DIY LoZ Sheikah Slate

Thought it's about time I shared the birthday gift I made for my bestie @tsukinoshinjiu! It's a custom Sheikah Slate! So I'm gonna share how I made it... (finished images at the bottom!)

First I started by looking at in-game references for it and getting a general feel of what it looks like, what pieces I'd need, and what the general shape would be like. I wanted it to be a special box of sorts, so they could hide little treasures or letters...

After getting the general feel of the colors and shapes I'd need as well as what would be sunken and what would pop out, I looked for some measurements I could base myself off of. Luckily I found a Reddit post of someone who'd already done the hard work for me.

I tweaked the sizes slightly (namely putting them in a measurement system I could actually understand) then opened up SketchUp to model it out and simulate my rough idea.

I really wanted to stay true to the rounded corners, so I went for a layered technique, using 3 mm wooden slates.

So I created a "base" piece, a "body" piece, and a "lid" piece. In the end, it ended up being 5 body pieces, 1 base, and 1 lid. (And no, I didn't have access to 6 mm wood, otherwise, I'd simply done 2 6mm pieces for the body instead) In total, the depth was roughly 2.2 cm

Once that was ready, I laid out a simple graphic for my cutter. In it you can see the measurements:

Height: 25,33 cm (~10 in.)

Width: 15,33 cm (6 in.)

Depth: 2.2 cm (0.8 in.)

(yes I named it 6mm, I mistyped dw about it) Once that was done, I looked at the front again and opened up Illustrator to make the vector path for the cutter. I had barely used Illustrator before so I had to learn while I was doing it *sweats* but I got it done, and here's what it looks like. I saved it as .eps (vector) so the cutter could read it.

Once that was done, all that was left was to wait for the cutter to be done with my pieces....

Then I immediately started painting and organizing! Decided to start with something small, so I chose the little triangles, I took them apart and painted each piece individually, then with some scotch tape I held them together and put them aside. Next I painted the main piece as well as the lid, body, and base. I glued the layers first then painted them, same with the rest. The handle was especially fun to do and I think it turned out especially pretty. Always working my way up to the smaller colors. Once all those pieces were painted I glued them in place.

The little lines really tested my pulse *sweats again* I don't think they're perfect, but I tried my best (the circle around the eye is especially scuffed)

Not pictured (because I forgor) I made little stops on the bottom of the lid so it could stay in place and be used as a box. I used some thick 2mm hard grey board to make 4 little rounded stops and glued them to the bottom of the lid. When I was done, I sprayed the entire thing in a shiny finisher!

The inside had a special engraving since I'd originally wanted to throw in the Korok Bookmark I'd made for them in there as a surprise, but since this gift had lagged behind for a while, the bookmark was sent ahead of time along with the other goodies I'd prepared for their bday.

Once it was all ready I threw in some other goodies inside and packaged it for the mail! They got it last week and the reaction was...

In the end, the slate arrived a little later than I had wanted, but it got there in one place and the unboxing video I got from them was priceless hehehe.

So yea, that was my adventure making a custom Sheikah Slate as a bday gift! If I eventually remake it, I'll try to make it look even closer to the original.

And if anyone would like to try their hand at making it, go ahead! If there's interest for the files I'll find a way to make them available as well.

Bye bye!

The Sheikah Slate isn't the same one from BotW! What is this? Who authorised this upgrade? Nintendo what's going on??

Got this from Zeltik's breakdown of the trailer, highly recommended.

my design for a sheikah slate phone case (sketches)

ok so i have a sheikah slate phone case that’s just a photo printed on a blank case. it’s alright as it is, but i’ve always wanted a more bulky, game accurate one. ever since played botw in 2017, i knew i would have to make it someday. this idea was only fueled by seeing the japan-exclusive official sheikah case. it’s exactly what i was looking for (aside from being super expensive and only for older models).

anyways, if you wanna use this as a reference, go ahead. i doubt anyone will since botw is already 7 years old and most attention is on the Purah Pad rn (which is a huge downgrade design-wise IMO). but for you diehard Botw fans, i hope this gives you some inspo!

also feel free to give suggestions!

We’ve all heard of the spirit in the sword, but what if there was a spirit in the sheikah slate?

Okay based on some analysis

I’m pretty sure that whatever is happening here to Link and his arm is an upgrade, similar to when the Sheikah Slate received new tower information/runes.

I’m also pretty sure whatever is happening is happening on a full version of the disk for the Fragmented Monument shrine quest. Not only is the area relatively near Faron, where the Zonai are said to have lived, but the disk also seems to use luminous stones in it’s writing (which to my knowledge is in a language unique to the disk). The whole use of luminous stones and how they’re connected to the Zonai and the dead (the champions spirits glow the same color) seem to connect the two, so it makes sense we’d see it in MummyDorf’s (TM) cave.
