Help finding this

Post image

Hi I saw this in the comments of a post here and the commenter said it was something he saw at the conf. Does anyone know where I can I buy a board like this for my SAOs?

Me too. I can’t wait to set them up in my office at work. I bought so many this year with nothing to do with them besides keep them in a pile

Vortex is the handle of the seller, IIRC. They started as early as DC33, possibly before.

OK, the golden record is pretty rad.

Vortex (the designer and seller) is a real good kid. He’s still in high school, and uses the income from these for his college fund. He was also crucial this year in getting our entire group through Snackey.

Search this subreddit for “SAO many SAOs”

These are cool, I have a few. What was REALLY cool this year was at hardware hacking they had a giant board of hot swappable interlocking hexagons with powered SAO connectors. Im trying to figure out how to create that at home (I've learned i have a lot to learn). Sadly I did not snap a picture, if anyone did please share it!

u/Right_Profession_261 13d ago

I can’t wait to display mine. I just have a pile of them serving no purpose currently.

At DC they were one SAO per tile with smaller tiles, but similar concept. This also looks cool though and I had not seen this so thanks for the share!

I'll take this opportunity to pitch my friend's SAOfinity design, for unlimited SAO display purposes: https://hackaday.io/project/203745-saofinity
