Thanks to Comgrow for sending me the Comgo Z1 Laser Cutter/Engraver. I am impressed with the results it delivered, for a consumer grade machine. Get yours in the description!
(They gave me this unit for free, but i was not paid for any review).
Could i ask you what have you studied in college?
@@obaydasarahneh236 I studied Graphic Design, but dropped out 😄
That's all. The rest is just real world learning, and trial and error.
This is great. I thought electronics can only be learned in college
I saw your usb c iPhone video and it impressed me
Thank you 😊
Hello sir my name is Ali am an IT student who doesn't have a laptop or a phone and I want to ask for help of u may help me get one of them I will be thankful for you if not it's okay and am sorry to ask but I can't pay the college loans and buy a working laptop or a good phone again am sorry
I like your sense of humour. Great Project. Awesome result.
Thanks dude 😊
Now that is a smart looking controller! Cool work!
Thanks mate 😀
Man this deserves a million views looks so good
Thanks so much mate
Great job! Kudos on making every part out of wood. I'm also really enjoying the narration on your latest videos
Thanks so much. I'm often unsure about the narration, as it sounds a bit stupid to me sometimes 😄
@@RestoreTechnique I like it. Maybe not every video needs it, like the straight-forward restorations, but I think it works well for these unique projects
Great job! So unique. Am now trying to think of other things you could make with the Comgrow. Amazing what it can do.
Hell yeah new video!!! Keep up the good work mate 👍
That’s awesome
"So it won't give any plastic fumes if it's engulfed in flames"
yeah i feel the phenolic PCB and the styrene buttons have something to say about that :D as well as the varnish.
😁
I beg you, make an entire nes
I had no idea some restoration videos are fake? That’s so disappointing because they are SO satisfying lol
Yep there's a lot of them, usually from poorer Asian countries. Where they "find" the item on the side of the road, after poking through garbage for 5mins. Then once they open it up you can see brush strokes of mud on the inside. And they usually dump electronics in water and scrub them.
Elliot Coll from The Retro Furure has done some commentary on some, and also done a parody video.
What's worse than that is animal restoration (usually turtles), where the bastards glue coral to the turtle and then rip it off them.
These fake videos get lots of views because the thumbnail is of the dirtiest device, caked in mud and fake rust.
@@RestoreTechniqueI've heard about the turtle one, absolutely cruel what they do
@@RestoreTechniqueand what's wrong in dumping the electronics in water and scrubbing? 😅
😲 I cannot BELIVE you dont have more subscribers. This was honestly amazing. Fantastic job! Thanks for sharing. Incredibly video!
Wow thanks so much ☺️
What a great thing! Must be a nice feel to touch compared to plastic
Rise fellow termites, RISE!!! now ATTACK!!!
I didnt termite treat the wood! 🙉
Awesome work, Josh!
Thanks! 😊
I like your sense of humour.
Thanks mate! 😄

I would like to see you build a modern version of the ps1 controller (no analogue sticks) with an xbox series x/s D-pad
Great job, next step. The entire case of Nes in wood ?
Thanks mate 😄
Beautiful

😄
he's like the real life Dilbert
Hey thanks, how so?
Awesome video man
Thanks bro :)
this is ASMR though 🙏
Now even the hippies can play Nintendo
😄👍
Excellent
thanks :)
Awesome man
Cheers mate
Excellent 😊👍
Thanks :)
PS2 controller is NEXT!
🙉
Hey I’m early! Love your channel keep it up and also will you make an iPhone 14 pro usb c?
Thanks mate! I am unlikely to make another usb-c iphone mod. I have some other ideas for iPhone mods though.
@@RestoreTechnique oh that sound really nice. Can’t wait to see it!
This is awesome! Please link the file, i wanna do one for myself!
I thought the buttons would be wood too
Why didn't you use the strains os the cord to guide and pull the wires through?
There was no way to attach them to the wires without adding extra bulk, meaning they wouldn't thread through. The wires only just fit through.
My buddy pointed out afterwards that I could've tried running a single wire through, and then soldering that to the controller wires, without adding any width to the wires. That could have worked.
About the N64 one...🤔
😂 not likely haha
i wonder if you could do this with ps4/5 or xbox controllers lmfao
🙀
Can you make the 14 Pro USB C?
Source: 💰🤑
😆 source lol. Probably not, I have other projects in the works.
Any chance you could make a ps4 controller into a ps5 controller that works on ps4 mobile and etc?
PS5 controllers work on mobile now don't they?
Ok but it’s not all wood. Why not recreate the buttons?
🤷♂️ It's tech meets nature
why you pronounce it as 'nes' when we all know its pronounced 'any s'
