No. Not that I know of. It’ll be hard! I’m sure someone’s done it before, but you’re really not meant to.

Xwhatsit’s installation documentation is all good. Check out the Model F procedure. You’re looking at that, but extra hard and unsupported!

is there any guides which show me how to prepare and solder a xwhatsit controller thanks

Thank you for your help

Thank you this going to really help me

Could be fiddly, mind. You're talking about a good long straight slice, right across this:

Yeah, of course you can.

Is there any guides which shows this thanks

I double-checked to make sure I wasn't hallucinating, especially because I used one of these templates on an F XT within the past year or two. I was right! It's the first post on page 5 of that thread. I don't know if this will work -- I've had direct links to files fail before -- but here's a ...

I have a model f xt which does not seem to work (I have tried multiple searers converters). I was thinking if there is anyway to bypass the original controller by using xwhatsit and chopping of the old one. Alternatively if anyone has a working pcb I would like to try that instead. Thanks

I know this thread is about a template, but here's something that works really well for me. To mark the foam, I like to put it between the front of the barrel frame and the back of the backplate, holding them firmly together with binder clips. The foam should be sandwiched nicely and won't give ...

I am looking for the foam templates from Wcass but I cannot find it can someone link the post to me. Thanks

I have used the attached file for F AT foam and it was a perfect fit. I have not looked at the other files (I only manipulated them so they can be laser cut).

I did a quick check. I think the templates start on page 5.

Sorry I meant for the xt version

I am looking for the foam templates from Wcass but I cannot find it can someone link the post to me. I am looking for the model f xt. Thanks

I meant to say if we could half screw mod it

Is there a way to screw mod it without taking apart the barrel plate by just drilling the back and screwing it.

Do we have to remove all the springs and membranes or can we screw it from the outside
