Won't you get stripes when you paint? That kind of worries me... Although it's expensive, laminate or vinyl sounds like the best option I guess. Anyway, I don't really know a lot about it :S I'd love to see some tutorials appearing here ^^ Ah... now that I think about it, painting it with an air compressor would be an option too, I have one here with the paint tool... Better ask my dad about it later ^^; Ideas ideas... I thought I figured it all out and new stuff keeps adding. :dizzy: |

You keeping your project outside, even though it's covered? That will spell DOOM for your project regardless of what you use. morning dew will get everything inside and out wet and eventually it will show on wood/paint and corrosion on the metal parts. As for Painting the cab I think it is just cheapest and what people know and feel most confortable with. I used laminate and it was a first for me so I was a little apprehensive but just followed the direction and it came out great. Best thing you only have to wait about 30minutes after applying the laminate before you can start cutting/screwing/whatever it workable, no waiting for a second coat. One downside for laminate a router is a MUST, without one don't even bother. Using laminate also gives it that authenticate arcade feel, which I think everyone is looking for. Here's my cab... |
