I built this Computer from an old Laptop

  • This is a project called "Ladeck", built with the purpose of personal work. Components such as the camera or speakerphone are removed for security reasons. This project does not have many problems to solve, but it takes a lot of time because most of the details are done by hand. And now, my laptop is reborn and it will continue to serve me in the future.

    Hey guys, I know this thing has a lot of weaknesses compared to the original version, it's bigger, heavier, some functions are removed...but I made this for three purposes:
    - First: Most of the time i work in a single place so i don't need portability, so big and heavy is not a big deal.
    - Second: My work does not require a very powerful system, so core i3 and 6gb ram is enough. (but i have upgraded ssd to replace old hdd) :)
    last: I just want to try designing a new shape and hope it helps inspire me in my work.
    In short, I thank you all for your suggestions, if anyone has any advice please comment below to let me know.
    Thanks for watching !

  • @TinyMaths
    @TinyMaths Před rokem +2

    Old tech can be really useful. I found an old laptop in with a missing hard drive in a skip outside of a house about 8 years ago. I took it home and it sat there for maybe 6 years until I decided to dismantle it and buy an adapter for the screen. It was a gamble but it worked and that screen served me for about a year and a half as a second monitor; until I was able to upgrade.
    I still have the thing and just might use it as a basic display for photos and images, maybe cinema posters. I see a few comments suggesting this was a waste of time, but I think it's a neat looking thing. Kind of a post-apocalyptic feel to it. To me, flawless and efficient design, or functionality are not necessarily the point here; it's more like the artistry. And the fact that it's a unique piece, which you'll hopefully enjoy using looking at because of the aesthetics.

    Just a few observations:-
    at 4:41 - those brackets should have been (countersunk) screwed into the back plate first then mount the LCD,
    at 6:48 - should have checked the level before you started,
    at 9:59 - those sponge mountings wont last 5 minutes,
    at 12:46 - there is no insulation between the copper strips and it will short out,
    at 13:25 - you went to the trouble of underlighting the "pc" but didn't bother to get a backlit keyboard that would have been more useful (and funky),
    at 13:34 - you have put a lamp on top of the monitor that will create glare and and make the screen difficult to view
    Apart from that, not a bad attempt.

      Much easier to clean via compressed air or to access parts to clean thoroughly and to actually see any accumulation of dust happening as it happens unlike a lot of laptops. All computers are prone to dust in dusty environments, this is better for ongoing maintenance.
      The only issue dust causes is to do with overheating parts when it builds up on them too much and restricting air flows.

    Why does everyone keep complaining of how old it looks, unlike other channels, he actually only used the laptop itself instead of buying separate peripherals. I can speak with my experience since I have the exact laptop, albeit a bit more powerful. The monitor doesn’t work so I converted it to a desktop pc instead, but the process is still pretty tedious. I bet you can’t even get out to create one for yourself, so you can’t just “complain”
