This DIY PlayStation 2 Handheld Gives a Foldable Phone Screen a New Job

Posted on by

The PlayStation 2 was never something you could casually slip into a bag, unless you planned to bring a screen and controller along for the ride. The PlayStation 2 DUO brings those pieces together in an unofficial DIY handheld with an unusual trick. Its screen actually bends in the middle, letting you fold the console when it’s time to put the game away.

There’s plenty of familiar territory around that unfamiliar fold. A purple shell surrounds the display, with a D-pad and the four recognizable PlayStation symbols sitting above two analog sticks. Start and Select occupy the upper corners, while speaker grilles sit below the controls. The arrangement looks reassuringly conventional, which is probably helpful when the screen between your hands is doing something rather unconventional.

Designer: LCLDIY

That screen is a single flexible panel, rather than two separate displays interrupted by a hinge. The project’s earlier development notes describe a 7.8-inch screen salvaged from a foldable phone. It gives the DUO a generous central canvas when opened, without committing the handheld to that same width inside a bag. Of course, making a screen bend doesn’t make its limitations magically disappear.

The panel needs room to curve, and forcing it into a sharp fold would damage it. That requirement shaped the casing and its hinge, leaving a broad bend instead of squeezing the halves completely flat together. It’s a less tidy package than a closed clamshell might suggest, but the extra space has a practical purpose: keeping that delicate display in one piece.

There’s genuine PlayStation 2 hardware inside as well, rather than a newer computer pretending to be Sony’s console. Getting it to fit required cutting down the original motherboard and rearranging its supporting electronics. A 3D-printed enclosure brings everything together, turning equipment once tethered to a television into something you can hold between both hands. The nostalgia extends beyond the buttons, in other words.

The folding body makes the electronics more complicated, of course. Separate control boards occupy the two sides, with a ribbon cable linking them across the center. The trimmed motherboard also carries a small cooling fan and heatsink. There’s quite a bit happening underneath that playful exterior, particularly for a device whose moving parts include the surface you’re supposed to be staring at.

Folding it up reduces the footprint, but doesn’t automatically make this a pocket console. The published project information doesn’t establish its weight, closed dimensions, or battery runtime, so there’s little reason to start planning an entire flight around it. More importantly, this is a completed hobby build, not an upcoming Sony handheld with a price tag and a place on store shelves.

Enclosure printing files and a PCB archive are available on the project page, although they don’t amount to a complete assembly guide. Recreating the DUO still involves board modification and careful work around a flexible display. That might temper the urge to make one immediately, especially if your experience with PlayStation hardware mostly involves inserting discs rather than cutting up circuit boards.

ADHD ONE Lets You Answer iPhone Calls on a DIY 1980s-Style Brick

Posted on by

Answering a call on your smartphone can easily turn into checking messages, opening an app, and forgetting why you picked it up. ADHD ONE keeps that familiar temptation out of your hand, at least while you’re talking. This DIY, 3D-printed Bluetooth handset borrows the shape of a 1980s brick phone, letting you answer iPhone calls while the touchscreen stays tucked away nearby.

The deliberately bulky body puts a speaker grille at the top and a projecting mouthpiece at the bottom, with a narrow OLED display between the grille and keypad. Rounded physical buttons take over from glass, giving dialing and ending a call their own controls. It’s a very recognizable arrangement, even if younger owners might wonder why anyone would willingly carry something this conspicuous.

Designer: Kevin Noki

Of course, the oversized antenna doesn’t mean you’ve escaped modern technology completely. The handset connects to an iPhone over Bluetooth, so that phone still handles the cellular connection and must remain within range. You can leave it in a drawer while reading or working, with the iPhone’s Focus settings deciding which callers are allowed to interrupt your afternoon in the first place.

That retro character isn’t fixed to a single appearance, either. The printable enclosure comes with three speaker grille styles, ranging from perforations to horizontal stripes, plus three antenna designs. There’s even a housing that leaves the antenna opening closed. Builders can choose a cleaner outline or keep the exaggerated silhouette, although removing that long protrusion does take away a rather obvious visual joke.

