Re: 3D printed serial connector.

just got them in. Fit a bit too snug so I'll need to sand them down. Also the pin holders are not as deep as I hoped them to be, so will need to make them deeper some how. But since I got a bunch definitely room to experiment with! Excellent! Keep in mind that when the pins are added, the fit becom...

Re: 3D printed serial connector.

This is a really cool idea! In in the past I've avoided making my own serial connectors (from AGP slots/HDMI connectors and whatnot) and I use a Neo-Geo Pocket Color cable's official connector for various tasks instead. This looks like a much better way to come up with your own connectors. Side not...

Re: 3D printed serial connector.

Thank you very much for making this! I am considering using a service like craftcloud3d.com to print this model. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with 3D printing or stl files. It seems whatever data is in this file, it does not supply these services with with the right real-world dimensions as sho...

Re: 3D printed serial connector.

Hey, this is great! I don't know how feasible it would be with a consumer 3D printer, but one could maybe augment this with a cylindrical cavity for the bases of the pins that allow the pins to be threaded through, instead of needing tape. Like a wire guide, as depicted by this cross-sectional ASCI...

3D printed serial connector.

Hello everyone. I recently challenged myself to create a 3D printed serial connector, as I have seen it mentioned previously, but out of what I saw no one has actually made one. The result was a working connector, but the process of putting it together was a massive faff, and has room for improvemen...

Issues using coders cable with Dreamshell's ISO loader.

Hello everyone. I have recently started modding my Dreamcast, making a ft232rl based coders cable for it, along with a replacement fan and battery. I also have setup the latest version of dc-tool-serial, 1.0.6, with the baud rate set to 1500000. When launching Dreamshell via dc-tool-serial, I get a ...
