Some teasers for the next update as I know it's taking a while.
The art of polishing Lexan to transparency. No ugly saw marks or scratches. This was accomplished without a torch. Hand-sanded. (Please ignore the masking tape as it's there to protect the facing until it's installed in the case.)
And the first glimpse into how the Zero-G Chamber will fit behind the side panel. The mirror backing was removed for this shot as I was going over the galaxy cut with a fine grit to smoothen it some and round some corners that looked a little "flat" to me.
The floating drives will be in view through the galaxy image as the mirror becomes transparent when lit from behind.
Next update should be on Saturday / Sunday and will involve *crossing fingers* a finished Zero-G Chamber that's ready for paint. If all goes well, I presume this will be the last and final revision to it.
I am, however, waiting on a certain part to come in that is needed, so if it doesn't get here tomorrow (I expect that it will) then it may be early next week before it's finished.
