What a wonderful end to this adventure! This video has brought so much insight into the production of the Pip-Boy. The team really did a great job with what they could and I'm so glad I was able to get my hands on one with all the add-ons. They're beautiful pieces of art. And thank you for tearing apart yours so I don't have to. 😂
For your clock what about the old Kindle screens which only need an electrical charge to change the display, but unpowered just leaves what was last displayed?
Honestly, if they would make a fully functional Pipboy that could link to the game like the fallout 4 app did on smartphones. I'd pay like 400-500$ if it actually worked.
That is the most funny thing you've said so far, "You'd think clock making would be easy!" Horology is one of those things that's as much if not more of an art than a science. I wouldn't want anything to do with that! Makes taking apart phones look easy!
Hey man just wanted to say this whole series inspired me to become an electronics engineer 4 year ago. I love rewatching this video, I'm graduating with my bachelor's this summer. Thanks for being an inspiration!
You are a true hero. I tried looking into all of this a while ago, a few months or so, and ended up getting stuck basically everywhere. But you did so much work and research I never had time for. So now if I have time again, I can try to make everything great like you did! Keep up the awesome work! I had so many ideas for my own custom Pip-Boy mods but never really got around to them either where it just got annoying that I never had time to work on anything. Anywho, awesome job!
@@YourGeekFix Ack! OMG! I didn't think you'd actually reply! Hehe sorry, but yeah. I can't wait to finish it, myself. I'll try and figure out a way to show you when it's done! Probably won't be much different than yours but it'll probably be a while since work has kept me busy a lot lately. Anyway thanks for getting back to me!
It's been two years since, when I saw your first pip boy build, and I remember this odd quote that resonates in within me when the Pip-Boy was shown for everyone to see; *"When you first saw halo, were you blinded by it's Majesty?"* (Halo 2 Quote). Blinded? No, It's more like I was *Awestruck* and this Pip-Boy was an exception. But Honestly, this is an Incredible Journey to see and thank you for taking the time to make that Magnum Opus. I hope my gratitude was enough to see more and other works in the Future. Thank You Again - Your Longtime Fan MrAlTheOrdinary
Love it! I remember watching part one of this series when it came out, but life happened and I completely forgot. This has been all over my recommendations, and as soon as I saw those BlackBerrys it all came back to me. :)
Your cannibalism is exceedingly pleasing to my philosophical views on problem solving. There is nothing new under the sun, solutions are only intangible momentarily, relatively speaking of course. Exceptional work, carry on my son! ❤
I appreciate all the time and effort you put into these updates and videos. I have had mine since release unopened and after watching all three videos recently I’m interested in modifying mine and ready to start the project.
Chris Bernardo must have enjoyed your designs. it surprised me that the geiger counter was not small enough for the 3 buttons to be usable. I have considered making the 2000(not the 2000 mark VI), though I feel there may be quite a challenge to recreate since the majority of the parts are difficult to fit into a condensed shell. good luck in your 2nd recreation of the icoinic pipboy. may your progress be fruitfull. Also, I noticed you could have just put in a digital clock rather than the analog as you show example of someone doing eairly the episode. perhaps do that instead?
@@YourGeekFix , there are ways. 1st option blurry transparent material: makes the numbers appear more rounder. 2nd option: rounded transparent. Same but take the og mold and create a mold using clear (type used to make dnd dice) resin. And slap it on top of digital clock(note make sure the digital numbers fit where the mold directs it to) Of coarse it is OPTIONAL. Thx for your thoughts though.
Honestly its something that could be built from the ground up, with its own screens and software, and even a cassette player and such. It would just take a need and a will to make one
Wouldnt a Arduino be able to do a lot of that? From the Clock to the Counter to the wifi? Using a stock LCD screen wired in. I know when I was lighting some Star Trek models the Arduino was able to control everything from start up, to the flashing, to Shut down and everything in between and that was just the basic stuff. Or even a Rasberry Pi? What you built was amazing though!

