Cobalt Flux Wii, Step 2 – Close but no cigar

I’ve been slacking off. Thanks to The Orange Box, I’ve been Portaling, Episode 2’ing, and listening to “Still Alive” over and over again (and having a hard time sleeping because of it.)

Anyway, since I had something more important to do, I decided it would be a great time to make some progress on Cobalt Flux Wii!

First, I decided to just cheap out and scratch that conductive shizzle off and lay those traces bare.

Scratchy!

That is as simple as scraping them with a utility knife blade.

Next, I whipped out a green scrubby and made it all shiny like.

Shiny!

Then… I did some really horrible soldering. I ditched the X and Y leads, as I have the old school Flux pad.

Icky!

Finally, I closed it up. I would have soldered the dsub to the end, but… I forgot whether I needed male or female. And it’s late.

Pretty?

More… later…