The shape also came together through a surprisingly hands-on process. Before committing to the printed enclosure, its proportions were explored using foam and a hot-wire cutter. That’s an old industrial design habit with a practical purpose: you can hold a full-size shape and remove material as needed. A digital model can describe a handset without telling you how it occupies your hand.

Getting one, however, involves more than choosing a color. The available product is a €29.99 (around $34) digital download, not a finished handset. It includes printable parts, compiled firmware, circuit-board manufacturing files, a component list, and a build guide. You’ll need to source the required electronics and assemble everything yourself, while editable design files and firmware source code aren’t part of the package.

A boxed DIY kit isn’t available, and its release hasn’t been scheduled. There’s also a standalone 4G version under development, according to the maker, but that shouldn’t be confused with this Bluetooth build. For now, the brick remains an accessory to the smartphone you’re avoiding. Leaving your iPhone at home and taking only this handset would miss an important detail.

Having a separate handset does mean finding room for another device and remembering to charge it. Its bulky outline also makes the idea easier to imagine on a desk than in a jeans pocket. But once you’ve finished talking, there isn’t a social feed waiting behind the call screen. You can put the brick down without deciding what else to do on it.

This Tiny E-Paper Game Boy lets you play Super Mario Land at 30 FPS on a reading screen

Posted on by

Who would have thought an e-paper screen could run Game Boy games at 30 FPS? That’s exactly what Bo Made It’s InkBoy project sets out to do, turning a tiny display designed for simple, static content into a surprisingly capable retro gaming setup. It can even run Super Mario Land smoothly enough to make you forget you’re playing on a screen better suited to an e-reader.

Built around an ESP32 development board with an integrated e-paper display, InkBoy takes on one of the technology’s biggest limitations: slow refresh rates. E-paper is great for reading because it uses very little power to maintain an image, but updating that image quickly enough for a video game is a different story. Instead of accepting the usual limitations, the project finds a way to make the screen respond much faster.

Designer: Bo Made It

The trick lies in how the display is driven. E-paper screens form images by moving tiny particles using electrical pulses. A conventional refresh involves a carefully controlled sequence that takes time and can produce the familiar flashing effect seen on e-readers. InkBoy cuts down this process by using much shorter pulses and updating individual pixels rather than repeatedly refreshing the entire screen. This results in a much quicker response without replacing the display itself.

Getting the image to look right is just as important as making it move. InkBoy uses carefully controlled pixel transitions to produce different shades of gray, although this can leave faint trails behind moving objects. There’s also a faster black-and-white mode that uses dithering to create the impression of additional shades. It gives the project some flexibility, letting the developer trade tonal detail for a more responsive image when needed.

The project builds on ideas explored in PaperBoy, an earlier e-paper gaming experiment by Wenting Zhang. InkBoy brings a similar theme to a compact development board, using existing Game Boy emulation projects to handle the games themselves. Titles can be loaded from a microSD card, and the software supports saving progress and resuming a session later.

The rest of the setup is equally technical as the rest of the build. Controls are managed by a separate ESP32-C3 board housed in a 3D-printed enclosure and connected to the display module over USB-C. Bluetooth pairing is also supported, while a built-in speaker handles game audio. Together, these elements turn what could have been a simple proof of concept into a more complete little gaming device.

There are still limitations with this DIY. Some games struggle to maintain the target frame rate, and the modified refresh method can leave ghosting on the screen. The long-term effects of repeatedly using unconventional waveforms are also uncertain, particularly when it comes to image retention and potential permanent marks. However, InkBoy turns one of e-paper’s biggest limitations into its most surprising feature, bringing classic Game Boy gaming to a screen nobody would expect to play on!

Extra wide street-legal Ford hatchback takes on-lookers by surprise

Posted on by

The world’s narrowest Fiat Panda caught me off guard the first time I saw it. I had to double-check if this was a vision anomaly, but it was not, and out of pure instinct had to cover it. Now we are going polar opposites with the widest street-legal car, which is the work of Tyler Fever (from the YouTube channel Prop Department), who loves his unique automotive DIY projects. After surprising everyone with the world’s thinnest car, for this one he collaborated with Bamboo Lab to bring the project to life.

