So I Had A Little Fun In My Engineering Class...

I'll leave it up to the mods to decide if this is in the right place or not.

Anyhoo, today was my last day of school and the last project I did in my engineering class was this thing called "Reverse Engineering". Engineers usually create parts of a product and then assemble the whole thing, and the idea of Reverse Engineering is that you're working backwards from that (hence the use of the word "reverse").

Being a game nerd, I decided to do it on a GameCube controller. Click the spoiler to see the results...

A little over a month. Then I ended up going to war to get the stupid thing reassembled... >.<

Awesome Reverse Engineering!

I also had a picture of the disassembled controller, but I couldn't find it. I'll post it here if I can though!

Alright, did you get it back together and working again?

Yeah, it's still working fine.