His 2 biggest problems are as follows: 1. Thinking he NEEDS a retailer (middleman) instead of BEING the retailer. 2. VASTLY UNDERESTIMATING WHAT FANDOMS WILL PAY FOR WHAT THEY WANT
@@YourGeekFix I want to really badly say "yes" as a joke. But in actuality I was wonder about a finished product. Say a pip-boy that I can actually wear and mess with. Just as the thumbnail shows. The "power" button, the holotape slot and an actual working display. I see kits online that can be bought but those all require painting and stuff I'm not good with. But for a fully made and "functioning" pip-boy that's painted and ready to go. Would that be something you guys sell or is it just a kit that requires assembly and the dreaded painting? I say dreaded because my artistic skills are far less than zero. I'm working on saving money and have always wanted a pip-boy as a collectable.
@@moviemaker2011z the wand company made the kit and modules, buy it has been discontinued. Ebay has some, but pricy now. As far as my upgrades, very reasonable priced and easy to do, but that is best for you to d9. Better to show off and enjoy when you do the work.
@@YourGeekFix I see, thank you for responding so quickly. I will definitely keep your modifications in mind when I do get the money saved up and pull the trigger on that sale. Again thank you so much for the information it is greatly appreciated.
Where did you say the sound was coming from when you loaded up the holotape? You're like, freakishly close to making a real working Pip-boy is drives me nuts... Like, all you'd need now is an os that works like the Pip-boy while still giving access to all the important settings and stuff, what about a script that automatically plays whatever is on a holotape when it's read, auto connecting to their wifi when their name is noticed etc. if you put some guts in the upper area with the big button on it you could maybe use that button to turn the whole phone part on and off, maybe make different clicks do different things; single press for sleep, double for flashlight, long press for shutdown. It would be an elegant move to replace those fake rubber ribbons with the real thing too, durability may come into question though. I think the fitbit for the clock was a fine solution, and if it were on a low brightness setting and powered by the phone somehow it would be honestly perfect to keep it on at all times. I've never been too clear on how the radio module actually worked for changing stations either, like, did the knob scan for stations and just pick what it found, or were you actually scanning around with the knob. I kow the rubber band and the finger on the dial are for show so I'm not too sure what logic it's using to tune into FM radio if any.
One day I will get a second kit or replicate the parts somehow and try to make these changes to it, I think it would be a big win to find a way to power the whole thing from one source even if you turn on separate parts one at a time. I don't know if they exist but if there were domed touch screens that could be like the holy grail solution to making everything just look right, I don't know if that would be possible though. Touch controls on the Pip-boy are not strictly part of the universe but in playing on mouse and keyboard the idea that you press specifically where you want to press somehow feels natural to me and I would want to endeavor to have that implemented over the knobs and buttons actually doing anything on the screen end, those knobs and switches are carrying the other modules anyway, maybe one free knob for volume or brightness I don't know.
@@riceniceman548 Sounds good. The top is where the speaker is. The red button turns it on and off. The cables to charge that are the ribbons you see, not the rubber ones. The black knob lets me use the assistant and put the phone in different modes. The phone also allows me to access and sai hi to another pipboy made this way.. Nate Purkeypile, the head artist for 76 said the two knobs could never do the extent of what it does in the game. You would need more knobs or a topuch screen, my touch screen makes me happy. The great thing about phone tech is that a lot fits in a small quarter inch space. Best of luck.
@@YourGeekFix so the phone retained its speaker, that's awesome. It seems like a lot of the things I imagined you already did, that makes me confident in my thinking that I'm on the right track on how this would happen. It's so crazy to me, like, we could use a raspberry Pi like device to run a custom os, we have websites where we could commission custom boards for different implements, we're so freaky close to making this chunky hunk of retro future tech actually functional with a little help from our own (opposite of retro future) technology...
@@riceniceman548 No, you may want to watch the first two videos where I go in more detail. There is a small bluetooth speaker in the top section. The radio tunes to the stations using the toggle. And the knob switches it to the fallout universe. The toggle is able to do several things, including volume.
The Clock Section is a bit anoying, because it feels like you are try to "overshout" the way to loud Music. You realy should check the Volumes before uploading a Video. Somehow this Problem several Chanels have. Not sure if its usual to made Music so loutd, so you have to concentrate to blend out the Music to understand the Talk.
SO, youtuibe made a change and most phones do not support it. Try listening on your TV or computer and you will find it works great and sounds just right. I stopped trying to compensate for it and as new phones come out that support the change, it won't be an issue.
