Title: my 7 0f 9 phaser
Post by: jimilee on February 10, 2013, 10:05:40 PM
This is a 7 of 9 phaser I picket up on BYOC housed and tweaked it. I added a 500k reverse audio knob and a script block switch,sounds really good. The finish is what I like to call Antiqueing whereby you mess up the finish and then sand the crap out of it. It worked,my daughter asked if it was really old, I said yes it is.

Looks sweet man! I love the graphic and the "antiqued" finish looks legit! I like that this forum can appreciate projects from all sources of DIY glory!

Haha, I've used that technique more than once! First time after accidentally dropping an enclosure, sanding it halfway and then realising it looked really cool.  8)

Tidy!!! Nice.
I too like the aged look. Well done!
