How do you burn ROMs to carts?

[Walky]

I'm close to finishing my diy cnc milling machine, so I think I'll be making some nice custom wooden cart cases very soon

I'm planning to use the same machine to make the game pcbs (most of them simple, no-mapper ones), to make some nes carts REALLY from scratch (well... except for the software side by now)

Wouldn't a wooden cart damage the Famicom?

Why? Wood doesn't conduct electricity.

[vgthing]

not if it's made well!

[nintendodork]

I meant the Famicom's shell, unless it was sanded really fine, wouldn't it scratch the part of the shell around the cart slot?

[Walky]

Of course, the cases will be sanded very finely.

I've been doing some tests with the machine, here's the last one I did today (acrylic):


Accuracy FTW!!

I'll really look forward to seeing those wooden / acrylic cases Walky!  If  they're nice I'd consider buying some from you - assuming they're easy enough to make?  One thing I have noticed is that you can't go sticking any old PCB in a fami cart, as because all the PCBs are different all the carts had different plastic pins and struts to keep the PCB in place.  It's not hard to work around, but it is worth bearing in mind.

Yeah, wood cases would be totally awesome.

I'd like Wario's Woods in wooden casing.

How would you go about makeing repros out of these?

Godamnit, i forgot to write Repro Pak.
