OK， THX for the great video, I got some idea for my DIY notebook.

You are positively brilliant xD This reminds me a ton of my old Vaio P that I brute-forced into being able to play FFXI on max settings with an old Atom chip. This formfactor and a few other adjustments/hinges would allow for a modernized version without the silly trackpad.. You've given me a lot to look into xD Thanks for making this- you've done absolutely excellent work!

This is sweet. I might have to give something like this a go via PCBWay/KiCAD if my litespeed g902 starts running into weird double-clicking stuff again. Having a custom one with a resin print sounds awesome, neopixels just give another good excuse to do it lol. It'd be fun to do some cutouts and fill with resin as well for transparency or that old purple gameboy look. Might be fun to do some kind of OpenMouse project for Github with a parts list & repository for example code!

Lov da mouse

Wtf. Why couldn't this guy be my teacher in high school?!?

Would it run diablo 2 with lod?

Absolutely incredible. This is incredible.

Absolutely fascinating, great job

A more squared design and a trackpad and palmrest and it'll have an industrial iBook style.

Thanks for a very detailed build video. At 04:18 the SBR16 is being attached to the 6060 extrusion. What steps did you take to align the SRB16 to this extrusion? thanks

11:04 so to my understanding, you built a whole laptop but without the claimshell.

This is super awesome. I've never fully delved into Arduino and from what I hear its the easiest way to start. I personally like my Logitech MX and I have rather enormous hands that dwarf it but I've still come to like it. I would however like to do something like this for a CAD specific mouse add on with the controllable keys and stuff. The info on the PCB design software you used is also helpful as I too have never had luck with surface mount components and can really only understand simple PCBs.

you forgot to add a floppy drive

Cool build, but your io is in the worst possible place right under your right hand

if you ever do a v2 of this, reconsider the trackball placement for a vertical mode, I think that would be real nice in this form factor

Can they make a dumb phone with decnet battery life and decent music player .... ipod meet nokia phones from 1990 Please?

wow 😮😮

What is the point? How can you be so unlucky with mice. Never did a mouse die on me, either at work or at home

Very cool.

Do you have an email address where I can send you a question?

This is really cool! It inspires me to bind right click to z button for aiming and left click to e button for shooting... Whoa! I kinda like it! Thank you so much! 😊❤

i would totally buy this looks awesome

Wow amazing, have the same problem with my mouse, they just don't last as they use too, and are freaking expensive. I'm going to try to make one of these

Absolutely incredible work, now you just have to master your audio 😋

Lovely it's opensource!! I can put the trackball left side :D

Thank you so much bro.That is very helpful. You are genius 😍 I need please the arduino code for this schematic circuit. Thanks in advance

Awesome videos

Amazing video I love your stuff man! I have found that any electrical tape I use on a project is a sticky mess when I come back a year later. Would be interested to know if you have to modify it later what the state of those taped parts are.

TAKE MY MONEY

dude

dude

one day, I will... one day I"ll buy my own framework :) and I love what you've done here... I would have personally gone for Linux but I'm not one of those who will say that's blasphemy :D glad you made the video!

Is there a way to do the same with Arduino Leonardo r3? I don't care about that it will be bulky I just wanna know if it's possible because I have 3 of those laying around

I always hated 16:9 laptops, wide screen like our phones is the way to go

Yes I want my everyday work experience to feel like I’m playing super monkey ball yes you can take my money-

Omg i love that people are finding mor eande more uses for these old motherboards instead of tossing them, by the way throughout my hour or research one day found that the ssd you got is like the absolute best from reliably and price standpoint, one of the best wd black drives is sn850x but the 770 is almost identical just slower lol but half a gig per seconds transfers is still supper fast

Like work, just a work of art from a genius engineer! Like a mouse, it’s 100500 kg of complete garbage, but since you made it for yourself, you know better how it’s convenient for you)

How much do you charge?

Realmente espectacular.Todo, el diseño, materiales, y la disposicion interior.Realmente bonito.

Great project. You don’t appear to have pull up/down resistors on your logic outputs from arduino. This would be why you are having interference issues where your opto isolators didn’t help.

This thing just screams "put linux on me!"

Took an year, but how many actual work hours?

HPCfactor forums would like to see a clamshell design for v2 !

Incredible concept. A few ideas to consider for v2. 1. Try moving the ports backwards so the wires don't bother you when typing. 2. Apple keeps the speakers in sealed ports, firing upwards for good sound. 3. Track balls can be finnicky; you might be able to squeeze in a slightly bigger one moving the board. 4. Consider a few air intake ducts (boost cooling efficiency and reduce fan sound). 5. File down the alu screen bezel to remove friction before it kills the hinge 6. Use loc-tite on hinge bolts (be careful using it on plastics). 7. Touchscreen would be ultimate flex but I don't know if it would be useful in practice, maybe with a stylus.

No offense, but isn't this basically just a laptop but worse?

Great video, It turned out awesome I want to buy one how much? 👍

Is it possible for you give a price comparison with a comparable comercial CNC?

Great video of your excellent design! really like the mix of orange and aluminum. Only wish for me would be to make it a clamshell design.....thanks!

If you get a freeware software called "Volumouse" you can add scroll to the trackball. Really that will give the ability to control just about anything and everything with the track ball. It's simple but useful.

please use rubber or latex gloves and a face mask when machining aluminum, aluminum powder is toxic once it inters the bloodstream and the fine dust particles will enter the blood stream.