The Easyest fix for Musik is taking over voice: Equalyser the musik and the voice :D i make some Movi likeGaming stuff, so i deal whif alott Lout musik and Voice all the time. My best methode is, wen voice is there, the musik get mor bass, make the middlefrequenses alot quieter and reduse a litlebit the hig tones. Whif that you even can wisper over musik. The voice of caus need som EQ as well. easy say: voices are generel very midtonehavy.vor better understanding it, you need the higer tones. Here yyou must be carefule,to not bring to mutch hig frequenses up. Spechaly 3k-12k frequenses are very individual vor any other human voice. also it helpt alot to brting down the around 800hz frequencys, to get rid of the telefon destortion, or the destortion/resonance effekts of mikrofone housings. it also sound mutch easyer on hadfones, bekaus this frequencys we humans are trained to listen there, so it is very sensiv, and a comressor, or normaliser voce stuff overshouting this very sensive parts of our listening. also, voices shod be not overcomress, compressor is nice, but not all the time. compressors give typikal the feeling of shauting, bekaus basstones come visable to late, mittones often way to loud, and hisounds are tend to wash out. Better is to Equalys first, stet volume, and than give a little bit compression over it, and maby corekt again the eq. and if you arnt happy whif it, reset all, beginn from new. the realy important thing is also, to have very neutral mixing hadvones. like Senhiser HD440 are grade. (Hadfones soud be not to crasy in bass, like the sony ones, this are not good for mixing. it result in mostly to less bass in edeting, and also to highevy. also its not got to use hadfones whil to less bass, bekaus that end in having to much bass or in to less higs. so it muust be a very neutral sounding one ;D) And do not use automatik volume reducer vor the musik.i know there are tools out there, that automatikly bring musikvolumes down, wen voice audio is playing. this is very anoing to here and add nothing good ;D but put manual musik down is mostly a good idee, in fitting situations of cause ;D Example: a Fallout merch fake add must be whif lound musik and voce, ad the beginning, but then fast the musik make room vor the voice, and also go fast bach in full volume, wen the voice end and the musik is left.
@youarieyellowmissile listen a gain on speakers on a computer. UA-cam changed their phone and earphone settings, so stereo stuff was off and music was being heard sometimes without any voice. So, what it sounds like is not how I made it initially. Sounds good on good devices.
@@YourGeekFix The amount of work, effort and attention to detail in this video is already in the top 0.001% of YT. I have no issues with the audio and even if there was it wouldn't be an issue at all with the quality of this content.
a version with muted music ? I dont know , I might be the only one being bothered by it , maybe not 😅i understand some people like it , but I find it very annoying sometimes 😁
You’re an idol to me, you have no idea how much I love the fallout franchise, It’s the shame the other project broke but I can’t wait to see this! Thank you!
@@YourGeekFix how would I get one of these with working parts, at least the screen and radio, Geiger counter isn't really necessary for me to have because it will never go off Edit, I should also mention that price isn't a problem
one of the best mods for the pipboy ive seen. alot of people just make an illuminated screen and do a paint job but my man made the thing entirely functional
The first thing that popped in my head when he said "76 wasn't as successful as they hoped" all I could think of was thanks Bethesda if you would not have focused so much on forced multiplayer and more on the story, the game would have been a success, yes people wanted multiplayer however multiplayer isn't as important as the story
This shows why Chris made the right decision. In order to do it right he would wind up building a bespoke machine that would require a strong Market. The truth is there isn't a market for a 2 and 1/2 kg gigantic cell phone that you wear on your arm. We have no need for everyday use of Geiger counters or exposure meters and no one listens to the radio anymore. That said this is one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
@@YourGeekFix i did way back when Think-geek released the mark iv, still have it all new in its box, also just watched the video *you* recently did on the series die-cast replica. Thank you will definitely pick it up.
I just pre-ordered their Pipboy 3000 Mk V! This interview was fascinating. Absolute gem of a channel. Subscribed and I need to go back and watch part 1 and 2.
When people modding the Pip-Boy, Instead of the Radio that they Provided For the Pip-Boy, They instead use a Small Bluetooth Speaker and fit it inside of the Pip-Boy Radio. I only saw that they Did this in a Punished Props Academy Video.
