Nice! How is the fit?

Only time will tell.  I don't actually have a DUO-R or -RX so I have to send the door off for independent testing at an offsite lab.

Does anyone actually need one these? I thought the black doors were a fringe product...

looks good, wonder how it feels compared to the original console shell.

I've made about 50 of the DUO doors so far. People keep asking me for DUO-R doors all the time.

Fantastic! I'll be needing some soon. Not sure how many yet but I'll let you know.

Think it would be possible to make a cover that could be attached to the original pce? Dunno if it would work but it would be pretty cool I think.

I could make a cover but you would probably have to drill some holes to get it to work right.

Huzzah!  I need one for my unit for sure.  If you want to send to this independent tester let me know.

Yeah. I'd be up for doing that if it looked cool.

If someone could loan me with a PC Engine to work with I will see what I can do about making a custom door for it.

Looks like I need to move the left side latch peg up just a touch and move the from curve back in just a bit.

Yes! Well done! Duo-R Covers. I have my cover but I just might want a backup. Love your work.

Post by: ginoscope on February 02, 2016, 12:45:56 PM
Those look great and the attention to detail is impressive.  Those pics looked pretty good to me.

Do you typically print one and test and then do more or do you have to print them out in batches?  Good stuff I been loving my everdrive cover.

Post by: wilykat on February 02, 2016, 03:13:29 PM
I should get a spare for my R as well. Those don't last forever, it takes just one bad luck like a sudden sneeze while inserting game or a crazy cat to break the original door off.

For testing I don them one at a time. When I do "production" I usually print 10 at a time.

Looks like you have the testing you need. I have a beat up duo-r shell I would send you if needed. This isn't something I could ever sell in good conscience but would be great for something like this for donation purposes.

OMFG! Where have you been? lol This would have ridiculously sped up the process. I couldn't send the top of my Duo R to him because of how the region switch is installed and I couldn't send him my entire console for obvious obey reasons. So I've been testing the doors for, what seems like, umm... 1,000 years. hehe.

Well, if he still needs it just pm me. If you are in the states I will send it.

I had no idea about these doors until recently. This top looks like it was pried apart at the controller port.  But the hucard slot is intact.

Sent out the top of a Duo-R shell 2-22-2016. Hopefully it helps. :)

Looks like when this gets finished there will be enough us tossing cash around to make it rain.