This DIY project kicks off with the acquisition of three old Ford Festiva sub-compact hatchbacks for $200 each. After stripping one of the cars from the dead center with a portable fiber laser, the next step is taking both halves apart. Then the idea is to stretch the vehicle to the width of a truck, but keeping it within street-legal limits. After a bit of figuring out, Tyler went with a 10 feet width to have the best balance of structural integrity and ability to drive it on roads with some special permits.

Designer: Prop Department

To fill in the space between the two halves, he added structural bars to the floor and the roof. On top go the sheet metals – 10 gauge on the floor and 18 gauge on the roof. This makes the structure form into a single solid structure welded together while preserving the original body panels on the sides. One of the challenges was to expand the suspension and drivetrain to cope with the new form factor. For the front-wheel drive side, the CV axle is stretched five feet with precise welding and controlled cooling. He decided to add steering shafts from the other donor Festivas, so that both front seaters can steer the vehicle. Freakin awesome, don’t you think?

Next came the crafting of the car’s parts like the front grille and the stretched-up dashboard parts using the Bambu Lab H2C 3D printer. Now that the car has plenty of space inside, the modifications came in the shape of a big center console with 14 cup holders. Under the hood, there is enough space to put the engine to one side, an air conditioner with a generator (now that’s wild), and all the other mechanical components to make the machine go. The last step involved painting the sunshine yellow paint and installing the plastic windows.

The front angle of this stretched-out Ford is crazy, and so are the ignition buttons on the inside. Driving it out of the garage for the first time makes Tyler go bonkers as he tests the brakes and the limits of the wide body, grazing it against the road limits. The last surprise came in the form of an officially licensed number plate that’s equally wide. The fun part begins when the car rolls on the highway and then on dirt roads for more than two hours of driving. To check the car’s boot space, he loads it with wooden sleepers and whatnot!

A Round Clock That Shows the Forecast So You Stop Checking Your Phone

Posted on by

Checking the time before leaving home often requires checking your phone, which carries the risk of being distracted by everything else on it. The Round Weather Clock keeps both time and forecast together on a circular screen, making it easy to know if you need to grab the umbrella on your way out. It might look like a humble desk clock, but it knows considerably more about the day ahead.

Smart displays do exist, but they’re practically just tablets or even mini televisions. They take up space, bombard you with notifications, and suggest things you didn’t even ask for. With a 3.4-inch round touch screen, this clock doesn’t have much room to fit anything other than the time, today’s weather, and the forecast for the next five days. The circle is also a more familiar and friendlier shape for a bedside table, where the display can be changed to a less information-dense analog clock style.

Designer: Josh Hendrickson (Anoraker)

When you’re half-asleep early in the morning, you can simply glance at the clock and know what’s heading your way. Switching between analog and digital faces offers a more traditional feel and a straightforward readout. You don’t have to pretend that a screen showing rain is an antique just because its case is round.

You have some choice when it comes to the enclosure, depending on the aesthetic you prefer as well as the route you want to take. You can 3D print the “Pebble” style that has a compact, gently tilted body with a bowl-like rear. It’s a shape that fits well beside a computer without looking like an extended display, providing a mix of modern design with a more classic clock face.

If you want to go the more traditional route, however, there’s the “Classic” style, a straightforward circular body with a slightly flatter back. It also comes in a variety of wood options, including walnut, maple, or cherry. It gives a bit of contrast with a warm, natural finish and a digital display. The wooden version can be bought as a finished product, complete with the clock, for $340, while the more adventurous people can grab the free Pebble 3D printable and make their own.

Despite its simple functions, you can, in theory, add a bit of your own features to make it a little smarter. You can, for example, push a message on the screen from a remote device, such as your phone, or you can display a reminder to pick up your keys or other things near your door. It also has a dim red mode to keep the display less distracting and blinding at night.

As with the enclosures, builders can choose whether to go with a Raspberry Pi with some round screen or a Waveshare ESP32-P4 that comes with its own touch screen. That said, the Pebble style is specifically made for the ESP32-P4, so that’s something to keep in mind right from the start. Either way, the DIY project kindly provides instructions for whichever you pick.

