Gah! ...unruly cretins!

(just joshin' ya'll)

but I s'pose I wouldn't have it any other way.

No building tonight.

Had to work late and by the time I got Home, excercised, and settled in it was too late.

Tomorrow and Friday I will work on the top veneer. It will house the fan, the fillport, power switch and the fan controllers.

It started out farily simple (see drawing in last Update post), but got a little more intricate; more time will be needed.

On Saturday I plan to work on more carbon fiber pieces.

I have been working on the veneer piece that I mentioned earlier.

The purpose of the is piece is to border the perimeters of the Fillport, Exhaust Fan, Fan controllers, and the Power Switch as a single unified piece.

If my calculations are correct the can controller knobs will be recessed by about 5mm. There will a round-over on both the inside and the outside of the top. This will ease the access to the fan control knobs, and ease the edge so that it is not so harsh. One of the main purposes of this piece is to quasi-stealth the knobs....

The following series of pics shows the original plan, what I actually cut, and then a test-fit over the top panel of the case itself.







The fillport is in the upper left-hand corner, and the power switch front-and-center.

There is a considerable amount of sanding to be done before I can take the router-bit to it. I also need to round the small nubs that are on either end of the "spars".... but I need a break from that piece...

Tomorrow is carbon fiber fabrication day.

arekiah... heh! kinda confusing, I know.

This is just a box - a single box, I wanted to give the panels some more depth the way Halcyon is, but have the added depth serve a purpose as well.

There will be more odd-looking pieces coming down the pipe, but I hope that in the end it will all come together as I imagine it in the mindscape.

Halo2Vista - Thanks for the booster. Sometimes I bet mired in what am doing and I lose sight of my goal. A little kick in the pants (read: compliment) really helps to get the moral up and the steam built-up to continue on. Thank you.

Repo! Wassup Broham. Thanks for the reminder ... evidently I need it.
Yeah... patience... it is all in the patience - and speaking from my past, it is a lesson that I need to learn.

P.S. Did you get your moola from the MoM yet?


Good question, Indy ... I could really use a 4-day weekend to do this segment. Heh... it is cause I make such a mess. Last time I almost ended up with the Cat stuck to my forehead and carbon fiber adhered to various parts of my body.

I will be more careful this time.
