Just in time for Halloween, Ben makes a see-through Portal shirt based off the classic game. He also hacks up and wires the LCD for the Xbox 360 laptop.
Ben brainstorms how to make the Portal shirt, then collects the parts to make it happen and makes sure they'll run off a portable battery pack.
Ben rips apart an LCD monitor and modifies it for use with the Xbox 360 Slim laptop.
With help from his friend Brad Swanson, Ben installs the portal components into a white shirt. With help from Ben's portable wortkbench, can they get the camera and LCD lined up and working in time?
