Had my first go with the ezBuff tonight. It took some getting used to. But, with just Meguiar's PlastiX, I was able to get this result on an OG Xbox cd. It did not have any real big/deep scratches. The largest scratch it had is the squiggly one you can see in the top of the 2nd pic.

Another day, another Xbox. This one was upgraded with an XboxHD+, Stellar+, Stellar RGB, 128MB RAM, 2TB HDD, and more. It was not all smooth sailing though, as the console was previously "serviced" by another company.. Check it out 馃憞 馃У 1/8

Some final touches to finish everything up. The SATA adapter was upgraded to support UDMA6 by moving/replacing a couple 0603 resistors (RH1-10K, R4-100). Then a 3D printed spacer/lock was used in place of the aforementioned hot glue. 馃У 7/8

Last but not least, a few screenshots. This is probably the last time I will use Black as a test game.. It took FOREVER to get to actual gameplay 馃槅 -Dashboard -Black -Dance Dance -Tony Hawk 馃У 8/8

One of my personal favorites, the Nintendo 64. This "ice blue" console came in for a Retro GEM install, a recap, and some new thermal pads. I also added a light blue 3D printed no-cut kit, and matching region free cartridge tray. Check it out 馃憞 馃У 1/4

With the recap out of the way, it was time for the N64 Retro GEM. I like to match the wiring to the console color when possible, even if no one will ever see it 馃槄 馃У 3/4

Thermal pads are saved for last to avoid getting dust or debris on them while work is being done. This one came in with an expansion pack, so that received a new thermal pad as well at no additional cost to the customer. Time to test! (See post 1/4 馃槃) 馃У 4/4

Another fun (and time consuming) console. Xbox 1.6b 128MB RAM upgrade, XboxHD+ with Open Xenium, 2TB SSD with Origins build, new thermal compound, DVD drive restoration, a few 3D printed parts, and a lot of new caps. Check it out 馃憞 馃У 1/7

One of last things on the agenda for this console was the XboxHD+. This was a older kit, so it included an Open Xenium. 1.6 flex and LPC rebuild installed, then Open Xenium firmware updated. 馃У 6/7

Last but not least, are the assortment of 3D printed parts used. A mount for the Open Xenium, Startech adapter enclosure, 3.5 to 2.5 conversion tray, and some new TPU feet (the old ones were looking a little past their prime). 馃У 7/7
