Glad to see that you are working on this again. I can't wait to see more.
It seems pretty hit & miss if I get worklog update notifications, which is why I haven't been posting much.
I like the filing machine idea, good thinking +rep, should save some effort :), gotta say I'm keen on making something similar thinking of its potential uses, and wow, a key switch power on, can't say I've seen that done before, adds a nice security feature to it too, no need for a login :).
About you treating the front piece as a prototype, sounds like a good plan if like you said were having various problems with it.
Woo hoo more!
Actually some kind of exciting progress for me. Been working on the heatsink for the front. (Gee that sounds
familiar)
So I took my Mark Hardware Filing Machine 2000 and put a saw blade back in it.
BAM instant table saw! This was literally exactly what I needed to cut this plastic right.
(Action shot!)
Also, it worked fantastically to cut some of the unwanted material off this heatsink.
An after shot;
Now let me say this! I do not advise doing this. It just doesn't seem like the safest thing. I mean, it may just be my opinion, but it seems like a great way to lose a finger. My wife concurs with me.
Everytime I use it. Also, I don't want to get sued by any 9 fingered modders cause I gave them the idea. My wife concurs with me on that, too.
Anyway I'm also have been removing some material to mount the red lcd screen. I'm not too worried about having it as a temperature readout, I just like the red screen.
So here is what its looking like.....
Me likey!!!
Coming along! I want to see this finished!
you, me, and my wife lol
Hahaha, the wife must be thrilled about all the shavings everywhere; and the lack of a husband being around. Hahaha, like the mod so far. ^_^

OK, so just an fyi gonna be kinda quiet for another couple weeks. Waiting on Tax Claus to come around so I can get lots of goodies.
For some reason I seem to love my kids a little more this month :rolleyes:

I haven't forgotten, I'm just still waiting on money to come in :D
