Scarring Your Psyche

Quote:
I am modifying the tech station I just made with a custom front panel featuring some UV acrylic and a lotta fretsaw work... Below is how the station started off. ![]() ![]() ![]() And what follows is the work involved in the front panel. ![]() I removed this panel with the PA160 floating in ti (friction fit) ![]() And made a composite panel of 1/4" clear, 1/8" UV orange and 1/8" black. ![]() I made a template to route out a perfect 120mmm fan hole and drill the holes... ![]() The idea is to get the UV orange to show through the black by having at the black with a fretsaw for a few hours... ![]() Check out this programmable POV fan from Cooljag. Not cheap...you can program the fan via USB to display just about anything you want. ![]() I temporarily mounted the comnposite panel to have a look at this fan. ![]() There is a tiny PCB that spins around and lights up a sequence of LEDs to spell out phrases and display images through POV (persistence of Vision) technology. ![]() I will post up some short vids in a bit. A camera does not captuire the effect... ![]() I dialed in the panel once I had the edges dressed a bit better and it was firmly bolted to the angles. ![]() I used a 45 bit to reveal some of the orange beneath the black to make a ring around the fan hole. ![]() I used some tribal flame patterns I found to inspire me. ![]() Once I had a rough sketch I folded the paper and used a light box to trace something simlar on the other half. ![]() I didn't want to get too "50's Hotrod" with the scalloped flames and went for more of a tribal free style look. ![]() This is closer to what I will be cutting out but I will use it just as a rough guide. ![]() I then drilled holes for the fretsaw blade in all the areas I want to remove. ![]() This is going to take a while.... ![]() The start of a long afternoon.... ![]() About an hour later (I guiess). More in a bit.

Scarring Your Psyche
![]() |
Hey guys I got zapped by lightning twioce this evening. Second time it burned my ass pretty good...I was working at the saw there and a wicked sotrm rolled over and when a bolt struck in the woods I got a strong zap on my hand where it was resting on the saw table...I was like Hmmmmm what are the chances of that happening again. So I kept working and a fgew seconds later a huge strike right beside the shop I could see the light from the bolt through the window like a flash camera went off and the next thing I know I am staggering backwards...my ass feels like it's on fire and my whole upper body is hurting like I got nailed by a bag of oranges.
I apparently knocked over my drill as I was flailing about. Anyhoo I sat on the wood bench as far from anything metal as I could until the storm finished...then I went back to work. I got the front panel pretty much done...it looks wicked. And it has some lightning bolt still in it so look out! I'll post up pics as soon as I finish this beer... To entertain you in the meanwhile a short vid of a POV fan.
