one day i'll learn how to (read: care) to resize pics to fit places - and take product pics? ugh.. sorry?

so this is the first gen one to see if i liked using it before i put another entire days (week) worth of yelling at openscad to start making the 'hard' changes to get it closer. 

i never figured out how to add the pre-existing holes in the front plate in the right places to get the retrocart slot attached so i just put a cart in thru the plate and plugged it in all lose and stuff and used a smaller drill bit thru the holes and eyeballed it 'center' and marked on the back where. real precision work i know but.. 

i used a hand drill and alot of twisting to make holes to fit the screws i had on hand cause a power drill just chews up pla like crazy and i also do not own one. /thanks ex wife/ but i kinda like the look.. originally i wanted to use those ugly dull self tapping plastic screws like everything from the 70's had but i didn't have any so.. 

the seams and screw positions are completely wrong (alots completely wrong at the moment) to make it really in the atari style if we're gonna be technical about it but i'm a rando from the internet and not some talented engineering team working at a major corp with an injection molding plant.. sooo..  

i also didn't have any pig iron to weigh it down or chunky huge black rubber feet so at the moment it slides around way more than i want. but thats a future luxoteks problem for now... but this was a week ago now so now its my problem and past luxotek is a dick... needs feet.. or an eject button.. ooooo eject button. now its future luxoteks problem again.. jerk

i feel like someones gonna get real mad in the comments that i'm not taking this write up seriously. oops

here's a couple more way too big pics to get madder about
