I wonder what would the price be if you made a TI-81 one.

What would happen if you dropped it (as I do to my TI-83+ at least once everyday on accident)

Wow, this is looking awesome :O

I wonder how heavy it is

Imagine one made of solid lead 

Thanks for the compliments. 

I saw the video and this thing looks nicer than a regular 82. I especially like how you made the keys like a ti83+/84.

Great job ! The original 82 is ugly imo, and you fixed that.

I agree, I think the TI-83-esque makeover is an improvement!

Shut up and take my money!
Well, assuming the auction doesn't go up to $1000 or something and/or that I win. I always wondered if you would ever produce multiple copies of this or put the first to auction one day

I remember seeing this over at Cemetech. It's really a beauty. I'm actually kind of surprised that you're selling it. I've got it on the watch list for now.

Thanks for bidding/watching! Yeah, it'd be cool for me to keep it forever, but I know there are other in the community who would enjoy owning it, while I have the ability make a new one, plus I bought a mess of 8 Dell D620 laptops and am now broke, so I hope to raise funds to repair them.

Sort of cheap for something you seem to have put a lot of effort into.

Sadly thats been my experiance with handmade crafts 

So true. But it depends on how I look at it: in one way, I paid $15 for this and am selling it for possibly $50; a $35 profit, which is decent. On the other hand I put 34 hours of work into it, making my wage about $1 an hour, not so good. So depends on how I look at it.

Question: What ROM does it use? I have a 82 with ROM 16.0 that can barely run anything because most programs were made for ROM 19.0 and 19.0006 >.<

Actually it has 18.0!  So not 19.0, but I have tested and ran CrASH, zTris, Penguins, and some other stuff with no trouble.

Well, while I wouldn't say it's lighter than a normal 82, it's still pretty light, because maple is light. Also, if you dropped it it'd probably do pretty well - maple is quite tough and strong. I like it. Though I wouldn't recommend dropping it over 2 feet to a hard surface. Oh, and some hot-glued components inside might come apart

Liquid Nails >>>>>>> hot glue
(with wood at least)

the 81 is much cheaper than the 82 on Ebay, but since it's the first TI calc, it would most likely have a bigger interest from the TI community, nostalgia-wise more than coding-wise.

That was what I was thinking

Ah well I just use wood glue for wood.
