An alternate version of my animatic for The Owl House main titles. It was rejected because they thought the POV change was confusing.

How to repair Wacom Intuos 4 USB port

The wacom Intuos 4 is known for having issues with poorly attached mini-USB ports, and my tablet (Intuos 4 Large) finally broke down completely, as explained here wacom wanted hundreds of dollars to fix it.

Being a total newbie and never having soldered anything in my life I still managed to fix it for free. Instead of using the USB-connector I chose to bypass it completely and instead hard-wire the USB cables directly to the circuit board. This is a small guide for how to do that:

What you need: Soldering iron and solder. Tiny screw driver Plastic card (like a credit card) Wire cutter. (or anything to cut an USB wire) Glue.

How to do it: - Screw open the wacom tablet. Remember the screws under the rubber feet. - There are internal plastic clips located by the buttons. Use your plastic card to disengage them. Be careful not to snag any wires.

- Remove the back cover of the tablet. Find the broken USB port you want to bypass. - Cut the USB connector off your USB cable, we won’t be needing it. - Strip the wire to expose 4 smaller wires inside it. One red, green, black and white. - Strip a tiny bit of the smaller wires to expose the metal inside them. I melted away the plastic - Put some solder on the end of each wire and then solder them exactly like this diagram shows.

The circuit board of course have a lot of different stuff on it, chips, transistors and whatnot. But in this image I just drew the important ones that we will work with. Make sure you do not short circuit by using too much solder or having exposed metal from the wires touching each other.

- Glue the large USB wire to the plastic of the wacom tablet. - Screw it back together.

Done and done!

Update: Do you have a Medium or Small tablet? In that case solder like this:

I have a PTK-540WL and the port broke after a bit, but the board where the USB port goes is quite different since it's pretty much a smaller board that goes to the main tablet board lol, and that one's also quite different, man I really wonder why it is so different than the standard Intuos 4 models

Unfortunately we weren't successful keeping the tablet alive, but for a brief moment it worked just okay while plugged with the hardwired cables before stopping for good, you might be successful, or not, but this was maybe the closest option for bringing it back to life: Basically have to solder the cables just like...

BLACK - GROUND

RED - TP3

WHITE - TP1

GREEN - TP2

While we tried it on this one board, you might be able to solder it on the main, largest circuit board of the tablet, and you might find success were we didn't, so good luck!

I didn't get to find anything relating fixing this specific tablet model, so I hope this helps to someone who may have the same problem and can't or don't want necessarily to buy another tablet, it feels sturdy, and it sure feels good to work on it!

Sonic drawn with markers. 🦔

A bit late for Sonic's 34th anniversary, right? Done with Chameleon pens.

I'm not really a Sonic fan although I have enjoyed some of his games. I don't think I have drawn him before, so it was difficult to make his spikes look right. Got @ldranzer's help to draw him right!

[ldranzer]

Quite fun to make Sonics for/with friends!

Batch of doodles as of late

[ldranzer]

After quite a bit, but here's this year's Animation Reel, got the chance to do a bunch of projects I'm still excited about, and let's hope for more! I'm available for work NOW! https://ldranzer.carrd.co
