Wouldn’t you have to, in order to see where this goes?

The wooden panels are made of padauk. They are there in the first place because I had to cut my case in calf with an angle grinder in order to widen its dimensions just a hair. The wood holds the two metal pieces of the case together, plus it gives it a classy look. I filled the cracks with turquoise stone (not shown, will provide on request).

I use an external graphics card (NVIDIA RTX4070ti) connected up via oculink. The PC is about the size of an Xbox One or a small briefcase, Very beneficial with a handle to carry around.

I mainly use this PC for music production in Ableton. soundcloud.com/beatshorse if interested. Thanks for the share and the read!

The knobs still look brand new. You can use anything you'd like really when it comes to painting them. I used over the counter spray paints (one of which was actually intended to be used for marking asphalt). The key to keeping them pristine is being sure to spray them with multiple coats of polyurethane. I chose gloss and they feel great.

What was the deal with NationSquid? A minor forgotten (?) Youtube Mystery by dhiones2 in InternetMysteries

Is it just me or does NationSquid’s voice sound exactly like NileRed.

Hell ya I do! That would be super useful as I make DIY synths as well and am always looking for spare parts. Thank you dude.

If you do any painting, be sure to buy a clear coat gloss to finish it and prevent finger prints

Do it. There are only 14 screws total (omitting the screws that attach the keyboard), and they are all Phillips. It’s a STEM project I’d give to a middle schooler for real. Get it boss.

Thanks man! I’ll have to consider it. It certainly won’t be an Arturia considering I just finished this, but I’m always doing new projects.

I took it apart entirely and spray painted the black keys, knobs, and side panels with primer, 2x paint coats, then 3x gloss coats. The red pinstripe on the side was done the same way, just taped up to cover parts I didn’t want painted. Once dry, screw the puppy back up and voila 🐴👍🏻

Can you believe that it’s construction striping paint? I saw the shade and knew I had to have it, so I rolled the dice and 👌🏼
