this is no where near as far fetched as it sounds tbh, sink all the electronics in an acrylic shell to protect it, this is not that farfetched at all, ... ahhhh you're making that smoke come out of my ears again :D would def be a sick conversation piece at least :)

gogogogogogo, turbo. :)

when I built my dna reo I considered all the possible places to mount the dna before I finally decided on installing it in the base, and the door was one of the things I considered, but not like this with visible circuitry surface mounted and built as the door itself of course, mine would have been a billet door with a raised area to house and hide the dna from behind, but the contacts would be a huge pain to sort out and keep trouble free. dna is better suited towards eliminating the potential for contact issues, not adding to them, so I ruled it out as impractical compared to other options, but truth is it could be done.

to do it with actual dna module components and have it look like this though ideally you'd have to redesign the whole dna circuit board and spread the components out a bit to all mount on the newly designed one sided new board that's also a door, then desolder and resolder each and every tiny little smd component from the old tiny board to the new door circuit board. doable yes, and would be sick, yes, but waaay more effort vs return to me. then again, for someone who is proficient at laying out a circuit board in the right software the actual board design is trivial assuming diagrams are available for the dna. if not then a diagram can be extracted easily enough from the existing dna20 board itself, it's only dual layer so all circuitry is visible and accessible. not something I'd ever do myself but if a new board was laid out and a supplier was secured and they were being developed on the forum by someone like pdib or something put me down for one ;)
