Finished wood tower for my PC/Stereo... PIC INSIDE
 

Nothing too fancy, but I'm really happy w/ the results... My PC fits into the bottom orange compartment... I need to add a little bit of sound proofing yet, but otherwise the thing is complete. Here's the cost breakdown for it...

3 pine laminated panels 6' x ~1' x ~1' + wood stain + masonite (orange cover) -- $50... Plastic feet, poplar molding (really makes it look cool ;) $10... So not bad for $60 and it's customized just the way I want it... I didn't have to cut the shelf panels myself -- they did that free at the hardware store.

Good work!

Acoustically thats speaker blasphemy.

Carpentry wise, excellent!

;)

Can you hear it from there? You must have good ears... hehe...

Wow. been awhile since I saw an authentic log cabin! :thumbsup

Nice work Fly =)

That's a pretty sweet idea!

:thumbsup

What the hell makes you think that ?

I see two walls, one with paneling and one with sheetrock.
It does have a nice rustic look but it aint no log cabin.

Ok ok ok.. But the chair is not comfy.

Hahaha.

Agreed. The chair must be replaced. Make that TOP priority Fly !

Nice job...I wish I had room for something like that.

Very nice! Watch out for overheating though if you're shutting your tower in a closed compartment.

Nice! The chair must be a retro thing...

looks cool
but wont the tower get hot being locked up in that little area?
I know Dwarves like EEEpisDik might find it comfy
but you are a man of stature i hear
:1orglaugh

woodwork from a real carpenter always looks good. I had a cabinet built to house my big screen tv. Custom work is usually much better than buying something pre-made.

unless you got some OUTSTANDING Fans, or Water Cooling, your tower is going to get hot as fuck..... :thumbsup

awesome job

The front panel has holes in it -- and the back is entirely exposed to the wall... I'm not trying to seal off the air -- just trying to absorb most of the sound.

Anyway Sleazy that is some cool shit... One thing I haven't tried yet that sounds interesting is cutting w/ a waterjet... I've read a lot about this -- you can design some plans for your project in a 3D program... then just send off the shapes to the waterjet company -- you tell them what material you want (waterjet cuts anything!) -- metal, plastic, wood, etc... and they cut it out and ship it to you... then it's up to you to piece it all together. With wood though you can't cut very intricate pieces because of the obvious problems you will have with wood and water together. I'm getting ideas right now! Back to the drawing board hehe...
