Disaster two

The next problems I had were with the screen. I had to position the screen in such a way that an SD card would reach the SD slot fromt the outside of my base. However the walls of the base were too thick for this to work. I thought about using some kind of extension but couldnt find one. My only option was to change to using a USB stick. This would work as the screen could be placed anywhere and an extension could be placed inside the base walls, allowing the user to insert a usb from the outside.

In the process of trying this out I managed to break my screen. I had trouble finding another suitable one within budget. One arrived but didn't play the video files i needed it to, another didn't reconise when a usb was inserted, and finally one used a lamp instead of LED's as the backlight and for some reason wouldn't work with the sensor in the same way. i finally found one that I put together using backlights from my previous broken screens.