Looks awesome! Great job! Just Pre-Ordered my Pip-boy from IGN. It’s a faithful replica of the Fallout TV show’s pip-boy with LCD screen and animations. Even has USB charging apparently. Was surprised it was only $200.
it woud be so nice to give the klock a nother try :D Yes it will be komplicadet, and maby very expansive, But: The Pitboy is in one or oher way A very very overfechered smartwach, so the clock is the part, that maby like the geigerkounter the most important part! ;D maby you must go vor a sligtly bigger enkloser vor that, i woud not see a problem for that, a working turning ckock is it so woth it! also, the pitboy woud bekome a realy useful even when you not were it, bekaus it show you time, days and sutff, it woud be a amasing deskitem! preas, give the klock a nother go :D my atampt woud be: rubber weels that drive individualy the numberweels from behind. the motors can be more easy kontrolt by elektonik programming. also the rubber weels kan have multiple sises, to make room vor each other, so, you can use multible motors anstead komplikaded gears. But, if you use geras, make then visible. i see no reasons to hide nice cool geras ;D maby even the whatchletters it self cud be 1/6 a gear it self, so you can insteao of rubber, gear in the back to turn the letters. i think a combination of tuning from inside and from behind can you get the clock, that we want ;D
Use a Nintendo switch pad with touch screen then use that to make the Pip-Boy work by connecting the buttons to the phone itself and program it to work
A wonderful adventure. You really have great ideas and always, or mostly, find a solution to realize them. And the C=64 was an awesome machine. I miss mine ...
VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION, here's hoping you see this. I have search through the description rigorously, but was unable to find the 3d models of the buttons or the buttons themselves and what not you mentioned. It would greatly aid me in my own project! Thanks!
I had to put them under the video I described for taking apart the clock because youtube has a limit on words. You'll find the video link at the end of the video.
Hello me as a software engineer How I would had done ( if i had time and money ) Raspberry PI+ small screen to mimic pipboy interface with functional stuff. GPS Module ( small ) + Geiser counter portable wifi( remove casing) Speaker module connected to raspberry PI to produce the geiser sound. Connect geiser counter to wifi and consume api to get sensitivity data make rad sound when geiser activity happens ( choose intensity on menu)
i remember 3 years ago i was 13 and looking for a pipboy online and it was $150, thought i would never get one, and i was right, prices for ones that aren't put together by now are like $300 and with all the modules and holotape kits its like $700 and together its like $1000 by now ):
@@YourGeekFixOh wow, hopefully they are still at that price by the time i get enough money for one that would be awesome, and as for the modules if i got them i wouldn't put them in the pipboy i would put them on display stands just to show them off
I know it's basically impossible. Mostly cause I don't think there's a CRT that is small enough But. Somebody should make one with a CRT. To truly be game accurate.

Does the Geiger Counter work in sync with the Geiger counter in Fallout 4?
No.though our new app does.
Helped inspire me to get more technical
Great!
I’d want to make a functional pip-boy.
If not just some kind of, pip-boy with working buttons or controls.
Now is the time. Parts are cheaper
why not use a tape counter for the clock, similar sort of thing they had in cassette decks in the 70s/80s/90s
I have one. Now with that in mind. This is smaller than those would fit in. Look at the nail of your pinky, it has to be smaller.
I bought a pip boy 2000 kit today now all I want to do is upgrade it to work lmao
Awesome! Was it the special editions?
@YourGeekFix yeah its the vault tec skinned edition. I just dont have any of the know how to modify this thing haha
@@VivaLasVibez Not hard at all. The Geiger counter mod I showed is very cheep and easy to do. SO is the holotape actually.
@YourGeekFix it's mainly just a working screen I want haha
The fallout 4 pup boy has the cable you could use as the USB charger port l.
Yup. That is how the new MK V works as well. Did you order one?
Literal goosebumps
Awesome!
I hope Samsung decides to make a Pip-Boy
Lol
Lol
I don't need it! But i want it! 😁 So is it possible to buy one?
@@HappyDude1 no
Do you have a source for the buttons you used?

Super underrated
Thanks
Ok, any one else excited about the upcoming Fallout series on Prime?
I am
Add camera to back so u can take photos and upload it to holotape
Good idea!

