Nephasth:
I'm going to have to get me one of them fancy printers someday...

The build is looking great so far (as per typical for an Ond build)! The speaker grills are an awesome touch!

You and me both! For now I can print simple stuff at work.

I'm hoping the finished result looks better than just a back glass image on it's own. :cheers:
I'm still learning how to design for 3D printing, those parts started off in 3D studio MAX:
I convert exported OBJ files online to STL files and then open STLs in Cura for slicing and saving out the gcode file for printing:
I spent part of the day today fixing my compressor after the regulator broke, I went out, bought, and fitted a new one. I spray painted just the back box insert after filling small gaps and imperfections - primer coat 2 of 3! The 3D printed letters will get painted first before gluing them down, but I've positioned them here just to see how they look.

Heh, yeah it started out like that. I mean, it's not my main job, but it is fun working where I've been a customer for years. I tell my co-workers I'm there because I need beer money. Some customers are morons, but at least I can buy parts I need at about half price! :cheers:
