I printed out the full set of parts for version 2.3 of my Gameboy cartridge modular case and snapped everything together last night.
The cartridge pieces work perfect and everything fits together nice and snug, though the new frame pieces I added in version 2.3 need a slit bit of work.

OctoPrint and PSU Control to control the power of your 3D printer.
I finally finished up the video for PSU Control with OctoPrint on a Raspberry Pi and using a 5v relay to control the power of your 3D printer.
This will allow you to keep your Octoprint setup running, without the printer being powered on all the time when not in use.
Just log into your OctoPrint web console and power up the printer when you are ready.
I also have a brief write up, with links to all items as well as 3D printed parts in use.

PiBro, PinkyPi’s big brother!
Now that I am wrapping up PinkyPi , I’ve decided to start building out the second device I wanted to make. This new Mini Handheld device will use an Adafruit Joy Bonnet with Stereo speakers and a larger screen and battery.
I did end up going with a Raspberry Pi 3 A+ for this build, for abit more CPU power
Gameboy / Gameboy Color stackable game case.
I happened to be watching an episode of Talk About Games, from the YouTube Channel Cinemassacre, and they mentioned the desire for a stackable and connecting Gameboy cartridge case.
Of course I rushed to Sketchup and made a quick doodle, followed up with the case on the printer now being printed.
This is currently still very beta, and I have yet to test fit a game, or the case together… I will be updating it once I verify fitment, and I plan to drastically change the interconnection method.