So cool.
Thanks
Question, is there any possibility to buy this product?
The pipboy 2000 kit or the completed mod?
@@YourGeekFix I want to really badly say "yes" as a joke. But in actuality I was wonder about a finished product. Say a pip-boy that I can actually wear and mess with. Just as the thumbnail shows. The "power" button, the holotape slot and an actual working display. I see kits online that can be bought but those all require painting and stuff I'm not good with. But for a fully made and "functioning" pip-boy that's painted and ready to go. Would that be something you guys sell or is it just a kit that requires assembly and the dreaded painting? I say dreaded because my artistic skills are far less than zero.
I'm working on saving money and have always wanted a pip-boy as a collectable.
@@moviemaker2011z the wand company made the kit and modules, buy it has been discontinued. Ebay has some, but pricy now. As far as my upgrades, very reasonable priced and easy to do, but that is best for you to d9. Better to show off and enjoy when you do the work.
@@YourGeekFix I see, thank you for responding so quickly. I will definitely keep your modifications in mind when I do get the money saved up and pull the trigger on that sale. Again thank you so much for the information it is greatly appreciated.
@@moviemaker2011z sure
If you made these and put them in a shop i would get it
You should make one
I will try @@YourGeekFix
Where did you say the sound was coming from when you loaded up the holotape? You're like, freakishly close to making a real working Pip-boy is drives me nuts... Like, all you'd need now is an os that works like the Pip-boy while still giving access to all the important settings and stuff, what about a script that automatically plays whatever is on a holotape when it's read, auto connecting to their wifi when their name is noticed etc. if you put some guts in the upper area with the big button on it you could maybe use that button to turn the whole phone part on and off, maybe make different clicks do different things; single press for sleep, double for flashlight, long press for shutdown. It would be an elegant move to replace those fake rubber ribbons with the real thing too, durability may come into question though.
I think the fitbit for the clock was a fine solution, and if it were on a low brightness setting and powered by the phone somehow it would be honestly perfect to keep it on at all times.
I've never been too clear on how the radio module actually worked for changing stations either, like, did the knob scan for stations and just pick what it found, or were you actually scanning around with the knob. I kow the rubber band and the finger on the dial are for show so I'm not too sure what logic it's using to tune into FM radio if any.
One day I will get a second kit or replicate the parts somehow and try to make these changes to it, I think it would be a big win to find a way to power the whole thing from one source even if you turn on separate parts one at a time.
I don't know if they exist but if there were domed touch screens that could be like the holy grail solution to making everything just look right, I don't know if that would be possible though. Touch controls on the Pip-boy are not strictly part of the universe but in playing on mouse and keyboard the idea that you press specifically where you want to press somehow feels natural to me and I would want to endeavor to have that implemented over the knobs and buttons actually doing anything on the screen end, those knobs and switches are carrying the other modules anyway, maybe one free knob for volume or brightness I don't know.
@@riceniceman548 Sounds good. The top is where the speaker is. The red button turns it on and off. The cables to charge that are the ribbons you see, not the rubber ones. The black knob lets me use the assistant and put the phone in different modes. The phone also allows me to access and sai hi to another pipboy made this way.. Nate Purkeypile, the head artist for 76 said the two knobs could never do the extent of what it does in the game. You would need more knobs or a topuch screen, my touch screen makes me happy. The great thing about phone tech is that a lot fits in a small quarter inch space. Best of luck.
See my other comment. m
@@YourGeekFix so the phone retained its speaker, that's awesome. It seems like a lot of the things I imagined you already did, that makes me confident in my thinking that I'm on the right track on how this would happen. It's so crazy to me, like, we could use a raspberry Pi like device to run a custom os, we have websites where we could commission custom boards for different implements, we're so freaky close to making this chunky hunk of retro future tech actually functional with a little help from our own (opposite of retro future) technology...
@@riceniceman548 No, you may want to watch the first two videos where I go in more detail. There is a small bluetooth speaker in the top section. The radio tunes to the stations using the toggle. And the knob switches it to the fallout universe. The toggle is able to do several things, including volume.
Unfortunately it seems that roger bosse has deleted all his videos so you can’t see his version of the build 😢
That's too bad. I think he put some info on the RPF
@@YourGeekFix yeah I was going to do a similar build , what is the rpf?
