Thats what i thought but the cathodes at maplin are 30cm long!! so it'll just fit diagonally, i did read a ad for a company who make customzed pc badges (like the intel ones) i could get a sega one made. Or where the cart goes a really long lecd screen that shows the time, heck i could even put a cd...

I'm not going to sleep yet so i will appreciate any suggestions!!PLZ!!

One last post before I fall asleep: I've decide to turn it in to a lamp, i will make a tutorial with pics,it will be black (but i haven't decided if its going to be glossy) will have a blue cathode,a ultra bright LED (blue) and a black stand. I have also decided that i will use the volume slider to ...

I've looked in the maplin catalouge and the tubes are ?5 and the power supply is ?3 but what color tube and what color case i was thinking black with blue or yellow and yellow what d u think oh i'm also gonna build a stand for it and a might make a little tutorial on it coz there must be hundreds of...

Yeah It would look good on my desk and it would glow through the vents but what color tube would go with:
blue and white (if i do it in that color)
Yellow as you suggested (which i think would look better if it was a lamp thing)

well, i know a lot of people are against "white" consoles, but to be honest, all we have ever seen is a black genesis, i think a white genesis done with a light blue trim would & blue led would be awesome. Yeah I've taken off that ring around where the cart goes and the flaps for the ...

Yeah I can't remember who's I saw but on this forum there was a yellow DC and It was great with a really glossy finish.
Now i've got to decide what to put in it???I've got a spare master system??
I NEED IDEAS!!

Plz

I've looked through my scrap pile and I found:Tons of computer power supply connectors inc cable, a complete Genesis/Mega Drive case!
Its now ready to paint.
But...I don't know what color scheme to do and what to put in it..plz hep guyz

Well in the process of seeing what I can do with it and its now not a busted CD multi changer for spares , it works god damn it and now I think my dad would mind if i used it. Uh, and it was a nice black aluminium case with tons of room!!!!!!!!
I'll have to think of another good mod.

Oh and THharborpunk55 may be right I could change the spindle but he is also right that I could wreck a perfectly good GD-ROM drive!!!!!

I've looked inside and I now know how it works: 1.There are 5 disk spaces on the tray (duh) 2.The CD drive is on a platform and it lifts up the cd when playing and a funny little plastic thing rests on the spinning cd to keep it straight 3.There are two sensors (like on a TV remote) above front two ...

I'll have a good look in the guts of it now and see what i can do.

The changer itself is a big tray and it revolves depending on which disk is selected then the chosen disk drops down on to the drive, but i'll have to check the drive to see if its like the GDROMs spindle!If I do it i'll probably replace the DC's ribbon cable with a really long one and find somewher...

I've got an old multi cd changer and I thought if I replaced the audio drive with the DC's GD rom drive ripped out all the useless cd player boards, lined it up perfect and extented the ribbon cable to the DC so I could have a multichanger DC!!!!
Would this work??
