+LS650 Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I've been thinking that it would be very cool looking to make some coloured Jaguar cart shells with resin casting. There was some talk on JS2 of doing this and selling the pieces, but the project is currently on hold. I think it'd be great to have a couple of these coloured shells, and I'm going to look around this weekend to see if I can find the materials necessary in my little backwater town. I tried looking here on AA for info on resin casting and found that some folks have played around with it here for the 2600: http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?s...00&hl=resin Anyone ever try something similar for the Jaguar?

MegaManFan Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 That reminds me - did anybody ever get the mold bought by a dental company to make machines that were virtual duplicates of a Jaguar except for being bright shiny white?

justclaws Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 Hello, I've been thinking that it would be very cool looking to make some coloured Jaguar cart shells with resin casting. There was some talk on JS2 of doing this and selling the pieces, but the project is currently on hold. I think it'd be great to have a couple of these coloured shells, and I'm going to look around this weekend to see if I can find the materials necessary in my little backwater town.Yes, this process was also used on BattleSphere Gold I understand, very labour intensive, but great to see.I did not much like the choices of colours shown before, or the ones with flecks in, but such an option is in itself fantastic. Let us know if you have any luck! On the point of the custom Dentist tool Jaguar cases, the manufacturer suggested they would create some custom cases, and would announce some news on that, but then nothing more happened. I suspect up-front cash was required finally. Cheers, JustClaws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted November 17, 2006 Author Share Posted November 17, 2006 (edited) Well, I've ordered a complete resin casting kit. I should have it in a week or so. Actually, after some thought, I might do something else: instead of casting a replacement shell for a Jaguar cart, how about a replacement shell for a Jagpad controller? I think a crystal-clear shell for a controller would be fantastic... Edited November 17, 2006 by ls650 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broonale Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 How about clear or clear with red tint console and CD drive cases! I'd gut one of mine and put it in without the mental shielding! The controller case might not be as comfortable as the original plastic, but would be cool too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosquare Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I'd gut one of mine and put it in without the mental shielding!Beware. The Jag is quite "dirty" when it comes to RF interference ; I've heard that running it without the shielding causes problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broonale Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Well, maybe I'd have to wear my foil hat while it's on then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jag are quite dirty EVEN with the RF shield in place. My Jag has AV hookup and I still see interference blocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean the fake dental cleaning device that EGM showed as an April fool's prank?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheese007 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 (edited) Last I checked, that was real. Unless you're talking about something else. I would love to see a clear case for the Jag, especially with a blue tint, would look great with the red LED imo.
