MiSTer FPGA - Commodore 64X - Full Build and Tutorial
26All products brought and shown in this video were from money, there has been zero outside influence for this video and no products have been donated.
My personal goal was to build the best MiSTer FPGA product that I could and enhance with some after-markets scripts and products.
This video is the complete end to end journey in sequence that will show you everything you need to know.
The work shown is a combination of multiple products being installed into a premium product which is the Commodore C64X and elements from those videos have been lifted to create the complete picture.
If you have already seen the Zaparoo video and the Mini-ITX video on this channel then it may help to share that all the new content is from the Intro to the beginning of Part 1 and the entirety of Part 3.

A major shout to Sean ( @myretrocomputerltd5179 ) from My Retro Computer who provided me the STL files that I am hosting the modified versions from this video on this channels Discord. Thank you for your support and also such a quality product shown here and without those files, this would have been a much bigger piece of work.
Thanks to Sewready on eBay for selling me a custom cover on my order.
I must also acknowledge @whatskenmaking and his channel, What's Ken Making on YouTube. He gave me the idea to get this case.
I also want to pimp out this thread at the official MiSTer FPGA forums, there is a post there that is a 100% coincidence in the idea done, however when I saw that photo I thought I need to mention it as they had the transparent case and the same joystick as myself ( https://misterfpga.org/viewtopic.php?p=86893#p86893 ).
