@@yetzt Clickbait title would mean the title dosen't represent the content of the video. Framework sent me a failed laptop, I framed it. Exactly like the title describes. "Clickable" not clickbait.
Lol currently waiting on a maxed-out AMD FW 13. Saw the title and got this sinking feeling in my stomach. Happy to see this video wasn't an exposé on failing Frameworks, but rather a really cool DIY art project. Intentional or not, props for your 10/10 clickbait skills. The FrameworkFrame looks amazing.
@@ElevatedSystems Fair enough! Meant it to be tongue-in-cheek, rather than as a criticism. I did not feel misled, rather surprised and delighted. It is a cool project, and the end result is impressive.
This is great, I used to work at a compute/phone repair shop and we printed pictures of disassembled phones and had those on the wall. Something like this would've been really cool. This is a great way to celebrate repairability
I do hope Framework also get a way to sell old components. It could be an interesting way for people to get a Framework laptop fairly cheap. It is rare to have everything unusable at the same time. Chassis could very much be used for many years if one can still fit all the components in it and one doesn't care about visual damage. I could also see people who rather have the 16 inch over 13 inch and thereby sell their old laptops whenever they get the new one.
@@ElevatedSystems I did mean people who has bought Framework laptops and components can sell their used ones (like you can on eBay but dedicated made for Framework). But it is definitely also an option to save money by getting refurbished.
Everything is better with LEDs :) When this video started, I was like "what, he changed his mind about framework?" At the end, I am amazed at the product and especially at the idea of actually using the QA failed parts for something nice.
Never knew how tedious making a shadow box could be. Also, that stay in hospital must have been one hell of a ride because you look much thinner post-opt. Glad you're better now.
The title of this video should be "DIY Laptop Components Frame" or something like that. I have a Framework Laptop and never had an issue since I bought it two years ago. Nice project though.
I'd love to just give every video a simple title but time and again the RUclips audience proves with super low CTR that unless the title envokes some emotion, they won't click it. Vanilla title equals no views on a video I spent many hours and alot of money making. Atleast I do my best to keep my stupid 😲 out of the thumbnail.
This was super cool to watch. I don't know that I have the budget currently to buy something like this as I imagine ~$1000 to be a fair price. If that were closer to $750 or even $500, I'd be much more likely to buy. As a side note, it'd be nice if you could find some way to reduce the glare on the glass of the shadow box.
@@ElevatedSystems Maybe another change if you do end up selling multiple of these ☺️ That and I saw someone else comment about the LEDs not diffusing as much as they had hoped which I think I also echo Either way, major props again, this was a treat to watch
I have a BS in Electronics and Computer Engineering and an MS in IT Systems Engineering. Everything else is self-taught. Interestingly I got my degrees while I was in the Army and never actually worked in the IT field professionally. I was in the Medical field for most of my Army career.
Nice project CJ. You are an engineer artist. Just like there’s history of tech, why not have art too. (My 16 is getting ready in the first batch. Can’t wait.) Hope you’re recovering well, any operation is a shock to the system. I thoroughly enjoy all the content you come up with. Probably on similar wavelengths or something 😂
If Framework truly has very many unusable components, they could frame them and sell them as part of some charity auction. Better possibility people would pay for such art in a charity auction than flat out buying it. I would think it is rare for people to want to do this given they rarely have everything not working and they'll just replace the specific part instead of "throwing the whole laptop away". Then possible people could collect the broken components until they have a full collection, lol. But I think they would likely just put it in electronics trash where some of the material could perhaps be reused.
I'd buy one, but I don't like the way the LEDs light up the inside. If I were buying one of building one for myself, I'd personally want them to look more diffused so you don't see bright polka dots everywhere.
As far as my calculation goes the price-point for an assembled frame as presented is towards $950 US (without shipping) at a framework component price of $400. Realistically I can see people buying this for $ 750 US as a manufactured art piece, but that seems unfeasible as a standalone hand assembly 1of1 kind of thing. Maybe introduce a DIY version with most of the parts (frame, components, back-print) without lights, large back-plate and acrylic glass to save package size. Also: I would try to find a commercially available frame somewhere. I could see how a narrower, exposed setup adds a topographic 3D element to it. Or also sell the back-print as a poster with printed images of the components . There are a few more ideas but you get the idea.
I'd buy this if you sold it. I don't have a broken framework... or any framework. I'm waiting on my framework 16 preorder. I'm in batch 7 because I missed the launch of the preorders.
This is very cool. Small suggestion - personally, I'd like it if there were also LED strips below the edges of the raised components (e.g. lid panel, mainboard, etc.)
I'd get one. Normally I'd want to sell my 11th Gen once I move to something newer, but it would be really cool to display it as a historical piece, start of a new PC line and all that.
This is neat, nice work. I am one of the many that found your content through your Framework videos. Nice departure from your regular videos, and wish you the best.
I always wanted to do it for many things I have (I have a Intel 1st and 2nd gen i5 parts to do that for now), but stuff like my PSP went missing (which I could repurpose) sadly. I bought eWaste systems like a Thinkpad X280 because I loaned my Framework to a relative. Recently I bought a ThinkCentre M93p Tiny with a BGA CPU soldered to an LGA socket to play around as an hackintosh project while recycling any spare computer components I have at home.
I would absolutely buy something like that and furthermore if you were willing and if I had a dead enough laptop I would actually send it to you to have this made out of parts that I personally used with all of the wear characteristics involved. My current framework 13 still works like it did on day one so I'm not anywhere near thinking about that now. But if enough parts on it died and needed replacing, I probably would consider doing this with it and buying a new one just to keep the sentimental value that my first generation framework has
I would really love to have it! That will be amaizing... the problem is the price... One question did you paid something for the laptop, they have this option to buy unusable laptops? Or you just contacted them?
I have a Framework but folks do need to be careful they dont end up pumping 5 times what they would over say 4 years than they would with buying a normal laptop. The risk of getting carried away.
I still don’t understand. This laptop came to you with everything broken?? It wasn’t just the screen that did not work? Doesn’t give me much faith in the company, hope they sent you a new one
I couldn't tell from the video -- why did Framework send you all bad parts? Was it on purpose or by your request? And why would anyone want to build a shadowbox for a broken computer? I couldn't figure that out.
@@ElevatedSystems I'd rather we had laws in this country that made all consumer products and packaging recyclable. I'm not saying repurposing is bad. I'm genuinely curious why someone would want a shadowbox of any old electronics device.
@@csells99to me it’s not any old electronics device. the framework is kinda revolutionary in a way since it’s the first laptop to really accomplish this much user-repairability and modularity. their mission is great.
Why does anyone want anything, (art, photos, plant, sculptures, shelving) on their walls? Are your walls barren of any decor? I also explained in the video that in some cases recycling electronics is actually more environmentally or economically harmful than not.
@@csells99 Some people find beauty in the fine engineering of these products! Often a lot of time is put into both the function and form of these items, and this can be showcased in a display like this. I keep around a broken Vega 64 for that reason, it's a unique looking piece of electronic engineering, and speaks to a specific time in consumer electronics history, in a similar way that this laptop does.
Just to clarify, I did reach out to Framework for the parts, and they were nice enought to gather and send them.
so you could make this clickbait title.
@@yetzt Clickbait title would mean the title dosen't represent the content of the video. Framework sent me a failed laptop, I framed it. Exactly like the title describes. "Clickable" not clickbait.
can anyone do this? i’m just wondering since this is such a cool idea and it might be something I want to try in the future
Yeah are Framework selling damaged parts? Or is it just because you have connections? I wouldn't mind getting some things at a discount to repair
@@adez13 No they don't sell damaged parts.

