DJ TV Display - Part 4

Session summary - spent a few hours this morning and expended a fair bit of energy - then gave up

Each side will have four large 125mm holes down the middle. This gives the unit that funky DJ look, reduces weight (each quite heavy) and provides convenient hand holes.

Here we are setting up the drill guide to drill pilot holes with the bit depth set for two and a half panels.

DJ TV Display - Part 3

Completed the second side, that is the right side in 1/3 the time it took to do the first side - the left side.

Ready for the next stage of the build each side will have four large holes.

DJ TV Display - Part 2

After a good start with Philip Tyme on Saturday I am back on this job cos for the last two days got dragged away doing other stuff.

Doing some planning before we start. This Torx wood screw is just the right length and I have a dog food tin full of them.

DJ TV Display - Part 1

Doing a job for Philip Tyme to make a integrated display TV unit for DJ gigs.

For the Bunnings plywood we both had to ring around, see the picture further down the page.

Nothing out his way and in my side the only one was Notting Hill so off yesterday morning in the Camry to buy 3 x 1200 x 600 x 18mm @ $35 per sheet. Loaded nicely across the back seat. We are using this picture that Philip found on the net.

MSCD Reception Sign - Part 3

While the morning sun is about masked off the internal frame tray and spray painted matt white.

As usual used the spray paint carousel. Thisis early afternoon and that won't take long to dry so I'll soon be able to continue the job.

MSCD Reception Sign - Part 2

With some concepts in mind started making the internal frame.

Doing a fitting before glue-up. The backboard here is the actual picture frame back flipped over. When dry it's removed along the 'masking' sticky tape so the frames don't stick together cos of excess glue, then turned over ready for the next stage.
