    I have been doing quite a few mods for other people over the last few years and they tend to end up here there and everywhere. Chances are that you might just stumble upon my work on various forums and blogs around the place.

    However, there is no chance that you will stumble upon all of my work unless you are my friend on facebook and since thats a pretty restrictive medium, I have decided to post my work here, in this thread, for all to see.

    So every now and then I will post what I have done with photos and videos from youtube, I come to bittech often even if I dont post that much, I am more of an observer.

    I have no problems answering questions or offering advice in relation to how I do certain things so feel free to ask :)


    The Navig Station

    This was a small bit made for an EVGA motherboard for a Mod originally started by Navig. The mod has enough room for five LED's to light up the motherboard. A fun little job which comprised of a 10mm thick acrylic component and a few 3mm plexi pieces.



    Tube Reducers

    [​IMG]
    I recently did some tube reducers for a modder in Australia and I was fine with my first attempt but thought I could do better.

    This ended up being the final product :p




    This is the youtube video of both those mods, be sure to check it out!

    Until then, peace :)

    I was approached by a Swedish modder to do some panel work. Fairly straight forward and alot of fun :)

    Its really surprising to see how much an extra 1.5mm will do. I usually do panels in 3mm but the 4.5mm one was really quite a sight. The cut took an hour with the pocket engrave running a 10000rpm 1000mm/min run through the acrylic.

    Any progress on the cads? Also can you make the psi covers or should I just buy them? Laser cutters finally got back to me but now waiting on the invoice to pay them (thought giving them money would be the fast bit lol) so shouldnt be too long and Itll be ready for you. Also wheres your factory located?

    Ok. I think the factorys in the outskirts a bit. Might not even need to. Can you mill one end at a time. So do the triangle with the square sticking out the side and the vice versa?

    anywhere near Staplyton QLD, 4207? I can get it delivered there for free or nearly free but will have to organise getting it to you. If you can actually do it that is.

    Hey mate, where do you usually get your acryllic from? And how much is it roughly?

    Also where do you get your metal too?

    Ta.

    Last time I heard he gets small pieces and coloured pieces from gammods (prices on website). Larger pieces he gets from a different supplier who only supplies to trade and prices would vary but its fairly cheap.

    There are several acrylic suppliers in Brisbane and several metal suppliers too. I often use mulfords plastics for acrylic and langfords metal industry for aluminium.
