I am looking in to having a PCB fab house print out the circuit-boards for me. Right now the biggest problem is that it takes me 7+ hours just to make all the solder traces and leads by hand, then I have to actually build the prop. With a printed circuit board I could spend more time on the aesthetics.
oh i get it sweet dude well feel free to send any news on the sale of the product my way and i was woundering why did u decide to make this and u have to see this probaly lke 500 doollar sexy one
@topgunatf LaRdArms one looks sick. That nice briefcase he used probably cost about half of what my entire project cost though. I'm not against making a nice looking one like that, my main goal was just to create a very affordable prop.
To answer your question of why I built it, I just wanted a good project to do that would teach me how to program an Arduino.
@topgunatf Thats how it is. The LCD is epoxied into the project box, and the lexan is epoxied over the lcd to water proof it. The tape doesn't really serve any purpose other than a border.
i Do have two suggestions tho one if u can mount the speaker inside then get rid of the electrical tape mess do that ant i think u could massmarket bro
@topgunatf The electrical tape is just there for show anyway. It is covering the edges of the lexan I used to waterproof and bb-proof the LCD. I was undecided on whether I wanted to make it look like it was machined and professional, or make it look like it was thrown together by some terrorist (similar to the one in Counter Strike).
now put it in the mal!

makes sense but wouldent it be easier to justuse epoxy on the inside to seal it
