This symbol on top sound familiar

after almost burn my face after 3 hour boing ball dremell,had to eat 2 sandwich (bifanas) and 2 beer (superbock) to regain strenght

rampartsagain · 01 June 2012, 19:36

that boing ball going to be perfectized as soon as can ,today that is enough too many dust in the air

johnim · 01 June 2012, 20:15

great so far mate

Retrofan · 01 June 2012, 20:56

That ball is the touch it needed, perfect. But now you'll have to make a good paint job to all the case, and taking attention to the ball.

rampartsagain · 02 June 2012, 08:58

thanks for the coments

in 3 axis printer would be very fast by hand is other story in the afternoon i will do some retouches and plan to isolate metal for further paint job ,amiga pimp my tower.
i will add more on top c (commodore logo) and plan to add the other side in big poweredby amiga but can´t find a high resolution picture for use as base on my printer

by the way if any portuguese amiga fan near porto city knows anybody perfect on electrostatic paint i would appreciate pm to me

I am going

lesta_smsc · 02 June 2012, 15:36

This would definately be an idea to make 'customised' Amiga cases - if they don't already exist to this spectacular form!

BTW are you using Bodoni font?

rampartsagain · 02 June 2012, 15:43

thank you . love you all amiga fans that support me,means much to me and gives me strenght to carry on my project

many thanks.

kind regards to uk ,spanish,and portuguese that comment till now

It is GARAMOND ITALIC

AMIGA

Retrofan · 02 June 2012, 16:50

I've just told you by PM, but some blue light from inside, or red for the ball would be nice through the cuttings.
You could put perspex inside http://www.ebay.es/itm/Colour-Perspe...item76c1bd56a9 and some light inside like this or other http://www.ebay.com/itm/251075829796...492024&vxp=mtr

You are demonstrating we don't need a Commodore case for this.

rampartsagain · 02 June 2012, 17:48

well ddni infact was bodoni font

i replyed retrofan ,i will, like i said this is just a little bit of what is, in my obscure mind

rampartsagain · 02 June 2012, 18:55

went to local chinese store to look for the right tools but just hardware,seems it will have to leave til monday on leroy merlin for buying the heavy artillery.
meanwhile i will relax hearing some nirvana music and stuff and AEB of course
