SketchUp MNPCTech Sketchup Case Design Competition 3

Awesome entries guys! They all look great!

(I do find myself particularly amused at the Crank DVD Xtra!)

 

Thanks John

It's gonna sit on 4 legs. Even though they won't be very high, the whole thing will be about 1cm off the ground, which is enough to get some grip and pick it up as a whole. It's not likely to be a very light thing mind you, so a handle would require a lot of extra structure to make sure you dont just rip it open
I'll likely build a travelcase to go with it, i'm going to visit a lot of LANs with it

Hehe, well i needed a DVD label to drive home the point that it's a DVD, and not a fan or a round ornament of some kind. Plus, Crank is awesome

 

I'm loving this design, what do you think the components are made off? Is that wood, plastic or alu? I can see the acrylic, but what about the rest?

 

logan'srun, thanks, most of it is made of wood, there are some small parts that are in alu though.

 

I like everything I see but the Crank DVD.

 

Sheesh. I put 60 hours into a model, and all i get comments about is the stupid crank DVD

i still lub you though cheaps

 

Lol, don't listen to Cheaps. Crank is an awesome movie. Has Jason Statham made a bad movie, I think not!

 

Wrong!

Can't say I like how you want to solder the riser cards to the back of the board Xtra, but otherwise - looks cool!

 

Oooh that movie does look bad on an epic scale...
I'd also like to add that i hated Crank 2. It took the delicious lunacy from Crank to such stupid levels that it ceased to work.

And about the risercards, i have moved the soldering to plan B actually. Plan A is now to just get really long risercards (yes they do exist).

 

I think I'll have to drop out... have been under a ton of work lately, maybe I'll finish it and post it later. But for sure won't be done by the deadline... Sorry mates. Good luck to all still in.

Oh hell, you got me there... I had banished that from my memory.
