Title: Little P (just winging it)
Post by: ZoolSnes on July 15, 2011, 08:36:07 pm

Hey everyone this is my first post here and also my first project.

I am currently building a bartop but there's a difference. I have absolutely NO plans, I am literally winging it. Why? I thought it would be fun and make it a bit more unique also.. because I can. I am also not using any power tools, it is all done by hand.

I hope that you guys won't hate me Hah.

Pictures to come soon.

No power tools, eh? That'll be a right nice trick. Hand drilling all the button and joystick holes could get tricky..

But definitely post pics!

Hmm ya hand sawing a t molding groove would be quite the trick.

Okay guys and girls,I got some work done today.

Here are a two pictures of it so far. I apologise to the quality I had to use a DS camera as my Ex has the good one Lol.
Also sorry for the mess in the background, my work area is outside, and I did not want it outside for obvious reasons.

EDIT: I made the control panel a bit to big, but it is really comfortable, also the back is Larger than normal because I am planning this to be a transformers bartop, so I will be using my Optimus Prime Speakers
