There's two projects in the pipe line, I've just been so busy over the summer racing. It kinda puts a drain on the funds but now it's winter so the projects should start.

I'm liking the Borg build, and catching up with other project logs, lots has been going on

Started on the Tubing work.
The bottom section of the Cosmos II is packed


Every system needs a good drain IMO !


Ok, need a Sanity check here guys.
Created about 1/3rd of the cubes (total over 600) and placed them randomly (well as random as posible) on the foam design.
Everywhere there are 2 or more identical cubes I can place wiring, piping and leds and such. The insid of the foam will also be walled up with the cubes.




The sides will also be "Cubed"


PS: Thnk for the inspiration Bill ! That soundproofing material rally kicked it off !

So after a full week of non-internet connected fun on a snowboard its back to business !!
Yesterday was my birthday also and as usual I always ask new tools for my workshop.

So I got this nice sawtable for my birthday. Actually its called a tile cutter and you would use it for cutting up bathroom and kitchen tiles. But because its a full flat blade instead of a tooth blade its extremely suitable for cutting up pvc and plastics as its doesnt bite into the material. Also a small watertray underneath the blade reduces the dust and cools the blade so the plastics wont melt. I have about 600 more cubes to make for the BORG so I am very happy with it !






Its always a good sign once you get to the painting part of the build. This is a quick shot after an afternoon of sanding, sprayputty and spraycans


Got a couple of days of holiday left so hope to make some real progress!

Ok here is the first update of the small mod marathon !

I wanted to have several levels in the BORG cube fangrill panel so I cut out the right depth with a dremel


After glueing all the mesh down I started with the ever so important first row.


Wood glue is always the best when working with different types of plastic as it wont melt your work. I am glueing PVC with aluminum mesh with Polystyrene.


Then cleaning its up with a cotton tip. Its gonna be airbrushed but the wood glue dries transparantly also.


Laying out the design before I commit to it. This makes sure the design flows right.


Damn, I need to make more cubes ...

It's a great idea to play with those little blocks to shape the exterior, but I think I would've taken balsa or foamy stuff instead to reduce the overall weight.

Yeah, its not light stuff.
I have learned from the eurisko that foam or depron is not the best stuff if you want to preserve the build. The slightest bump or fingernail leaves a mark that you remain forever.
Taking it to a lan party is very difficult then.

Taking a large 40kg case to a LAN-party is difficult aswell
