Life so far

Well its been a while since I last posted on this blog. Things have been going pretty good, Watching ricky and Zack grow up is always fun. Getting up every morning at 6:00 or earlier not so much though. Our family was sick over Christmas holidays. I apparently had a touch of pneumonia. That was not fun at all. Stacy and the kids went down to her parents and I was here to work for 4 days and cough my lungs out. It was nice to be able to sleep in though I must say :-). Lately Stacy and I have been catching up on our favorite TV shows and playing our favorite game World of Warcraft. I will touch on some of those in individual posts. Over my bout with pneumonia though I was able to play and beat my new Star Wars Force unleashed II game. It is very fun and the downloadable content for the endor level was well worth the 1$ on PS3 network. Well today is the sliding party and the kids are getting excited for it. We sculpted the sliding hills and they are pretty good. There are nice bankings so they curve away from the house. That is all for now I will write more later... Maybe...

Designing a PS3 Display Case

Ok so where I work has a games room.

I have been unofficially the Games room guy for getting new gaming consoles in there.

A few years back we installed some X-box systems in there and I have been keeping them up to date.

This year I pitched getting 2 PS3's. The idea is to get downloadable content on it and have them in there ready to play.

Problem: How do we secure the PS3 and wireless controllers.

Solution i found a site that had custom made a display case for the original PS3.

Problem: it would be way to big for the PS3 Slim which is what we bought.

Solution - Measure the PS3 and get them to custom build it.

I spent about 3 hours over the last couple of days doing this and now have all the specs on it.
I first tried to search the internet for PS3 measurements but couldn't find anything.

So I am posting it here in the hopes that someone else may have an easier time with it.
