Needs more mounting holes, and the silkscreen can be rearranged a bit to use up some space, but it's routed and passes DRC.

I love doing CRT modding! This is a friend’s Sony KV-27V42. It has composite and S-Video, but no component or RGB. The BA-4D chassis is very moddable. Added component and RGB. Just need to wire the switch tomorrow.

My crowning achievement in modding (thus far). Cosam Neptune build. Goodbye dumb mushroom-looking 32X. Looking sleek as Sega should have done years ago #sega

Thanks @voultar! Link never looked so good on a 2-Chip Super Famicom. Edge enhancer (advanced mod).

New pickup Famicom Disk System. Already had a Twin Famicom, but working to complete my collection of Famicom/NES consoles. (adding my 3D printed Diskun - completely underrated mascot) #retrogaming #famicom

This is going to destroy the modding community. Not only are devs completely screwed now, but individual modders are too.

Picked these up the other day. In fantastic condition.

Finally got around to doing an RGB bypass on my model 1 Sega Master System. Looks good on the CRT. Need to test on the Retrotink. #sega #consolemodding

I will always think of Gene Hackman as Coach Norman Dale. Sad to hear of his passing.

A couple recent pickups. The Famicom 3D system only had about 8-10 games that’s were compatible. This is the much rarer Sharp branded system (to pair with the Twin Fami of course) #retrogaming #Famicom

Saved an OG Xbox. First, no power. Fixed with recap. Had a hard drive error, so I installed a Modchip. Got it to boot, but would shut off after a minute or so. Found trace rot. Bypassed the bad traces, and we’re up and running!

Just got Arthrimus’s SVS today! Just need that BNC output module (which should be released soon)

Saved another Gameboy DMG thanks to N64 Freak’s excellent motherboard repro. Some cheap components, a little chip transplant, and we’re up and running. Going to do a backlight mod on this (which is a pain, but love the look) #retrogaming #gameboy

New project arrived. Learned a lot last time I fixed one of these. Should be less painful this time. Love these Duos.

Started getting into CRT modding. This 13 in Sony only had Composite/RF, but by the end it will have RGB, YPbPr, and S-Video. Modding it so I can use the TV inputs to switch instead of a bunch of physical switches. #retrogaming #crt

Another bad clock capacitor on the OG Xbox (plus a bad CPU cap). If you have an OG Xbox, and it isn’t a v1.6 board, get that clock cap replaced!
