maybe someone who knows him "for real" should contact him, saying that his fanbase is getting angry!

The guy might be dead for all we know, is there any next of kin here that can confirm yay or nay?

Do not think he is very dead:

That's just me. Before I killed him, I tortured him for his BYOAC login...

I keep telling you... he's dead, locked in my ~~basement~~ loft...

Maybe he built this Ark a little too well, and when he opened it back up again to tinker with some wiring, it had turned into the real Ark of the Covenant and it melted his face off? That would be pretty embarassing and righteously awesome at the same time.

I know what happened, and you'll all be surprised to learn that ...

Weird, I think I hear someone else here at this late hour. It sounds like they are headed straight for my offi

So much for those "top men", eh? Those lazy asses haven't done anything in months!

I think it's finally time to get this back on track. Unfortunately, I'm going to have to re-cut the long sides and buy an additional 80 square feet of laminate to replace what was ruined.

My biggest hurdle this week will be getting the shed cleaned out and organised so I can get to work.

Thanks for the interest, everyone!

Welcome back!

We've all set aside projects for months. Just be proud you have a project cool enough that people feel the need to badger you into coming back.

I rolled it to take it home from the distributor. This stuff can'r be rolled, even for a short time. It has a "memory" and wanted to roll back up. Made it impossible to laminate properly.

Ouch. Didn't they tell you not to do that? They should have. I wouldn't have known, but they sure as hell should have.

My fiance had never watched the indiana jones movies. We watched the first 3 over the last weekend. She has been taught.

Don't you mean the first two? You must, since there are only two in the series. Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

I enjoyed temple of doom. Not as good as the other two, but enjoyable anyway. I hear that 4th one has aliens in it or some crap.

This is probably asking the obvious, but did you try rolling in the opposite direction to work out the natural desire to bend?

Just read through this badboy and I must say, this is an awesome project!!!

Looking forward to seeing the rest.

Cheers

Ordered the replacement gold laminate today. Should have it in hand sometime next week. I'm planning on cutting new sides (long ones only) also. Looks like this thing is finally getting back on track.

Thanks for all the interest.

Feels like i have been waiting a lifetime for this to be complete

i cant wait to see this come together, im so glad that it all didnt end up on the scrap heap

One of my favorite projects on this forum.......................Bring it on

I'm only new here but I'd love to see how things are coming along with your project!

Those brass sticks have been an inspiration to me for a long time.

Glad to see this is back in action!

Wow, I almost can't believe this project is still alive! I'm glad to hear it's still going, though! I cannot wait to see what this beast looks like when it is unveiled.

AlienInferno · « **Reply #311 on:** June 23, 2011, 02:26:20 am »

I just came across this. Thanks for bumping it up. Really great idea. Love the artwork.

syph007 · « **Reply #312 on:** June 23, 2011, 01:34:24 pm »

Was it special laminate or something? Ive kept my home depot countertop laminate rolled for months and used it just fine. It does stay curved, but the force of the contact cement is more then enough to hold it and keep it on and flat.

A couple companion pieces coming soon from acmearchivesdirect:

Did you ever make any progress on this cabinet. I have fallen in love with this idea and cant wait to see more!!!

jimfath · « **Reply #316 on:** June 29, 2012, 03:53:50 am »

I have been selling people on the idea of building their own cabinet. When I try to explain that the cabinets can be whatever you want, I almost always bring up this project as an example. I hope it relaunches.

Maybe someone can make a terrible Crystal Skull themed cab to agitate the situation. It could be all "Labeouf'd" out.

swaffar · « **Reply #317 on:** June 29, 2012, 07:19:55 am »

I had completely given up on this project. Hope to see it completed.

dfmaverick · « **Reply #318 on:** June 29, 2012, 10:11:02 am »

I think we may need to wait for Indiana Jones to unearth this one in the next movie.
