I'd be interested to see pictures of all the parts before assembly and then after assembly.
Yea.....I do not have the skills in electronics or mini-computers to build a game-accurate operational Pip-boy. If I could I probably would....
So a glorified phone holder is the next best thing.

I am back home now with my scans, and 4 1/2 pages of doodles and measurments. Gonna redesign the bits that need, hope to be printing this by tonight.
