Hello! I'm so excited to finally start this worklog, and in turn, this project. I'm building an Ashida and I've recieved a lot of my parts. Most of you know the specs, so I won't go into them, but I will talk about some goals with this.
I want to do these things:
An additional thanks to @CrazyGadget for his Driver Board. It allows me to keep all the buttons assigned to their intentional spots while still being able to easily access the screen's menu.
I've disassembled the Wii and I'm about to draw the outline to trim it. As I'm doing the Ashida build, it will be an OMGWTF trim. And man is it tiny. I'll post pictures of my setup and Wii with the outline after I get it all set up. I just wanted to post this to get the whole worklog process started. The goal of today is to get it trimmed and sanded, while possibly doing the relocations today. The only issue is that I need Kapton tape and it isn't here yet and I want to start the trimming process, so I'm gonna just hope I can do the relocations. If I mess up on any (but hopefully not all) it shouldn't be a big deal, but I will definitely be heartbroken.
Anyways, that's the introduction. I'll be back shortly to post my trim outline and possibly double check if it it won't destroy my Wii, but I'm gonna cut far outside the line and give myself a lot of room for error.

- Wifi Relocation
