Hey, tech side of Tumblr. Does anyone know anything about 3DS XL hinges?

The Right corner of my 3DS XL broke, and when I was trying to line it back up to fix it, I fumbled it, and the hinge corner fell out.

Now, being a dumbass in despair, still grieving my nan's passing and incredibly stressed over my 3DS's breakage, I closed my console, put the hinge back in, and tried to open the console. I jammed the hinge.

I took the hinge corner apart to try and see what actually spun, and I found that I had totalled this little bugger here:

So I went and purchased a new one. That new one looks like it had been whacked out of shape. Mine is marked with gold sharpie, the new one is unmarked.

Even though I don't have any idea what a 3DS XL hinge axel is supposed to look like in an unharmed state, the new one looks wrong.

Also, I have no idea which way is open and which way is closed, which is fun. If someone can help me with identifying if a 3DS XL hinge axel is in the fully open, right angle open, or closed state, I would appreciate that a hell of a lot.

I have built a rig that should assist me with repairs. I can use it to hold my 3DS XL in the fully open position indefinitely. If it'd be better for me to fix it when it's in the one click open state, I am more than able to re-do the required parts of my rig accordingly.

I plan on sealing the casing closed with milliput. If it can keep a small boat afloat, sealing the gap and adding a new layer to the shell can keep my poor 3DS XL from snapping again. And because of how permanent a milliput repair will be, I NEED to get this right.

I will not be replacing the front casing. The idea of taking my poor 3DS XL apart that much scares me, and repair shops near why I live are really not in the question, as when I went looking for a 3DS battery last summer, they all recoiled in pain at the word 'Nintendo'. (Except CEX, but I don't want to ship my 3DS away to get it fixed).

I plan on making what amounts to a hinge axel valve to see if I can un-fuck my hinge, and see what state the new hinge is in, and will update at various stages of my repair accordingly.

If I cannot obtain a hinge that I know will not break, I can and will just put a dowel in (with a new hole for the dowel in the hole slot because of the oval shape of the hinge axel), but I want to do right for my 3DS XL.

List of things I need help with:

What position would be best for my 3DS XL to be repaired in? I have a rig made that holds my 3DS XL in an open state, but if it'd be better for me to fix it when it's in the one click open state, I am more than able to re-do the required parts of my rig accordingly.

An open question...

Is there a way to access DeviantArt's cache? There's an artist I used to like who's still accessible on there, but who apparently purged a good third of their previously-uploaded content. There's one piece I liked and that I'd like to view and/or save for reference, but the Wayback Machine is frustratingly unhelpful in that regard. I can access the Deviation's old page, but the image itself is a broken image embed.

I'm largely asking seeing as services like FurArchiver allow you to scrape FurAffinity's backend, and was wondering if anything similar existed for other platforms.

Olá, venho trazer uma postagem explicando sobre o desafio mais famoso aqui na comunidade.

Essa postagem é uma adaptação de várias, mas deixarei todos os links no final.

O que é o “100 Days of Productivity”?

Traduzindo do inglês, significa “100 Dias de Produtividade“. É basicamente para você fazer qualquer coisa produtiva durante 100 dias, mostrando que de pouco em pouco, você consegue ser uma pessoa produtiva. Esse desafio foi feito para te impulsionar, te ajudar a conseguir motivação para fazer suas coisas.

Só alertando que apesar de ser um desafio do Studyblr, você pode usar para qualquer coisa, mas o foco dessa postagem é a comunidade. Assim como você não precisa ser um Studyblr ou Studygram para participar.

O que posso classificar como produtivo?

Bem, isso vai inteiramente da sua concepção. Alguns blogs daqui podem considerar que estudar 2 horas por dia; estudar 3 matérias; organizando sua mesa/espaço de estudo; terminando toda sua lição de casa; ler um livro, coisas assim.

Precisam ser dias consecutivos?

Não é uma regra, já vi vários blog fazendo não sendo consecutivos, mas a maioria faz. Para começar um hábito é melhor que seja feito todos os dias (mesmo que seja um pouco), mas não se sinta obrigado. Se quiser pode deixar de fazer um dia, sem se sentir mal com isso, desde que você continue no próximo.

Quando eu posso começar?

Quando quiser! Pode ser no começo do ano (caso esteja perto de começar) ou do mês, assim com existem blogs que começam no início do ano letivo deles. Participe quantas vezes quiser, se quiser fazer um após o outro ou dar uma pausa, vai de você.

