New Article: Cleaning a Swarf Invaded X Box 360 Controller

[C-Bag]

Interesting read, great documentation.

While I appreciate the documentation and I certainly don't mean it as a ding, I wonder how it could be called a homemade tool?

I'm always trying to dive these plastic devices and find the comment that these things are assembled by unskilled workers with the idea that it is easy to reassemble not reassuring. In this case it was true and the fact the case was assembled with screws was a great bonus. Too many times though I've run into stuff that was either glued or snapped together and I can only conclude it was never meant to come apart without breaking it. They want the kids to bug their parents for a new one and to throw theirs in the waste stream.

So I'm always appreciative when I find a great doc like this that clearly shows the steps and the fix. And can help me decide if I want to tackle it or chuck it. Great job as usual.
