Create a slot loading drive for the Xbox. Similar to the Ps3 or Wii.

    Would be a mechanical challenge. Although we did something like that on the famous "Xbox Disc Changer" episode.

    If you want a reference point, it's been done before, though it doesn't look easy. http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=666828&st=0

     

    I came across that when I was looking for a way to shrink the size of the xbox disk drive for portability. Unfortunately my search did not yield much fruit, as everything that would let me do that requires more ability to fab custom parts than I have at hand at the moment.

    Yea, I've come across that before! It's actually kind of why I wanted Ben to do it. It's not easy to follow, so watching a video of him putting it together would help alot. I've searched and only been able to come across like 3 threads of people who have done it before and none of them are the easiest to follow. Thanks though!

    Actually, I may build a Slot Loading Nintendo for a future episode. So stay tuned!
