WIP--A poor mans jig/I-want-it-noaw-jig

[H1B1Esquire]

READ EVERYTHING!

So you pretty much take a coat/pants hanger, remove the bar, pop the clips off, wiggle the metal bits in your Switch until they fit(?), possible profit. The last pic is to show you the plastic might have a use/safety measure to not stab yourself.

I can't think or test this right now, but I feel like we have hit the jackpot.

Feel free to fudge around with stuff. I was thinking of using tape and an eraser from a pencil to add stability™.

If it works, cool; if it doesn't please, understand:

I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS 100%, PLEASE, UNDERSTAND WHAT THE FLYING FUDGEWINKLES YOU'RE ATTEMPTING AND THE FACT YOU COULD SHORT CIRCUIT A.K.A. "DUN' FUCK'D UP" YOUR SWITCH.


"

Just to reiterate ... Jamming random conductive materials across pins is not a very good idea. If you short the voltage pin to another pin you can seriously reduce the life of/or totally take out components in the device. If you short the voltage to the ground, it can damage the battery (depending on if the device is properly protected or not).

At this rate I'm half expecting someone to suggest spitting in the groove to get into RCM mode.

I'm waiting for a key chain accessory, a specifically made-to-RCM-joycon, or a backwards L-shaped USB X jig with a click button.

Initially, I was going to take a LEGO brick, Xacto knife it down, heat up some metal bits and melt a hole in said LEGO brick........but this is easier.

 

[jefffisher]

is everything you own gross or just the things you managed to fit in these pictures?

That could be arranged. I'll test it tommorow!


...No. Really. Im actually pretty sure that will work.

As long as I clean off the saliva so it doesnt make the switch grow things, I'm willing to try it!



As for the OP, isnt the spring a little thick? or are my springs just thicker than yours?

I work with big springs. Nerf involves a lot of them.

 

[H1B1Esquire]

isnt the spring a little thick?

I'm unsure, it's still WIP. I literally had to open a tube of Liquid Nails for another project and started to give the kids (not my direct children) in the house the clip to hold since they wanted to "help" when they broke the clip and I had a brain jizz. If they are too big, I plan to use a push pin-thick eraser combo, followed by, "wacky, unsafe-safety pin".

Spoiler: Optional comedy

Then, at the behest of @ Zoogie, I'm going to skip spitting in my Switch and just jizz on it.

....

just gonna ignore that last statement.

A simple fat paperclip will do, too. no bending, justmake sure it appears to be touching as many pins as possible.

Yeah, I was a little heated from earlier--I'm running on 18 cups of coffee, barely any sleep, have to make a choice regarding the women in my life and the future (it's one of those, "Female A is totally my type as far as personality goes, but not so D.D.G.; Female B is omigawd hawwt, but has......stuff going on"), having to work out a job in the city , but I still have a job that I have to wrap-up, and another job that I begin on Monday and I don't know how to balance my time, taking care of kids that aren't mine, running a house as a single dude, I'm physically sick from working hard shifts for the past six months, have a whole lot of other things going on, including forcing my neighbor to cut this fucking tree down before it falls on my garage ,and I got some fool throwing a completely off-topic "joke" on a thread I'd like to get an answer for.

TL;DR:
My level of adulting is on Hard Mode and I can't use Game Genie or Action Replay to get past this part.

For you:
I could bend a paper clip, but my thumb is wrecked from a 50 lbs+ bumper crushing it between a concrete floor. I've got problems. They hurt my everything, on every level.

No, don’t, it’s a terrible idea. Spit has a higher surface tension than water, so it’ll try to form big globs, and you’ll probably end up shorting multiple pins. Seriously,!:9&6””@“

Remember the guy who actually broke his pins by using a paperclip? These things are HUGE! They are gonna break the pins in no time!

 

[Justinde75]

I know a permanent way
Smash the pins with a hammer as hard as you can

 

[H1B1Esquire]

Just to reiterate

I'm adding this, so it can be reiterated, if it wasn't iterated in the first place...but I think I did.


@hippy dave
waiting to use this:

when someone puts their dick in a toaster and their Switch in a microwave.

Remember the guy who actually broke his pins by using a paperclip? These things are HUGE! They are gonna break the pins in no time!

I don't remember that guy, but the above image can apply to him. The clip really isn't that big--it's a camera trick. You should see my nudes. Not sure if I'm bragging, pandering, or compensating.....fuck it, I still do pretty well

You should try the method and let me know how it goes. My hangup is that I'm getting conflicting reports about pins, as in 1&10, 7&10, 7&9, etc,.

Sir, please make a tutorial on this. I can't, for the life of me, figure this out. The pins go where?

Man, you guys make this make sense:

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

@porkiewpyne

If you'd be so kind to remove these:
"is everything you own gross or just the things you managed to fit in these pictures?"
"I think you missed the EOF"

That'd be great, thanks....because it too, is off topic. Do you work for Glade or GBATemp?
Reported, regardless.

I mean, sure, send them my way.

I don't have a Switch. ;_;

 

[H1B1Esquire]

I don't have a Switch. ;_;

Your ability to input in this thread has dropped considerably.

You can also read my sense on a certain "___."

 

[WiiHomebrew+Snes]

You really are a poor man, that's my current desktop. A dell precision, and from the looks of it around 2011.

 

[H1B1Esquire]

You real

Oh, man.....thanks..I thought you were going to be a baby gangster.

Good thing you can have this jig noaw without sounding like a poor man.

As for me, yeah I have money and buy the shit I want. Your initiation of a competition is fail. Try again. or don't. Fuck it. You won't get banned, be warned or have your messages removed.

I'm also sure you know me sooooooooooooooooo well that this is my oooooooonlyy computer.

Get the fuck out of here.

...My paperclip method probably connects multiple pins too. When I tried it, I just gave up on precision after 4 tries and tried to connect as many pins as possible...
then it worked.

Spit is harder to remove than paper clips though, so it probably would leave several pins connected. I won't do it then

Still willing to try though, should I find a way to clean it off.

 

[Mnecraft368]

I have a strange method too. I was getting desperate, trying to get into RCM. All design I found online failed, so I made my own.
I made a joke to myself to use the ground pin on a RPi GPIO pin so I could be sure I was hitting it. I wanted to try that, so I took the LCD screen I had attached to it off then stared at the bottom of it for a second... there were holes to stick the pins into. I thought this was even better, so I wouldnt even have to hold the wire. I took a piece of wire, put one end into the hole and held it down with blue tack. Then, I put the other end against pin 10, and after practicing my positioning, finally got into RCM mode.

Strange method, but it works.

(old picture, ignore the fact that the wire is in the +5V pin )