@@fireteamcali6803 not sure, but James did the same one at mrmalto4 on the rpf

Ok
"they want to make $25 too"
The question is
"do they deserve the same profit for almost none of the work?"
Capitalism is whack
Are you talking about the speaker?
The Clock Section is a bit anoying, because it feels like you are try to "overshout" the way to loud Music.
You realy should check the Volumes before uploading a Video.
Somehow this Problem several Chanels have.
Not sure if its usual to made Music so loutd, so you have to concentrate to blend out the Music to understand the Talk.
SO, youtuibe made a change and most phones do not support it. Try listening on your TV or computer and you will find it works great and sounds just right. I stopped trying to compensate for it and as new phones come out that support the change, it won't be an issue.
The Easyest fix for Musik is taking over voice: Equalyser the musik and the voice :D
i make some Movi likeGaming stuff, so i deal whif alott Lout musik and Voice all the time. My best methode is, wen voice is there, the musik get mor bass, make the middlefrequenses alot quieter and reduse a litlebit the hig tones. Whif that you even can wisper over musik.
The voice of caus need som EQ as well. easy say: voices are generel very midtonehavy.vor better understanding it, you need the higer tones. Here yyou must be carefule,to not bring to mutch hig frequenses up. Spechaly 3k-12k frequenses are very individual vor any other human voice. also it helpt alot to brting down the around 800hz frequencys, to get rid of the telefon destortion, or the destortion/resonance effekts of mikrofone housings. it also sound mutch easyer on hadfones, bekaus this frequencys we humans are trained to listen there, so it is very sensiv, and a comressor, or normaliser voce stuff overshouting this very sensive parts of our listening.
also, voices shod be not overcomress, compressor is nice, but not all the time. compressors give typikal the feeling of shauting, bekaus basstones come visable to late, mittones often way to loud, and hisounds are tend to wash out. Better is to Equalys first, stet volume, and than give a little bit compression over it, and maby corekt again the eq. and if you arnt happy whif it, reset all, beginn from new.
the realy important thing is also, to have very neutral mixing hadvones. like Senhiser HD440 are grade. (Hadfones soud be not to crasy in bass, like the sony ones, this are not good for mixing. it result in mostly to less bass in edeting, and also to highevy. also its not got to use hadfones whil to less bass, bekaus that end in having to much bass or in to less higs. so it muust be a very neutral sounding one ;D)
And do not use automatik volume reducer vor the musik.i know there are tools out there, that automatikly bring musikvolumes down, wen voice audio is playing. this is very anoing to here and add nothing good ;D but put manual musik down is mostly a good idee, in fitting situations of cause ;D Example: a Fallout merch fake add must be whif lound musik and voce, ad the beginning, but then fast the musik make room vor the voice, and also go fast bach in full volume, wen the voice end and the musik is left.
@youarieyellowmissile listen a gain on speakers on a computer. UA-cam changed their phone and earphone settings, so stereo stuff was off and music was being heard sometimes without any voice. So, what it sounds like is not how I made it initially. Sounds good on good devices.
@@YourGeekFix The amount of work, effort and attention to detail in this video is already in the top 0.001% of YT. I have no issues with the audio and even if there was it wouldn't be an issue at all with the quality of this content.

Thanks Leo!
How you only have this little recognition on UA-cam escapes me. Production value is absolute top-notch. Well done!
Thank you Benjámin Bartha-Tóth! You are awesome!
The first thing that popped in my head when he said "76 wasn't as successful as they hoped" all I could think of was thanks Bethesda if you would not have focused so much on forced multiplayer and more on the story, the game would have been a success, yes people wanted multiplayer however multiplayer isn't as important as the story
True!
This shows why Chris made the right decision. In order to do it right he would wind up building a bespoke machine that would require a strong Market. The truth is there isn't a market for a 2 and 1/2 kg gigantic cell phone that you wear on your arm. We have no need for everyday use of Geiger counters or exposure meters and no one listens to the radio anymore. That said this is one of the coolest things I've ever seen.
Thanks
Well, uh... I still listen to the radio...
Hell yeah! Now make some Power Armor.
We'll see.
