                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think I finally decided to pause picking up around the house and messing with Christmas lights for this upcoming season log enough to play with a new little project.<br />I saw someone posting they wanted a Raspberry Pi based PCEgine console, and I was able to find one on Thingiverse</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Files used:</p>
<p><a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3646626" target="true">PC Engine Pi Zero Case</a></p>
<p><a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2998019" target="true">PC Engine HuCard</a> (I resized it down 50% to fit the case)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So far, I've only printed the parts, a ton of sanding and prep work is needed before I can lay down the first coats of flat white paint.</p>
<p>Fresh off the printer.</p>
<p> </p>
378
<p> </p>
<p>All parts laid out.</p>
380
<p> </p>
<p>Test fitting the hardware.</p>
381
<p> </p>
<p>Assembly test.</p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since I have yet to find a true N64 Mini to complete my collection of systems I had as a child, I decided to make my own. This build is based off a Raspberry Pi and running RetroPi. Keep in mind at the time of doing this project, even with the new Raspberry Pi 4 is on the market N64 games still really don't run well, this is more for novelty than functionality.</p><p>I am using <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2101165" target="true">this N64 case</a> I found in Thingiverse and have been working on the prep for paint.<br />I have a spare Pi 3B+ I will be using as this case sadly isn't Pi 4 friendly.</p><p>Power Switch used - <a href="https://amzn.to/2lvajR9" target="true">Uxcell a12013100ux0116</a><br />Reset Switch used - <a href="https://amzn.to/2lxuVIz" target="true">HDE PC Case Power Push Button</a><br />Fan in use  - <a href="https://amzn.to/2k1kjkL" target="true">Easycargo Raspberry Pi Fan 30x30x7mm</a><br />N64 USB controllers - <a href="https://amzn.to/2lqx5cN" target="true">iNNEXT N64 Wired USB PC Game pad</a><br />N64 USB controlelrs - <a href="https://amzn.to/2llMJ9g" target="true">Retro-Bit Tribute 64 USB Controller</a></p><p>177</p><p>176</p><p>175</p><p>The initial print didn't look all that bad, though there were a couple of minor issues with some of the finer detail of the print. Sadly it took over an hour to cut away all the support material, and was a complete mess.<br />I've since started with 180 grit sand paper, to remove the salmon skin left behind from 3D printing.</p><p>180</p><p>178</p><p>179</p><p>For the most part, the top half is now ready for some spot filler and sanding with 220/320</p><p>181</p><p>185</p><p>183</p><p>184</p><p>182</p><p> </p><p>Once I touch up a few areas on the top and finish cleaning up / spot filling the bottom, it will be ready for primer.<br />The primer I picked up is a sandable, filler primer with 600 grit sand paper, and a couple of coats of matte black.</p><p>I don't plan on going too extreme, I would like to keep it as authentic looking as possible. <br />This one is slow going as balancing work and wrapping up PinkyPi Pro as well as creating the newest PinkyPi project takes up alot of my time as well.</p><p>Stay tuned!</p><p> </p>]]></content:encoded>
