Cut and glued the astroturf to the shelves. I’ll probably tack down a bit where the glue didn’t go all the way to the edge. Probably use superglue. I’m also pet much decided now that I’m going to cut wedges to act as shelf brackets. Unfortunately that means a lot more cutting. That and I’ll have to build a jig for them.
After way to much decisioning, I have a LiPo, battery management circuit, headers, Pi Zero, and TFT enroute. Next steps will be:
Get connection between the Pi and RePhone.
Get sound through the RePhone, or route the RePhone’s sound through the Pi and build an audio circuit for the Pi (because it turns out the Pi Zero doesn’t have audio broken out.
Physically map where everything will be.
Fab the case. Probably start with a paper cut out, and then depending on how I feel about it, start fabbing out of wood. Whether I feel good about it will drive how many mockups I do before I go with the good stuff.
Ideally make a plaster cast of the case. Repeatability is a good thing.
Wire everything up. I’m using Adafruits PiGrrl Zero as a base, minus all the stuff that makes a game system, using a bigger screen, stuff like that.
Add SIM card to the RePhone, and do a month of testing on a new phone number, if that works, change my phone number and do my old one.
Laptop.
Peter's stuff.
