When Jankbu needed a new machine, he decided against buying a ready-made laptop. He spent months designing and assembling a cyberdeck around a Raspberry Pi 5 that delivers reliable power for browsing, running design software, and handling workshop tasks.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-244040\"\/><br \/><iframe title=\"I built a modular cyberdeck!\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gIWp_F9PPzI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><noscript><iframe title=\"I built a modular cyberdeck!\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gIWp_F9PPzI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><br \/>\nThe main display here is a 10.1 IPS touchscreen that is mounted on a clever vertical sliding mechanism that folds down to cover the keyboard when you park the device. It\u2019s lovely and firm, thanks to the use of steel linear rods and linear bearings; there\u2019s no wobble in sight. The display connections are routed through a tiny cable chain repurposed from CNC machines. That way, they won\u2019t be pinched or strained as the screen moves. The designers worked through multiple versions to get it perfect, and it shows in the smooth and consistent action you get.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal\" data-aawp-product-asin=\"B0F3GWXLTS\" data-aawp-product-id=\"235596\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"tec02e-20\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Nintendo Switch 2 System\">\n<div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n<p>            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41A6+lQ6KSL._SL160_.jpg\" alt=\"Nintendo Switch 2 System\"\/><\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n<p>            Nintendo Switch 2 System        <\/p>\n<div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n<ul>\n<li>The next evolution of Nintendo Switch<\/li>\n<li>One system, three play modes: TV, Tabletop, and Handheld<\/li>\n<li>Larger, vivid, 7.9\u201d LCD touch screen with support for HDR and up to 120 fps<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/22004310\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-1.jpg\" alt=\"Jankbu Sliding-Screen Modular Cyberdeck\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>\nThe base is a full-depth mechanical keyboard that is extremely comfortable to type on even after several hours of use. Large grab grips on the sides make it simple to move this thing about your desk. One side has bespoke scroll controls laid out in both directions, while the other has a trackball made from a Logitech Trackman Marble component that they hacked together. Buttons on the screen have a very simple arrangement, much like the industrial panels you see all the time, so you can get to what you need quickly without having to navigate menus.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/22004316\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-2.jpg\" alt=\"Jankbu Sliding-Screen Modular Cyberdeck\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>This device runs on NP-F batteries, which are also used in camcorders. There\u2019s no need to shut down to change them out, and you get a live voltage display right on the front so you can know how much runtime you have left at a look. The entire power module simply slides in and connects via the rail system, allowing for quick replacement in the field. Modularity is an important aspect of how this device is put together, since the entire chassis is lined with NATO rails, allowing you to clip on or clip off modules without getting out the tools. They also carry power and data connections, so the bits you add on communicate directly with the main board. Long story short, it\u2019s incredibly simple to add more storage or switch in alternative sensors or ports depending on the job.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/22004320\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-3.jpg\" alt=\"Jankbu Sliding-Screen Modular Cyberdeck\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>The printed parts are constructed of a particular form of polycarbonate combined with chopped up carbon fiber strands. It\u2019s good enough to leave in a hot car without becoming soft and losing its shape, and it provides the stiffness required for a genuine chunky-feeling build. Some of the high-stress components, such as the handles and trackball housing, were machined from blocks of aluminum to provide additional strength where it is needed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.techeblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/22004323\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-4.jpg\" alt=\"Jankbu Sliding-Screen Modular Cyberdeck\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\"\/><br \/>Project files are available on GitHub for anyone who wants to look at the design, print their own parts, or simply experiment with it to see if it works for them. There\u2019s still a lot of work to do on the finishing touches, but as it stands, this device functions as a functional, repairable computer that is entirely yours. Every aspect demonstrates how intelligent choices can transform a Raspberry Pi into something that is ready for serious work, rather than just a flashy display.<br \/><span>[Source]<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> Jankbu Skips the Laptop Aisle and Builds a Sliding-Screen Cyberdeck That Actually Works in the Shop<br \/>\n<br \/>#Jankbu #Skips #Laptop #Aisle #Builds #SlidingScreen #Cyberdeck #Works #Shop<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Makers often look for computing devices that fit their daily routines rather than forcing routines&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11144,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[8916,3522,4691,8915,531,8918,6490,8917,1057],"class_list":["post-11143","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tech","tag-aisle","tag-builds","tag-cyberdeck","tag-jankbu","tag-laptop","tag-shop","tag-skips","tag-slidingscreen","tag-works"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck.jpg",1280,853,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-300x200.jpg",300,200,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-768x512.jpg",640,427,true],"large":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-1024x682.jpg",640,426,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck.jpg",1280,853,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck.jpg",1280,853,false],"covernews-featured":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-1024x682.jpg",1024,682,true],"covernews-medium":["https:\/\/news678.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/jankbu-sliding-screen-modular-cyberdeck-540x340.jpg",540,340,true]},"author_info":{"display_name":"admin","author_link":"https:\/\/news678.top\/?author=1"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/news678.top\/?cat=8\" rel=\"category\">Tech<\/a>","tag_info":"Tech","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11143"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11143\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/11144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11143"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news678.top\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
