OK guys, I would have bought the right tools but I have been out of a job and bored with nothing to do.Yea I done some mods and stuff but when your broke your broke....Unemployed, so when I first got into modding or fixing game consoles never thought I would go as far as I have . not that I have gone Far. But I have learned quite a bit in what 10 months.
These are tools that are all over the web to make...even some here from ACIDMODS its self. So Just thought I would share these with you to show my little bit of what talent I have and that I can follow instructions....from time to time. all these work and yes I have made a few mistakes makeing them and learning from them.
For the Orignal xbox my first repair . replacing what they call a super capacitor which keeps the time and replaced the harddrive that went bad on me to a 40 gb harddrive. all i had at time to use and was out of work then also.

Looks good man. You should go and try and get even a minimum wage job while your looking for real work, so you will at least be bringing in some money.

hey, just a question about the probe, can you use that to power any other xbox 360 dvd drives? I built a small umm thing lol using a molex connector and a few resistors with schematics i found online but i found that when I plugged it into my computer, it wouldnt turn on :(
-
The probe is not for powering the DVD drive, it is the tool that was used on the 78750 Liteon drive to retrieve the drive key when installing a modified firmware. I built one too, but it wasn't nearly as pretty, just on a perf board
-
Here is a you tube Video thanks to (JohnnyMcKinney) he shows you how to with a usb powered like mine is. So mainly between the two i came up with the diagram from xbox-scene and his video and used the 5volts from a usb.

Yea I didn't take the time to double check the model number, and I guess I should have put the pretty as "pretty", that is how it was in my head.

thats a womens word....lol pretty, but thanks and i figured you just forgot the number or just were busy so i corrected it so people wouldnt be asking what drive....lol

That was the point of using the word, which is why I said I should have put it in quotes, kinda of a "look at rodent, his project is so "pretty", it makes mine look like crap." lol

Never seen yours so how do we know it looks like Crap?.....lmao OMG someone gonna comment about that....lol

Too easy, I won't even go there. Anyway, your stuff does look very nice and finished. (Better?) I don't usually try to make that stuff look good, when it is going to be something only I will ever use and not even that often. Now if I were selling it/giving it to someone, or doing a tutorial, I would make it a little nicer. When I do RF mods, they look very neat and clean (on the outside at least, I only have one color of wire, so I don't color code).
