Are you using google chrome? I just sent art to art and it went thru fine using IE.
@ ART - art, I sent you a fixed .rar after my original .rar because I had to fix something in the images but if you can read the instructions for both that would b great, sorry for the double upload, thanks alot man and heres hoping to being able to bang out some orders !
Was using firefox but it uploaded fine with IE
I got my case yesterday. I feel like I shold have assembled it with white glaves on to keep finder prints off of the inside. Regardless it looks great.
One semi-major con I ran into that I wasnāt expecting is that the edge of the top panel really digs into the underside of my wrists. Iām not sure I could use this stick comfortably for extended periods of time. Iāll try playing with it on a table top to see if thereās any difference.
Also with the Tek-Cases not beig on the site right now does someone have the part names/measurments for the screws and bold used to attache the wireloop, and PCB holders? Iām planning on running by Lowes after work and I canāt access youtube from here.
6/32 x 1.5" Button Head Screw.
Donāt suppose you meant 6/32 x 0.5" screws? The 1.5" screws I got are way too long. I figured there was an error when I picked up the pack but, since I didnāt know that the actual measurement needed was and I have a bolt cutter on my wire strippers, I decided to roll with it.
Edit: Seems .5" would still be too long. Iām not sure what I ended up trimming my screws down to to make them fit.
so can someone help me clear up some things
so i want to get some top panel plexis for my T5 and my HRAP2 (tired of the old metal panels) so do i need to order the JLF plexis? or not?
I kind of do, and I kind of donāt.
Yes, I meant to be .5 inch.
But even that is not the real length.
Iām measure right now.
And it is 0.484", or 12.30mm being.
No you do not.
I want pics >_>
show some pics please
Iāll see if I can get some pics up tomorrow.
Ah shoot. In my haste with some of the orders I apparently forgot to include a few of the PCB holder screws. Very sorry about that! If you rather not wait for me to ship the screws out by themselves, they are 6-32 x 3/8" screws. If you want me to ship them just give me your order number.
Again sorry about that, and to whomever else I may have left out those screws. Iām pretty sure everything else is there though.
Super crazy week. Put in another 24 hrs last night and just got like 6hrs sleep, lol. Alright, back to work.
I measured the wrong screw.
3/8" is right.
Laugh.
Art (or anyone else who might be able to answer),
Could you tell me the exact dimensions of your TE full plexi covers and bottoms? are they the same? I couldnāt find em on your siteā¦ Sorry if theyāre listed somewhere.
Reason why I ask is that Iām in the planning stages of a new stick, and although I usually cut my own plexi, Iāve been itching for some etching as of late. I suppose I could always make my case slightly smaller and cut the plexi down to size, but Iād rather just build the case to fit.
Does anyone have the full pexi cover for their TE stick? I ordered it for mine, just wondering how the edge treats the wrists if it affects them at allā¦
Wrong thread??
But I donāt have any issues with it on my TE. Had more issues w/ the bezel.
Iām finally able to get some pictures up (internet went down late last night). I havenāt don anything too special with it yet. I put an HRAP3 SA PCB that I had laying around. Eventually Iāll wire it up with an MC Cthuluu, 360 PCB, and RJ-45, maybe. Iāll probably swap out the buttons too. Itāll be a while before I can drop the money on the parts. I am glad that I ordered early though.
I got mine today too! It is very well done Art!
Very easy to put together (even more so with the help of the UTube vid), and everything came wrapped up with what it should go with.
Took all of about 30mins (maybe?) to get it all together and that is the āBā version With the Weight Slots.
I took some crappy Phone pics that I will try to upload in a bit, but it looks nice too!
So far, the case is sweet, and feels great.
No innards yet as I am going to go with the Paewang PCB from eTokki.
I WILL be getting another one soonā¦
EDIT

Will post WorkLog of PCB Installā¦
A question for Art or anyone who knows: Is there any reason you couldnāt sandwich a full panel replacement plexi -> art -> standard plexi?
What I mean to say is, can you replace the metal panel with one of Artās and still layer stuff on top of it?
Iām not sure if thereās a reason why you shouldnāt, but I can tell you right now that I have done what youāre describing (full panel replacement TE plexi + art + regular sized TE plexi) and didnāt notice any real problems. Buttons have some trouble staying in at first, but once you get everything in, it should be fine.
Also, sick Tek Case. I like the color scheme.
Artsā stick has the same button layout but the shape and size dont seem the same. I wouldnt imagine it working to wellā¦
Ill do some side by side shots later against a TE and TE-S.
