Pictures of some of my Modded PS1 consoles

Hi, I'm new to this forum and I thought I would start off by posting some pictures of some of my modded PS1 consoles. One of them is painted green and white, one has blue LED's and they both have perspex windows and mod chips installed.























I am currently working on a third PS1 console that is going to be 100X better than these ones, I think I will post up a project thread somewhere with all my progress in it.

 

Really nice paint job on the first one

 

Wow, very nice. I'm not crazy about case modification of older hardware but this is a pretty good exemption. Totally prefer the second over the first, nothing against your painting skills but I definitely prefer stock over paint, but nice work none the less.

Please do post that progress thread you mentioned, I'd love to see that.

 

I really dig the window mod, I need to do mine.

 

Ya that clear window looks awesome. Not keen on the green/white combo but the paint job looks excellent!

 

Whoa! Really cool.. must be weird to see the disc spinning in there!

 

Nice and clean mod, i like it!

 

Very professional looking. Thumb up.

 

Thanks for all the feedback guys! I will post up my progress of my new project soon

 

Hi if you pay for postage both ways I will mod a lid for you for £15. I live in the UK btw

P.S I can also do Xbox 360 case mods like this:

 

It's not safe to make a window where laser is though.

 

Why?

 

And for the most part a disc will be covering the laser anyway?

 

I'll try my best to explain how I did it.

The tools you will need:

1. Drimel tool
2. A rounded file
3. Sand paper
4. A compass

1. Remove the lid from the console.

2. Flip it over so you can see the underside of it, then there is a small circular dot of plastic in the middle, you want to get a compass and dig the needle of it directly into the center of the plastic dot, then use the pencil end of the compass to draw a circle around the lid so you now have a guide line to cut to.

3. Put a small circular cutting blade on your drimel tool and cut about 5mm away from the line on the inside of the circle all the way around until the middle section pops out.

4. Then you want to put a round sanding pad on the drimel tool and go around sanding away the unwanted plastic. You want to sand about 2mm away from the line this time but be very careful not to go over the line.

5. Then you want to go round it with the rounded end of your rounded file going directly up to the line this time.

6. Finally you want to smooth it down with some sand paper, start off using 180 grit, then go over it with 320 grit, then finish it off with 600 or 800 grit.

This is as best as I can explain it without making a tutorial video. If you didn't understand part of this or have any questions let me know and I will be happy to help.

 

Maybe, but That's how you get it looking good. Any to be honest, it only takes me about 20 mins to do. If you have all these tools then it really isn't hard at all. It probably sounds a lot harder than it is.

 

looks awesome, great work

 

I really dig the green and white combo. Nice tutorial as well!
