Loki's cab design.
<< < (4/7) > >>
Loki:
I made some CP concepts... but I'm not sure what to do with the classic CP... is it nice to have two 4-way joysticks? and how many buttons go with the spinner and 4-way?... anything else that is nice to add to it?
NiteWalker:
Kudos for not doing a frankenpanel. The 7 button configuration looks good. I don't play many of the classics before 84' so I can't recommend anything good on the classic cp design.

That's fine if you're sticking to a simple cab design, not so much if you've got something more complex in mind. The time spent doing CAD work can do things beyond designing the  cab, like helping you create a materials and cut lists, and laying all the pieces out on 4x8 sheets to minimize the waste materials. It can also point out problem areas that need special attention so you don't build yourself into a corner and have to change things once you've got all the parts cut out.

Thanks. :)
Yeah, I like the idea of a CP with everything on it but they are so damn wide.
I don't like it when the CP sticks out of it.

My first attempt to make some side art... I made the red lightning transparent, would be damn cool to light it up :p
Not sure if that would be easy to make but oh well... :P
Loki:
Have been designing a bit today... still the same basic shape but this time with a bit different CP and some cut out sides.
This will be damn hard to make I think, also due to my lack of woodwork skills but I like a challenge  :P

Would be nice with the chrome T-molding on the white :)