DIYer creates handheld gaming PC from a salvaged Galaxy A90 phone

Posted on by

Handheld gaming machines are compact, easy to use, and give you the freedom to bring AAA titles to your busy lifestyle. They are more of a luxury accessory these days owing to the skyrocketing memory module prices worldwide. So, there aren’t many gamers who are willing to shell out $500 – $1,000 upwards for the luxury.

A DIYer identified these problems and finally set out on making a gaming handheld for a fraction of the cost. The custom-made gaming handheld PC is built out of a Galaxy A90 phone with a broken screen bought off eBay for $30. The major components, including the processor, RAM, GPU, and the built-in battery, are salvaged out carefully by removing the outer shell. These components act as the main brain of the gadget.

Designer: GameRig

The next major step is to get hold of a Bluetooth gaming controller and the keyboard, and somehow get them to fit inside the handheld’s shell which is quite thin. Since we are talking of a gaming handheld, the controller’s outside shell, vibration motors, ports, and the support system for the components can be removed. Just the PCB, joystick, and the button inputs are required. The 11.5 cm long keyboard is saved from the same treatment as it is already quite thin to fit inside the handheld rig.

Then comes the most important component for the thing, and the maker luckily had a 7-inch screen display lying around. So, the next step is to connect the keyboard and the controller components to the screen and check if everything is working fine. The connection from the screen to the other components is via the Samsung DeX app using the USB-C hub.

The enclosure of the hub is quite big, so it gets the same treatment, as only the necessary components are retained, and the enclosure is eliminated from the equation. The phone’s battery and an added battery are salvaged for the project. But the display requires 5V output while the battery is capped at 3.5 V. The solution is to get a charging board that supplies the desired voltage to the components.

After getting the hard work done, GameRig gets down to building the shell of the handheld. Predictably, he uses 3D-printed components to get the job done. The display housing is built first, and then the main housing for the rest of the components is dealt with.

Next, it is down to soldering the required components like the controller, power board, and the motherboard to the batteries. After figuring out the wiring and the ports for the machine, the DIY handheld gaming rig comes to life. The last step is to fit a speaker for the machine, and then again test everything again before securing the housing.

The fun part starts here as the hard work put into the making is rewarded with the maiden session of gaming on the handheld. To be honest, the modern-day AAA titles like Tomb Raider are a bit of a handful for the machine. However, it is perfect for playing the less demanding arcade titles like Asphalt or classic games every gamer still swears by.

YouTuber builds 8-wheel electric wooden camper that spins 360-degrees and rides like a tank

Posted on by

Have you been wanting to live out of an all-wooden camper? Driving solo to the pastures you visited with your father as a child but never had the opportunity to spend a night under the stars there, then brace up. You can follow the new 90-odd-minute detailed video from ambitious YouTuber Quiet Nerd, and build yourself an 8-wheel-drive electric tank-style steering wooden camper from scratch.

All you will need is tools and supplies. The brain is already applied. So even blindly following the instructions can confidently give you a near replica. That’s how elaborately detailed this entire DIY video is. When you’re ready with your cabin on eight wheels, you can, like the modder, steer it into the jungle for a fun-filled night in the wild. He had a night that belonged to him. A night with home-cooked sushi and some flat tires, and a subsequent morning with freshly-made pancakes and a broken front axle rod.

Designer: Quiet Nerd

Hopefully, your experience will be much better, coz you know when too many donuts in this guy are too many. The DIYer didn’t. Anyway! That’s for the fluff; let’s now get the real creation. “This is the most ambitious, complicated, and technically challenging build I have ever attempted,” the creator reveals at the beginning of the video. If you think that’s just said for the sake of it, you can spend some time reading about his previous DIY electric camper created around a wooden bed with tank treads for wheels.

Yes, Quiet Nerd is a genius when it comes to building these electric camping rigs from scratch. He has done it in the past, this time though, this fully electric, 8-wheel-drive micro camper that steers exactly like a tank is way different and above board than what he has created. In fact, I wouldn’t be kidding if I said this camper is definitely one of the most interesting DIY projects in the recent past. If not the camper itself, the video definitely deserves appreciation for its depth.