I would absolutely buy this. A great way to repurpose dead/defective parts. Fantastic work and have a speedy recovery.
That was a refreshing break from watching somebody build yet another computer. I'm always impressed by how creative you are.
Maybe a high quality photo poster print would also be something nice, budget friendly and easier to mass produce.
not a way to repurpose the broken parts though
There aren't many home decor items I'd get sentimental about, but this would be one of them. Absolutely would be interested in this!

They sell refurbished laptops and some components, and have slashed the prices on first gen mainboards.

It would be cool if Frameworks included posters that look like this, with the laptop you buy.
Great vid !!! Glad your doing good after your surgery. ! WELCOME BACK :) :)
I need a few of these around my shop !
I like to think the ‘fourth R’ is Repair! I want “Reduce, Reuse, Repair, Recycle” to catch on, because it truly should be that way. ♻️
Could be the 5th R

You could use antiglare glass, it's only slightly more expensive. However, my local Michael's and Home Depot didn't have any in stock.
@@ElevatedSystems Maybe another change if you do end up selling multiple of these ☺️

This is a great way to re-purpose otherwise e-wasted parts
Excellent work and great job on the presentation too. I love doing stuff like this and you really did the Framework justice!
Hey! That frame works. 😉
Id say ~$600 would be a good price point
he just said that only the wood frame would cost $400
I'd buy one for $500-$600aud, $1k aud at most tho....
Looks so cool, you did a great job! Cant wait to get access to a workshop when I go to uni!
This is awesome! I've been wanting to do this exact thing with all of my old pc parts and phones.
Oh you have pre-ordered the 16 inch. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about it.

Pretty nice framedwork.
At the bottom you should've written Framedwork 13"
I'd easily drop up to a grand for one of these. Especially if there was a plug version of the lighting instead of battery.
The lights can be powed by a USB cable also.
Super cool!
