How to Install Greg Collins Custom 3D Printed Cases onto the RetroTink 2X Line Doubler
In this video, we show you how to install Greg Collins' 3D printed case and buttons for the RetroTINK 2X.
One of the worst parts of retro gaming is the struggle to connect your old consoles to modern TVs and have it look good. There are cheap AV2HDMI adapters, most of which look like garbage. There's the Framemeister and OSSC, but that they both cost hundreds of dollars. The RetroTINK 2X is a great tweener product which improves the video quality tremendously without breaking the bank.
One minor grumble with the device I have is, with fat fingers, it can be a bit of a struggle to access the 2 settings buttons. Greg's case addresses this simply and easily with a new, 3D printed case that is pretty easy to install on your RetroTINK 2X.
Tools Needed:
5.5mm Nut Driver
#0 Phillips Screw Driver
Difficulty: 1
The case itself is available in four different colors. Gray, as you see here, black, orange which is similar to the spice orange GameCube, and indigo. All of the cases are 3D printed, they feature the RetroTINK 2x logo molded or printed into the top, little holes for the LEDs to flash out of, + 2 ports for buttons to slide into to activate the filter and resolution settings. Overall it is really well put together
To disassemble the RetroTINK 2x, you'll simply need a 5.5 mm nut driver.Remove the metal nuts from the top of the unit, along with the long standoffs that supported the top part of the case. With this the PCB should slide right out. play sit in the bottom part of the 3D printed case, and install the two buttons into the top of the case. Flip the bottom of the case upside down and place it on the top of the case.
You will use the nuts that you removed from the original case on the bottom of this new case to help keep everything together. Four new Phillips head screws are included with the kit to tie everything together. Be careful that you do not over tighten the screws, particularly the ones on the same side as the buttons. If you over tighten these screws the buttons may not operate normally.
You should have the process completed in just a few minutes, it's a super easy process to go through. if you are looking for more accessories for your RetroTINK 2x, check out the separate power supply with inline power switch available from CastleMania Games. Another one that I highly recommend is the Mini-to-Standard HDMI port adapter that Ryan sells on the site as well. It makes it much easier for you to connect your RetroTINK 2X to your television with whatever length HDMI cable you have.
The RetroTINK 2x is an amazing little piece of hardware, and thanks to the community it keeps getting better and better. Thanks to Ryan at CastleManiagames.com for sending us one of these cases so that we could show you just exactly how easy it is to install.
