randx0 Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 that is really cool.will you tell us more about the case and how you made it ? I like the use of space and how it isn't too full of stuff but still plenty of details to pull the viewer in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decsgarages Posted January 3, 2010 Author Share Posted January 3, 2010 thanks for looking and liking this dio...hows it made..I made the frame from 6mm plywoood...base and back and 2 side pieces...then glued and screwed together....built the dio inside then...the glass(real glass) is 6mm polished on two sides...then pushed up together and framed in with L shape moulding with small screws...I use real glass because it doesnt scratch when polished or dusted...

diymirage Posted January 18, 2010 Share Posted January 18, 2010 i like how it is a real mini and not one of those newfangled bmw wannabees also, i really like the smudges on the guy working on it, makes it look nice and realistic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
