Been working on a cyberdeck project for a few days, using it to learn woodworking and wiring. Currently have the front and rear panels cut and attach-able, and the PSU wired up to supply enough power for the rPi 5.

Still have to finish the handle and side panels, and wire up the second PSU for supplying the fans, screen, and temp sensor. Also have to plan, assemble, and install the keyboard. Lastly, I’ll paint and lacquer the case panels.

I’m trying to hew more closely to a Shadowrun-esque deck design, rather than the clamshell designs that are more popular now.

    Looking awesome! I’m a fan of the deck, even if I do prefer clamshell

    I’m getting an error on the imgur link but it could be on my end. I love cyber decks! One of the few reddit communities I miss, but it also was on a slump because of the Steam Deck.
