Man do we love the Ben Heck Show, especially when Ben uses the MakerBot Replicator for parts on his electronics enclosure. Here’s his latest mod of an Xbox 360, of course turning the gaming system into a portable laptop. Many of these parts are laser-cut or milled, but a few came right off the Replicator. Toward the end, Ben says he’s very satisfied with the door he made for the disc drive on the new laptop.

…The 3D print allowed us to have the same curve of the unit here, so it kind of matched the contours. And I printed it at a very fine resolution so you can barely see the lines. Worked out pretty good.
