    And I'm off with the third res

    I really like this project, because I can easily switch between styles. Well, this one is going to be WAY different than the last one It all started with printing the designed pieces:



    Stuck these pieces to a sheet of 6mm plexi:



    Drilled the small holes, cut and filed the large holes:



    I already cut some small pieces, these are 3mm thick. They are transparent, but the protection foil makes em look blue. Blue won't really fit this res



    After that, I needed two pieces of tube, with a diameter of 30 and 80mm. These have to have exactly the same length.



    With this piece, my jigsaw wasn't working properly so I cut wrong:





    And I tried to fix it



    Before I start glueing the pieces together, I drilled and tappen the mounting holes. Not an original way to mount them, because I used this way before. But I've got a lot of ideas on new mounting brackets, so I will makes those some day



    After that I glued together the first two pieces, and for now the last two First I have to make some more parts.



    This is some nice plexi, 20mm thick



    Drawing out the parts. These will become the hose connections:



    And after a little while, these were cut. My jigsaw is having some problems with the plexi and I overheated the blade several times



    Now those cubes are still square, they're quite easy to drill. I drilled this in 1 time using a 12mm drill at 950rpm. It's quite scary to see the forces that are used to drill at that diameter



    The hardest part had yet to come, I had to make these cubes fitting. First I sanded them down useing the round part of my belt sander:



    These parts will be glued to the round side of the tube, so to give them the same shape as the 80mm tube I'm using a trick a friend of mine showed me once:



    After sanding, they look like this



    Unfortunately one of the pieces was sanded too small, so I have to remake that one. After that, I will glue them to the outer tube. Then I will tap the 12mm holes to a G1/4" thread. I ordered the tap at school, so I hope it will be here soon. Stay tuned for the rest of the ideas on this res, I am really not done yet