And now the *MK iv* is selling for $600+ and the modules are all $100+ A working *pipboy deluxe edition* is $1,000+ 🤦♂️ wild.
That's why it's best to buy the new one before they stop selling.
@@YourGeekFix i did way back when
Think-geek released the mark iv, still have it all new in its box, also just watched the video *you* recently did on the series die-cast replica. Thank you will definitely pick it up.

Awesome! I hope you enjoy the other episodes.
When people modding the Pip-Boy, Instead of the Radio that they Provided For the Pip-Boy, They instead use a Small Bluetooth Speaker and fit it inside of the Pip-Boy Radio.
I only saw that they Did this in a Punished Props Academy Video.
Not a fan of the Bluetooth speaker there as I have one in the top as well.

@@YourGeekFix which means you can play fallout 1 and 2 on your pip-boy
@@FalloutHelper Perfect
bethesda knew damn well what they did when they put his designs into the game without saying anything, they are known for that shady practice

Looks awesome! Great job! Just Pre-Ordered my Pip-boy from IGN. It’s a faithful replica of the Fallout TV show’s pip-boy with LCD screen and animations. Even has USB charging apparently. Was surprised it was only $200.
I am good friends with Chris and the Wand Company and will be traveling next month to see it.
There's probably clocksmiths on UA-cam or experts like Clickspring that could get the clock to actually work with some specialized tools.
Maybe
it woud be so nice to give the klock a nother try :D Yes it will be komplicadet, and maby very expansive, But: The Pitboy is in one or oher way A very very overfechered smartwach, so the clock is the part, that maby like the geigerkounter the most important part! ;D
maby you must go vor a sligtly bigger enkloser vor that, i woud not see a problem for that, a working turning ckock is it so woth it!
also, the pitboy woud bekome a realy useful even when you not were it, bekaus it show you time, days and sutff, it woud be a amasing deskitem! preas, give the klock a nother go :D
my atampt woud be: rubber weels that drive individualy the numberweels from behind. the motors can be more easy kontrolt by elektonik programming. also the rubber weels kan have multiple sises, to make room vor each other, so, you can use multible motors anstead komplikaded gears. But, if you use geras, make then visible. i see no reasons to hide nice cool geras ;D maby even the whatchletters it self cud be 1/6 a gear it self, so you can insteao of rubber, gear in the back to turn the letters.
i think a combination of tuning from inside and from behind can you get the clock, that we want ;D
Use a Nintendo switch pad with touch screen then use that to make the Pip-Boy work by connecting the buttons to the phone itself and program it to work
Ok
for the clock what if used a small car odometer
Go for it.
A wonderful adventure. You really have great ideas and always, or mostly, find a solution to realize them.
And the C=64 was an awesome machine. I miss mine ...
Awesome! Thanks for watching and being a part of our community.
I used my C64 for 2M Ham Packet Radio!!!
Who knows, with the fallout series running the interest will probably increase again.
Maybe

VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION, here's hoping you see this.
I have search through the description rigorously, but was unable to find the 3d models of the buttons or the buttons themselves and what not you mentioned. It would greatly aid me in my own project! Thanks!
Of course I finally find it when I post the comment...
I am curious as to what buttons those are though.
I had to put them under the video I described for taking apart the clock because youtube has a limit on words. You'll find the video link at the end of the video.

Hello
me as a software engineer How I would had done ( if i had time and money )
Raspberry PI+ small screen to mimic pipboy interface with functional stuff.
GPS Module ( small ) + Geiser counter portable wifi( remove casing)
Speaker module connected to raspberry PI to produce the geiser sound.
Connect geiser counter to wifi and consume api to get sensitivity data
make rad sound when geiser activity happens ( choose intensity on menu)
Ok
i remember 3 years ago i was 13 and looking for a pipboy online and it was $150, thought i would never get one, and i was right, prices for ones that aren't put together by now are like $300 and with all the modules and holotape kits its like $700 and together its like $1000 by now ):
They do gain value. However, I have seen some go on ebay last week for 120 to 150.
@@YourGeekFixOh wow, hopefully they are still at that price by the time i get enough money for one that would be awesome, and as for the modules if i got them i wouldn't put them in the pipboy i would put them on display stands just to show them off
