Question Wii Mobo Trimming

[nmPicard]

As I prepare to assemble my first handheld (Ashida), I have some questions. I know that the most commonly used trimming tool is a Dremel, but as I try to save money, I am wondering if I could use the Bansaw that I have at home. I am also wondering if I can still put in the Bluetooth module in the Wii and still have the Ashida build fit together.

You cannot use a band saw, as the teeth are far too coarse and can delaminate the layers of the board. You can get a decent Dremel or equivalent rotary tool for pretty cheap these days. Here is a list of tools that I recommend beginners pick up. They are all from my own personal use and / or community favorites!

You can absolutely fit the bluetooth module in! Here is how I typically mount the bluetooth module and MX chips in my Ashidas, with the help of a little double sided foam tape.
