Nvts’s mountain’s Jukebox (revealed!)

<< < (2/18) > >>

Nvts:
The first layer is done, and seems like it would hold just fine. I have some carpet tacks though, might as well make sure it will hold.


I routered the skin off


Trimmed the edges smooth, sanded the sides.  All ready for the second layer.



I had a bunch of trouble getting all four corners covered this time. Is there a trick to getting the thing lined up straight?  I had troubles on both layers, but more on the second layer. It’s on though.

I ended up having a 1/4 inch space on one corner that I slapped a little wood filler on, though I shouldn't need it.




Can't wait to start with the infamous front panel tomorrow.   :D

mountain:
Cool! Another link to send to my Dad ;)

Looking forward to watching you build this thing. Of course  :pics would make it much easier to track

Nvts:
yeah, I will, it's just that I took my external DVD player to someones house and I take my pictures on my DVD camcorder.  So far though, they look exactly like the two built before me, except a bit less polished  :cheers:

Nvts:

Tonight's work.  Trim off the second side skin to show the finished shell



Make the front panel.  (just like making the front and back frames, so no pics)


Used my square to make quick lines and gutted out the frame


rough cut the front and back panels off


Then I cut a board for the motherboard to mount on to.

Pictures tomorrow.  really. :banghead:  I can't believe I own four computers, and they are all too old to have a dvd drive.

I do have a issue perhaps.  My bit lost the bearing, and chewed a little bit of the edge away.  It looks huge in the picture, but its actually really tiny.  Think it will affect anything?


Nvts:
Updated my posts now that I have pics.  Adding in some computer gut shots.
