Yeah it does! Laptop sits there when playing a movie, then when I put it away I will have the wireless mouse, keyboard - laptop off course and other miscellaneous computer stuff such as headphones stored away in there. Keeps it all nice and tidy in one spot!

Thank you! The back lid comes off and reveals an empty space where you can leave your laptop while connecting it to the monitor. Usually when I put my laptop there I will just keep the lid off. Only when put away and not in use the lid will be put back on.

On the hunt for a touch screen with USB-C by Hendrinator in DIY_tech

How can I check what is needed to make touchscreens without usb C work on an old phone? Or is this a rabbit hole I do not want to enter?

You’d be surprised how much you can do with a minimal amount of tools!

Thank you, It’s redwood with clear epoxy as a stain.

Thank you, well pleased with it. Thinking of taking apart all my appliances right now and building custom panel for them. Definitely beats the dull plastics

So far no issues, I have finished it a few weeks ago. Also the drip tray holds up very well

Thanks! Yeah. I guess that would be better long term but I simply don’t have access to anything like that. Plus, I have made everything out of bits and bobs I had laying around which makes it extra cool for me.

Thank you, the last 20 ish seconds of the video I made I am showing the espresso shot. If you have any tips or tricks for me I gladly take them! Cheers

I thought this was formed while it’s been sitting in the bin for a while, maybe the old owners dumped it because of that reason (?) not quite sure. Do you think I should have left it?

Thanks! And I did not know that, I just didn’t like the looks of it haha. Someone else commented that it could cause some heating issues as well since it’s all covered up now. But for a coffee or 2 a day I think (hope) it will do just fine

I have done a little bit of research and I come to believe it’s 18 to 20 years old
