I’m very proud of my latest project. Couldn’t have made it without my X-Carve. Useful info:
By knowing the diameter of the top arc I was able to determine the length of the arc and the angles I would need to cut the four pieces to make the arc and the length of each piece. (OK, I don’t get points for sentence structure.) but who knew Mr. Hoyte’s geometry lessons would pay off just 53 years later. Tools used to make mp3 player: X-Carve, k40 Chinese laser, table saw, band saw, scroll saw, belt sander, drill press, palm sander, soldering pencil, glue gun and assorted hand tools.

The decoder board is very well labeled. I used a 3 AA battery holder I already had.
It also has a micro USB socket for power. Like the one on most android phones.
input slots are for either a micro SD card or a USB thumb drive.
4gb micro sd card can hold as many as 1500 mp3’s
Thanks for the info might look into it.
