Slimline Spike'ish Design, finally almost ready to proceed.
« on: August 30, 2013, 01:15:28 pm »
Having spent lots of time trying to design the perfect multi-williams panel, I have now decided to go with swappable panels instead. This is a great relief as it free's me up to build lots of panels without having to try for perfection.

I will build my Defender panel first and use it on my kitchen table to finalise the dimensions of my cabinet, but I think I'm pretty close already.

Here is my kitchen set-up, and my cabinet design.

The control panel sticks out quite a long way, that's because I like the screen 30" from my face. The panel folds down to save space when not in use.

On forums jimmer speaks for himself as a Defender fan, not as proprietor of www.jbgaming.co.uk  << Is that advertising or disclosure ? or both ?

If kids are going to be all over this you might want to add some weight to the base?
Id hate to think what damage it will do to the cabinet / monitor should it fall.

( it would also be a good lesson for the child to give respect to equipment )
