Replacing Mobius outer case

[xreyuk]

Hi all,

I've been modifying a spare outer case to fit a B&W polarising filter to the camera.

To change the case on the mobius, is it just remove the two screws keeping the case together, and then a simple case of undoing the three screws holding the logic board in?

Yeah I looked at that, I just wanted to check there was nothing else I needed to disconnect before removing

Be careful with those very tiny screws! I managed to lose one even though I was being very careful. Fortunately I have a large selection of tiny screws and bolts I've been collecting over the years for just such an occasion.

Looking forward to seeing some photos of your mod.

I would have given you some pictures, but unfortunately the mod didn't work. Still cannot get the filter close enough to the lens.

Think it's time to buy a filter from eBay, buy a spare lens cap and give that method a go!

Or go see a nice 3D movie

The mental image I have now of a big hammer and a Mobius modification is really kind of ugly......

My current solution was so elegant too

When you stumble across this newly lost screw you can add it to your collection. Now I know how you built up the collection in the first place

I actually just found it earlier this evening! It was right about where I'd left it in the first place but it might have been hiding under my keyboard for a little while.
