I've always been the sort of person to mess with stuff or try to make better than was already good, so I've been bizzy messing with my lads old Angel.
Since My had given up on the idea of buying an Ion, because a lad on here was selling an Angel force board, I thought that I would convert his Angel IR3 by adding eyes.
All of the process has been documented on my Magix site so you can have a look or follow the instructions at your own risk as I will hold no responsibility for your screw-ups.
Parts needed:-
An eye using board (Tadao, Spitfire or similar) £40 second hand Angel Force
A set of tweezers £1
Wire heat shrink insulator £1.50 Maplin electronics
Computer jumper leads £1
Laser eyes £6.50 Slothball delivered
Total £50
Tools needed:-
Bench drill or corded drill and drill stand
Various files (Medium flat, Triangle)
3mm drill bit
4mm drill bit
Hair dryer
Soldering iron
Fluxed solder
Multimeter
Some small pieces of wood
Spirit level
Bench grinder
Bench vice
Scissors
Craft knife
Allen keys
Phillips screw driver
Spade ended screw driver
Pointed nosed pliers
Flat long nosed pliers
Small rubber ended mallet
Another pair of hands at one stage
And the most important, the misses to P*#S of out cus of the bits
Always keep your workspace clean and use soft cloth or a piece of carpet like I have, so not to lose parts or scratch any Anno.
Have a look at the process and result and make your own mind up if you thought I was mad
