    how to learn metalworking?

    My favorite places are Mcmaster.com for odds and ends. Onlinemetals.com for aluminum, copper sheet, rods and such, good prices and decent shipping. Mcmaster can be expensive on sheets and things but they have great taps and such. for plexi the best prices and quality can be found at...

    Hey man, I am the Geforce Lan 3 guy but I've never used bamboo for building furniture. The strat is a Mexican Fender strat that i added a new pick guard and replaced the knobs with chrome.

    I get the material usually from either Oakland California or Berkeley CA. My favorite stores are Macbeath in Berekeley for quality and selection and White Brothers in oakland for their student discounts and service. Some times I buy the wood wet and dry it myself but usually it is already...

    Thank very much guys. @oneil : you've got PM @cipher_nemo: This is actually a mod for a customer that I'm getting paid (a good amount) of money for. He liked the style of Yuugou so i'm using that as a base. I'm not really trying to outdo the other two as I can't really compete with...

    I'll just right in with some more tools. Sharpening Stones: These are extremely important because idealy, I'd be sharpening my chisels every half hour or so, especially given the characteristics of the wood which require sharp tools. The stones I have are a double sided diamond stone...

    Thanks very much guys, I truely appreciate it. Well, I can't lift it all together by myself. But if I take the wood off, i can lift each separately. Its friggen heavy though. I'd guess over 100lbs for the whole thing.

    Hey guys. Yes the case is complete and the final article can be found at bit-tech.net. I've held off with posting more final pictures because I am sending the case into CPU magazine and they need pictures that haven't been used before and I haven't sorted out which ones i'm sending where yet...

    Hey everyone, powder coat is here. I was only going to do teasers of the powdercoat but it looks so hot that I can't help myself. But first, I almost finished the Corsair Memory fan mod. I split the ebony piece and now I'll glue up a koa and ebony sandwich. You have to glue veneer on...

    Hey everyone, Corsair heard about my project through another forum and liked it. Also as you mentioned, they are very supportive of the modding community already and I'd also like to thank them for that. As for the powder coaters, everything is back to normal and the powder coat turned out...

    Thanks very much everyone. Suggestions? hmm not at the moment. I'm working on a new design (thinking phase) at the moment though. Despite all this, I did some work on other things (before all this happened) First off, I've been working on the wood to fix that huge mistake i told you guys...

    Thanks very much guys. The case is at powder coating right now so there isn't much to do. Actually I won't be showing the powder coated case until its release date in late March or April. Until then, I have some wood working to do and one last update on the aluminum. Here is what i did...
