[QUOTE="montecristo, post: 493346, member: 75971"] hi guys, i made a quick, simple layout of how it should look like. you kinda have to use your imagination. :) it's a little diffirent than the first design i had in mind. first i wanted to make it a little more curved. but that was'nt going to be easy to build as i don't have all the neccesary tools and equipment. and it would also have been to thick. this design will be 7cm deep (without wall brackets). with wall brackets it will be aprox. 9 cm. don't you think that's a bit to deep to hang on the wall? i can also put it on a pedestal. there is no layout yet of the backside but that will be basically all perforated plate. should i build this? or should a build a more conventional design? a conventional design is easyer to put it next the other equipment in the cabinet. i actually don't really have the place to hang it on the wall (:wtf::eek:) but i still like this, as it is more a design feature. and the only thing you see is a display on the front panel. i can also replace that frontplate with a plexi (the kind they use to cover VFD and LCD panels). then you don't see the VFD except when it is in use, and then i can alos try to add some moodlights behind the plexi. please let me know what you think of this design (before i start building). don't hesitate to give any comments , tips or advice. please see the layout in the attachement.
