Nice work, callen. I have no idea where the design is going at this point, but you're doing some great work on the routing table and have some creative ideas. I like. :)

This is so A.W.E.S.O.M.E.

Black and blue builds are always great! One of the most detailed worklogs I've ever seen :)

And great workshop :D

I'm keen lol but i'll need Mick and Xion's consent first! hell throw in shazza and bec too for a better b2g ratio and we'll be good to go. In fact, i'll send charles and ian a msg too... actually scratch that, a case like that would be dangerous :ROTF: (i feel corny)

Just a quick update to give you an idea of where this is heading. No explanations are really needed so just pics this time, and
not too many either :up:.

If your not sure what's going on or why i'm showing something, just keep going down and it should become clear (hopefully).

Only 7 more to go.

(Sorry, I guess there were a few more pics than i thought :shrug:)

I know everything looks pretty rough at the moment, but once fab work is finished everything's gonna be sanded, polished, cleaned and dusted :)

Thanks for checking in guys,

Callen, I did lose all my words after your second update here and now I literally have nothing to say, so freaking cool :eek:

Excellent work Callen.
I really like the way you have routered a 45 degree edges around the parts that wrap around the mobo. :up:
Your right it does make it look smoother and blends in much nicer, excellent touch mate, looking forward to seeing more. :up:

Please remember.
"Snug" is good, it's a very good word and you can never have to much "Snug" or say it to much,(well ok, maybe outside of a fabricating workshop that would be a bit strange to keep saying, so are you feeling snug today) :yepp:

On the other hand.
Gap, Oh crap and Damm it! are not good, no matter where you are. :rofl:

Don't forget Nils. Then we'll take over the world, yo. :cool:

I'll even break out the Ninja Gloves (TM) for the task.

Two things are clear from this thread. 1) callen has some skill, and 2) I need a routing table.

wanna see what's rough ???
dude I had to jigsaw in my up-coming son's bedroom, and I had to work in my 87-year grand-pa's garage (have no bench vise)...
I really wouldn't mind your "rough" way of doing it :D

It's really nice to watch a man who know what he wants, and know what he is doing, and where he is going. Go for it m8! A.W.E.S.O.M.E x 2

Like muki | sk.4um said, you know what you want, so go for it. God damn, your precision is killing me. This connection of alu and plexi is astonishing. Subbed

Just.... wow
So nice to see a guy that uses ALOT of pictures, and with it an amazing skill with the router and other tools. Im guessing you are using lexan? (thats what we call "unbreakable" plexi glass here in Norway)
Anyway, keep doing what you do. Its awesome!

Thanks mate, you don't have to say anything, you could pop up with a blank message and it'd still be appreciated :)

I agree and i'm really happy with how it turned out. It was difficult and time consuming but i'm quite pleased with the results lol, so thanks mate :). And no, i'm not feeling too snug today, saw Lupe Fiasco last night then hit up the city, oh the joys of being young :toast2: :sick:

Everybody's welcome :) but you'll have to provide ninja gloves for all :p:. And you should definitely get a routing table, you should ALL get a routing table lol

Haha sucks to be you, joking joking, but by rough i mean the acrylic looks crappy because it still has the protective layer on it, the aluminum is scratched and need to be sanded/polished and the mild-steel needs a good sand down too. I just didn't want people thinking it would be left like it is, not that it's a big deal anyway :)

Alot is probably an understatement :p: i really need to tone it down a little! The acrylic i'm using is just called acrylic here but i think the one your referring to is perspex, which is much stronger. It's also much more prone to scratches which is why i stuck with regular acrylic.

Thanks for the complement too Viking.