The build starts with a frame made of square punch tubing, which rests on eight separate 48-volt, 1000-watt brushless differential motors. To ensure a tank-steering mechanism for the cabin, the modder welded the differential gears in all eight gearboxes separately so they didn’t move. This meant the drivetrain on the left and right of the cabin could then work independently, which, when throttled in opposite directions, would allow the camper to perform perfect 360-degree donuts at one place.

Once the frame and the drivetrain were ready, suspensions were added to each of the eight wheels, and the modder then constructed the frame of the camper’s cabin using marine-grade wood. Interlocking pine wood panels were specially created for the siding, and the door was placed at the back. The floor was laid out with interlocking gym foam puzzle mats for comfort, and for ventilation, porthole windows are mounted on each side. On the front, vinyl sheets are used for the windscreen.

The batteries onboard are hooked up to a pair of 200-watt flexible solar panels mounted on the roof, which power the camper when its running or when stationary at the camp. When everything was checked and created, Quiet Nerd took the camper for a ride in the green pastures. Besides a few flat tires and a broken axle rod, most of the time in the woods was awesome, the modder notes in the video. Nighttime donuts are my favorite, but I still believe maybe he can get welded some cutters in the square punch tubing frame and this guy can be an awesome lawn mower. Or get a few ploughs in there and while doing donuts, it can help with ploughing the area.

This Walnut Console Has Faders That Move Themselves to Match Your Lights

Posted on by

Smart home hardware has a quiet, persistent problem nobody bothers fixing: physical switches and sliders forget the truth the moment someone changes a light from their phone instead. A dial stays wherever it was left, even after the bulb it supposedly controls has dimmed to nothing through a voice command in another room. One maker’s walnut console solves that mismatch directly, using motorized faders that physically move themselves to match whatever’s actually happening in the house.

The mechanism borrows straight from professional audio mixing desks, where motorized faders have handled exactly this kind of state tracking for decades. A large aluminum knob on the console cycles through banks, each one representing a different room or light group, shown on a small built-in display. The moment a new bank gets selected, all four faders glide on their own to wherever that room’s lights currently sit, no manual resetting required.

Designer: Alex Dufetel (Sacreblue Studio)

That synchronization runs in both directions, which is the detail that actually matters here. Dim a bedroom light from a phone app while sitting on the couch, and the console’s fader for that room quietly slides to match, entirely unprompted. It’s a small piece of choreography that turns a static piece of furniture into something that stays honest about the state of a house, rather than just accepting whatever position it was left in.

Four buttons sit beside the faders, handling lighting presets rather than individual brightness levels. Their assigned function changes depending on which room bank happens to be active, so a single row of buttons effectively serves every room in the house without needing a dedicated switch panel screwed into every wall. Pressing the same physical button in different rooms triggers a completely different lighting mood each time.

Building and testing all of this against sixteen actual light fixtures scattered through a house would slow any project down considerably. Instead, a compact 4×4 grid of small diffused LEDs stands in for the real thing, with each row representing one room’s bank of four lights. That miniature rig let the whole system get debugged safely on a desk before ever touching a single fixture wired into the house’s actual power.

Materials do plenty of the storytelling here too. The body is solid walnut rather than injection-molded plastic, and the rotary knob along with the fader caps came off a CNC machine cut straight from aluminum stock. Even the current painted-wood faceplate, a placeholder ahead of a planned black anodized aluminum version, already reads closer to a finished audio interface than a hobbyist circuit board bolted into a project box.

DIY AirPower desk charges your phone anywhere on its glass top, also reminds you to drink water

Posted on by

How long have you pursued an unannounced gadget; waiting passionately to see it come to life? If I speak for myself, it would be flying cars that I still wait for with childlike enthusiasm. For He Shijie, better known as He Tongxue of the YouTube channel HTX Studio, it was an AirPower, a wireless charging pad that Apple announced it had in development in 2017, almost a decade ago.

The best part of the AirPower would have been its unique charging ability. Unlike Qi wireless chargers (that required the phone to be placed in the center to charge), the AirPower would charge an iPhone no matter where it was placed on the charging pad. Patiently waiting for nine years, only to learn that Apple had discontinued the idea of the wireless charger way back in 2019, the creator got down to building his own AirPower in the size of a work desk that Apple would dare try.

