I'm impressed how clean you got it with a dremmel. You sir, need a mill.
Professional quality video! With videos like this you'll go far!

Awesome work. Inspiring! Also, I grimaced when you lifted those pads. I've done that more than once. Such an awful feeling when you're worried that you just screwed up your entire project with that one little mistake!

i love your soldering technique. using heat syncs and plastic to protect the board. most people solder haphazardly and make a mess.

Wow, great work so far! I hate desoldering! You have a very steady hand to solder to some of those skinny pads that are so close together, too.
This is like a asmr video plus him making a portable snes
Nice amount of gunk under that D-pad aha yikes. Very satisfying video sir. What an awesome build idea ❤❤
And I thought my cell phone/ps4 controller was a compact setup for SNES. This is awesome!!

awesome project but i have a questio. if you had a hot air station, why on eart would you use a soldering iron to remove the components?
@RestoreTechnique
3 жыл бұрын
I was concerned about heat damaging the tiny board with all the components close together. I've heard of people damaging their pi zero from just soldering the GPIO pins for too long. I've since seen other people use hot air for desoldering on the pi zero, without any heat masking. So I think I was too cautious, and will use hot air next time.
I just found your channel and love it. Please be careful. I don't want the Nintendo ninjas to come after you.
