Like most home consoles, the Xbox X series is specifically designed for ordinary home theater units. [Michael pique] thought it wasn’t big enough, so he set out to build the world’s largest Xbox series X.
Part of the inspiration for this product comes from a Microsoft invention: an Xbox series X-shaped large refrigerator. However, [Michael] wants to go further, maintain the game functions, and faithfully reproduce the divot and other details on the top of the console.
Carefully position the servo and press the Xbox button
The first step is to build a large wooden frame, which is used to make the basic form of the console. By 3D printing a series of parts, these parts are glued together to simulate the function of the real console itself, creating a lovely curved perforated top. The back also provides a fake giant port that looks exactly like the real one.
However, the real hacker is still inside. The Xbox hardware itself is located on a small shelf inside the frame. When the corresponding button on the giant Xbox is pressed, some servo motors are set to press the button on the real console. There is still a long way to go to make users feel that the build is “real”.
The final building is 2 meters (6.5 feet) high, 1 meter wide and weighs 113 kilograms (250 pounds). This is enough to win the Guinness Book of world records for Michael’s trouble. The building was later donated to a local youth center in Georgia.
We have seen [Michael’s] huge buildings before; His 300% size nerf gun is a special highlight. Play the video after the break.
