the rear buttons and will update shortly. Please let me know if anything is missing from the repo and I'll see about adding it. Thanks!
