I have been tinkering with wii crap for a while now and I recently acquired a 5th wiimote. So now its time or make it ugly and mod the hell out of it. My plan is to incorporate it into a gun body by adding my own buttons. I quickly cover old ideas and if your interested in them check out my old videos for a how-to type video (they do not require you to "destroy" a wiimote). After watching them, one person even asked me to do a video like this but it was a while back.

This new concept is not complete yet but the infrastructure is ready. Just gotta stick it in a shell.

Items Used:
Electronics Solder (Flux core is good)
Flux (Not acid, use a "no-clean" flux)
Tape for masking* (needs to be heat resistant)
Buttons and wires
Wiimote (obviously)
Soldering iron (Pencil style is best)
Metal File, Steelwool, Damp Sponge* (For cleaning iron tip)
Third Hand* (for when you say "I need another hand")

* These Items are not exactly required. i.e., I use a dremel to shape and clean the iron or tape is not needed for persons with good soldering skills.


Thanks to Sik for his camera work and the song.
