Did they ever make a smaller revision of the original xbox? I don't really remember anymore. The Original xbox era went by really fast in retrospect.

No, the original Xbox only has one carcass model.
A Xbox slim version was made by a fan project though: http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=661555 .
