zebulon Posted December 29, 2013 Posted December 29, 2013 Well, having been back and forth on selling the empty build I started 2 years ago, I've decided to carry on. I think my half baked paint job cries out for only one solution.....A Steampunk Build...... Here's what I'm starting with... I'm still in the planning stages, but I can show you a teaser that I pulled off my cnc yesterday.... Which became this today.... One thing I do know...the siderails, lockdown bar and legs are coming off and will be replaced with some custom machined wooden replacements, I'll keep the metal bits for a rebuild I'll do on a Stellar Wars I have...one day... I'm sure this will be a marathon build..... I know so much about so little that I could teach you everything there is to know about nothing....
neohusky Posted December 29, 2013 Posted December 29, 2013 This looks sweet! I noticed a contactor in on of those photos. If your going the forcefeedback route: There's a guy in Canada near you that sells some sweet electronic feedback kits. That is of course assuming you won't be running this on steam Good luck with the build! To know, is to know that you know nothing. That is the meaning of true knowledge.
Agrajag Posted December 29, 2013 Posted December 29, 2013 That's some damn fine CNC work, sir! Surely the siderails etc need to be brass though for the full steampunk effect?

zebulon Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 Thanks Neo...I thought about going with that guy's stuff but I hear he's an ass. At those prices he'll probably go broke before long anyway..... Thanks Agrajag...there's still a lot more for me to learn about cnc'ing than the little that I know at this point. Not a steep learning curve, just an expensive one... I'll be doing 3d relief on the siderails and lockbar but they'll be getting a brass/copper treatment I'm sure. I know so much about so little that I could teach you everything there is to know about nothing....

zebulon Posted December 30, 2013 Author Posted December 30, 2013 Thanks guys, I'm sure it's going to be a slow build.....as always, it will be a matter of time and money... I know so much about so little that I could teach you everything there is to know about nothing....
neohusky Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 Rome wasn't built in a day either To know, is to know that you know nothing. That is the meaning of true knowledge.
zebulon Posted December 31, 2013 Author Posted December 31, 2013 I guess but it burnt down pretty damn quick... Luckily there's absolutely no rush to get this done... I know so much about so little that I could teach you everything there is to know about nothing....
