Daym. Its things like this that make me wanna go nutz! Great job on the whole project, it looks very professional.
SNAAAKE:
..WOW ::).
good work with painting and the panel looks just like mine(angle cut).
1 question though...is that oak?
I mean..you did a great paint job but why paint over oak? ???
anyway..looks great! :D.sides look almost like laminate(painting skills)
Frostillicus:
wow thanks guys I really appreciate it. That was my first cab and I spent a looong time planning and a few weeks building. That planning paid off! ;D heh so did 4-H woodworking.
Snaaake - it's made out of plywood. Not cabinet finish grade, but just below. So it had some cosmetic blemishes like knots and stuff that wouldn't look good for a stained bookcase but fine if it's for painting. Really nice wood cost much more $$$$. Plus some of the knots had some filler in them, so that didn't help. I used a roller with really really fine bristles.
Still have to do some side artwork(lots of shiny black spaaace on that thing). My friend who I sold it to is trying to make up his mind on the theme. ::)
SNAAAKE:
I see...
i was like..wahhh..paint over oak(oak cost lot).
so..you sold the cab.. :o..building another? ???
or you dont play games anymore?
unfortunate though :-\(cant imagine without a cab..its like family :D)
Frostillicus:
*sniff* :'( *sniff* yeah i sold the cab when i moved, but i'm planning on building another. Better, faster, stronger(but not bigger that thing was a monster). It was very hard parting with the machine :'( I'm now working on a 2-piece design based on my last cab and 1up's rotating panels. Maybe a little less lusid, those are everywhere these days.