Como faço para participar?

Você pode documentar através do Tumblr ou Instagram (ou qualquer outra rede social), postando uma foto/texto por dia do desafio ou uma que equivale aos dias, assim como pode postar apenas quando tiver vontade ou simplesmente, fazer às escondidas, isso fica a seu critério.

No caso de postar no Tumblr, pode colocar a legenda de sua foto/texto em que dia que está do desafio (ex: 3/100 dias de produtividade ou 3/100 days of productivity) e existem as tags #100 days of productivity e #100dop, que são em inglês e #100 dias de produtividade.

Tenho que postar fotos?

Você não precisa, se não quiser. Como disse você pode fazer independente de rede social ou se quiser postar, não precisa ser necessariamente fotos. Já vi várias postagens apenas explicando como foi o dia e os objetivos para o próximo.

Como posso ter o controle dos dias?

Aqui na comunidade existem os chamados imprimíveis ou printables, neles ou em um calendário comum mesmo, você pode ir riscando os dias até dar os 100. Vou deixar uma lista com alguns que achei por aí, então você pode decidir qual ou o que usar:

A new hinge has been ordered from an independent seller who really seems to know what they're talking about, and my hinge valves that I made out of milliput are curing, so I've done all I can for my repair journey today (except repair rig improvements).

If the hinge valves don't work, I can file the hole on the thing I'm making, fill it with fresh epoxy putty, and re-smush the part in and hope for the best.

The part will arrive late next week earliest, so it gives me time to experiment with my poor busted hinge and the pre-busted thing. Also, I'll probably be adding a one click open stage bar to the rig, as the first open state will give me better access to the back of the device for shell repairs. Though I would have to tape my console in to secure it for the repair this way (taping it in will prevent any future pratfalls though so good idea).

I should probably also test if milliput actually adheres to a 3DS XL casing. And what tools would be best for applying the epoxy putty in such a precise manner.

The hinge valve didn't work as planned. It fits the parts in, but the part turns in the mould before it turns itself.

However I did find that a working hinge's position can be estimated by seeing where the semi-circle on the white bit sits in the right place when the hinge is inserted into the hole in the screen segment.

Also, the foot of this part seems broke.

I have asked the guy that I ordered my new hinge from where the foot goes/is supposed to go as the product I ordered is the hinge and this thing here, and it seems that the foot just holds everything sturdy.

The more I look into it, the more it becomes clear that gluing the casing back together is just delaying the inevitable. Epoxy has been known to crack in a matter of closes, glue - in my own experience - cracks after a while too. So an inner frame replacement was always going to be inevitable.

But I did learn something; taking the parts apart and totalling the hinge was probably the best thing to happen to my 3DS XL. If I was able to glue it without having the corner fall off, I'd simply be back here in one or two years time with the same issue. But finding out the pure extent of the damage will allow it to be repaired.

I will be taking my poor 3DS XL to a professional, as due to the recent death of my nan, I have been too shaky and stressed to perform this repair myself, and whilst my parents do have the dexterity for this repair, I'd rather leave it in the hands of someone who can recover the data if something goes wrong.

So for all of you who have this issue, present or future, try to keep the hinge corner inside the console and glue it as a temporary measure, and just do the inner housing replacement as soon as you're able.

AND DON'T HOLD THE CORNER WHEN YOU OPEN AND CLOSE IT. AND DON'T PUT YOU'RE FINGERS ON THE FRONT YOU'LL STRAIN IT. <- me yelling at myself because this is the dumb shit 13yo me did that caused the strain that caused the breakage a few years ago and earlier this month.

Updates will still come, probably once I've got my poor 3DS XL repaired. Maybe some before if something interesting regarding the repair shops happens.

Finding repair shops that are willing to do this in the UK are a pain.

I have found websites for TWO, but both are hours away. I will be near one of them soon for a concert, but still, hours away from home.

So I purchased a new DS Lite. He's a bit dusty and didn't have a GBA cap (probably why he cost £55), but I can at least play most of my collection whilst I find a repair shop. Whilst I do have a pink DS Lite that I've had since I was like, 8, the D pad and hinge (upper screen) is broken, so I can only play games that don't use the D-pad. Red now lets me start to collect GBA games (because all those suckers use the D-pad)!

There is apparently one place in my hometown high-street that may be able to do the repair on the day in person, but they weren't open today.
