i dont like the design, the white is ugly and not much space for the hands ;)

but i build myself an external CP too, i needed something like
a sitdown cab control panel. With all the material and hours
spent working $200 is nothing....

anyway, here you can see my cp:

Ghosty.

Your CP better than that one on CL in so many ways.  Yours has style, the bottom is clearly closed in, the legs look cool, etc, etc, etc...



The most I could see paying for that CL cp is about $100 and that's if the parts are all like new, high quality and the encoder is a GGG or Ultimarc product.  I built my 2 desk/lap top cp boxes with all new parts for less than $100 including shipping.  I hope to maybe sell mine when I am ready to move on, but I think that the quality of build makes a big difference.  That thing seriously looks like a bookshelf from a Target or Walmart, with some holes drilled into it and some chunks of 2x4 t-nut and wing-bolted to it for "adjustabiltiy".  I see the merits of what the builder was attempting, I just don't see the $200 USED product value.

Wish I could bill my labor costs out at $100+ an hour.  :dizzy:
