Felt case for dingoo digital a320 by AlvinMaker
Featured
Don't be too harsh because this is my very first Instructable. I wanted a simple & cool looking case for a Dingoo Digital A320 that I'm going to get next month for my birthday. It's a super cool little game thingy, so I wanted to have a game theme. Since i don't have it yet I needed a form that was the right size. I found the measurements and cut it out of a piece of foam, then I realized that it's almost the exact same size as an old nes controller. That made choosing my theme easy & it's even better because i don't have to scale anything :) yay for not having to do math. The math isn't that hard anyways. It should be fairly easy to modify my plans for almost any other device. So i guess, here it is. I hope you like it. :D


Ingredients you will need:
black, red, & gray felt (the gray felt i got was called "easy felt" it was stiffer & easier to work with)
elastic
something to form it around
a sewing needle
thread
scissors
glue gun
something to mark your felt with, i used a ball point pen

Step 1: Measure Thrice, Slice Once

Mark out all your measurements on your felt before you cut anything. Measure a few times just to be safe. Even though I don't necessarily follow that wisdom all the time I try to stress it often. I actually measured wrong a few times on this project & would have ended up having to do it over if I hadn't measured again. Once you have all your measurements marked out, cut all the pieces out of your felt.

Thanks I'm glad you like it. I'm not going to be getting mine till sometime next month so you'll have let me know how it works out. I also forgot to scan my page of sketches with all the dimensions on it, but i'll add that tomorrow so that it will be a little easier to follow.

Thanks a lot, how nice of you! I'll check those sketches when you upload them
I'll be making mine during this week, I have to go and buy materials, but it might take a while because my exams are starting tomorrow T_T
I'll send you photos, though =D
