York mint tin as an Atari Paddle!

I don't think you screwed up the button layout....I would hold that sideways with my thumb on the button and the cord coming out the bottom, like I hold my regular atari paddles. Cool mod!

@Stripestore thanks! These tins are excellent for projects, I am making two more joystick testers, just waiting on parts :)

im not entirely sure how to make them, if you search "atari punk console altoids tin" or something along those lines, you could find a tutorial or scematics

good luck!!

MAKE AN ATARI PUNK CONSOLE

[nathanallan1]

@machinemotor2 How do you mean? I'm up for anything, but how do I make an Atari punk console? Seriously, how would this be done, cause I'll do it.

Hey Nathan this is cool, but where do you put the mints? I will try to finish off my tin of mints and include a tin with the box I am sending to you, you will probably turn it into a computer or something...-Kev aka TheWarriorisabouttodie

I ate those mints, and was reminded of Nintendo candy a bit-- not the best. Not totally bad, but could be better. Cool, I will put it to use!! Thinking of doing a paddle tester.

The mint tin is cool I dont have any like that around here

PS stay out from under the heater when it turns on. I'm missing a little hair....

I think that cradling the wire would act to help prevent strain on the cable so actually that is a nice feature... should have gotten ole' Ero's I meant to do that comment.

The shape looks more comfortable in the hand then did the original box. Still why did you not include a blue LED here?
