General thread for discussing accessories for the uConsole. Screen protectors, cases, SD cards/holders, batteries, and all other hardware accessories one might use.
I was wondering, could I use a razorblade and some elbow grease to cut my own screen protector for the uConsole? Or would that shatter the protector? I know the uConsole is easy to dissemble, but sourcing the parts from Clockwork in China (I’m in the USA) would take too long if the screen did break from a drop for example.
i guess when u get uconsole , u can find some same size screen from ebay or Amazon XD
I looked at cutting a larger screen protector from Gorilla glass - if you search they recommend cutting the glass underwater - actually they don’t recommend cutting it at all but it you must cut the screen protector do so under water and while wearing protective gloves and goggles… there are generic screen protector products on Amazon… they are more a film rather than glass - that will be my choice…
Yea, cutting tempered glass almost never works.
the ‘instructions’ indicate using kitchen shears… .I cook with those!!! (don’t want glass shards in them!)
Wouldn’t be able to cut glass with shears anyway. Could use them to cut the heavier plastic screen protectors though.
if i could find a 5" 16:9 e-paper display, i’d hack that in
that would be interesting . . . could 3D print a custom case just to make it fit.
that’s an idea