Designer: HTX Studio

The desk-sized version of Apple’s now-cancelled AirPower charger is a versatile DIY creation that features a moving coil inside to charge your phone no matter where you place it on the table. The table is called the AirDesk and uses an overhead camera to locate where your device is on the desk and repositions a single moving charging coil right beneath it to charge automatically.

The entire show of the coil moving is pretty interesting. When you place a device on the table, it automatically identifies where the device is and starts to align the charging coil in that direction. An animated cat appears above the charging mechanism and it follows the coil as it moves directly underneath the phone. AirDesk can charge multiple devices also. Charging coils are placed in the corners of the table to charge additional gadgets. The creator informs that the keyboard can also be charged wirelessly when needed.

The table itself features a Mac Mini underneath the glass top. It can be connected to a monitor on top and used as a hidden workstation that your friends would envy, provided He is willing to trade it off for a fortune. Simply because what the studio has pulled off with the Air Desk is really cumbersome to replicate, and clearly there is no way of getting this one, I believe. You can try your luck ask though.

The unique desk with a transparent LCD screen is not only created to power devices. It took the creators over two months to finalize the ultimate desk, which is engineered to play animations, show tasks, and remind you to stay active when you’ve been in front of the desk for too long. The desk sits on motorized legs to transform into a standing desk when you need to change your posture. A nifty characteristic of the table is a built-in mechanism that, like the motorized coil, also pushes a cup towards the user every hour to remind him to drink water…Cool?

Turn your old Galaxy phone into a weatherproof cyberdeck for under $100

Posted on by

That old phone sitting in a drawer as a backup could have a more interesting second life. ETA Prime’s DIY cyberdeck takes a Galaxy S10, places it inside a compact waterproof mini tackle box, and pairs it with a small Bluetooth RGB keyboard with an integrated trackpad. The result is a piece of hardware that already exists turned into a surprisingly capable portable workstation.

The tackle box becomes the enclosure, with minor modifications made using a Dremel, so the phone and keyboard can sit securely inside. There is no 3D-printed shell or elaborate fabrication involved, which keeps the project accessible to anyone comfortable with basic-level How-Tos. More importantly, the sealed enclosure avoids the need to cut openings for charging ports or physical buttons, helping protect the electronics from dust, moisture, and accidental splashes.

Designer: ETA Prime

At the center of this project is a Galaxy S10, whose Snapdragon 855 processor, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of storage, and AMOLED display still give this repurposed setup plenty of capability. A Rotation Control app is used to keep the phone’s interface in the desired horizontal orientation, while the Bluetooth keyboard turns it into something closer to a tiny computer. The keyboard also supports RGB lighting, adding a little character to what would otherwise be a very utilitarian build.

The practical appeal shines through when the S10 is used for more than browsing. The hardware can handle Android productivity apps, media playback and retro-game emulation, including demanding platforms such as Dreamcast and PSP. That makes the cyberdeck equally suited to writing on the move, watching videos, experimenting with software, or playing older games without carrying a laptop or dedicated handheld.

The enclosure is arguably the most interesting part of the design. Unlike many cyberdecks that prioritize a futuristic appearance over everyday practicality, the tackle box gives this one a rugged, purpose-built quality. The rig is compact enough to carry around, while its weather-resistant construction makes it better suited to outdoor use than an exposed phone-and-keyboard combination. That unusual mix of ordinary storage hardware and repurposed electronics is what gives the project its character.

There is also plenty of room for experimentation. A larger battery can be added beneath the keyboard for longer sessions, while a detachable kickstand could make the viewing angle more comfortable. The Galaxy S10 is not necessarily the only possible brain, either. According to the DIYer, the same enclosure concept could accommodate a Raspberry Pi or small-form-factor PC for users who want to explore Linux and other operating systems.

Best of all, the project is quite inexpensive, given the exponentially rising costs of memory modules, and in turn PCs and smartphones. With a used Galaxy S10 potentially available for less than $70 and inexpensive components filling out the rest, the complete build can remain below $100. The clever DIY is very easy to take u unlike some of the more complex cyberdeck builds we’ve seen in the past like the pocket-sized Altoids DIY.
