Currently working on a DIY solder fume extractor for my new @iFixit #FixHub soldering station. As a soldering novice I'm actually quite proud of what I've done so far :)
Stay tuned for another post once I've finished the project (currently still waiting on a USB-PD Trigger board tho so I can try powering everything directly from the FixHub's second USB-C port)...
[Project inspired by YouTuber "DIY Perks"]

@eri even for a #Laptop or #Tablet I consider the #FrameworkDesktop a total "#WontBuy!" on my end, as it has less #Upgradeability and #Repiarability than a #Lenovo #X230Tablet or #Fairphone #FP3plus, mich less anything I consider "#Desktop" hardware.
It's really sad when #DIYperks put in more effort than an entire company at designing a Desktop!
The guy behind #DIYPerks with another perk that will quite literally upsell you an OLED instead.

I mean, the old TV and the projector could barely cost $100. Add $200 and the hassle and you may have something that rivals a good OLED. The problem? The setup is so space consuming that you will be better buying an actual OLED.

@yuki2501 nodds in agreement There's a reason #DIYperks and other #crafting #YouTubers "cheat" by using #MDF & #Veneer, because it allows one to #GetThingsDone without much spechalized tooling and still get good-looking results...

After a long time w/out releasing any videos, Matt redesigns the PS5 to integrate it into a portable monitor.

This DIY PlayStation 5 “tablet” puts the guts of Sony’s console into a (kind of) portable game system
Sony’s PlayStation 5 game console has been around since late 2020, but it’s undergone some changes since then, most notably with the launch of a new “PlayStation 5 Slim” model released last fall.
Among other changes? The motherboard has gotten a lot smaller. So YouTuber Matthew Perks decided it was time to transplant that […]

Greetings everyone!
Name's Void_Setup, but feel free to call me whatever. I'm just another #tinkerer open to learning new things while building upon what I already know. :P
My main knacks include recent fascinations with #eeg tech [#neuroprosthetics] and #hardwarehacking, #raspberrypi tinkering, and recycling/modifying old hardware with miscellaneous parts I find [which I might have dumpster dove for]. Example: (WIP) Turning an old laptop display into a desktop monitor (shoutout to #DIYPerks)! Plus, MASSIVE #LINUX NERD!! My fav. distro is #voidlinux!
I also dabble in #programming with #python, #C, and #cplusplus, but I might give #Rust a go once I've become fluent in both python and #micropython. I also dabble in #FreeCAD, #Blender, and #digitalart too, but I need more practice before I can model/sketch my ideas.
Finally, my main project? BUILDING A #PROTOGEN SUIT WITH A PI 5 THAT RIVALS IRON MAN HIMSELF. I WILL FIND A WAY_
Anyways, that's enough from me for now. Peace!
Sincerely,
=[|87
@k @Ninji or just upcycle one from a #Laptop...

@machias Personally, I think that #Reusing and #Refurbishing is very important and can be done...
And even a broken machine can be salvaged by parting it out and #Upcycle|d like #DIYperks showcased here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLP_L7Mgz6M
Fantastic use of a #Framework Laptop Mainboard and Battery by
#DIYPerks
@DosFox If you need access to some #CCSS programs to do your creative works, then #macOS is the best option AFAIK...
Personally, I like some #DIYPerks' - style #upcycling...

Triple Monitor Luggable PC Is An All In One Powerhouse
Triple Monitor Luggable PC Is An All In One Powerhouse
[Matt] from [DIY Perks] has made a name for himself building nice custom computing machines, and his latest triple-monitor luggable PC (video after the break) is sure to give most high-performance desktop machines a run for their money.
The large central monitor folding laptop monitors mounted vertically on either size look impressive, but only just scratches the surface of this build. Hidden behind aluminum panels are Ryzen 5950X CPU and RTX 3080 GPU with water cooling, 64 GB of RAM, and two 8 TB SSDs. A set of high-quality speaker drivers, subwoofer, and audio amps is also included. All this hardware pulls about 600 W of power from a large DC-DC converter block, which in turn receives power from either a pair of onboard AC-DC converters or a 16 V - 63 V DC source, like a battery system.
To mount everything to the back of the main monitor, [Matt] created 3D printed adaptor blocks with threaded inserts which slide under existing hooks on the back of the monitor. Aluminum angles screw to these blocks to cover the edges of the display panel, together with a large mounting plate with pre-drilled holes to mount all the components on standoffs. A set of adjustable and removable legs mount to the side of the PC. A hinged door in the back cover allows storage space for a keyboard and mouse during transport. When folded, the laptop monitors don't fully cover the main monitor, so [Matt] created a leather cover that doubles as a cable and accessory organizer.
Whether its dual screens and an integrated SDR, or a rotating-folding screen, there is no shortage of ways to build a portable powerhouse.
