Thank you!!



Update:

Started on the keyboard modification. Cut some pieces...


I took what I had left, and had to use two differnet kinds of walnut for this one. But I'm sure they'll blend together when I put some stain on it later.


So, this was going to be a challange in terms of delicate modding. Did some accurate milling.


This is the design idea. One keyboard and one storage unit(for remote controllers and mouse) These will be snapped together with hidden magnets.


This is one of four very complex corners


The slim Logitech keyboard can't be disassembled, whitch sadly means that I can't make any surgery on on/off buttons etc. I simply had to make holes for USB charging and on/off button.


Then I realized I'd milled the USB socket on the wrong side :sigh: Well, I had to fix that.




After that, I made some drilling for those hidden magnets, mirrored on each unit.


Ang glue them together.



I aslo started making the speakers. Pieces cut.


Holes for the elements


Oh yeah, it's that 3.5 angle again. Mmmmm...


Guts.


Assembled fronts.



Front mounted inside. Going to add some silencing material in there later.



Finally, I received the slim mouse which I'm going to make into something woody later


:)

Beautiful wood AND metal work, great to see another project using real timbers, I'm envious of your access to high quality tools.

Stellar work!  :cheers:
