You were also born just in time to build your own smartphone.

That looks and feels like the cheapest Chinese shit.

>go to all the trouble of making your own laptop
>put a seagate mechanical hdd in it

I was born at a shit time, soon enough to see the Internet at its peak but late enough to not really truly enjoy it before it became filled with normies.

For a few years there was a beautiful time were DSL and cable were wildly available and the normies hadn't ruined everything with social media. But it was just a few years.

Vacuum forming is infinitely superior for cases.

I want to make one of these but I looked into it and the battery life is crap. Would be even better on a pi zero

>>56082339
I'd like one of these, but I know if I pulled that out in public I'd get shot.

>>56082286
It will break and/or shatter in 3 weeks.

>>56082619
LOL it isn't.

>>56082619
wouldn't the components overheat

Why you got Wall-E's head in a vise dude?
Not nice

>he's not designing a metal chassis and having it 3D printed or machined using a CNC service
>not screwing it into a 3D printed plastic case
>not having a super strong laptop case custom made

Holy fuck, you guys are nublets.

>>put a seagate
>believing the seagate is shit meme
>mechanical hdd in it
I'll give you that since any mech drive in a laptop is pretty retarded these days, especially what looks like a 3.5 inch one.

If you don't cut out the ventilation like a Spastic Amish who doesn't know how electronics work.

>>56085171
How do you design a case and be sure it doesn't overheat but still has high durability?

>>56087834
make it porous and easy to disassemble for cleaning

>>56087984
I was looking for a video or website with detailed instructions, google just gives me a bunch of pinterest artsy shit

>>56082470
Why do people say "normies" now?
When did it change from "faggot" etc.?

>>56085171
Could be prototype.
We do it all the time before machining something up.

You'd be amazed at how strong some of the other material based/polymer filaments out there are actually.

"normies" came from reddit
because you can't say normalfag on reddit
