I'd still like to at least rebuild it inside the brick case). Does anyone
know if there is a way to get these things open without ruining them? I've
pushed and poked and prodded with no luck.
Your best bet is to just cut it open since its already fried. The chance
of it being filled with epoxy is good. The chance of opening it without
making it look like Frankenbrick is 0% or less.
Check thrift stores around you regularly. One is bound to pop up. Also,
middle and elementary school garage sales would be a good source. You
should never have to pay more than $5 for a //c power supply.
